TikTok of Temple Bar webcam shows 'magical' couple singing Fairytale of New York

A Dublin TikTok of the Temple Bar webcam showing a couple singing Fairytale of New York has gone viral with viewers calling it "magical".

On a cold night, the truly Irish clip shows a man and a woman singing the Christmas classic with the caption reading: “Who needs nightclubs? Belting it out in Temple Bar”.

It seems that the pair had a good night out in the town as they performed like nobody was watching - but the Temple Bar webcam captured everything.

It’s unknown if the man and woman actually know each other but they put on a show regardless whilst the stunning Christmas lights shone in the background.

They socially distanced from each other and the woman walked away afterwards - perhaps to get herself a McDonald’s before getting a taxi home.

The video uploaded by @gerardwalshfilmmaker has received over 95,000 views and 16,800 likes.

Many viewers described it as "magical", and they hope the couple can reunite because it gave them "goosebumps".

One user commented: “If this doesn’t bring a little smile on people’s faces then I don’t know what can because what I see here is just so soulful and Irish.”

Another said: “Omg why did this make me emotional? So sweet”.

A third added: “This makes me so proud to be Irish”.
