I'm not entirely sure how it's possible I haven't talked about CMAT yet.
But here we are, three albums into her career, and her 2025 critically acclaimed album EURO-COUNTRY is. This song - the title song from the album - was her first top 10 hit in Ireland, where she is from. It is somewhat autobiographical, opening with an Irish-language monologue that speaks to her childhood and makes a lot of Irish references.
But let's talk about the video. It was recorded in the rather large and clearly not closed Omni Park shopping in North Dublin - and you can see people have their phones out recording her in the fountain near the end of the video.
By the way - Ciara Mary-Alice Thompson. It's her initials.
I kinda glossed over the song's deep meaning, because, in this live performance, she straight up tells you it's about living through the Irish economic crisis in 2008 and beyond.
Also, she's really personable and still has a huge voice.
