They found fame with their song There's No-One As Irish As Barack Obamabut now the Corrigan Brothers have turned their thoughts to Government economic policy with their latest single The Nama Song.

To the tune of Games People Play, the song speaks of developers gone bust, the Fianna Fáil tent and buying hot tubs with the proceeds of SSIAs.

The chorus runs: "Na na na na nama, na na na na nama, its gonna be you and me, that's gonna pay".

The video has been posted on YouTube, but it might not attract the five million hits that the brothers from Tipperary got when their song about Mr Obama became an online hit.

In January they were invited to perform during the the presidential inauguration, and they have appeared on chat shows in the US, Europe and the UK to sing the song.
