    I love all Irish accents . I think the the Northern one seem more harder and stereotypical of "Leprechaun" speech or whatever when you think of a little guy with a green hat. The Southern Ireland is much softer accent- like County Cork . But each has its charm


    I like Dolores O'riordon accent



    My 3rd GG was from County Tyrone, but further back I have ancestors from County Cork and Galway
