10/1 for certain. 18/1 was an extremely unusual price back then. 10/1 much more logical and sounds like that anyway when Shane sings. Someone at the record company who knows nothing about betting just misheard it and put the wrong lyric.

And undoubtedly the greatest xmas song.

Heard it on classic fm and thought ah That’s where the pogues lifted that tune from |

Being an American race, Shane hadn't stipulated he wanted the show price of 18/1 so Hills settled it at their industry odds of 10/1 after it had won with a bit in hand. I think this is where the confusion lies because he clearly says 18/1.

Watched a documentary the other night, `The Making Of Fairytale`; in it, Shane`s a bit more coherent than usual, and it is unmistakably `10/1` that he sings. Beyond doubt, indisputable.
End of thread. |

is it an irish thing...........to a man they say 18 but in the uk we seem to think its 10
|
|
By:
Of course it's 10/1
|
|
By:
I listened to it tonight and for the first time I could hear eighteen......
|
|
By:
was convinced it was 10 but I think its the irish accent........now I am convinced the other way

Anybody who mistakenly believes it's 18 is a right mug.
