Would the Undertones make it onto your Derry's Greatest Hits album?

Would the Undertones make it onto your Derry's Greatest Hits album?

Derry has long been regarded as a city of song and we want you to tell us your favourite songs to have come from the city.

You have any number of artists to choose from - the only criteria is that they come from Derry.

So if you think Nadine Coyle, or Josef Locke, D:Ream or the Undertones is best, then let us know below.

Or maybe Dana, Baltimore or Phil Coulter or one of the great Derry bands currently lighting up the local scene that you think is better than the rest.

You can tell us your favourite song or tell us what songs you think would make it onto an album made up of only songs from Derry.

We will whittle down the most popular choices and then let you vote on what you think are Derry’s greatest hits.

We look forward to hearing what songs you think best reflect the city of Culture’s rich musical heritage....

Buachaill ón Éirne (Come By The Hills) - Damian McGinty (Celtic Thunder). "Come by the hills to the land where life is a song..." A beautiful song from a beautiful Derryman about a beautiful place.

Phil Coulter - The Town I loved So Well. As someone who moved away from Derry at age 18, and has lived in America for 26 years, it reminds me of the good times and the bad times of growing up in Derry. The song is set in the first 18, formative, years of my life, '57 to '75.
