Baltimore puts on ‘Happy’ face in YouTube hit

If ever there was an example of dancing the blues away, this is it. The West Cork village of Baltimore has gone viral courtesy of a YouTube video showing locals bopping to Happy by Pharrell Williams.

The video was recorded the Sunday after the last big storm which knocked out electricity across much of the south of the country, and was uploaded on February 21.

In the days since it has clocked up more than 9,000 views and has been retweeted around the world.
