Thinking about it now, even without cameras and Twitter and Instagram at our finger tips, phones have been distracting us for years! The observation was first chronicled by great philosopher of our time Richie Kavanagh who, through his timely ballad My Girlfriend Has a Mobile Phone, got men the country over shaking their fists at whoever gave their partner the opportunity to gab with their friends on the go.
We can't believe it's taken this long but the saga of the poor man who only wants a kiss has been updated for the day and age of internet access and selfies.
The Carlow man's latest number, My Girlfriend Has a New iPhone', has an accompanying video that's odd, but strangely endearing. A for effort, Richie. We'd still take it over Jedward.
