Irish music fans excited as Beyoncé announces track featuring nod to Ireland

Irish music fans have reacted with excitement as the track list for Beyoncé's upcoming album appears to feature a song with an Irish connection. 

The American singing legend is set to drop her latest album Cowboy Carter tomorrow (March 29), with the track list shared online ahead of the big day. 

The list of songs - shared on X by Columbia Records - appears to feature 27 tracks, with titles including Blackbird, American Requiem, and Amen. 

The song piquing Irish people's interest is a song titled 'Riverdance', which has sent many social media users speculating. 

One X user stated, "Everyone tweeting about beyoncé naming a track 'riverdance' should bear in my mind that I split my chin open the second out of three times trying to imitate that art form on a linoleum kitchen floor…" 

Another commented, "Riverdance?? Beyoncé doing Riverdance?? Like Irish Riverdance????? I would like to see it." 

Beyoncé's new pivot to country music has brought her massive success, as her catchy hit 'Texas Hold 'Em' hit the top of the Billboard Hot 100 in the United States.
