Is this 17-year-old schoolboy really Dean Martin reincarnated?

We really are wondering...

Carrying the can for the Rat Pack generation, Tyrone teenager Daire O'Hagan said he really doesn't know where his voice came from.

And for that matter, neither do his parents.

The A-Level student told Belfast Live he has "always loved singing" since he was "very young".

And as for his obsession with everything 50s, he just doesn't know.

 'My Rifle, my Pony and Me'

"No one knows where it came from," he said.

"I just started listening to Frank Sinatra and Dean Martin when I was younger. I just love everything about the 50s."

The suave young man said he even likes to dress in the style of the day.

"I do try and wear that style," he added.

"If I could look like that every day, I would. I love that era."

Turning heads with his Facebook  videos of tunes from back in the day, the young man said he has won fans all across the globe.

But keen to bring the sounds of the 50s to a new generation, he said he was most surprised when people his own age later downloaded the song he uploaded on Dean Martin's birthday.

"Lots of people just came up to me and were saying they loved it," said Daire.

"Some even bought the first song - My Rifle, my Pony and Me - on Spotify."

First performed by Dean Martin and Ricky Nelson, the song featured in the classic movie Rio Bravo in 1959.

Keen to honour his idol, he said the dead star's 100th birthday gave him the boost he needed.

'Sway'

"I was always going to do it and never had the nerve," he said.

"It was Dean Martin's 100th birthday so I just did it."


Now Daire's version of the song has been watched more than 44,000 times, and his rendition of Dean Martin classic Sway isn't far behind it.

The talented youngster says he uses any excuse to get a song into the day, but between singing, acting and playing saxophone in Coalisland Silver Band and Portadown Big Band - he said he hasn't much time for anything else.

The St Patrick's Academy lad is even due to tread The Mac boards this summer as Rooster in the hit musical Annie.
