Up County Down - Van Morrison - MP3 instrumental karaoke

The release of Van Morrison's 42nd studio album Latest Record Project, Volume 1 in 2021 marked the Northern Irish folk legend's return to the UK Top 10, bowing at Number 5. Described as the most enjoyable music the artist has produced in years, the record acted as a testament to the singer's longevity in the music business but it also sparked some controversies due to its borderline conspiracy theory content and alt-right themes on tracks like "They Own the Media" and "Why Are You on Facebook?" Despite facing backlash from certain media outlets, the album was not without its uplifting moments. One of those moments was the country-soul groove "Up County Down," which finds the singer's baritone register as sharp as ever, reflecting on his numerous travels throughout the globe, even dropping a reference to the time The Doors opened for his band Them at the Whisky a Go-Go. "Up County Down" was released as a split single alongside "Where Have All The Rebels Gone?"
