One of Coulter's biggest hits, Angel of My Dreams, was met with widespread acclaim from critics and has now been sampled by Jade Thirlwall of Little Mix fame.

Rolling Stone UK described it as "A bold, unrepentant start to Jade's life as a solo star" and added how "it starts with the most distinctive distorted sample of Sandie Shaw’s ‘Puppet On A String’... "the lyrics are spicy, and while the sample seems random, the idea of being a puppet on a string perfectly fits the ethos of the song".  

In their review of the song, Billboard named Angel of My Dreams as one of the best single releases in 2024, describing it as "original and attention grabbing".  

Phil Coulter says,

“It's hard to believe I wrote this song 57 years ago and here it is back in the charts!  In the music business they say that the real test of a song's quality is Longevity! I'd say 57 years just about makes it!!! Thank you Jade!” 

Phil Coulter’s remarkable rise from modest beginnings on the streets of post-war Derry to the summit of the global charts as a composer to a host of some of the world's biggest stars and has been a towering presence on the world music stage for 60 years and remains one of Ireland’s best-loved and iconic music figures.  

In this brand new show LEGACY he takes a fresh look back into 60 years at the top of his game – so much music, so many songs, so many new stories, distilled into two hours of vintage gold.

Bringing their own special magic to the proceeding are his Special Guests George Hutton and Geraldine Branagan, proven favourites with Phil’s fans.

Phil Coulter kicks off a 31 date Nationwide Tour ending on December 31 in The Maritime Hotel in Cork.
