I agree with you. I.was very lucky as I had great Irish teachers at school.I spent my teens in a gaetacht (Irish speaking region) also my aunt spoke to in Irish.
The Irish language is worth learning if you can. I got enough to read some short stories and translate some song lyrics. I found it to be pure poetry...no wonder why they are such great artists!
It is. I only have what i got in my school days but when you think in irish it is a very good language. The english language can become the boundary of your concepts so easily and the concepts in irish are very different. Little things like you dont say i am sad you say sad is on me. And even on me in me at me are one word so me isnt seperated from the action. Little things like that just tickle me for some reason. Im sure many languages are the same but since i learne dirish young i can somehow think in it ..even though i can say very little and dont know many words. The pattern of it somehow got into my brain somehwere deep.
i love they way the words sound, kind of like they float on the wind, soft, light and fitting perfectly together. gaelic is a beautiful language and celtic woman does a wonderful job with this song.
I love everything about tthis group . Love all of their songs. These women are angels. Whenever I feel depressed or upsessed I come here and listen to Celtic Women. They always bring me back. Thank you to whover posted these videos. !!!
I just got the new Destiny DVD and CD combo. Maev is the only singer on it that was one of the original girls. Of course the little violinist is there too. Meav does this song on the DVD.
I'm Hispanic, I don't understand what's she is singing about, besides by reading the comments posted, but it doesn't make a difference, this is BEAUTIFUL MUSIC. I can't stop listening to this song. That,s what I love about music, there are no language barriers, anyone can enjoy special music such as this one....
Someone asked wether Máiréad's fiddle is baroque or not, but the comment is too old to answer, so I'll do it here - yes, it is. It's a Matthias Alban fiddle. As for Méav's performance - aMéaving as always!
@ImaginaryNightshade Singing along to music - no matter if you comprehend the language, or sound anywhere near as good as the original singers - is a human right. Don't ever stop.
I love Méav. Méav, Órla and Máiréad are my favorite members of the group. They are both angels from heaven. I could listen to Meav and Orla sing all day everyday. I love how both Meav and Orla are so into what they are singing and how they both bring so much energy to the stage. I love watching Meav and Orla perform because to me they always make me happy. Meav and Orla both have voices of angels. I think that Meav, Orla, and Máiréad are the prettiest and most talented of the group.
The greatest Artists, Poets, and Warriors the world has ever known! May Heaven watch over those of the Blessed Western Isle! Celtic Woman is nothing short of therapy! You just feel GOOD afterwords.
I have watched your shows on TV some 6 years ago and I have got hooked to your music.. you people are just amazing.. and god like in your creation.. keep up the good work and spread happiness through your work.. may god bless you..
Ich liebes dieses Lied absolut cool kann ich nur sagen mag diese art von Musik eh sehr gerne aber das hat mich wirklich beeindruckt das Lied weiß nich warum aber es hat was erhabenes.
i love when the blond with no shoes runs out of no where and fiddles to her hearts content!!!!! love it!!! i wish i could have seen them in concert!!! they make me smile!!!
I got the chance to see these ladies at the Academy of Music in Philadelphia a few years back...best concert that I ever saw NOT related to Phil Collins or Genesis! great song
That/s Ray Fean, who is still with Celtic Woman's touring band. He has a true dream gig: he travels the world with a bunch of beautiful women, doing something he loves.
I've noticed that too. There's always one like that in every group. Trust me I'm a vocalist and we have one like that in our own singing group. Personally I'm the Lisa Kelly in our group.
I love this song, its so catchy! Haha, at the end, one of the back up singers (a girl) is looking at Meav but the way the lighting is on her makes her look like she's angry and glaring.
I'm Welsh and listening to this language makes me really proud of my heritage. It's a shame that more people don't speak Gaelic today.
I agree with you. I.was very lucky as I had great Irish teachers at school.I spent my teens in a gaetacht (Irish speaking region) also my aunt spoke to in Irish.
Without a doubt, Meav was one of the best vocalists ever to sing as Celtic Woman.
Silver Sea album was excellent.
Yess!
She doesn't have to sing very loud but she knows how to make her voice echo and speak volumes.
Oh yes !
FLAWLESS!!!
I'm obsessed with this video. I can't stop watching. That Celtic Woman is unbelievably beautiful.
The Irish language is worth learning if you can. I got enough to read some short stories and translate some song lyrics. I found it to be pure poetry...no wonder why they are such great artists!

Please elaborate. What's poetic about it?
I love how mairead just hops around. I would be tripping all over my feet! Such talent!
AND SUDDENLY! an angel comes bouncing out playing the violin!
This is a beautiful song and it makes me proud to be of Celtic descent
Meav sings like an angel !!
Yeah
i love they way the words sound, kind of like they float on the wind, soft, light and fitting perfectly together. gaelic is a beautiful language and celtic woman does a wonderful job with this song.
I miss Meav's presence in Celtic Woman; it isn't the same without her.
She's now a creative consultant with Celtic Woman so in a way she's back
if i could choose a favorite celtic woman song, this would be it.
I have been loking for a live vid since... FOREVER!
I love everything about tthis group . Love all of their songs. These women are angels. Whenever I feel depressed or upsessed I come here and listen to Celtic Women. They
always bring me back. Thank you to whover posted these videos. !!!
The opening is so unusual. Just Meav, the drums, and then the chorus. Very interesting. I love the way she tells the story with her beautiful voice.
I just got the new Destiny DVD and CD combo. Maev is the only singer on it that was one of the original girls. Of course the little violinist is there too. Meav does this song on the DVD.
Yeah I do love her voice too Barbara
You look nice Barbara if I may ask where are you chatting From
I love singing to this song!!
What a voice of an angel.
I'm Hispanic, I don't understand what's she is singing about, besides by reading the comments posted, but it doesn't make a difference, this is BEAUTIFUL MUSIC. I can't stop listening to this song.

I. LOVE. GAELIC.
Such a unique language
Méav is the best at singing the Gaelic songs i think.
Someone asked wether Máiréad's fiddle is baroque or not, but the comment is too old to answer, so I'll do it here - yes, it is. It's a Matthias Alban fiddle.
As for Méav's performance - aMéaving as always!
She also plays in baroque style, you can also tell by her bowhold, that's the "baroque" bow hold.
@ImaginaryNightshade Singing along to music - no matter if you comprehend the language, or sound anywhere near as good as the original singers - is a human right. Don't ever stop.
Love you Meav. You are, always have been, and always will be, my favorite number one celtic woman
Antonio luiz Garcia sobrinho o

This song never gets old for me.

I am Irish. We call the language Irish. I love this song.
Beautiful! LUV IT! She's speaking the long lost language of Gaelic! So pretty!
I love Méav. Méav, Órla and Máiréad are my favorite members of the group. They are both angels from heaven. I could listen to Meav and Orla sing all day everyday.

These women are so talented it's really not fair. I just love listening to them so much.
The greatest Artists, Poets, and Warriors the world has ever known! May Heaven watch over those of the Blessed Western Isle! Celtic Woman is nothing short of therapy! You just feel GOOD afterwords.
Yes, Gaelic. I think it's beautiful!
Intothemystical your comment was so funny I can't stop laughing, what a visual it gave me in my head! I love this song!!
This is just terrific and I love the merry enthusiasm that Ray Fean adds to this performance as well.
Sooo beautiful!
I have watched your shows on TV some 6 years ago and I have got hooked to your music.. you people are just amazing.. and god like in your creation.. keep up the good work and spread happiness through your work.. may god bless you..

Wonderful show these ladies put on. Left the place with my feet about 2 feet off the ground. They really lift you up with their voices.

i wish i could have seen them in concert!!!
they make me smile!!!
I love this song
its so much fun to listen to these over and over again until i get it right... at least when im singing with her/them =)
I've been looking for this song
I love songs with such a rhythmic feel... makes me feel like I can do some kind of a dreary task... forever...
(probably the original intent)
Lisa Kelly just flat blows smoke
I don't think anyone can touch her right now , she is the bomb
Incredible,,,,Thanks Ireland!
What an Angelic voice!! Wish I could speak the language! Will be buying this video for sure!
I lover her dress! the song is awesome as well even tho i don't understand, her voice is really cool
meav is gorgeous!!
I really like the dynamics of this song. The rich full sound of the drums and the choir then down to the hushed vocals, very nice.
Celtic music is so beautiful, I wish I could learn it!
It doesn't get any better than this when it comes to upbeat gaelic!
