What a pure rendition... technically perfect: not a single fret buzz, not one arpeggio missed, perfect vocal pitch and words... and artistically: I'm just incredibly moved by this performance. Only one guy and his bouzouki but the whole Ireland is in there...
I’ve listened to this 1000+ times and it gets better every time. CZcams needs to develop a way for us to praise Daiori some more. Brilliant brilliant brilliant mate
Born in the mountains of North Carolina (USA) our family would rabbit hunt in the winter. There was no greater pleasure than to see our lone Beagle give chase to the rabbit. When I hear "Creggan White Hare" at age 70 it reminds me of my childhood years and the great times of my childhood years. What a beautiful piece of folk music. I never get enough of listening to the "Creggan White Hare". Thank you Daoiri Farrell.
Greetings from Ireland. Glad to hear this song resonates with your own life in NC. Once I'm a bottle or two in, I have to play this song. It's a live performance - a snapshot in time. I don't believe he ever played it better than this, because it is nothing short of masterful. And someone was there to record it. Hallelujah!
Listened to this obsessively prior to my initial voyage to Ireland from Missouri, USA. Upon landing I spotted a hare and assumed it good luck. What a lucky token it was. The pints were sweet, the whiskey smooth and the company full of craic.
Daoiri is the only singer I've ever heard who could sneer and sing beautifully at the same time. I love the contempt as he sings about fine motor car. Lovely voice! And I love the Irish bazouki sound, it seems to be strummed like a banjo.
As a hunter myself I found myself rooting for the white hare throughout the song. Tremendous job on this one it's a shame only 4.4 million people experienced excellence
I came across this song when I lived in Berlin last Summer 2023.. As a young Irish woman living abroad, It was a gift! The following year I met Daoiri in the Traditional music course I took In Ireland. I told him this that I played his rendition all Summer in Berlin, and Asked if he would please perform "Creggan white hair" for us... A huge gift was received that day to witness this man perform this beautiful song., Go raibh míle an Fear Naofa. Daoiri! What an absolute lovely man.
Very few musicians can actually bring tears to my eyes, being a musician myself I havent heard such a beautiful sound in a long time. Glad I found this artist.
@@sailingalbatross7642 Literally had to pause the video to write this comment as I just got goosebumps lol. I really wish I could find the studio version of Pat Rainey song Daoiri recorded though. Found out I'm like 8 percent Irish too. Probably why I drink so much whiskey lol. I digress. Wish he could come to America someday!
There are few folk who wander this rock who can make their talents and trades look effortless. This young man is one of those. I just played this for my old boy and he was just in awe hes been singing folk for decades no professional more so just down the local to bring about a good atmosphere through some storytelling songs such as this one.
I love Irish folk music. It reminds me of our sweet Appalachian folk we have in the States. Same sound, same rhythm, and same topics of life being sung. It’s beautiful stuff
idk what it is with Irish music, in particular this song... it gives so many emotions, like on one hand it makes me sad and homesick even though I'm not Irish myself, and on the other hand it gives hope, warmth and a feeling of being grateful for what I have
Nothing takes you down into the lowland underbrush more than this song. I can see the fine motorcar and the long boots and wool jackets of the finely dressed men. Best of luck to the fine white hare.
I think this is a song in the great Irish tradition; against all odds the underdog wins the day. It speaks to the part of us all that feels how unfair life can be, and how uplifting it is when the little person gets a win.
The CZcams algorithm never ceases to amaze me. It feeds me the airport delayed flight vid, and then this. Over 3 million views on a channel that has 5k subscribers and hasn't released a video in 8 years. This has to be the best recording of a folk song I have ever heard, not to mention the best version of this song. Even Farrell's other recordings of the same song don't hold a candle to this one. Something so genuine about it.
How on earth does this have negative ratings? Absolutely outrageous. He is one of the most talented Irish musicians I have ever heard and I have messaged him before and he is an absolute gentleman. Absolutely love it man.
My father is from Creggan and he was a musician. It would have been his 60th birthday last weekend and I'd never heard this version until then... haven't stopped playing it since ❤️👌
@@philiplevins6702 thanks and sorry to hear about your dad. It's great how the music and musical associations (songs they played, music/artists they listened to, etc) can make you feel like they're their again/closer to them. It's a great gift

Doesn't fecking matter, British, Irish, African, Asian we all share the same drive, blood and toil. I'm an Irishman Dublin born and never have left. How dare you ask someone that question? What does it matter? Ye made an arse of yourself.
Still coming back and listening time and time again. It takes me to another place. I can envision being out in the hills. The dogs and hare running through the fog and the mist. You can almost feel it.
This man would seem to be a brilliant, brilliant musician. The control of his voice is truly such wonder, and those unusual tones, that the song is just divinity itself. A fine craftsman.
@@thebeanymac only stumbled onto daoiri music not more than 2 weeks ago, I actually stumbled upon daoiri,dan McCabe, and des Sheehan all on the same day...was a very good day... this fella doing his version of this song which I never heard by him or anyone was a as brilliant as the Hare itself.

@@dalyb7555 "As brilliant as the hare itself." Indeed. : ) I couldn't have seen Daoiri - nor many others - till just this last month myself. Many replays.

Daoiri Farrell's voice is so clear and pure. It brings to mind the clear and perfect sound of a church bell on a cold clear Sunday morning. Just about perfect.
It's St Patricks day. The pubs are closed. I can't go to Cheltenham cause we're still locked down. My guitar is lying idle and there's no-one to listen anyway. I'm happy 'cause I've just remembered that bottle of Jamesons in the cupboard. Sláinte Daoiri !
Sunday 4.22am Coffs Harbour NSW Australia state wide lockdown and this pops into my feed. Salute Jamieson! Best wishes, a potato famine 3rd generation descendant.
In this CV Pandemic, I only heard this the 1st time yesterday on RTE and I find this song, and in particular his voice , something inspirational and helps me escape from this apocalyptic scenario that is present . Thank you Daoiri and be safe everyone
Same here. I found it randomly on yt and don't know how often I've listened to it since. For me a piece of hope for the time after this pandemic. Stay save everyone... best wishes from Germany.
Seems I need to hear this once every few days. Brings tears of joy to my eyes for some reason--lovely. Thanks for the gift of your fine playing and voice, Daoiri!
Absolutely true. To me it's a perfect example of pathos; this song nearly moves me to tears. My world is much different than his and our backgrounds differ significantly (I'm from Montana, live in Madrid) but I sing songs like this (or say Cat Stevens' Oh Very Young) to my little three-year and 10-month-old daughters because of the joy and other feelings they bring me. I'm glad to see Daoirí getting the recognition that he deserves.
Do you guys know what this song is about ? In Ireland we have a sport called hare coursing , the dog chases the hare and which ever dog gets out in front and turns the hare wins
An Irish singer's voice really just suits ballads and folk music in general , i could listen to it for ever ..... Ger O'donnell is another great Irish singer
IRISH SCOTTS KEV HERE. Love his voice I think he is so amazing and talented I love he covered foggy dew amazing job it is now my second favorite foggy dew.my first is Sinead with The chieftains.he is truly awesome.thank u for sharing n CONTINUE SHARING😒 LOL GOD BLESS
I've been listening to this song for 6 years now, and it still boggles my mind that a single person and instrument can create such an amazing interweaving of melodies
Hairs are stood up on my neck listening to this for the third time in 24 hours. Thank you for showing us the beauty of the Creggan white hare's struggle. A perfect performance of great music.
Such an incredible rendition of this beautiful song. I love the story of it. Its either just a particularly strong hare, or it could also be a nature spirit, or a metaphor about how man tries to conquer nature but is always one step behind
That's how I take it, its nearly like he feels guilty about his hunting and now respects the hare for her strength and determination. Hares were sacred in Celtic Mythology, it's our oldest Irish animal too.
One of the nicest folk songs which I heard. This is sung very well and played. I experienced Daoiri Farrell one month ago in Schwerin (Germany) with his music group Keeva. Irish folk at its best!
What a pure rendition... technically perfect: not a single fret buzz, not one arpeggio missed, perfect vocal pitch and words... and artistically: I'm just incredibly moved by this performance. Only one guy and his bouzouki but the whole Ireland is in there...

Jaysus! How good is this?
Tell the truth, its a wonder the good folk haven't put the come hither on him the way he plays
Unreal guitar and lyrics perfection
I agree. Bring ya to tears. So damn perfect ❤
I’ve listened to this 1000+ times and it gets better every time. CZcams needs to develop a way for us to praise Daiori some more. Brilliant brilliant brilliant mate
Watched this quite a few times myself! Cracking stuff.
People can always by Daoiri's music or go to one of his performances. He has his own website and youtube page ( www.youtube.com/@DaoiriFarrell ).
Many times too, Mostly when I'm drunk in the evening, but always smiling and having a good time. I love this song.

One of the greatest songs I’ve ever heard. I can’t stop listening to it. This is a world heritage tune. Should be saved for all future generations
A work of art, a museum piece of music
Listened to this obsessively prior to my initial voyage to Ireland from Missouri, USA. Upon landing I spotted a hare and assumed it good luck. What a lucky token it was. The pints were sweet, the whiskey smooth and the company full of craic.
The way he sings ‘Pedigree Greyhounds,’ superb.
Power and control. Such a strong voice!
Also my favorite part!
Agreed even at the start he already has you hooked! Superbly performed and sung!
I like "fine motorcars"
Daoiri is the only singer I've ever heard who could sneer and sing beautifully at the same time. I love the contempt as he sings about fine motor car. Lovely voice! And I love the Irish bazouki sound, it seems to be strummed like a banjo.

I love Irish folk music. It reminds me of our sweet Appalachian folk we have in the States. Same sound, same rhythm, and same topics of life being sung. It’s beautiful stuff
That's where it came from
Because it was the Paddy's that brought it there. All American folk is heavily based on the Irish roots. Google the forgotten slaves.
idk what it is with Irish music, in particular this song... it gives so many emotions, like on one hand it makes me sad and homesick even though I'm not Irish myself, and on the other hand it gives hope, warmth and a feeling of being grateful for what I have
It makes me wanna shoot people
@@judgementday-ep7yg You're listening to the wrong kind then lol. We got over all that a few years ago now. I haven't shot anyone for ages.
Music is our soul.
You're as Irish as you feel. The oldest book about Ireland is the Book of Invasions.
@@mcgrudo Dates from the 11th century. A book such as The Cathac dates from 650 AD or so.
Nothing takes you down into the lowland underbrush more than this song. I can see the fine motorcar and the long boots and wool jackets of the finely dressed men. Best of luck to the fine white hare.
What a voice. Steps easily into the shoes of the many great folk singers that have preceded him. Ireland's new star.
Tis. a good 'un.
“She jumped over the greyhounds” makes me shake and cry with emotion!!! This is real music!!!
So bhlasta!!!!
I think this is a song in the great Irish tradition; against all odds the underdog wins the day.
It speaks to the part of us all that feels how unfair life can be, and how uplifting it is when the little person gets a win.
That's the best voice I've heard so far in folk music. Thank God for youtube without which I'd never come across this great singer.
Agreed! truly fantastic. Check out Mairtin de Coghain as well, from Cork. He's fantastic czcams.com/video/pAb6yzq7xMc/video.html
If so Listen to matthew byrne or the dardanelles ;)
Ronnie Drew is my favorite for folk; completely different sound, but it was just perfect.
he is good but the best? Luke Kelly. Paul Brady. Andy Irvine..have a think about it
He's a little short of Andy Irvine, but very excellent.
nearly a decade later and still a legend, that's how you know he's one of the best...

Always find these songs too late. At least I finally found this one. Unbelievable vocals.🇦🇺♥️🇮🇪
Never too late!

This is incredible. A superb performance right up their with Paul Brady's version of Arthur McBride.
Quite right.
Both beautiful and extremely creative renditions . ❤
I've listened to this song a thousand times and I'll listen to it thousands of times more.
Reminiscent of the amazing songs we were privileged to hear during the great Gaelic folk revival of the 1970's.
We'll never see the likes again.
I've being listening to this for years now. Never get bored. If they play a song at my funeral, this is what I would want.
I only heard this, at my Aunties funeral 💕
I listened to this song literally 30 times tonight
My father is from Creggan and he was a musician. It would have been his 60th birthday last weekend and I'd never heard this version until then... haven't stopped playing it since ❤️👌

Where you have tabs, chords and lyrics found?
They held live hare coursing near Ballymena and it had the largest wild population in the county.
I visit this every so often, pace, timing, tone and vocals are always amazing!
had the pleasure of seeing daori live a few times and meeting him. highly recommend anyone who has the chance to get tickets and see him live
Might be the best vocals I have heard this year so far, wow his voice is magical.
Masterclass in every aspect. Thank God for Irish music and this talented and musically educated man. - From a German
So many years and still the best ever video showing the power of bouzouki in Irish music.
Heard this randomly on Radio 4. This guy craps on what passes for music these days. The real deal. Loved it.
Just the same her. What a find.
There's a lot to be said for a guy just sitting with his guitar belting out a good tune.
It gets right to the soul. Thank you, I love Irish music, it's very melodic and thought-provoking. Regards from Russia.
