Honestly I need a solo version of this from the girl in the purple dress. Her voice is soooo rich and beautiful. (The others are great too but. A song like this truly just needs that sort of depth you feel me)
I know I'm 3 years late to the comment, but look up "Eabha McMahon" for her work - she's incredible. (Her "How Can I Keep From Singing" rendition will leave you in a trance)
Here's an solo acapella varsion by Éabha McMahon. czcams.com/video/tlBvKlWqJSE/video.html And here's a better version at the Kylemore Abbey Concert in New York in 2014. czcams.com/video/eXieg940JQ8/video.html
The human voice in my humble opinion is still by far the most complete musical instrument, and when serveral voices are blended together as in this song the end result is ever bit as good as any orchestra, and no orchestra ever looked as good as these wonderful ladies bless you girls you have done Ireland proud love you all xxx
I love their great voices and harmonies ... I listen this song still in 2024 and this song will be evergreen with Celtic Woman...Greetings from Serbia 🙂
@@getorganizednotpianoized239 I like that it sounds more melancholic because of that :) I've always found the previous version to be VERY joyful for a parting song lol.
I'm English, 1/4 Polish ( my Gran) and my mum's uncle was Scottish. but don't have any Irish relatives, however I've always felt like somewhere down my family tree I do, just a feeling I've always had, hoping to get there one day too.
By far, this is the best version of The Parting Glass ever made. Great job my Celtic Ladies! Yeah, and to all the thumbs down, may your arses be parted by shards of glass!
LYRICS Of all the money e'er I had I spent it in good company And all the harm that e,er I did Alas it was to none but me And all I've done for want of wit To mem'ry now I can't recall So fill to me the parting glass Good night and joy be to you all So fill to me the parting glass and gather as the evening falls And gently rise and softly call Good night and joy be to you all Of all the comrades that e'er I had They're sorry for my going away And all the sweethearts that e'er I had They'd wish me one more day to stay But since it fell unto my lot That I should rise and you should not I gently rise and softly call Good night and joy be to you all Fill to me the parting glass And gather as the evening falls And gently rise and softly call Good night and joy be to you all La La But since it fell unto my lot That I should rise and you should not I gently rise and softly call Good night and joy be to you all So fill to me the parting glass And gather as the evening falls And gently rise and softly call Good night and joy be to you all Good night and joy be to you all.
Thank you very much for posting these lyrics. I always enjoy songs when I can read along as I listen to the words, since then I understand the full meaning. - - - Roger J. Sledz, Staten Island ( New York City ), 4/16/2019 - - -
Of course, this is a traditional song, and they left out everything after the second verse. "If I had money enough to spend And leisure time to sit awhile, There is a fair maid in this town Who sorely has my heart beguiled. Her rosy cheeks and ruby lips, I own she has my heart in thrall, So gently rise and softly call, Good night, and joy be to you all! Oh, may you drink and not be drunk And may you fight and not be slain A man may court a pretty girl And perhaps be welcomed back again But since it has so ought to be By a time to rise and a time to fall Come fill to me the parting glass Good night and joy be with you all!"
I just love this ! Perhaps the best lineup ever of Celtic Woman. Mairead, Eabha, Susan, and Tara are each one of them lovely, and outstanding singers and performers (at the top of their game in this video).
I agree. I saw these four in Portland several years back and they were amazing. What sets them apart is having a contralto. Now, if they would only bring back Hayley they owuld be perfection..
I'm so glad they put this up again. This version of this song has kinda affected every aspect of my music performances and instructions since I came across it the first time and the thousand times after. I know, weird. Getting a little choked up over here...
Not only a very beautiful song, especially I like how these ladies sing it, with what elegance you look at them, that they are proud to stand there and sing. This is how I like to see women most, proudly and confidently
If people were curious what heaven sounds like and what angels look like, look no further. These women are the prettiest angels on Earth. Natural feminine beauty trumps any other beauty.
1:55 she´s so beautiful she could be an actress too. Also, they all have amazing voices. This song is one of my favorites. I got goosebumps every time i hear this
I like *the previous recording* of this song better because it's faster. Some songs sound better in moderato than in adagio. I am very picky. The one from 2012 is not quite as slow as this one.
@@getorganizednotpianoized239 It's great that you have an opinion, but do you have to tell everyone in the comment section that it's too slow? Seriously, dude. If you don't like it then go to a version you do like, but don't just sit here and complain at everybody. I've seen three different comments you've made saying the same thing and at this point it's just getting annoying.
@@thetherrannative er... Give me a break, because at least I didn't cuss, or tell people bad things about themselves. *I like to repeat things for emphasis.*
Delicious version beautifully presented and such lovely girls to add to the mix then when the pipes come in the sound is complete excellent version of a great song
While stunningly beautiful, and not to take away from these lovely ladies, the Clancy Brothers and Tommy Makem version is still my favorite!!! Rest in peace lads!!!
Such pure unadulterated talent! These girls are in a class of their own. Any of today’s ‘girl groups’ who believe their own publicity and think they have what it takes should be made to listen to Celtic Woman, and hear what real musical talent sounds like.
One of the few times I can automatically subscribe and like a video. I saw them live and cried the entire time. It's so beautiful what they do. That and my biggest passion is to get to Ireland. 🇮🇪
I do not like the autotune vocal edit. With this edit their voices sound too clean and perfect, not human anymore. I dunno how to express it any better: If you have a flawless singer, he/she would sound different, more human, than CW sound in this cover version. Still well done.
"All my life I've been rushing around, taking whatever I please, and not giving a tinker's curse about who I hurt. Yet here I stand, with riches and reputation, feeling no wiser than when I left home. Here I stand, and there's not a single man or woman that I love left standing beside me." - Edward Kenway
Beautiful version of this great old song - by a beautiful group that makes all of us Irish Americans proud to recall our heritage! It just doesn't get any better than this - can't wait to see the new DVD!
FasttrackHistory it’s on Irish tv tonight but if you aren’t in Ireland then search on google: firstonetv be3 And it’s the first result that comes up. It’s on at 9:00 pm tonight 👍🏻
love thes women as much as all the Celtic woman. it is good to be able to stii see the others performers. . I never been disappointed. Including thes beautiful talented ladies.

I got to agree
Beautiful comment! :)

Heaven on earth this lovely song captures the essence. Of the human spirit.
This song is over 200 years old?! The sound quality is so good!
Oldest CZcams video on the planet????
One of the most popular farewell songs in the world.
This is a good version but luke kelly does it best
@@giddyupful I think they were just referring to the song, not the version
Apa
@@giddyupful doubt it.
@@giddyupful also, I couldn't find it quickly so I gave up. Heard something else from him amd my conclusion is that you are a troll.
Loved this tune since Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag, hauntingly beautiful vocals and harmony
Still the best AC game. I wish I could forget it, just to discover it all again.
Same buddy also the walking dead with Beth
This song is such a fantastic few minutes
There’s a song like this in ac black flag? That’s my favorite ac creed cause I like pirates but never heard any Celtic women songs in it
@@Princeofunderworld32when you complete the main story one of the former female pirates i can't remember her name she sings this during a cut scene
Exquisite voices, better than a lot of mainstream pop singers.
Bigly better.
I sang this with Friend’s at my late husband’s Funeral Service, the words were very appropriate for his character 💞
I love Ireland, and the Celtic Woman let me remember their wonderful and mystic land....
Remember, Celtic is not just Ireland, but also Scottland, Wales, Cornwall, Brittony and Isle of Man.
Eabha is such a wonderful Alto. Her voice is mesmerizing.
Actually she’s considered a Contralto singer.
I love their great voices and harmonies ... I listen this song still in 2024 and this song will be evergreen with Celtic Woman...Greetings from Serbia 🙂
This is absolutely beautiful. I don't know how anyone can dislike a performance this stunning. Their voices sound perfect together.
Their voices do sound very good together. But this particular rendition is too slow.
Listen to the High Kings Version.
@@getorganizednotpianoized239 I like that it sounds more melancholic because of that :) I've always found the previous version to be VERY joyful for a parting song lol.
May this tradition live for hundreds of years from now. Until then, we all have to take that parting glass.... Sooner or later.... Cheers!
a fantastic Scottish song; greetings from Melbourne and Vienna.
I am 1/2 Irish and will someday make it to Ireland! The music speaks to my soul!
I'm English, 1/4 Polish ( my Gran) and my mum's uncle was Scottish. but don't have any Irish relatives, however I've always felt like somewhere down my family tree I do, just a feeling I've always had, hoping to get there one day too.
This is a Scottish song
We are playing this at my father’s service on Dec 10. I will just be a puddle on the floor, thanks
And I was a puddle. Fortunately it was at the end of the service. My father would have loved this.
Grieve in grace, dear friend. You will meet him when heaven's glass parts for you.
By far, this is the best version of The Parting Glass ever made. Great job my Celtic Ladies! Yeah, and to all the thumbs down, may your arses be parted by shards of glass!
Black guy here, unofficial expert on gospel and soul, these woman have some soul for sure, great quartet.
LYRICS
Of all the money e'er I had
I spent it in good company
And all the harm that e,er I did
Alas it was to none but me
And all I've done for want of wit
To mem'ry now I can't recall
So fill to me the parting glass
Good night and joy be to you all
So fill to me the parting glass
and gather as the evening falls
And gently rise and softly call
Good night and joy be to you all
Of all the comrades that e'er I had
They're sorry for my going away
And all the sweethearts that e'er I had
They'd wish me one more day to stay
But since it fell unto my lot
That I should rise and you should not
I gently rise and softly call
Good night and joy be to you all
Fill to me the parting glass
And gather as the evening falls
And gently rise and softly call
Good night and joy be to you all
La La
But since it fell unto my lot
That I should rise and you should not
I gently rise and softly call
Good night and joy be to you all
So fill to me the parting glass
And gather as the evening falls
And gently rise and softly call
Good night and joy be to you all
Good night and joy be to you all.

Beautiful my dad played in a brass band for over fifty years and when he passed the band played this it was absolutely so emotional for me
As a Latina living in America. I just love and want to indulge in the Irish, Scottish,Céltic culture. 😍
This was wonderful. 👏 We are so blessed with ladies who sound like Angels.
Couldn't agree more ❤
Not my favorite rendition of the song but that thunderous applause speaks for itself. These women are amazingly talented
I prefer their previous version. This version is *too slow*
I just love this ! Perhaps the best lineup ever of Celtic Woman. Mairead, Eabha, Susan, and Tara are each one of them lovely, and outstanding singers and performers (at the top of their game in this video).
This feels nostalgic and beautiful ❄️
I have 3 versions of this song and this is definitely my fav. Eahba has my heart!
This is the best version of this song I have ever heard. I have played it over and over again all evening, as it is now stuck in my head.
Listen to The High Kings version of this song, By far the best.
@@paulmcewen agree, when the bagpipes hit about halfway through is what I feel it sounds like when the gates of Heaven open up for you.
I love how much more mellow and serene this redition is compared to previous ones.
Nah... I prefer the previous renditions!
I agree. I saw these four in Portland several years back and they were amazing. What sets them apart is having a contralto. Now, if they would only bring back Hayley they owuld be perfection..
Me and my wife just saw them in concert last night in Salt Lake City they were absolutely stunning truly amazing
This is so beautiful & the addition of the pipes is perfect.
ABSOLUTELY MY FAVORITE. GOD BLESSED YOU ALL WITH THE MOST BEAUTIFUL VOICES.
These four are my favorite frontline ensemble. Their harmonies are perfect, angelic even.
"For thou hast brought forth into the world great beauty." Thank you so much for the embodiment of all the words we don't have the wit to speak.
So peaceful🥰🥲 I love the way they sing this song😇
How Beautiful! Thank you for gracing the United States with such uplifting music. All the love from the American people
I'm so glad they put this up again. This version of this song has kinda affected every aspect of my music performances and instructions since I came across it the first time and the thousand times after. I know, weird. Getting a little choked up over here...
No matter how many times I listen to this song. I never get tired of it. It just become part of my daily routine.
I never tire of hearing this. Eahba's voice is as smooth as silk. Good night to you all.
I saw the Ancient Lands performance of this song on TV yesterday. Mind blowing. So many emotions when listening to this song.
Goosebumps all over my body.. Imagine seeing them live.. 💕
Yet another incredible number by this most gifted group of angelic musicians.
Beautiful Scottish song 👍
Life wouldn't be the same without these wonderful people, singers, and performers... thank God for CW.
This song took into a journey like a dream way to another world of joy
Thank you for love you sing
Greetings from Lebanon 🇱🇧
Not only a very beautiful song, especially I like how these ladies sing it, with what elegance you look at them, that they are proud to stand there and sing. This is how I like to see women most, proudly and confidently
This is one of the finest musical performances I have seen and heard on CZcams.
Then you haven't heard one maiud by Karliene? This is crap!
Omg it’s so beautiful ❤️ I fell happinesses and sadness at the same time 😔❤️
The nearest we may come to hearing the voices of angels , in this life !!!
Why are they so ... Angelic
Void Wraith, I mean, they are Irish 🇨🇮
If people were curious what heaven sounds like and what angels look like, look no further. These women are the prettiest angels on Earth. Natural feminine beauty trumps any other beauty.
Took them 3 hours to get this natural
Beautiful voices from those lasses. props to them glad to be observing as a proud Irishman.
This is the best version of The Parting Glass by CW

Their version from the live recording at Carnegie Hall is still the best version of this song I've ever heard.
The Choral Scholars of UCD also have a great rendition.
If I were given just 1 'wish' (never mind 3) I would wish for a singing voice as fantastic as these. SIGH..... :(
This gives me goose bumps and is sung by angles
Another great piece, all. Love the bagpipes with orchestra as well!

Fantastic group. Followed them for years!
My husband and I recently lost a good friend. This ones for you Joel.
It's an adjustment to see and hear the new girls, but I think they're doing a fantastic job. I'll be a Celtic Woman fan forever.
It's one of the evergreen Royale Sad Song. Celtic Women Sing it beautifully as well ✨🌠
what the voices... and celtic style with great voices always sounds TOTAL.

Oh, Celtic Woman, you couldn't be any more magnificent! You give me chills. So feminine and beautiful, with such angelic voices.
What an amazing piece of music to just sit back and hear...How on earth could anybody dislike this?? Its just beautiful to listen to.
For a guess, some folks can't handle the change in fiddlers after all this time, no matter how well she plays.
