What a beautiful lady Niamh Kavanagh really is and won the Eurovision Song Contest in 1993
Probably one of the best ballads ever written. And arguably the most worthy winner. I can't stop listening to this captivating song.
So true.
Absolutely my favourite Eurovision song
It is an extraordinary, emotional song and beautifully sung
Ireland doesn’t often get much credit for our winners, but this is a truly phenomenal song and undoubtedly one of our best
She controls her voice so incredibly. It's fascinating to watch and listen to her
The voice control and the ease of singing is so great here. She has no strong theatrics - she just stands there and sings. The song speaks for itself.
Totally, Iggy3, it’s worth watching again and again to appreciate the pacing, the vocal control & the build up of emotion. It’s perfect, a wonderful song, wonderfully sung.
Love your pfp
even a guns n' roses fan likes this
@@Million51169 lol yeah. Though i'm not a big fan anymore. It was more of a teenage years band. I just didn't get around to change profile pic.
The most deserving of all the 90s Irish winners, IMO. It grows on you.
This and the 92 win were exceptionally good...
It definitely grew on me
She sang the hell out of this song!
Effortlessly
She sure did!
And did not really sing before that, she worked in a bank no one had knew her before that song. and she went back to the bank job ,
Probably the best vocal performance of the live orchestra era.
One of the very best ESC songs. Niamh's singing is incredible - powerful, controlled, emotional. So glad it won.
Her voice is so incredibly powerful and confident, and yet she makes it look effortless. Truly a breathtaking performance.
Effortless and such a naturally beautiful woman.
One of the best songs ever in the Eurovision song contest. Classic. Memorable. Great performance. 😊🇬🇷
❤️🇮🇪
I would agree. The second best is Ding a Dong by Teach-In who won in 1975.
@@phil7218 Jhonny logan lol
@@phil7218 Totally Agree And Miles Better Of Waterloo
@@ElBlogDeSalva_- Nope the UK should have won. The song sung by the Shadows was high & shoulders above a everyone else
Big time and she didn't have to be half naked to do it x
considering this isn’t the music i’m into i’m absolutely obsessed with this song and i honestly don’t know why
me too
Because the lyrics connect with your life or its just bloody brilliant
Same here !! Definitely not my style normally. Just heard it on Ray D’Arcy a few minutes ago and I have no idea why I’m smitten by it.
Because it's such a beautiful beautiful song.
I heard it on the night and was entranced
Absolute goosebumps listening to Niamh and her backing singers are excellent. I remember watching it live from Millstreet. Loved it then as much as I do now. Class performance 👏👏
I said I was only going to listen to about 10 seconds of this...
Ended up listening to pretty much the whole thing... stunning... and mesmerizing...
Since i discovered im eligible for an Irish passport (grandfather from Eniskillen) i cant stop listening to Irish Eurovision songs! Tremendous tune and brilliantly sung Niamh!
This song is much too good for Eurovision
I loved it 30 years ago..... I still love it today! FANTASTIC VOICE !
She's beautiful!! Irish beauty!
Obsessed with this song, was so proud to be irish that night.😊
I saw Niamh perform this tonight in Amsterdam and she was absolutely brilliant. Wonderful song, beautiful voice.
Stunning performance in millstreet vocally brilliant on the night some atmosphere well done Niamh 🎤😍
I'm sad that this late 2000's that they don't have live orchestra anymore...
It’s a circus clown show now, that’s why
@@ventisette. Yeah, but there are really good songs equally. I watch eurovision every year because of songs, don't care really much about winners. Real winners are in our minds and memories
@@ElLuchador535 there have been maybe 2 deserving winners in the last 10 years, Loreen and Maneskin
@@ventisette. I rather die than say that maneskin was good winner, and i think modern esc is very overhated
Kaum zu glauben,das es schon 30 Jahre her ist,man fühlt im Herzen,als ob es erst gestern war...ich vermisse die 90iger und 2000er...😪😢
💞💞💞💞💞💞💞 she looks beautiful there
I am still in love with this masterpiece and it makes me so proud of being Irish and of republic of Ireland one of the best songs ever
Don't forget about Northern Ireland on the island of Ireland as well. 🇮🇪 ☘
Irelands Best Eurovision Winner,The Voice of a Goddess,
@@richardmacken9410 I agree with you she should have won the Eurovision song contest in 2010
Your Celtic cousins in Scotland loved it as well!
@@gmaccruyff55 ok that is good to hear
Real music. Beautiful song. Beautiful lady. Great hair.
By far the most underrated winner of Eurovision
How can it be underrated when she won it?
@@irishking1414 it’s not as appreciated as other winners
@@josephshaulov5914 Leann rimes
Because it takes two minutes to build into something great
what a fantastic voice.
What a singer! I’m blown away.
My fave irish entry / winner ever, and one of the best years for voting intensity too
Hey Handsome 😘❤
Certainly. This is quickly becoming my favourite Irish entry of the 90s. While I initially despised this entry, I now believe this was a deserved winner. Also this means that to my taste, 1993 had the correct songs in the top 3 (albeit in the wrong order; my order is 🥉🇮🇪, 🥈🇬🇧, 🥇🇨🇭)
Perhaps the greatest winning moment in Eurovision history. With 11 points between Ireland & the UK & Malta's 12 remaining, that "and finally... IRELAND" call, and the entire of Ireland jumping & screaming in joy. Amazing moment!!
Might not be the best Irish entry because a log are good
Omg, that twirling intro card. "Look what we can do with computers!"
:D
And your comment will be replicated in 20 years re what we think is cutting-edge now.
@@damienhunt4264 in 20 years the world will be a water world because of climate change.
@@runalovegood1870 hello. While I don't agree with your comment, I do appreciate your negativity.
@@runalovegood1870 hopefully a rapture before then
The best Eurovision song EVER!! An incredible song! An incredible voice!!
The live Orchestra is just on point!! Those trumpets giving me life
I love 2:45 ,when she takes a moment to prepare before singing the high note
Singing like that is like a sport
Voice so beautiful,face so beautiful, Irish.
The days Ireland was proud of their Eurovision entry,great memories.
Murphy 903 and then there was jedward what a disappointment
@@mercurytaylormaydeacon9980 yet they were our highest placing in ages. Which shows how bad esc has become. No respect for our acts in 2014 or 2015 but 8th for high haired muppets
It was more about the fact they almost bankrupt the broadcaster. They were a victim of their own success and it cost a fortune to stage. So they put through terrible entries.... might win again soon though.
Its Ireland there own fault
Becouse what they are sending the last 20 years .. omg its aweful
@@EdjeMr1975 Ireland had a great song in 2018!!
Who is here after 2019
Amazing song like always good old days.
just looking at stuff that brings back memories, I met my husband in the pub the night this was on, he was just diagnosed with guess what.....waiting for the kids to visit to break the news to them
@@noeleen5250 Hope your hubby is doing ok...
Amazing song. Obvious winner!
So discreet and simple. That was the real Eurovision. If Ireland sends another extraordinary balad like this one, you are the ultímate champs
Why do I find myself coming back to this song after..25 years! She's sublime. And now she looks like a predecessor of Adele from a less connected decade.
i am SHIVERING, my god does niamh have one of the greatest voices in the world or what?
No. She does not.
No...dimash kudaibergen holds that title. ...
@@ponyclub3198 oh but she does
This is when it was a pleasure to watch the Eurovision Contest. Over the years it’s gone down the wrong road ,not watched for years ,
Hi from Sweden 🇸🇪 simply amazing I got tears in my eyes.
I knew it would win!
A Beautiful song.
In your eyes.....
This song makes me feel like a forty-something-year-old finding love again, for the first time after a messy divorce.
yes!
I’m an avid fan of Eurovision and this IMHO is the best winning song of them all. Absolutely stunning melody and beautifully sung. It has a very natural sound of its own and quite different from most Eurovision songs. Utterly beautiful.
I would agree. The second best is Ding a Dong by Teach-In who won in 1975.
I miss this classy Eurovision
Such a nostalgic song. Beautiful Irish Ballad. Greetings from Turkey!
Wow, im 10 years old and goes in a music school.. THIS IS FANTASTIC
Goosebumps. Every time. Come on Ireland! Miss your cracking songs!! Johnny Logan come back!!
Real talent. Live
Showing no emotion, my feelings locked inside
I made myself an island, trying to take my heart and hide
I built a wall around me, afraid of letting go
But suddenly an open door I never saw before
In your eyes
I see the light leading me home again
It's heaven in your arms, my love
My heart is in your hands
In you eyes, seems so right
I see forever in your smile
This woman is a child again
(In your eyes)
Love's been building bridges between your heart and mine
I'm safe here on my island, but I'm out on the edge this time
I built a wall around me, thought I'd save myself the pain
Your touch swept me away, now I'll never play it safe again
In your eyes
I see the light leading me home again
It's heaven in your arms, my love
My heart is in your hands
In you eyes, seems so right
I see forever in your smile
This woman is a child again
I've never been this close
How do I know love will survive?
I'm walking a tightrope
Here, in your arms, I'm alive
In your eyes, I see the light
I see forever in your smile
This woman is a child again
Oh... in your eyes
(I see the light leading me home again)
I see the light, I see the light
(It's heaven in your arms, my love)
(My heart is in your hands)
Whoa...
(In you eyes, feels so right)
I see forever in your smile
This woman is a child again
When I look in your eyes
The winner of Eurovision 1993 in Millstreet,Ireland.
What a voice and what a performance!! Still great to hear after so many years!!
Why is this not on Spotify, like this version.
👏🇮🇪 Happy 30th Anniversary to Niamh Kavanagh🏆So good to see her & the Lovely Liverpool lass Sonia 🇬🇧💫on the Eurovision Song Contest (2023) Still both great songs & both great girls too.. Full Circle Moment 💫👏💙💛🙏
3:15 I love the way this entry ends, it adds a touch of sophistication and class.
she sings like its nothing. what a voice
A classy performance by a very classy lady
What an evergreen! I find myself listening to it still, and it ages so beautifully.
wow!! she really pulled that off!
The Island of Saints , Scholars and musicians . What a song . It should be a global classic .
God damn this woman was pure gold. Best ever euro song.
Geraldine Geraldine yes I agree it's right up there some vocals
One of the very best, this one!
One of the best song and beautiful voice by beautiful singer . Sharon. 🇮🇱
Very beautiful song, Kavanagh nice lady,well deserved victory!!
Perfect 10
I knew this would win after the opening lines
This could easily finish top 5 today, that's how good it is!
What a voice and what a song!!! She beats all MGP winners if you ask me 🤩
Best Eurovision song of all time, in my opinion.
I agree
The second best is Ding-A-Dong by Teach In 1975.
@@phil7218 great song ding a ding brilliant
Diggie loo,diggi le. ....Sweden always had the best songs.....no one will ever beat ABBA though. ...
i can agree same with Phil i really do think that one is the second best song
not cause im from the netherlands trying to support my country just cause i like the song and the performance
was just to laugh lmao
Diggi loo diggy Ley is definitely not one of the best eurovison songs ever. The most memorable ones in my opinion are... Niamh Kavanagh, teach in, brotherhood of man, ABBA, sandie Shaw, Johnny Logan, lena and Olsen brothers... Some great songs that didn't win are cliff Richard (robbed) new seekers (robbed) Liam Reilly (robbed) and Jalisse (robbed).
What a brilliant song and those vocals Niamh you were perfect and looked beautiful great day for Ireland one of the best eurovison songs.
The 90s were the Years for Ireland in the Eurovision. 4 Wins in this decade haha. And such a beautiful voice
Was played by Ray D’Arcy this afternoon on the eve of Eurovision 23. Ireland won’t be at it 😢. Man , we really need to come up with some belters again , like this gem.
My fave winner ever
I loved this at the time and still do. Greetings from England!
The best of 4 Irish winners in the 90s
This is such a lovely song. Well deserved win for the Irish.
This is still a favourite surely, the vocals are perfect, she is glamorous and smartly dressed. The poem it’s soooo beautiful
One of the best winning songs!!
La plus belle chanson de l eurovision pour moi c est celle ci
J aime gloria estefan et niamh à le même timbre de voix qu elle
La chanson et parfaite
Et merveilleusement interpréter par la belle niamh
Même le dos tourné je me serai retourner
Ya tout la perfection
Un talent un grand talent
Et pourtant c était loin d etre gagné elle représenté l Irlande qui avait gagné l année d avant je les entendu je me disais oh dommage c est rare qu un pays gagné 2fois l Espagne
L avais fait en 68et 69
J étais figé devant le poste
Et le miracle c est produit
Même la coupe du monde
En 98 et 2018 j ai pas eu cette sensation
Je peux le dire si j avais eu une maison de disque elle
Je l aurai pris les yeux fermés
Oui... J'aime aussi Gloria Estefan et la voix est similaire... c'est porquoi j'ai aimé cette chanson :-)
Great song .....
12 points from Sweden!
I was 14 at the time, amazing memories of a special Eurovision and an Irish win in Millstreet.
The glory days !
I saw here tonight in Eurovision Song Contest Rotterdam and i love the song. So beautiful!!!
Yes !!
One of the most under rated performances of all time.
I thought it won
It was hardy underrated. It was the winning song.
This song has grown on me so much. While I do prefer the Swiss and British entries, this song winning was fully justified.
Love this jazzy song. She was amazing. For me one of the best winners ever. Greetings from German fan
Wow, her confidence. Tá sí go h-iontach
Still gives me goosebumps....and not much else does these days :-)
Fun fact: the key change during In Your Eyes was suggested by Idina Menzel, now best known as the voice of Elsa in Frozen and the singer of the inescapable Let It Go.
Somebody was reading the Guardian today😂
My favorite Irish song from Eurovision.
the power in her voice was amazing and you could tell she was controlling it
I was a kiddo back then. I remember keeping my fingers crossed that she'd win. Still love her performance!
Bring it all bk the old and memorable eurovision experience with live orchestra proper voting too much of these baltic countries havin to much say , ireland have had some fantastic sings and excellent songwriters who for this year's participation gave been very much overlooked if ireland are to win eurovision again we need more johhy logan's paul harrington's charlie mcgettiganns niamh kavanaghs hats if to every one if them maybe a collaboration of them all will win this again for us
Sweetest winner ever. ❤️ from 🇨🇭Switzerland
What a lovely talented singer !
São sempre das minhas músicas favoritas as irlandesas ❤
I'm in love with Niamh's Irish accent :3
dublin specifically
Well done Niamh. If you had not won this year the world would never have known Riverdance.
The Irish Golden Decade...what an amazing entries, love it!
The *English* golden decade.
