    Huge thanks to Sweet Cheeks Winery here in Eugene, OR (sweetcheekswine...) for letting us film there, which was the only green place we could find in mid-August! This summer in Oregon has been absolutely beautiful and I have loved spending time outdoors with the family. So, I am really excited to give you a small taste of that by sharing some of the lovely scenery from my state in this video. Besides the scenery, we wanted to keep this video sweet and simple and let the song speak for itself. :) I hope you love this video as much as I loved creating it!

    LYRICS:
    Oh, Danny boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling.
    Oh, Danny boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling.
    From glen to glen, and down the mountain side.
    The summer's gone, and all the flowers are dying.
    Tis you, tis you must go and I must bide.
    But come ye back when summer's in the meadow.
    Or when the valley's hushed and white with snow.
    And I'll be here in sunshine or in shadow.
    Oh, Danny boy, oh, Danny boy, I love you so.
    But when you come, when all the flowers are dying,
    If I am dead, as dead I well may be,
    I pray you'll find the place where I am lying,
    And kneel and say an "ave" there for me.
    And I will hear, though soft you tread above me,
    And on my grave will warmer, sweeter be.
    For you'll come and tell me that you love me,
    And I will sleep in peace until you come to me.

    What seems to be the proper lyrics:
    Oh, Danny boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling.
    From glen to glen, and down the mountain side.
    The summer's gone, and all the flowers are dying.
    Tis you, tis you must go and I must bide.
    But come ye back when summer's in the meadow.
    Or when the valley's hushed and white with snow.
    And I'll be here in sunshine or in shadow.
    Oh, Danny boy, oh, Danny boy, I love you so.
    But when you come, when all the flowers are dying,
    If I am dead, as dead I well may be,
    I pray you'll find the place where I am lying,
    And kneel and say an "ave" there for me.
    And I will hear, though soft you tread above me,
    And on my grave will warmer, sweeter be.
    For you'll come and tell me that you love me,
    And I will sleep in peace until you come to me.

I pray you are free of any spirit of guilt and God can use you as an instrument to comfort others who have had a family member go home too soon. I pray you know Jesus loves you, can heal your broken heart, and that your sister is in Heaven where she is now whole and at peace and you will be reunited. God bless and protect you in Jesus's name, Amen.

    Who would give this song and this presentation a _thumbs down_? What do you have for us that's so much better...? If it's simply a matter of your preferring a less overlayed, traditional version, that's one thing...but a men's choir presenting this exact piece in Ireland would surely not be sent away

    Dear Peter,
    My name is Emily, I'm 21 and live in Cincinnati Ohio. A few months ago I was in a car accident and lost my ability to walk, since I was rear ended I had to drop out of school and quit my job. Now I spend my days lay in bed trying to find a way to pass time, and seeing doctor after doctor in hopes to regain the power and strength in my back and legs. It's not easy being my age and wondering if I'll be able to walk again or not while all of my friends are out having fun and being successful. I stumbled across your videos this morning in my daily attempt to keep my mind occupied and I most say I haven't been this happy in months! I'm a huge fan of a cappella, medleys, disney, LOTR and all of the classics! Your videos have brought me so much joy and I can't thank you enough. You are so talented and I love your positive energy, keep up the great work you're amazing, and thanks again for giving me such a great day!
    With much gratitude,
    Your new fan!

    Peter Hollens: Once again, thank you for your joyous and beautiful voice. It helps and calms me. I wanted to humbly suggest a song that I grew up with, it was one of my parents favorites. The only version of it that I have ever heard is from a 1956 (?) album by the Norman Luboff Choir, it is called "Goodbye my Lover". It is a VERY old Irish Sea Song. If you listen to it, I think that you will fall in love with it like I did when I was so young. Thank you Sir.

    Peter, thank you so much for singing this song. My great-grandmother would sing this song at funerals of The Departed. Sadly, her son was sent to war or two. This song Come True for her. While her son was away, she passed when he was away. Her son came and did go to her grave and said prayer for her. The song has a deep family connection for me since this has been true and our lives. My mother has passed. She love this version of the song. She would cry when she listened to it. And now, I cry when I think about how it affected her. Thank you, for creating this beautiful version. I will always cherish it.

    I love this song. It was one of my grandpas favorites. Beautifully done. And now for a song request. Due to the death of Gene Wilder, may he rest in peace, I think a cover of Pure Imagination would be a fitting tribute to him.

    Peter Hollens, I love watching your videos here! They are INCREDIBLE!!!!.......have you ever considered combining your videos that are here on you tube, and selling them on DVD? I KNOW my dad (86 years old), would LOVE to watch these (he doesn't use a computer)....he was involved in a Barbershop Harmony music group many years ago, but they had to cancel it after many of the older men grew sick or passed away. He LOVES music like this, I just thought it would be great for you to put a variety of your videos together on one DVD.....like all of your Irish/Scottish music on one, organize them so it would have a common theme or mix them up. Perhaps you could take requests from those of us who enjoy your videos to request specific videos to be put on a DVD....I'm sure they would make GREAT GIFTS for birthdays, Christmas, or just because....I hope you consider it and let me know if it is something you can do......does anyone else on here like this idea?

    Hey Peter, could you please consider doing "Bridge Over Troubled Water" and "Sound of Silence" by Simon & Garfunkel? They're some of my favourite songs and fit your voice and style perfectly, I think.
    I would also love to hear Bohemian Rhapsody (like A Capella Science did, you should collab with him) or anything else from Queen, I Will Always Love You, My Heart Will Go On, Only Time, The Voice, Conquest of Paradise, Over the Rainbow, Hello, Imagine, I Heard It Through The Grapevine or O Fortuna by Carl Orff (this is only a selection).
    I am proud to be a Hollens Family member and really love and appreciate all your work (especially the collaborations - you're my favourite musical TH-cam channel), wish you all the best and hope that you continue this channel for a long time. I would be very happy if you took note of me and actually covered one ore more of my suggestions!
    Sincerely, Gumbledalf
