We spent the last two days moving out of a four bedroom house and the big screen was the last to go. The whole time we moved we put Seo Linn on and just let them play non stop. I'm getting where I can sing along with them. My daughter and I stopped a few times to sing with them at the top of our lungs. Of course we had the volume up loud. The drums take me to another place, so does the accordian. These artists are top of the line. Won't find any better Irish singers!!! LOVE THEM!
Love the intense soliloquy near the end. Thanks so much for the lyrics to it as well. For us English speakers, here is the translation for that part of the song: History says not to be courageous ’, On this side of the end stone. But once in a lifetime, the wild wave of justice rises to the horizon shining and history and hope marry. So look for the sea change, on the other side of revenge. Believe in the white shore, it is not far from us. Believe in the miracle, believe in the peace, believe in the well of healing, Believe. (What s beautiful version...THANKS!!!)
At the start it would be Walk, walk walk my love. Walk steadily and walk quietly. Walk to the door and escape with me, And i hope you go safely ( not sure, i dont know what a “búirnín” is) But i prefer the irish version, as an irish speaker myself.
This has been one of my favorite songs since I was a small child. When my voice dropped, I lamented I couldn't sing it anymore. It was "too pretty", I was convinced, for a man's voice to do it justice. I have rarely been happier to be wrong.
The Spanish are actually fairly Celtic, as are many Western-Europeans 🤷🏻♀️ I've always loved flamenco, by the way, and I'm half-Irish, half-French LOL
Fui a Asturias el junio pasado, 2024. Era mi primera visita al norte de España. Había una festival de San Antoniu (¿?) y la música era bastante celta, muy parecida a la de Irlanda. Me encanta España y quiero mejorar mi castellano. Un saludo, o sea Sláinte a ti (en irlandés)
It seethes and boils and explodes. It shouts and simmers. It's the most angry defiant and powerful version I've heard. Very different from most. I won't say it's best only that it's wonderful. And that VOICE. the beauty!
I am french too, I've only known Seo Linn for a few month but i immediadely liked their music and their songs between tradition and modernity in défense of their language. Bravo
@Eternity Bound You have so many facts wrong, lord above. First of all, Gallic is not spoken anymore. French and Hallo are both Latin languages. Second, the connection of the Gauls and the Irish isn't through Galatia, it's in either Northern Spain, through the similarly named Galicia, or from the Aquitaine region. Thirdly, Farsi isn't a Celtic language, it's indo-aryan. All three languages mentioned are indoeuropean though, so there is that at least.
@@nunyabisness7055 - Thanks very much for your input. Ignore Eternity Bound and any other similar squawkers. Plus you have one of the best handles I ever saw on the internet. :)
I love that their version makes this more emotional and angry - it’s about a woman selling off everything she owns and suffering through it so her husband could fight the Brits, after all. We don’t know what the probable husband is thinking, but she would go out and blow their heads off herself if she could’ve in the time this was written. It’s also kinda cool to see a young group taking this song on with a man singing it, which is not the norm for this song.
Not quite. She would sell her only spinning wheel "to take away the sword of steel." It's an ANTI-war song by a woman lamenting her husband going off to war. And NOT originally to fight the Brits--to fight as one of the "wild geese" in foreign wars (probably for Napoleon)@@eriktroske6405
@@martavdz4972 interesting, I didn’t know that. Given the historical context and what Britain has done to Ireland, that was the obvious assumption to make!
Love the Gaelic language. It is fantastic that is being kept alive and that there is pride in their culture. This is music unlike so much of the trash today.
There are heaps and heaps of excellent music today, but it isn´t meainstream so you don´t hear about it. And it´s also in smaller countries, in other languages than English. The HU from Mongolia make great music, or you can check out the studio version of "Acis veras aizveras" by IĻĢI from Latvia, "Mezi horami" by Čechomor from Czech Republic, Tinariwen from Niger, "Nenjinile Nenjinile" by A.R. Rahman from India...
Seo Linn, This is an absolutely thrilling version of this beautiful traditional song. I love the crescendo of the drums toward the end. The spoken word coda by Stiofan, near the finale, is so dramatic and emotional.
Csodálatosak az ír dalok, csodálatos az ország. Én, magyarként, bejártam Írországot vagy 25 éve és soha nem feledem. Rokon népek vagyunk a szívünkben, a szabadság mindenek előtt! Kedvelem ezt az együttest, hajrá, fiatal írek!
I love their more Irish stuff. Their other stuff is okay and maybe more commercial for a broader audience - but let's face it, that kind of music can be done by anyone. Seo Linn's genius is music like this. This is soul-wrenching.

I don't speak Irish/Gaelic either, but there's just something about the feel of this song that gives me the chills. Recently found them here and I keep looking for more!

Mum used to sing a *slightly* different version of this as my lullaby - in her words "You would never have gone to sleep if I had sung your lullaby like this
it's a prosody called the ziggurat, like climbing a step pyramid, increasing intensity and volume to a peak. then rejoicing and peace of accompliceshment at the summit.
I had only heard him sing Óró 'Sé do bheatha 'bhaile until now, he brings a beautiful intensity to the songs. I'm learning several Irish folk songs, ive completed this one :)
Well done! So important to keep our cultures an traditions and stories alive, it’s what grounds us, gives us strength, lets us know home and family and keeps us on the right path. Too much history is lost.
Intrigued by the fact that the singer can´t "cry her fill". She probably has so much work around the house and the family that she has to deal with the horrible and uncertain situation while working. Or, she doesn't want to bother her family by crying because they have their own problems to deal with. I think a lot of people in this pandemic can relate to that... Thank you so much lads! This is PURE QUALITY! The changes in the tempo and the dynamics are so powerful yet so natural! One can hear there's so much training, so much skill, enthusiasm and dedication behind every voice and every instrument. This song isn't something you listen to, it's something that lives with you :-)
My great-grandparents were Gaelic speakers from Connemara. Listening to your music makes me feel connected to a heritage that my family lost years ago. Your songs were actually the first in Gaelic I had ever heard. Thank you for sharing this otherworldly language and making me proud to call it mine. Amazing work. Best of luck to all of you.
If you yourself want to learn some Irish, there are lots of online resources and classes and conversation groups. Lots of lovely speakers from Conamara to be found on programmes on TG4 television, Raidió na Gaeltachta radio, and more.
I have only ever heard it as a woman's lament. (eg Clannad) The defiance here is brilliant It takes it from weakness to defiance, but a Good defiance. He is not declaring war on anyone, he is just reclaiming his birthright and heritage. (He actually says he wants to take swords away) Love it.
I found you guys from a live video of Oro se do bheatha bhaire that just slaps, this also slaps. Great job bringing the old music to the new age young brothers.
I just love these guys. I sit on my hands waiting for their next video and they never never disappoint. My favorite by far of Irish singers and artists. Gods they're good! If I don't see them live before I leave this world I'd feel sorely cheated. I don't understand the words (darn) but I sure can feel them.
Davy Holden's page introduced me to Seo Linn's cover of Óró Sé do Bheatha ’Bhaile and other Irish folk/rebel songs. This one is also amazing. Told my brother I'd love to learn Gaelic and he suggested I spend a visit Inishmore, Anan islands and I'd be fluent in 2 weeks. Just added it to my bucket list
Listened to the first seconds and immediately thought - I'm gonna find it, I'm gonna buy it and I will play it on repeat for the next week. Beautiful. Thank you ♡
Pete Seeger sings a song called "Johnny Has Gone for a Soldier" that is clearly an evolutionary American mountain version of this song. So fascinating what survives and the changes made to those surviving bits over many long years
In high school I was very much into folk music. My girlfriend and I learned Revolutionary War era songs and made a program of them. We went around to all the history classes and sang them. She played guitar and I played tambourine (because that's all I could play). She's an alto and I'm a soprano, so we could do harmonies. It was a lot of fun and a different way to learn history.
Here in Virginia I once sang this song around a campfire and then the Civil War re-enactors explained how it evolved to Johnny Has Gone for a Soldier and then sang that song to us
Ok, I snuck a listen on Spotify...this is far and away my favorite of all the many, beautiful renditions of this great song. Thank you so much for such a beautiful, stirring new version!
i love all the versions of this gaelic classic tune-each group has their own unique sounds and twist to the song. clannad remains my favorite version as i heard it decades ago. these newer versions are great as well.i would by this groups cds.
as someone whos family left ireland and raised me in the west im thankful that media like this exists so i can piece my culture together, folks were lame and didnt even try to be irish, forced to americanise very hard, lost my brouge when i was 7 because of speech therapy classes. awful. but the spoken culture of our people will never die, erin go bragh
It's so very refreshing to hear the youngfolk singing such a beautiful song in the native tongue.You boyos just just got yourselves a couple of new fans from the States. Good on ya for your future
Best version of this song I’ve ever heard. I love y’all’s music. I hope y’all put an album out with all those wonderful Irish classics. Can I vote for Parting Glass? 😊
I'm not even close to be irish, but since my childhood Im love in Irish Songs and learned by my self a bit of gaeilge language. Love this music, and this version its powerful!
Wonderful to find this band just today on You Tube. Have always loved the Celtic and Traditional songs and these are fantastic. Great energy but also sensitivity. Keep it up guys!
The movie The wind that shakes the barley (a movie about Ireland’s fight in the 1920s for independence) I think would be a better fit. Especially the scene where Micheál Ó Súilleabháin refuses to speak English.
Love the music and the mix, voice and everything. Wish I knew what he was saying in the Irish. The best male singing of this song as far as lyrics was the one James Taylor did where he sings as an observer of the girl whose boyfriend went off to war. I do like the Irish part of the chorus. The first time I heard this song was a trio of college students, two girls and a guy with guitars singing their way through American History. Loved it ever since.
Guys you always excel! It´s one of the most beautiful versions of this song. I loved everything but Oh the spoken words, they made my heart beat faster. Love you all!
What these young men are doing for Irish music and culture cannot be under estimated.
This music transports me to a place of mystery and magic beyond the material or elemental world. Thank you performers, beautiful!

Seo Linn just would win the Eurovision for us. Facts.
generally speaking, those that stay true to their culture do well in Eurovision. So yeah, I hope we can get to see Seo Linn representing Ireland soon
Eurovision is trash and winners are picked based on political goals and social goals.

At the start it would be
Walk, walk walk my love.
Walk steadily and walk quietly.
Walk to the door and escape with me,
And i hope you go safely ( not sure, i dont know what a “búirnín” is)

I'm not Irish, but I'm ready to go to battle with the Irish! Love you guys
Davy Holden's page introduced me to Seo Linn's cover of Óró Sé do Bheatha ’Bhaile and other Irish folk/rebel songs. This one is also amazing. Told my brother I'd love to learn Gaelic and he suggested I spend a visit Inishmore, Anan islands and I'd be fluent in 2 weeks.
Just added it to my bucket list
Listened to the first seconds and immediately thought - I'm gonna find it, I'm gonna buy it and I will play it on repeat for the next week.
Beautiful. Thank you ♡
Haha thanks so much! Glad you liked it. Thanks for the support.
Самая лучшая версия. Мощь! Очень интересно в мужском исполнении да еще в таком сопровождении,да с гармошкой! Класс!
Pete Seeger sings a song called "Johnny Has Gone for a Soldier" that is clearly an evolutionary American mountain version of this song. So fascinating what survives and the changes made to those surviving bits over many long years
In high school I was very much into folk music. My girlfriend and I learned Revolutionary War era songs and made a program of them. We went around to all the history classes and sang them. She played guitar and I played tambourine (because that's all I could play). She's an alto and I'm a soprano, so we could do harmonies. It was a lot of fun and a different way to learn history.
There’s an excellent novel that was inspired by Pete Server’s song called Johnny’s Got His Gun”.
Here in Virginia I once sang this song around a campfire and then the Civil War re-enactors explained how it evolved to Johnny Has Gone for a Soldier and then sang that song to us
Brought a totally different atmosphere to the song and I love it. Fierce and stirring.
How Brilliant!! Is this...And oooh what great musician's and singers!!❤Kay,nz
Atta boy lads
The fury and passion in that mans eyes gives me proper goosebumps every time ❤
I am blown away!
Wow brilliant !! Congrats !!
I want you at the Eurovision . Please Ireland make my wish come true. Lot of love from Italy! 😍💚👊🔝🍀
j'adore ! merci pour ce merveilleux moment
Ok, I snuck a listen on Spotify...this is far and away my favorite of all the many, beautiful renditions of this great song. Thank you so much for such a beautiful, stirring new version!
Those drums though! ❤😍🥁🎵☘️
Beautiful and powerful at the same time. Greetings from Colombia
Ceol iontach o' bhanna ceoil den scoth. Fantastic music from a excellent band.
This is the best version ever heard of Siuil a Run, and it already is my fave folk song ever... thank you so much for this fantastic one!
You apparently haven't heard Clannad's version or Ella Roberts version 🤦
Celtic Woman’s version is beautiful
i love all the versions of this gaelic classic tune-each group has their own unique sounds and twist to the song. clannad remains my favorite version as i heard it decades ago. these newer versions are great as well.i would by this groups cds.
Check out Maggie Drennon's sometime...
@@DivaHick link?
Most versions I've heard of this are quite slow. I like the more uptempo beat, with Kev's great accordion! Fantastic! Thank you!
These guys gave 500%. Amazing
Incredible performance! Words fail - Stiofan has the most amazing voice to come out of Ireland today - or anywhere at the moment!
Love Love Love this. Please come to the USA. I enjoy wearing your shirt to any and all Irish festival's on Long Island. Slainte
as someone whos family left ireland and raised me in the west im thankful that media like this exists so i can piece my culture together, folks were lame and didnt even try to be irish, forced to americanise very hard, lost my brouge when i was 7 because of speech therapy classes. awful. but the spoken culture of our people will never die, erin go bragh

@@Надежда-м3д моя семья вырастила меня в Америке, хотя они из Ирландии
@@Lady_Longswordя понимаю. Мой народ вышел с Кавказа.
It’s still there. Still calls to some of us. Go.
Blessing from a fan in Canada. Tir le Teanga, Tir le Hanam....
My husband is Irish and I am Mexican, saying that, all I can say is I love it❤
It's so very refreshing to hear the youngfolk singing such a beautiful song in the native tongue.You boyos just just got yourselves a couple of new fans from the States. Good on ya for your future
Amhráinn álainn, GRMA!!
Best version of this song I’ve ever heard. I love y’all’s music. I hope y’all put an album out with all those wonderful Irish classics. Can I vote for Parting Glass? 😊
I could totally hear this as the song for an epic historical movie trailer
I'm not even close to be irish, but since my childhood Im love in Irish Songs and learned by my self a bit of gaeilge language. Love this music, and this version its powerful!
This is a beautiful cover, Probably the best one
May God bless you for keeping your roots watered
This was amazing thanks. I started with this song with the lord of the dance. With Michael flatley. You nailed it respect from Wisconsin.
Wonderful to find this band just today on You Tube. Have always loved the Celtic and Traditional songs and these are fantastic. Great energy but also sensitivity. Keep it up guys!
You should be casted for an Irish rebel movie. Like Outlander. You’d be the Irish Jamie. Such a great song. Thanks a lot.
We'll put Stiof up for the part!
Seriously, can totally imagine him in something like Braveheart.
The movie The wind that shakes the barley (a movie about Ireland’s fight in the 1920s for independence) I think would be a better fit. Especially the scene where Micheál Ó Súilleabháin refuses to speak English.
@@sorchx that’s a totally inaccurate movie though not just my opinion but of people who belong to the same clan as William Wallace .
I have no idea what he's saying, but I feel it deep within my roots
Siúil, siúil, siúil a rún; ‘s go dté tú a mhúirnín, slán
Wow, I didn't expect that, powerful, and well done. I am a McKay, salute from Austin, Texas.
First time I think I've ever heard a boy sing this and it's everything
Thank you my friend really glad it resonated with you 👊
I prefer you singing as Gaeilge, it's powerful! KEEP OUR LANGUAGE ALIVE!!
I forgot to say you are all amazing 💚
100%
Love the music and the mix, voice and everything. Wish I knew what he was saying in the Irish. The best male singing of this song as far as lyrics was the one James Taylor did where he sings as an observer of the girl whose boyfriend went off to war. I do like the Irish part of the chorus. The first time I heard this song was a trio of college students, two girls and a guy with guitars singing their way through American History. Loved it ever since.
Musica stupenda ☘️👍❤️ vi ho visto ieri sera al celtic wave. BRAVISSIMI 👏👏👏☘️💕
Guys you always excel! It´s one of the most beautiful versions of this song. I loved everything but Oh the spoken words, they made my heart beat faster. Love you all!
