Jeff Danna is an award-winning Canadian film composer. Born in Burlington, Ontario, to a musical family active in local theatre and church choir, Danna was a reluctant young piano student but found solace in an electric guitar left behind at his home by a friend. Unknowingly following in the path of three generations of Winnipeg mandolin players, progress came quickly. He began playing professionally at the age of 15 until a hand injury brought his performance career to a halt at 22. He has composed or co-composed scores for a wide range of films and television, including The Boondock Saints (1999), Resident Evil: Apocalypse (2004), Silent Hill (2006), The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus (2009), The Good Dinosaur (2015), Storks (2016), The Breadwinner (2017), The Addams Family (2019), Onward (2020), Guillermo Del Toro’s Tales of Arcadia (2020), Nora Twomey’s My Father’s Dragon (2022) and Julia (2022). His older brother, composer Mychael Danna, is a frequent collaborator, and the two have received Emmy nominations for their work on Camelot (2011), Tyrant (2014-2016), and Alias Grace (2017). Additionally, Danna has been nominated for six Annie Awards, won five BMI Film & TV Awards, a Gemini Award, a Genie award, two Hollywood Music in Media Awards, and 17 SOCAN Awards. - เพลง
Happy St. Patrick's Day 2024 everybody
When my friends were still around (Two to cancer, one to suicide) we would rewatch boondock saints and get all our drinking out of the way during the opening. Now a days, when I hear this, tears to my eyes as I pour out four, and down them one at a time as it plays. Cheers to my friends and to all of you. Treasure who you have for as long as you have them. Never let that fire die.

@@JeffDannaMusic And to you.
Hugs!!
Good advice my friend. Had 2 friends die to suicide and 1 to an overdose. Did not see it coming...
I can feel your pain lad my thoughts and prayers are with them in heaven (-_-)
Greetings from Thessaloniki, Greece ! The first time I heard this song was on TV , late one night in the year 2000 , in the opening credits of The Boondock Saints , and I remember thinking " Maybe I should start listening to this kind of celtic traditional music, it's really good". Today , I can proudly say that I play it on the mandolin along with my two teenage daughters , backing me on guitar and ukulele, and it feels amazing. What a blessing! Thank you so very much for creating this beautiful melody. And I shudder to think what kind of music my daughters would like today if I hadn't turned on the TV that night back in 2000 !!!
wow! Thanks for such an uplifting note.And you and your family play it together , that's fantastic!
You should send me a clip of that sometime , to jeffdanna@charter.net
Celtic Music has wonderful soul , I'm glad I could help you discover it. It's wonderful that that piece of music has turned out to have had such a long life for some people. Thanks for stopping by my channel.
Things always happen for a reason; there exist no accidents... Khaire from Arizona! :)
That is so awesome ! I read your comment and couldn't stop smiling 😊! I wish All good things come to you and yours my friend !
@@aimeestanley9546 So kind ! All the best to you !!!
Go you!! That’s awesome ❤
This will undoubtedly forever have a very special place in my heart. Never gets old.
This song makes me want to join forces with my brother, my best friend and my father in fighting crime and destroying all that which is evil so that which is good may flourish
Good shepherds we shall be ,
For thee my Lord for thee .
Power hath descended forth from thy hand ,
That our feet may swiftly carry out thy command .
So we shall flow a river forth to thee ,
And teeming with Souls shall it ever be .
IN NOMINI PATRES , ET FILI , ET SPIRITO SANCTI - AMEN .

This is not just a song, it is a Lifestyle
This song makes me cry every damn time. My heart almost explodes with longing for Ireland, absorbing every single sound of this incredible song.
God...to think I found an unopened copy of Boondock Saints at a thrift store and watch it at least once a month now. The music in general is great, but this is the first song I think of whenever I think about it.
God, this song takes me back to third grade when I lived in Texas. My teacher would play this during our quizzes and tests in order for us too concentrate.
ha! Love to hear that . cool teacher 😎. Welcome to my channel .
When i moved to Ireland that was the first song i played after leaving the plane... Thank you so much.
thanks for letting me know . I'n glad the song is still with you .
How is it there?
Work and such as well
Who moves to Ireland, most move out 😂
@@goonknox Just did a week ago .-. but it was fun.
La Crosse, WI here. I first heard this in college around 2001, and it is directly responsible for getting me into playing Irish tunes. Be careful, lads...it's a slippery slope! You start off with Danna in The Boondock Saints, then you're into Dropkick and Flogging, next you're into the legendary Pogues and Chieftains, and soon enough you're down with Christy Moore, Moving Hearts, Saw Doctors, Wolfe Tones, and Planxty!
Love to hear it! Congrats on sticking' it Out .
Love The Wolfe Tones.
I am from Nicaragua but for real , when I listen to this song then I feel Irish hahaha
Somewhat about this music brings tears to my eyes.
Russell Hughes haben das mit den Kindern in in zu zuzuzzz
A song from the boondock saints
My family listens to this song every year on Christmas before we get hammered
I'll bring a case, where am I coming to? :'D
This song/ music captures the human soul unlike any I have ever heard, and I have heard much over my lifetime. Thank you for your inspiration ❤
we played this at my grandmother's funeral almost fifteen years ago and I still listen every St. Patrick's day.
Thanks for sharing that ZZ, it's great to know that the work we do goes out into the world and becomes part of peoples lives. Thanks for checking in with my channel , and stay safe !
@@JeffDannaMusic Man! Thanks so much for the response. You guys are insanely talented. I'm humbled, by your response. That really just made my day. And My Grandma's too. I listen to this song only once a year, but on that day I listen 20 times. You're the best Jeff. Stay healthy and safe. Much love.
@@JeffDannaMusic i knew this song through the saints movie. Never gets old, makes me wanna be a better man. Thanks for your music!
@@cineaustral9436 I appreciate you letting me know that . Makes all the hard work worthwhile !
You're a good lad ! ! !
My wedding party entered my reception to this song. It was epic!
ha! That sounds really cool . I'm glad to be a small part of your Big Day!
This song has always been a favorite of mine ever since I heard it on Boondock Saints. I have a daughter she’s only 2 months old, nothing would soothe her. I mean nothing, I turned this song on hoping for the best, well…it’s the one! She loves it! An it’s a reason to dance around with her in the living room while it plays. There’s something about this kind of music that I think heals the soul. ♥️ It’s a masterpiece, an often played in this house hold. 🥰
Ireland has such really spectacular landscapes! Superb! Love your country, much love from Romania!
The Danna brothers are underrated composers, both together, and individually. What a great piece!!!
Celtic music has such a power, such a soul, i remember when i discovered A Celtic Tale: The Legend of Deirdre, I was amazed, as a musician, it added me so much, when i moved to Canada i was so alone, so scared of life, your songs helped me in so many ways, nowadays whenever I feel sad or struggling with something I come back here and everything goes away, thank you so much Jeff & Mychael Danna for this amazing piece!
Also, I'll make my fingerstyle version of some songs of that album and i hope you guys can see it soon, cheers from Brazil & Canada!
Amazing to hear that . Coincidentally , we recorded that album in Los Angeles and Toronto in the summer of 1997. I'm glad you are still here with us . Look forward to that fingerstyle album !
WHAT A LEGENDARY PIECE. NEVER GETS OLD MAKES ME CRY EVERY TIME. YOU GUYZ R LEGENDS. HELLA COOL.
Hey Jina , thanks man. That tune has been around for 20 years , I thought I should finally do a video for it , for my new TH-cam channel. Appreciate your thoughts on it !~
SUCH AN EMOTIONAL PIECE OF MUSIC SO BEAUTIFUL
@@JeffDannaMusic The most beautiful epic piece of Music I have ever heard! Its Unforgettable Music! Its my all time favourites. You guys are AWESOME!!!!!!
If you think this is emotional, don't listen to Caoineadh Cú Cullain by Davy Spillane
I am from Russia, but I know past lives exist because anything about Ireland makes me emotional. And this song hits my soul.
Listen 10second cut from this song exactly 11 years ago and sometimes spend some time to try find name of the song and artist. And this is the day i finally can finish my searching and enjoy full song. I wrote this coment just to send my feelings to the world. What a lovely feeling. Now i can Die 😊✌️✌️😅❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ Prays from Czech Republic
ha ! Thank you for letting me know. I'm glad you found me here !
Die Natur über den mensch gestellt mit wunderschöner musik untermalt.
Jeff, I thought you may find this interesting. Nearly four years ago, this song was playing as my new bride and I recessed down the aisle having said our vows. Thank you for this beautiful piece of writing.
I love hearing that . It makes all the sweat of creating so totally worthwhile . Thanks for stopping by and for sharing your story with me !
Simply astonishing. So much emotion and history in this song, it makes you feel transported to another place and another time completely. This was a treat for the ears and the soul
First time I heard this song was near the time of my birth, my mother was trying to calm me with music and after twelve failed attempts she played this song and almost after ten seconds past I finally fell asleep; and almost eighteen years later I still listen to this song to sleep easy and peacefully. When I was about to go to highschool I'd always wanted to learn how to play it on the violin and many other songs like this, after looking into the history and meaning of this song thing I'd find a peaceful history I found bloodshed and death but no matter, I still love this song and hopefully have my own cover of this song and others like so. Thanks, and good luck to all.
It's gratifying to hear that this piece has always been with you. I hope it inspires your own creations and talents !
This is my most favourite 4 minutes of my life whenever I can make time for it
I've discover lastly this song and it's a masterpiece. Full of emotion like if future will be good and this world need this type of song.
Bravo! My girlfriend hums this piece all the time.
I heard this song when Im sad feels like Im getting of freedom
this is the song people ask me about the most when I play it on speakers
love this music a great eacape from all the noise on the radio
I try to start every St. Patrick’s day with this song, so that I will go through the day uplifted
Beautiful song from a great movie 💚
Used to wakeup daily to this song all throughout high school and college.
Happy St Patrick's Day Manogue!!! Class of 2016!
I was looking for this song for about an hour on my old hard drive, I just spontaneously felt nostalgia and an urge to hear it after 21 years, irish music is something else.. Just found out two of You are the original composers, nice to know, all my love to You
thank you! and welcome to my channel .
I send this song to people on Saint Patrick's day and any day
Slainté!
I listen this all my childhood, but I have never watched Boondocks Saints. Today I'm music producer and orchestral composer and I have sure that song awaken that aspiration on me. I'm back today to listen this song, to get references for a track that I'm working on for a audio book and I found it in HQ on your official channel, I cried a lot on my studio. Thank you for this. You're an amazing composer and always an inspiration.
Thank you for post the song in HQ, hope one day work with you, or at least meet you!
Augusto Diniz
I sure appreciate you letting me know that Augusto. I'm glad my song helped you on your path. Good luck with everything !
Wicked wonderful! Happy Saint Patrick's Day 2024 from mid-coast Maine!
Back atcha from Pasadena , Ca!
Thanks for uploading the track, Jeff. Much appreciated. ❤🇮🇪☘
This song is my soul
From south east Alaska
This looks and feels like home
A song so beautiful, blood stirring, and true to the spirit of the people it represents! Is it any wonder that the whole of the world wishes to be Irish? ☘️
I got this track as my Ringtone since i first watch "Boondock Saints" but this song led me to Irish Folk music...THANK YOU Jeff Danna!!!
This is the anthem of my teenage years and to the 20-something years of friendship I've shared with friends I hold as close as brothers to my heart.
I don't know why but this song make me smile!
I brings a smile to my face as well. It's just so energetic and up beat.
like so many before, I first heard this in The Boondock Saints. I immediately fell in love with it. years later, I'm in my childhood home with this playing on my iPod on the hi-fi system, and Mom is inspired by it and makes a painting. she called it "Irish Jig." this song is so beautiful. I've put it in a special 6 star playlist in my music library. thank you, Jeff and Mychael. it's so good and is still amazing all these years later.
Great to hear it , Josh. Glad you are still here listening with us !
@@JeffDannaMusic such an honor to read your response.
I played this on my guitar with an E-bow for my college exam about ten or eleven years ago
I love my ebow! Thanks for sharing , happy St Paddy’s day !
Im obsessed with this song. I've listened to it a thousand times and it is easily one of the most beautiful things I've ever heard. Thank you.
This captures the spirit of Ireland so much. I wish I could just go right now. Best Irish folk song ever. 🇮🇪
Play the Wrath of Druids DLC and find the meaning behind this song.
Happy Hunting
Perfect for St. Patricks day
Thank you for this song it‘s been with me for years and deeply touches me!
Same here, it's been years, could be my funeral song
Some of the ALL TIME greatest songwriters. The soundscapes they create are phenomenal,and unsurpassed, in the last decades. Thank you two for all u do
perfect.... greetings from germany...
This music justs sounds so joyful
The scots n Irish hold the most pride in my opinion from where they came from and who wouldn't from these pictures? 1683 my family joined America God bless us an from where we came.
So peaceful. So wonderful. ❤️❤️
I love meditating to this song. It takes me on a journey every time. This song is truly beautiful.
I want this played at my funeral
Listen to The Parting Glass, you may change your mind. Either would be great though.
One of my ALL TIME FAVORITE SONGS!!
This will always be one of my most favorite songs ever. Beautiful
This is a magnificent work of art! I have loved this song for years ❤
Not gonna lie I re-watched the parts of the boondock saints that had the song just to listen to it, it wasn't until a few days ago when I realized it was a real song that I could look up and listen to at anytime, absolutely love this song
We originally wrote it for our album 'A Celtic Romance' - which is here on this channel - as part of it's enclosed storyline. Long story but - it wound up on the film I was scoring shortly after that ,The Saints. And the rest is history ! Thanks for stopping by.
So here it is! After 13 years!!
When I was young, my mom would put some CDs on by the morning, just after waking up. I was 13, maybe 14, and I had just started going after my dreams.
Among many songs, this one was specifically the one which made my heart and soul burst with courage and a deep feeling that everything would be ok. I remember listening to it and feeling the sense of adventure, will and faith that would guide me for so many years, giving me strength and pushing me foward when things felt dark.
So when I was around 15, my mom stopped putting the old CDs on, including the one containing this song, and eventually lost a lot of 'em. Still this song remained within my spirit, and I would search for it endlessly. I would tell friends about it and try using music finder apps, but with no success. Untill now. Untill today.
Suddenly, the whole Unverse seems to make sense once more and we are exactly where we were ment to be. Anything is possible through the cosmic synchronicity.
13 years later I find the one song. 13 years later the song finds me.
I'm grateful.
Really appreciate you letting me know that . That's why I get up in the morning and work the long days on this stuff. The whole 'Celtic Romance' CD that your mom used to play is on this site. Glad you found me!
@@JeffDannaMusic thank you for your fond reply. I'm definetely checking out the whole album. Also thank you for your music and inspiration. It changes peoples lives!🙏🌟
Joao Dolabella BTW, my brother and I still sell those Celtic Romance CDs on EBay, if you are looking for the Old School Experience !
@@JeffDannaMusic you are an amzing artest i found the inner me with this song. this song holds all my favorite memories as the song hums through my head. sorry for the bad spelling. i could listen to this for hours on end and have!
Priceless Song
A Celtic Romance: Legend of Liadain and Curithir. Oh, My! What a tale of woe. One of the saddest stories ever...and the one that has rattled around in my head for two decades that cries out to be told anew. Jeff or Mychael, why not pitch this to one of your movie making contacts? Hell, the soundtrack is already here.This is one of my top 5 favorite albums of all times, any genre.
my favorite
I listened to it standing in Howth cliff that was brilliant
This song just bring op all emotions at once. It's that good!
powerful music! 🙏 thanks lads
Both awesome and peaceful all at once. Such great music and pairs well with the visuals.
I love this song. It always makes me cry.
It gives a Scottish feeling and an Irish one as well
This is truly my favorite musical piece of all time. It’s nostalgia wrapped in hope
I'm proud to be an Irish-American! 🇮🇪 🇺🇸 🍺 🥔 🍻
A perfect song for an adventure of a lifetime
Boondock Saints ☘💞
When im think Irish music, its The Irish Brigade and this.
Almost two decades ago, I could only fit a few megabytes into my old nokia. This song was my go-to for a morale boost while trekking across the Isle of Man. It works the same till this day. Thanks for this!
Love that . Thanks for sharing ~
MARAVILLA es que después de tantos años encuentre esta canción en TH-cam.... en su día la oía una y otra y otra y otra y otra vez..... porque la energía que me da esta música no la encuentro en ningún otro lugar... Thank you Jeff... Thank you Mychael...💕💕💕💕
¡De nada! Me alegro de que me hayas encontrado aquí en mi canal.
This song is pure Love
Ireland and Irish music are making me feel the feels.
Have you ever seen a soul dancing while flying among tears of joy, for the unknow freedom music offers? All you need is to close your eyes & imagine, while hearing this song... Thank you!
p.s. it's first time i see the video & all ths nature beauty captivated my heart!
I loved reading this . thanks for sharing !
I remember when i was a teenager and i was obsessed with thinking about being irish and listening to this and it inspired me to look up the old irish mythology and learn about that kind of stuff. Really cool. Thank you.
I couldn’t love this song more.
I first heard this song on a date with a super cute guy I really liked and I literally shushed him and begged him to Shazam the song before it ended and send it to me. We didn’t end up together but it was still a victory because I still found the most beautiful exhilarating song
haha love this story !
15 hours ago today, concrete news about a third film. Fucking yeah!
I always try to great my morning with this melody
I make sure to listen to this every St. Patrick’s day. For some reason it strikes me a the quintessential Irish tune. Amazing work.
This was our wedding walk in song after the ceremony. Had to fight with the wife over this and somehow got her to agree to it. Thank for the amazing song, it has always had a special place in my heart.
Glad we
Could be part of your big day . Hope the wife has forgiven us !
Great job on the music. I'm an Ashkenazi Jew from Long Island. I should have no relationship to this kind of music. But all I can tell you is that from my earliest age that I can remember, when I was somehow introduced to bagpipe music, which for reasons I'll never know my Dad liked, I learned to love Irish folk music. Maybe it was listening to the soundtrack in John Wayne films, especially "The Quiet Man." Or watching the St. Patricks parade in Manhattan. Or who knows? But ever since, I've always managed to find an Irish pub and sit in to listen to a set of good musicians passionately playing for an audience and the rest of us clapping and stamping our feet in time. There's something about that fiddle, bodhrán, flute, and tin whistle that just rings with me, let alone the Irish countryside and my love of horses.
I hear ya!
Good shepherds we shall be , for Thee my Lord for Thee - Power hath descended forth from Thy hand , that our feet may swiftly carry out Thy command - So we shall flow a river forth to Thee , and teeming with Souls shall it ever be - In Nomini Patres , Et Fili ,Et Spirito Sancti - AMEN
I've been working on learning this song on guitar, hopefully one day I'll be able to put a video on it out, this is a legendary piece of music, its helped me get through some tough times
Hey Sol , thanks for letting me know, Glad that this old tune ( well...1997 ) has had some meaning for you. It still makes me emotional when I hear it, all these years later. Good luck with your guitar work on it ! Stay safe.
@@JeffDannaMusic Thank YOU for making this amazing piece! Over 2 decades old and still touching hearts all around, it's amazing! You stay safe as well!
Beautiful piece to the senses
This is such a good song but...why...why does this song fill my heart with such pain and joy listening to it? Why do i shed tears everytime i listen to this song?
One of my FAVORITE SONGS!
The 3 helped me find solid ground again. Along with a lot of others help. It is noticed and appreciated. Even if I didn't show it. Thank u
