That Celtic style of vocals, so crystal clear and sweet, is just stunning. Those women could sing a grocery list and it would bring tears to one's eyes.
For all I know, they ARE singing a grocery list, but, yeah, I'm still brushing a little mist from my eye, and I bought only a few potatoes and NO onions. Those tricksy fairies!
As an American who is a third Irish, a third French, and a third Dominican(🇩🇲), this music soothes my soul! Never been prouder to have Irish blood flowing through these veins!
My mother's side is Irish. A few years ago I was shot up in Afghanistan. As they were flying me from the military hospital in Landstuhl to the States, my wounds started bleeding out, and they were running out of blood on the plane. The pilots decided to make an emergency, unauthorized landing in Ireland. The Irish were more than accepting, and I was taken to the hospital in Limerick where I was stabilized by Irish doctors and nurses. I owe the Irish my life. I'll come home someday and show my gratitude. Brotherly love from an American soldier.
Thanks for taking the time to share your story. Great to hear about your Irish Heritage and your heroic tale. Until you do come home to Irleand again let this music bring you there from time to time.
As a brother in arm from France, your history is fantastic bro. This also bring me tears cause some of my brothers got shot in operation. Came to finally this song... Gotta get stronger and keep your head up after that. Big salute from a brother in arm from France dude.
@@adrienodoyer6316 Ils ne passeront pas. The French earned my respect at Verdun, the Somme, and the Marne. Salute to your warrior class and native soil, brother.
That's the Scots. Hillbillies are named after Kingsmen(followers of King William(protestants) who fought on both sides of the American revolution then settled in the hills.
@@gameznotgames2435 Yes, the Irish had historically lived in the trees, high up on mountain sides, or under hedges living as the wee folk Living in nature as they had before
I'm from Australia , I'm an Aboriginal Australian. My grandmother was from Ireland and want to say this stuff is beautiful . Respect and love my long lost brothers and sisters across the seas ✊❤
That’s beautiful, I’m from Australia myself, though I’m a white Australian, I agree with you completely. Listening to this stuff really makes me miss them. Love this country to bits but I also want to go home, yknow. Have a nice day!
Aboriginals are the in between form of early humans and many groups of modern people split from them between blacks, caucasion and Orientals in phenotypes. From there the many groups carried the stone age hunter and witch dr life style and took it to their respective continent. Europe, asia and America's.
as a kid i never understood why my dad liked this type of music of road trips. as an older man i understand its because its beautiful to listen to. makes me proud to have roots in Celtic culture
Me too, my Grand Da was raised in Malin Head. He was a vol. serving primarily in intelligence during the War for Independence. He was recruited by intelligence officers at 16. My mother named me after him. Up Donegal!!!
The moment I heard the singing I was immediately overwhelmed with a feeling of comfort and I dont know why. It's a feeling I havent felt in awhile, thank you truly
I have just seen this comment and laughed, even if its 2 years old. I am back here listening to this song obsessively again (as well as the version by Liam O Manolai) because another singer I follow, American i believe but looks Irish and has skill for the language and singing styles... She (Malinda) put up a short video of her singing a song called Dulaman and it was so beautiful and i was struggling to explain... So i settled for saying how beautiful it was and how happy it made me feel because it felt like home, it was beautiful and yet comfortable and calming. This led me to leaving a second message asking if she had heard this song as i felt she would appreciate the skill and beauty of it. Then i linked this video and Liam O Manolai's version too... It does sound very different in a male voice but i love both versions so much for the differences they bring to the song. Being reminded of how much i love the different styles of music from across Ireland and Northern Ireland has sent me on a new hyperfocus that will have me listening to nothing else for about a year and researching obsessively 😂
I flew over Ireland in my early 20s and asked some one....:"what is that beautiful green thing in the sea. I heard Ireland and some sensation of something dropping from my solar plexus overwhelmed me. Tears started falling. I absolutely must go back and be there.
i see so many people of different nationalities and ethnical backgrounds sharing beautiful words about the emotions this song brought them and it honestly makes the whole experience even more amazing. no matter who you are and where you are in the world, this language and these voices sound compelling to everyone. ireland is a beautiful country of amazing people who endured so much suffering throughout the history and are still standing tall and carrying on the magical songs of their ancestors. tons of love from moscow
I think the best thing, coming from a grandpa and a father, this beautiful song is being passed onto the child by the mother. Ain't nothing more beautiful than it.
I have garls, 😁, I am a Celt and I let them know that they must honor their heritage, and they honor me, I know very little Scottish Gaelidgh, so I send them things that are beautiful to me. They respect me. ❤ and peace.
There's absolutely nothing in this world that pierces my soul quite like the soft singing of an Irish woman. I'm always left with this enchanted and sereen feeling and maybe in a manner of speaking a little sad afterwards. As if I'm missing a home I never knew.
Well said sir , i agree. The voice of an Irish woman holds the ancient ethereal sound of Ireland . This is heard in the voice and music of Enya, Sinead o' Connor , Delores o' Riardon from The Cranberries and others . Check out Madelyn Monaghan singing Roisin Dubh ...a truely enchanting gaelic song sung beautifully.
It amazes me that when you have Irish in your blood (my grandparents were born in Mayo), traditional music sung in Irish touches your soul like no other. Just beautiful!
I have a tad bit of Irish in me, though I've got most forms of Caucasian in me ngl, but I think it's just the beauty and simplicity of such a stunning folk song that touches the soul. It sounds like such a home-y song (I'm listening without English translation). Beautiful.
Everyone thinks the music and language is beautiful, but I rarely see it move them to tears the way it does me. Nor do I hear songs in other languages touch me the same way as ceol as Gaelige. I often get emotional hearing good music. However, Irish music makes me feel things deep down in my soul. It makes me nostalgic for a place in time I've never been, but somehow seem to hold memory of.
Once upon a time, thisa made me cry for "HOME"; after many moons of grieving, its a poetic silence on my soul and eye as I just appreciate the sound of the stream in a maidens voice. Thank you ladies of Grace for the sweet gift of these songs! Be well!
It's saddens me as a irish man that once we got our country back from the British in 1922. That we didn't start speaking Irish again.. if we did we would all be speaking it now.. its sad what the brits took away..
Learn the language. You can speak two you know. Preserve the culture but use English for its economic advantages, especially tourism and the ability to travel nearly everywhere in the world. PS. and to make youtube comments.
there is a term of affection that was used by Irish people to describe anyone of Irish descent, born anywhere in the world and regardless of how small the percentage of being Irish, they are called " Plastic Paddies" as in not the real thing, but the same in every way,
I have a house in Cape Breton which is the only remnant of Gaelic speaking in North America. They've started to teach it again in schools. Also home to the only Gaelic college in N. America. Would love to hear this performed there. The song is beautiful beyond words.
I have never heard a more beautiful sound in me life. I so wish I could hear those words with an understanding of that language which was lost in this Irish life lived in the USA.
@@CelticSongs it was overwhelming stepping foot onto Ireland, walking about in St. Stephens on the green in the park, seeing the type of boats that carried them to America
I have no idea to this day what these two Gaelic ladies are singing about. Truth is, I don't want to know. Some things are best left unsaid. I'd like to think they're singing about something so beautiful, it can't be expressed in words, and makes your heart ache because of it.
Why did they remove the original upload. This is my daughters lullaby and just realized we have been listening to this version the last several months. Thank you so much for the re upload, my daughter Eleanor appreciates it.
I lived in Dublin for 3 years and during this time I had the change to travel to the west cost of Ireland, me and my friend drove all the Ring of Kerry making stops in different places, whenever we saw a breathtaking landscape we parked along the road to look at it, listening to this song reminds me all those beautiful places in Ireland.

Well spoken! I am glad one knows somewhat of the history and is willing to share!. Thank you and hope all is and will continue to be well for you and yours. Be strong my gallant heroes! You are worth it!
Eileanóir is not the narrator. It's her admirer. "Mo ghrá den chéad fhéachaint thú, a Eileanóir na Rún" "You're my love from first sight, o Eleanor of the Secrets".
Beautiful voices. Ireland got a rich heritage and couture, I read that Ireland and the Irish people saved literature during the dark and Middle Ages. They have a lot of castles that go back to the 1100 hundreds and even before that and they know the history of most of these old buildings. I read that there’s a manmade wall and building that are over 5,000 years old in Ireland.
@JohnPatrickLayden Glad you liked it. What you say is true, Ireland maintained Western culture while the Dark Ages settled on Europe Irish monks and scribes maintained the very record of Western civilisation -- copying manuscripts of Greek and Latin writers, both pagan and Christian, while libraries and learning on the continent were forever lost Ireland become "the isle of saints and scholars" -- and thus preserve Western culture. Not only are their old castles but also Newgrange ia prehistoric monument in Ireland, built during the Neolithic period, around 3200 BC, making it older than Stonehenge and the Egyptian pyramids.
If mankind ever discovers another habitable planet and has a way to get there, I say populate it with irish people for a thousand years before anyone else is allowed to visit. This way we can see what language and culture would of created without being handicapped by the british.
I'm Indian living in Australia for a decade now. Arthurian legends and Celtic culture has fascinated me from my childhood. Celtic music gives me such a peaceful feeling like Im living in the Irish highlands.
I watched this and felt really at peace, like really at peace, I've been struggling with depression for the last 3 years, maybe more, I've kind of lost count at this point, and this song put that at complete ease for the first time in... well a really long time. So I listened, all the way through, and then gave it a few minutes, and I'm already back, and I feel at peace again. This is some of the most beautiful stuff I've heard, and I'm glad it's part of my family heritage. I'm American but I'm a 4th generation American, my family came here from Galway and Cork in 1912 and 1914.
I am grateful to have been connected to a truly genuine lad in dublin who has introduced so much of his Irish culture that I was unaware of..... He has opened my eyes to the gaelic lingo, the irish people as a whole, the native american monument to which we connected with my native american culture. Our strong connection is through music and I now appreciate a good irish trad and this song was so beautifully performed. Thanks for sharing. Shout out of the Bay Area of California 💚 Also, a huge thank you to Ireland for those of you who donated to the Navajo Nations during covid to helping my tribe. Sending much 💚
Thank you for taking the time to leave that comment. We have a bond with Native Americans which was sealed during the darkest hours of the famine with a donation by the Choctaw tribe to Ireland in 1847. It is fitting and our honour to return that wonderful act of good will and kindness during your struggles with Covid.
The Irish and Ireland remember the Choctaw Nation's generosity during the trail of tears and Native Americans suffering. We have a lot of historical empathy with Native American and indigenous peoples across the world and are happy to share our culture with you.
Earphones in full blast with your eyes closed and youll not get much closer to true peace makes me feel pride to be irish and both of your voices are beautiful 😍
Hearing these beautiful women sing makes me long for a time and place I’ve never been but recognize o so well in my heart and soul.. god bless the Irish
I love Heartland...........the Canadian series.........My wife and I find our shared soul there.........Ireland and Scotland are both part of our heritage.....so we both share this ballad of Ireland
That was just beautiful, don’t understand the words, but it seems to me that this language is made for singing, it just flows so well. Thank you from a English fan.
im not from irland but theres such a warm feeling inside my brain and my flesh when i hear such beautifull songs even i dont understand the words. Thank you for your voices
I'm an Anishinaabekwe from Michigan. Listening to any ancient language makes me envious of those who know them, mine was taken from me. I long to speak the language of my grandfathers and mothers before me and do my best to learn. This song is absolutely gorgeous.
As someone from Irish and Scottish Ancestry, I don't understand, but I love it. Brings peace to my heart... I so desperately want to come back, to my Ancestry's homeland, and learn the language
There is so much soul in their singing and this song. It's an experience to just hear this. Thanks to the ladies and all the musicians in this. Cheers!
Beautiful voice, beautiful ladies, beautiful words sung in its native language. The culture and people die when their language is forgotten. Much respect from Dixie--the American South.
I am of Irish heritage, though unfortunately I have not visited Ireland I definitely plan too. Hearing this language genuinely brings tears to my eyes, it sounds so magical. It is the language of the celtic warriors and their adventures across Ireland, the patriots who died throughout the centuries protecting their lands, the men women and children who starved yet still prevailed. It's the song of the Irish 🇮🇪
I m part native. American with Scotts Irish heritage. I suppose they part of me. Finds this soothing to my ear. A sweet. Sound. That soothes the heart. And warms the soul,,,
I had a complete roundtrip in Ireland in 2013 (Dublin, Kilkenny, Cork, Dingle, Tralee, Galway, the Aran Islands). It was beautiful. What took me most was was the landscape, the nice people to talk to and the music. Ireland itself it a beautiful place.
Yes so beautiful my grandfather was Irish and came to Australia at 17 and cleared his farm on his own to plant wheat and have sheep pasture paddocks Ireland is beautiful 😊😊
Im greek and i lived in Scotland for a couple of years when i was young. This culture is amazing, i was impressed!! The music the history is fascinating!!
Very few sounds more beautiful than Gaelic sung like this. If ever there was a language more well suited for beautiful voices, I have yet to hear it. Thank you for keeping it alive & for blessing the world with your talents. When I have trouble sleeping, songs like these are the perfect lullaby.
Their singing does indeed entice the birds from the trees, and all of us from around the world! Oh, to be in Ireland right this minute, maybe at the Fanad Head .ighthouse!
@@CelticSongs Yes true, we only got the sea shanty's of those that travelled here passed down , their songs of excitement of a new life and the lament, longing for home. but nothing before that. but hearing this it is always alive in all of us across the globe, I want to come home.
I don't have any Irish blood that I'm aware of, but this resonates with me in a way I can't explain. Fighting is fun and romance is satisfiyingly melancholy.
@@CelticSongs Most unfortunate. I don't seem to be able to select that out to put it into a translator. Otherwise, I would have to install a Russian keyboard to input it. I don't know what made you think I am Russian.
Apologies Mark, that was a response for another comment, from a Russian fan of the music. The Lady Eleanor was very lucky to have been immortalised in this song
I envy the songs your culture has. In my area, I don’t feel like I have deep roots, especially since my grandparents came from other countries and forgot how to speak their original language. There is also not much culture from their past left and I sometimes long for things like traditions, songs, a language I truly feel a connection to.
I'm very proud of my heritage. Finding who í am and where my family is from has helped my life come full circle we have such a beautiful history. I love this song.
That Celtic style of vocals, so crystal clear and sweet, is just stunning. Those women could sing a grocery list and it would bring tears to one's eyes.

Beautiful voices. Ireland got a rich heritage and couture, I read that Ireland and the Irish people saved literature during the dark and Middle Ages. They have a lot of castles that go back to the 1100 hundreds and even before that and they know the history of most of these old buildings. I read that there’s a manmade wall and building that are over 5,000 years old in Ireland.
@JohnPatrickLayden Glad you liked it. What you say is true, Ireland maintained Western culture while the Dark Ages settled on Europe Irish monks and scribes maintained the very record of Western civilisation -- copying manuscripts of Greek and Latin writers, both pagan and Christian, while libraries and learning on the continent were forever lost Ireland become "the isle of saints and scholars" -- and thus preserve Western culture. Not only are their old castles but also Newgrange ia prehistoric monument in Ireland, built during the Neolithic period, around 3200 BC, making it older than Stonehenge and the Egyptian pyramids.
Yes Newgrange older than the pyramids
If mankind ever discovers another habitable planet and has a way to get there, I say populate it with irish people for a thousand years before anyone else is allowed to visit. This way we can see what language and culture would of created without being handicapped by the british.
@the dude
What a marvelous thought.
Dude, well said.
I'm Indian living in Australia for a decade now. Arthurian legends and Celtic culture has fascinated me from my childhood. Celtic music gives me such a peaceful feeling like Im living in the Irish highlands.
That's great to hear
the expanded use of the Shruti in Irish traditional music isnt a total accident.
@@ifonlyicouldstop interesting.
First time I knew the translation due to subtitles. Now I truly understand "She was my Eleanor". Poignant
I watched this and felt really at peace, like really at peace, I've been struggling with depression for the last 3 years, maybe more, I've kind of lost count at this point, and this song put that at complete ease for the first time in... well a really long time. So I listened, all the way through, and then gave it a few minutes, and I'm already back, and I feel at peace again. This is some of the most beautiful stuff I've heard, and I'm glad it's part of my family heritage. I'm American but I'm a 4th generation American, my family came here from Galway and Cork in 1912 and 1914.
That is your ancestors healing power ❤️ God Bless you ❤️🍀❤️
Love from the motherland. Much love.
I am grateful to have been connected to a truly genuine lad in dublin who has introduced so much of his Irish culture that I was unaware of..... He has opened my eyes to the gaelic lingo, the irish people as a whole, the native american monument to which we connected with my native american culture. Our strong connection is through music and I now appreciate a good irish trad and this song was so beautifully performed. Thanks for sharing. Shout out of the Bay Area of California 💚 Also, a huge thank you to Ireland for those of you who donated to the Navajo Nations during covid to helping my tribe. Sending much 💚
Thank you for taking the time to leave that comment. We have a bond with Native Americans which was sealed during the darkest hours of the famine with a donation by the Choctaw tribe to Ireland in 1847. It is fitting and our honour to return that wonderful act of good will and kindness during your struggles with Covid.
Hello Janelle, how are you doing today.
The Irish and Ireland remember the Choctaw Nation's generosity during the trail of tears and Native Americans suffering. We have a lot of historical empathy with Native American and indigenous peoples across the world and are happy to share our culture with you.
Earphones in full blast with your eyes closed and youll not get much closer to true peace makes me feel pride to be irish and both of your voices are beautiful 😍
Hearing these beautiful women sing makes me long for a time and place I’ve never been but recognize o so well in my heart and soul.. god bless the Irish
You must have Irish in your veins if it resonates with you in such a meaningful way
I love Heartland...........the Canadian series.........My wife and I find our shared soul there.........Ireland and Scotland are both part of our heritage.....so we both share this ballad of Ireland
That was just beautiful, don’t understand the words, but it seems to me that this language is made for singing, it just flows so well. Thank you from a English fan.
Thank you so much, if you click cc you can click on english translations
I couldn't have said it better. It makes my ears and heart happy to know there's beauty like this.
@@CelticSongs Thank you! I loved it before I could understand it. I may have a small amount of Irish blood. But I love this music.
im not from irland but theres such a warm feeling inside my brain and my flesh when i hear such beautifull songs even i dont understand the words.
Thank you for your voices
Im not Celtic but really appreciate that you keep this ancient language alive
Thank god for having this musik
I don’t think I could live without it. ❤
I'm an Anishinaabekwe from Michigan. Listening to any ancient language makes me envious of those who know them, mine was taken from me. I long to speak the language of my grandfathers and mothers before me and do my best to learn. This song is absolutely gorgeous.
Lovely! Sending our love from Celtic Northern Portugal.
Sending the love back
My ancestors travelled to Ireland a long way back from either North Portugal or North Spain. Hence my surname Moran.
Liam O'Manaoli and Katrina Garcia sing a beautiful Galician song, 13th century, in both Irish and Galacian. It's on TH-cam.
Based on a poem written by Cearbhall Ó Dálaigh about a secret crush, basically. Beautiful music.
Thanks for sharing your knowledge
As someone from Irish and Scottish Ancestry, I don't understand, but I love it. Brings peace to my heart... I so desperately want to come back, to my Ancestry's homeland, and learn the language
There is so much soul in their singing and this song. It's an experience to just hear this. Thanks to the ladies and all the musicians in this. Cheers!
This voice looks like a piece of heaven.
Greetings from Romania 🇷🇴
For those who love this kind of songs all love from my heart ❤
I am from Austria and have goosebumps when i listen to this stunning irish/gaelic language. Amazing!
Beautiful voice, beautiful ladies, beautiful words sung in its native language. The culture and people die when their language is forgotten. Much respect from Dixie--the American South.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a comment
These women are Gifted with beautiful singing voices...............
Im Irish and a fluent Irish speaker..these words flow so well together ❤️ fantastic stuff 👏
I am of Irish heritage, though unfortunately I have not visited Ireland I definitely plan too. Hearing this language genuinely brings tears to my eyes, it sounds so magical. It is the language of the celtic warriors and their adventures across Ireland, the patriots who died throughout the centuries protecting their lands, the men women and children who starved yet still prevailed. It's the song of the Irish 🇮🇪
My ancestors' language is so beautiful.
Every european or related to european alive today is genetically related to every person that was reproducing 1000 years ago in Europe. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Wow I have goosebump! She looks like a fairy and her voice is magical.
I m part native. American with Scotts Irish heritage. I suppose they part of me. Finds this soothing to my ear. A sweet. Sound. That soothes the heart. And warms the soul,,,
Well said!
Your ancestors most likely knew as much of this language as you lol, but you don't need Gael ancestors to enjoy music like this
I had a complete roundtrip in Ireland in 2013 (Dublin, Kilkenny, Cork, Dingle, Tralee, Galway, the Aran Islands). It was beautiful. What took me most was was the landscape, the nice people to talk to and the music. Ireland itself it a beautiful place.
Yes so beautiful my grandfather was Irish and came to Australia at 17 and cleared his farm on his own to plant wheat and have sheep pasture paddocks Ireland is beautiful 😊😊
Celts always knew that music and songs can be magic!
Im greek and i lived in Scotland for a couple of years when i was young. This culture is amazing, i was impressed!! The music the history is fascinating!!
This song is in Irish and originates from the West Coast of Ireland. A place as beautiful as the Greek Islands but without the weather 😀
They speak a dialect of the Irish language in Scotland called Scots gaelic ,
Keep culture and traditions alive!
This is absolutely beautiful to listen to
Couldn't agree more!
That girl is devastatingly beautiful. Bless her.
What a beautiful voice, beautiful song , for my beautiful granddaughter Ivy Eleanor ...xxx
intercultural appreciation over the song shows how deeply connected we are at the root.
Very few sounds more beautiful than Gaelic sung like this. If ever there was a language more well suited for beautiful voices, I have yet to hear it. Thank you for keeping it alive & for blessing the world with your talents.
When I have trouble sleeping, songs like these are the perfect lullaby.
Thank you for that supportive comment. Appreciate it
@@CelticSongs thank you for sharing your art with us. Look forward to more in the future!
I don't know why but this song always brings tear in my eyes. Truly a great song and lovely performance.
It's reaching you on a deep level
in one word - BEAUTIFUL 💚💙
Their singing does indeed entice the birds from the trees, and all of us from around the world! Oh, to be in Ireland right this minute, maybe at the Fanad Head .ighthouse!
My family has been out of Ireland for 150 years (Australia) and this still somehow calls to me.
Its deep within you only to be awoken by the music they would have listened to and the songs they would have sung
@@CelticSongs Yes true, we only got the sea shanty's of those that travelled here passed down , their songs of excitement of a new life and the lament, longing for home. but nothing before that. but hearing this it is always alive in all of us across the globe, I want to come home.
it is so beautiful. I don't need to understand the words at all to see it. From Russia with love
Such beautiful music and a beautiful culture! We had best make a stand to save it!
Thanks
Thanks so much. Your support is greatly appreciated
This is just such a healing and heartwarming music! Very beautiful! ❤
I’ve been listening to Celtic music for as long as I remember without speaking the language at all but somehow it still makes my heart smile
‘The great Gaels of Ireland are the men that God made mad. For all their wars are merry, and all their songs are sad.’
-G.K. Chesterton
I don't have any Irish blood that I'm aware of, but this resonates with me in a way I can't explain. Fighting is fun and romance is satisfiyingly melancholy.
This song represents what life is about for me. I’m glad to be here with all of you. God bless!
What a great compliment
So amazingly beautiful
I keep coming back to this
Wow that's hauntingly beautiful what voices
Deep ,strong ,sensible , a beautiful way to the past …so evocative ..
Very eloquently put
Beautiful song, and beautifully performed. The Lady Eleanor. Lucky lady to have musical folk around her.
Благодаря ти
@@CelticSongs Most unfortunate. I don't seem to be able to select that out to put it into a translator. Otherwise, I would have to install a Russian keyboard to input it. I don't know what made you think I am Russian.
Apologies Mark, that was a response for another comment, from a Russian fan of the music. The Lady Eleanor was very lucky to have been immortalised in this song
Two wonderful singers complement each other perfectly.
I'm asian.. but i'm fascinated with the gaelic way of singing.. i love both irish n scotts airs..
Songs like this, sung with heart, feeling and pride for your heritage are what gives me hope for this world. Thanks for the gift of music and hope. :)
Thank you for that lovely comment
Try Eileen Aroon The Makpeake Family youtube
Of all the ladies in this group (the 1st singer), her voice sinks into my soul far more than the others.
Beautiful! Greetings from Celtic Austria - keep your traditions alive!
I think to this at least 30 times since I first heard it last week. It really has touched me and made me feel hope...
I envy the songs your culture has. In my area, I don’t feel like I have deep roots, especially since my grandparents came from other countries and forgot how to speak their original language. There is also not much culture from their past left and I sometimes long for things like traditions, songs, a language I truly feel a connection to.
So fine to see a younger generation of performers keeping traditional music alive. Beautiful voices.
Couldn't agree more with both of the points you make
This was sang so beautifully, these women are absolutely angelic in every way. I really loved this version of this!
Glad you like it
the intense sapphic energy of this video is blowing me away
Thank God that u ladies are carrying on the Celtic Gaelic languages in your song. From The Netherlands with Love. SUPER!
Thank you, bedankt
I'm very proud of my heritage. Finding who í am and where my family is from has helped my life come full circle we have such a beautiful history. I love this song.
