For island fires and family has honestly saved me last night. I nearly reached rock bottom again, but hearing such lyrics made me remember there are other people in this world who can feel such deep feelings and it's not only me being so different. You probably won't see that message, but thank you so much for your music Dermot.
❤
❤sending love and light. Hold on. It won’t always feel the way it’s felt.
keep at it
Emotions last a moment, but your actions in a moment can last forever.
Sold his soul for money...😂😢
“In a full room I’m the only one she’s smiling at”
That’s a whole love story right there
honestly this is his best version of For Island Fires and Family. Absolutely the best version.
Hands Down
Yes. Ready to have my heart shattered. Let's do this Dermot.
Best day ever😍
Ha ha ha Ha! 😂🤣
Love comes and goes be patient this next time. I know where ur coming from truly. It's the shattering soul death in ur heart. Im finally feeling better and it's been 7 months sence she left me. God bless
😂😂 very well said
If your Inward feeling person, that hides. You need to go by yourself. Because this music will shatter you
“In a full room I’m the only one she’s smiling at”
R R yikes this always got me.
It's my fav line aswell.
Well i think that as well. Also im looking at that moon to which means we are both looking at the same thing from distant locations. :D
😭😭😭😭 I used to be
something about his performance is so childlike and vulnerable, like he is not afraid at all to be completly honest and true. so touching
So agree! Very beautiful and raw
Well Tracy is woman but I do agree
Araqaaaà
"Even though this life, this love, is brief I've got some people to carry me" - hits me right in the feels, that one.
Same here bud, getting it tattooed on me soon!
The whole audience kept saying this part over and over at his concert. It gave me goosebumps...it was such an uplifting spiritual feeling that I'll never forget
Who will carry me**
What does this mean exactly?
@@Caraokayokayokay It's two months late but I think the meaning is that he has people who trust in him and suport him in his life, at least that was what I understod
Yup “everything I hold dear resides in those eyes”.... well there goes my emotional stability for the day
Can we give hand to the sound engineer 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
His music makes me want to take the leap, do things I never thought I could handle, express my feelings to the ones who need to hear.
❤️
“I used to dream that you would talk to me.” Love his performance 🥰
Damn. He's such a beautiful songwriter. For Island Fires and Family made me think about the first girl I ever loved, she's also the "one who got away". I was 17 and completely oblivious to how much I actually loved her, and how special of a connection we shared. I didn't realize it until a few years after we lost contact with each other. I've tried finding her again, with no luck. It's been 9 years and she still pops in my head from time to time, like right now. Where ever she is, I hope she's happy in life and I hope she can somehow feel that I still think of her.
😪😪😪😪😪😴
Go find her.
What happened to her
🥹 thanks for sharing that Evan x
Lyrically I believe there is no one who can compete with him, and I love artists like Benjamin Francis leftwich and Peter Bradley Adams. He is just in another world. His music has saved me sadly multiple times
God bless you this new year 🎉
Power over me:
I wanna be king in your story
I wanna know who you are
I want your heart to beat for me
Oh I
Want you to sing to me softly
'Cause then I'm outrunning the dark
That's all that love ever taught me
Oh I
Call and I'll rush out
All out of breath now
You've got that power over me, my my
Everything I hold dear resides in those eyes
You've got that power over me, my my
The only one I know, the only one on my mind
You've got that power over me (my my)
Got that power over me (my my)
You've got that power over me
Remember the lake in the moonlight?
Remember you shivered and shone?
I'll never forget what you looked like
On that night
But I know that time's gonna take me
I know that day's gonna come
I just want the devil to hate me
Oh I
Call and I'll rush out
All out of breath now
You've got that power over me, my my
Everything I hold dear resides in those eyes
You've got that power over me, my my
The only one I know, the only one on my mind
You've got that power over me (my my)
Got that power over me (my my)
You've got that power over me
It was all in doubt
They were all around
So we'll hide away and never tell
You decide if darkness knows you well
That lesson of love, all that it was
I need you to see
You've got that power over me, my my
Everything I hold dear resides in those eyes
You've got that power over me, my my
The only one I know, the only one on my mind
You've got that power over me
(Woo)
I know that I let her down, no
Let her down, no
You've got that power over me, my my
Everything I hold dear resides in those eyes
Got that power over me, my my
The only one I know, the only one on my mind
You've got that power over me
For Island Fires and Family:
How it must feel to be a bird
Roamin' lonely over sea air
How it must feel to be a bird
London, Paris, underneath
And I'll wait on my own
(Ooh, hmm, ooh)
And I couldn't tell you enough that I'm sorry
And no, you couldn't tell me enough that you love me
But she's bringin' the moon and stars to me
Damn permanent reverie
And even though this life, this love is brief
I've got some people who carry me
Wasn't it love as soon as we knew each other properly?
Livin' 'bout half right 'til a certain person got to me
Nothin' is secret, everythin's sacred, how it ought to be
Under the moonlight on a clear night
On rooftops is where I want to be
Sometimes I'm like a child, that's somethin' I can't release
Dreams of her comin' home, sweet home
And I'm tellin' you home is so sweet
Said you reminded me of the summertime, and I still mean that
In a full room, I'm the only one she's smilin' at
So wouldn't you let me know if you were thinkin' less of me?
That's what she asked me
What was promised, what we both agreed
But truthfully, if you ever go
You'll drop me straight to Hell, the 7th circle
And I was talkin' with you earlier
We were open and vulnerable, it was wonderful
I, I used to dream that you would talk to me
I used to dream that you would talk to me
And I couldn't tell you enough that I'm sorry
And no, you couldn't tell me enough that you love me
But she's bringin' the moon and stars to me
Damn permanent reverie
And even though this life, this love is brief
I've got some people who carry me
You know that feelin' when you think your heart is gonna come right out through your shirt?
Get it a couple times a year
But I've been gettin' it more often with her
Now when I'm face to face with death, I'll grab his throat
And ask him, "How does it hurt?"
Up in those golden moments, growin' old too quickly
Was he thinkin' of her?
But she's bringin' the moon and stars to me
Damn permanent reverie
And even though this life, this love is brief
I've got some people who carry me
Dude... You brilliant Bastard. Got me crying in my car and shit. The lyrics to "For Island Fires" hit a special tortuous place for me, and your delivery is otherworldly man. Truly amazing work.
His vulnerability is part of what makes him so incredible. There's no other talent like this guy right here.
Probably my favorite versions of both songs.
"Everything I hold dear, resides in those eyes"😳💕😍👍 what PLANET is this baby from!!!?!? Dermot knows romance better than an "old school" "man"!!!🙄 And I use the word "man" VERY loosely!!!😂🤣😂 The strings also kill it here too!!!👍💕💕💕
This Voice is one in a million. I Love his energie !
There’s not a single song of his that doesn’t give me goosebumps. He has to be the best artist out there currently & I can’t wait to see where else he goes. He’s so talented!
He could ruin my life and I’d literally thank him.
im a 38 year old male and i thin khes the greatest artist ,writer ive ever heard ...blows me away,makes me smile and cry and i listen to him daily
all artists are unique in there own ways. cannot put that title on this artist . yes yes very soul spirited but defs not "the best artist" Arthur gunn goes just as hard
For Island Fires and Family is one of the best songs I´ve ever heard in my life
I seriously cannot stop listening to your music...and it doesn't matter how often I hear your voice, I get goosebumps every time
The guy is just unreal. What a talent
S
his singing and songs are pure poetry, just wonderful xx
You got that power over all of us, Dermot.
You have a way of making me miss someone I’ve never met... but I can’t stop pondering the question, if maybe the person I’m missing is me?
I want James Blake to break my heart and Dermot to mend it...
Damn, well said 👏
His voice feels like a vibration resonates through my soul 🤍❤️🔥
Hello Nadhira
How are you doing?
Thanks for your love and support most especially for being an amazing fan love ❤
It's nice meeting you here.
Oh my god, I have no words... that voice with those instruments, perfection!!
🙌🙌
It seems like For Island Fires has been my favorite song for a long time now and I want to know where the new album is. Who is still listening to this here at the end of 2020?
'Power Over Me' with strings? Gorgeous. Acoustic 'For Island Fires and Family' is breathtaking and haunting. Your music is soul-soothing, thank you.
I would DIE for a whole album of the Mahogany version of his songs. I've got so many chills everytime.
Jesus Christ man. Just when I think I have heard EVERYTHING from him and couldn't be blown away anymore?? I find this!! And I'm an old lady with babies older than Dermot!! Absolutely LOVE everything that comes from this man's soul. Because that's exactly where ALL his music comes from!! Epitome of the perfect artist!! Please don't let corporate labels change a single thing about the you that we all love so much!!!💕👍🤞😊💕💕💕💕😘
This is where Dermot's music takes me....to a place I once knew and fight every single day to get back to...."For her soft blue eyes that dance on my mahogany skin under the pink moonlight and for that birth mark on her bottom lip that I still crave to bite till I am drunk on her ecstacy and passed out only by the fumes of our love, still..."
Hello dear sorry to disturb you I was on my scrolling mode when I saw your comment and sent a text hope you don't find it pestering?
If nature and every element on earth would have one single voice, it would sound something like this
qazzimoda1 completely agree
This should be one of the biggest musicians on the planet. His lyrics and the lines he puts together and how he emphasizes specific words leaves me stunned. It’s amazing
People rather run behind stupid swallow pop singers they appreciate real dept soul singers cause they don't it
Still falling for this version of “For island fires and family” ❤️
His voice has got that power over me.
😍
The most genuine "pop" star that has appeared in the past god knows how many years. No thousands of tattoos, no vocoders, no bullshit. Just so f...ing REAL. Big thumbs up, cheers from Serbia
I'm so glad this _king_ is finally getting more recognition for his music
Totally deserved 🙌
About time seeing him on a Mahogany session! I randomly found him on Spotify back in 2016, been great to see him grow and develop as an artist ever since.
His voice and delivery is just so spot on - so good to see how big he's getting now
Yep. Exactly the same journey with me. Saw him last year in an intimate gig in Bristol, so seeing him blowing up and selling out shows this year is
same
i've never been so much in love with someone's voice
Hi Angel👋
That. That was brilliant. Ohh Dermot Kennedy you are a poet. I can't wait for the world to know you. 2019 is yours sir.
2019 is gonna be his year 🙌
I couldn't agree more. The kid can do it!!!!
2020 too 👍🏻
He's easily the best in the game right now.
Check out Foy Vance
It’s like the oscillation of his voice breaks your heart, but the unequivocal emotion behind it puts it back together … in a better way
My husband is in lock up in Utah he heard Power over me and told me to listen to it the music you make had blessed my life thank you kindly
Hello beautiful 👋 can we chat if you don't Mind. I've had difficult times with relationship
He carries it on a silver tray and serves it hot.I eat like I've never tasted anything before.I am full but I just can't stop consuming.
Love this guy. Screw the golden gate.. Dermot creates the best bridges..
I turn my radio on the MAX volume when listening to Dermot.
Aaaaaand this did NOT disappoint....between Dermot, Hozier and Foy Vance I'm moving to Ireland tomorrow
And many more like Hudson Taylor, wyvern lingo and thanks brother 💚💚💚
@@caitlinmcdonald607 hell yes, wyvern lingo, letter to willow!!
I’m Scottish/English but they make me want to have a half Irish wedding 😍🥰
I've replayed this so many times and it's better each time...
The power of his emotions somehow drains mine and I just wanna sit here and cry.
Not to mention the lyrics.
So so beautiful my favorite version of power of me it tells a darker story than the original
Fuckkkkkk yesssssssss Dermot!!!!
This deserves FAR more views! The way he flips the studio version into this is just brilliant. A true artist knows how to make a live version of a song better than the studio version. Simply amazing!
🙌🙌🙌

His voice really hits every fiber in my body.
I heard his voice for the first time about a month ago singing "Times Like These" on Live Lounge Allstars with numerous other artists. It was HIS voice that stopped me dead in my tracks. I had to look him up. He became THE soundtrack for my time in quarantine. His music gives me hope.
This guy has been given an incredible gift. He is beyond a great musician. There is something in him that touches your soul
thats god buddy ...coming straight through from him to us !
Saw him at the Neptune in Seattle. He’s so amazing live. His voice is legit unreal. Love him. If you get the chance to see him live... take it. :)
👌👌
Why are we so fortunate, us living beings, at this time now, able to witness such pure vocals from a man? God damn.
He builds me up then breaks me down to take me to the places I didn’t even know I needed to be taken to. What an incredible voice, moves me beyond measure , keep making magic Dermot ❤️
Perfectly said 😊
Got Jesus?
@@cambo6911 Jesus does not exist. This guy is actually a real person. Not some mythical being in the sky.
@@maqwet4643 your opinion means nothing to me, it's spawn from the lack of knowledge and spiritual awareness.
Take care
Beautifully said
This is as close the modern generation is going to get to traditional Irish music, and thank God for Dermot Kennedy providing it. Beautiful in every aspect
The boy's got soul... I feel this song's power over me
I can remember listening to Dermot on TH-cam back when he was busking in Ireland and just knowing that he had that burning desire to succeed.
It’s nice to see people succeed :)
You got that power over me
I'll never forget what you look like
How did I miss this session of dermot. ♡♡ sigh dermot your amazing
Man I heard you for the first time tonight on the tonight show and I was blown away! You left me speachless.. Thank you
Hauntingly beautiful versions of both songs. 🥰
😍
when he said my my for the first me i fell in love
😍
Raw and furious Dermot. I love it 💜💜💜
👌👌
Oh that instrumental! 😍 You HAVE to come to Madrid!
This comes straight from the heart...to poor right into the cracks of every broken soul ♡
HE's simply the BEST
I like how he doesn't have an image, he's always in tshirts and his head's buzzed lol
Really hope that's something that doesn't change too much about the dude, too.
That kind of IS his image I think. Which is cool
That is his image
Lol you're right. I went to his concert in Dallas awhile back and he played the show in sweatpants and a flannel shirt!
@@garrittoplays1766 Hahaha! Bloody sweatpants. Haha! Got to love him for it.
This is my first time hearing this guy, and I’m so glad I followed the rabbit hole on this one. He’s so pure, and gave me goosebumps. This man is going places
Love this so much. For such a small country, Ireland is full of talented artists 🇮🇪🙌🏻❤️
It's a privilege to have the opportunity to watch and listen to this wonderful, translucent artist. Thank you Dermot and Mahogony.
sidney brien did you mean transcendent?
How can you find the right words to describe this experience? Power over Me has this amazing otherwordly music while For island Fires and Family has these lyrics...they hit you right in the spot...Unforgettable
Thank you Mahogany for introducing me to SO MANY amazing artists I wasn’t privileged enough to know beforehand!! Another beautiful voice for me to fall in love with! Alsoooo, any chance of getting Ray Lamontagne on here, would love to hear a session from him! Also Anna McLuckie would be amazing also! ❤️❤️
Mahogany-best decision you’ve made all year! I can never get enough of Dermots storytelling - my heart strings willingly loosen up and un tie themselves. ❤️
Makes me remember why I love music so much. Absolutely stunning as always.
Strings are sick with his voice and pure, raw emotion!!!!💕😍👍💕 Love EVERYTHING that comes from him!!! This was stellar!!👍💕😍
Your voice and those strings. You’ve topped Amber Run’s mahogany session as my favorite 😍🎶
Then again you did come in with the upper hand, being Dermot and all.
FANTASTIC!!!!!!
💜💙🧡❤️
Hello princess how are you doing today ❤
This 2 songs make me not feel sad, but kinda happy in a weird way like sadhappy at the same time. Becuse when i listen to his music the lyrics makes me sad but happy about life. Think how beautiful it is to even exist.
#yeahifeelitnow
Couldn't have put it better myself. To be able to feel such complex emotions, and be alive at the same time as a man who can summarise your emotions in a poem, in a way better than you ever could.
For Island Fires and Family makes me cry every time I hear it. It really pulls at the heart.
Legendary ! He needs a big blanket and a hug
I could listen to his voice on loop for the rest of my life 😍💕
His voice is so powerful! I’m so glad I discovered you Dermont!
When i found him on Spotify years back, I was so mind blown, because his voice is just so addictive; it makes things to my heart. I'm so happy that he's finally getting the recognition that he deserves. :) x
never heard this guy before, it randomly came up on a playlist.. HOLY CRAP amazing voice lol
I actually stumbled across Dermot Kennedy while watching Hozier's Mahogany session years ago. One of Dermot's videos popped up in my suggested playlist and it was love at first listen. Dermot has been on my daily rotation for going on four years now. His voice has carried me through some difficult and beautiful chapters of life. Back in 2017, I had tickets to go and see him at a gig in Montreal. It was a small venue since it was back before he was blowing up the way he is today and tickets were ridiculously inexpensive I think $25/piece. Unfortunately, I had to miss the show because my daughter was only a couple of months old and the three hour drive to the venue wasn't going to happen. I gifted my tickets to my brother and introduced him to Dermot's music. I am so happy to see the success that Dermot is receiving. It is so well deserved! I am keeping my fingers crossed that he may have more Canadian dates in the future but I am incredibly bummed to know that the next time it won't be a very intimate gig.
I hope you've been able to see Dermot live since Erin! x
Power Over Me brings to mind the relentless and endless love of the human spirit - for me? the love for sweet sweet dessert, oh the power over me, just one more slice, i'll pay any price.
I come back to this so often. 🥺🫶🏽
Hello pretty lady 👋
I had brain surgery recently, have paralysis and epilepsy from the surgery. Everyday is a battle, this song resonates with me so much. My health has so much power over me. I fight it every moment, and I will win.
Wishing you all the best on your recovery ♥️♥️♥️♥️
Dermot always touching our hearts😭❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you Mahogany Sessions for having Dermot Kennedy bless our hearts, ears and soul with this amazing performance! Must've been one heck of an experience to hear those acoustics echo in that space! Dermy, Derm dogz we love you mate
Incredible! Speaking to my soul.
I’ve just discovered this song and it makes my heart long for someone
Hello princess how are you doing today
Absolutely amazing. I have been a fan since there were only a handful, and I must say, as I've watched on his journey,.. I am SOOO glad that he is getting the recognition he so rightfully deserves. When it comes to lyrically and emotionally creating a song, he knows no limits. Just when I think I can't like his music more, he creates new renditions that go beyond my expectations. When it comes to music, some have the capability of being so intune, .. they become music themselves. I'm not a psycho fan, I just feel his music as it was intended,.. and i'll take a soul poored out on pages over the top 40s any day. Music is meant to be felt.. and he feels it. And he dedicates his profession to making sure we can feel it to. An amazing Artist. Thank you 🖤
Whenever my little baby can’t sleep, I play this and he is mesmerized and falls asleep. He has loved his voice singing since birth!
Since i first heard "Power over me" i wished a version like this one. And the second song.. just wow.. I can listen hours and hours to Mr. Kennedy
