Anyone who’s blown away by this, you can take it up another level by checking out her rendition of “Undertow” in the National Gallery of Ireland while harmonising with another phenomenal singer. Tell em I sent ya...
Yes what a fabulous recording as part of an Irish series of recordings during lockdown Lisa is also part of another great recording relaaed recently where many of the best known Irish female singers do a wonderful version of Dreams by the Cranberries. Check it out!
@@dermotlawton9808 Saw it, it's incredible.. it's not cringy celebrity stuff like other covers, it's genuinely decent artists showing their chops and performing a great song.
I knew about her since the time Damien Rice performed with her, so it was almost a blasphemy in my eyes that they wouldn't make Blue Diamond sing sooner in SU xD
She is absolutely great. But John Smith deserve a special mention too. Though is talent is quite discrete on this vid, he is a virtuoso guitar player and a great songwriter with an nice warm voice. His last album is worth checking, guys.
When she looks into the camera, my heart just melts. She has such a great voice and such talent at crafting lyrics and music together in the most beautiful ways.
The subtle john smith, one of few collaborators who have no need to compete and only enhance from love, and if possible she shines even more on these tracks. Dont know how lucky we are, alive in the right time of blossoming, each song fresh as a daisy, and shared freely all over the net. Even if ‘we are all finished’, we remain in good tune, good heart, good company
Lisa's ethereal voice seems like a whisper and pulls you in ...and then overwhelms the senses with its range and depth! Thanks for this amazing tiny concert!
Every time I watch this, and believe me, it's often, I am reduced to a shaking, tear drenched wreck during little bird. That song has always touched me as deeply as any piece of music ever has, but there is something about this performance that just absolutely cuts through every defense I've built up straight to the core of my soul and reminds me of just how little we all are. Hands down one of the most powerful songs I've ever heard. I adore Lisa and the music that she makes.
Tremendous. "Little Bird" is so beautiful, and I love "Passenger" even more when it's just...them, in the room with a mic. It reminds me of long ago summers. It swells my heart.
Two brilliant artists at one time at Tiny Desk... always a pleasure to listen to them. John Smith solo is a big number, too! Everybody who doesn't know his music should check it out soon! His voice is incredible! Not to speak of his guitar playing...
I thought I'd had a pretty good appreciation for Lisa and loved little bird but from a mahohnay session. First time watching her tiny desk and Passenger absolutely blew me away. The lyrics were super intricate and relatable
Lisa is Brilliant. I don't know if it is the great music or the Irish accent, but I Absolutely love her. Hope she comes to the States and plays in DC. I will be in the front row!
I've been listening to this a few times a day for a couple of weeks now, along with other LH vids. It's addictive. I love everything about Lisa and her music. Just bought her 2 CDs as well. Hope to see her live one day soon. I'm a John Smith fan, which is why I watched this originally and discovered Lisa.
I saw Lisa, Zoe Conway and John McIntyre in St Malachy's church, Castlewellan, County Down. They played A Prayer for the Dying - it literally had me in tears. Absolutely beautiful. Lisa is such a delight to watch and listen to. Such a voice.
Just want to add, as a lover of this concert, that I have just started checking out John Smith's own music on Spotify and it's awesome. If you love Lisa then go listen to John as well.
I could be in love only with her beauty and it would not be an exaggeration ..., but I am undecided if the artistic talent would not be even greater than the evocative beauty of this girl. OMG !!
Im gratefully here because of Matk Hogben. He is a remarkable living man off-grid near or in Canada (i believe, im still getting to know my new YTfriend) sharing his life experience which include the late stages of Parkinson's Disease ❤
i'm still blown away by rhis performance
I keep coming back!!!?
I listened to her music ten years ago and I keep returning again and again - she is a treasure.

The other singer's name is Loah.
I came back here not just to hear this TD again, but to thank you for the referral! It's all I've been listening to this week 💙
Tell who you sent me?
Found her after hearing blue diamond sing the words “Come on.” Shes definitely my new favorite person.
"Just let us adoreee you" 🎶🎶
Drea my favorite too!
I knew about her since the time Damien Rice performed with her, so it was almost a blasphemy in my eyes that they wouldn't make Blue Diamond sing sooner in SU xD
Drea, I consider it almost an obligation for us to divulge this girl. Not every generation is lucky enough to see the birth of a star !! We are !
I feel ashamed by saying the same thing, wish I found her before blue because my diamond is worse than pure Lisa
Little Bird is one of the most beautiful sounds I've ever heard in my entire life.
You should see "moudie" (movie) then. Little bird is the soundtrack
Agreed.
500 years ago or 500 years from now, this is world class performance
Can't believe this was 11 years ago already! Still enjoy every bit of it.
I love Lisa Hannigan, what a voice, what a talent! And it was great to meet her in person, lovely personality
No costume changes; no autotune; no dance routines; no attitude . . . just pure music. It's wonderful how much joy she gets (and gives) when singing.
This is one of the strongest NPR concerts I've heard! She exudes Irish passion with that incredible voice - when she sings the world is silent :-)
why cant there be a love button? she is beyond amazing. I have never heard another artist sound this amazing live
She is absolutely great. But John Smith deserve a special mention too. Though is talent is quite discrete on this vid, he is a virtuoso guitar player and a great songwriter with an nice warm voice. His last album is worth checking, guys.
John Smith is a beautiful guitar player and songwriter - I love when he and Lisa do Salty and Sweet together.
He does a great Schwarzenegger impression, too. GET TO DA CHOPPA
With that voice could you imagine being a little kid and having her sing you a lullaby?
Kind of like a more mainstream sounding Joanna Newsom.
boy do I have a treat for you
/watch?v=_2WgM-wiot0
i'm 65 and i would love her singing me a lullaby...
Watch Song of the Sea for exactly this ❤️
When she looks into the camera, my heart just melts. She has such a great voice and such talent at crafting lyrics and music together in the most beautiful ways.
lisa’s voice makes me feel many, many things. so soft and kind and raspy. good.
Irish whiskey and laurel.
seen her live years ago 2002 was blown away , have been a huge fan ever since, god bless you lisa hannigan. you are a sparkle in this world.
The subtle john smith, one of few collaborators who have no need to compete and only enhance from love, and if possible she shines even more on these tracks.

Well said, friend. Life is better and better, if we can but appreciate our blessings.
I’m glad that she decides to sing with her beautiful voice
I just watched Lisa pick up 3 different instruments and play them beautifully I love ❤️ her
Every time she opens her mouth pure magic comes out
She is out of this world... one of the most amazing artists!
For re-listening:
- "Knots": 0:00
- "Little Bird": 2:30
- "Passenger": 7:28
'Lille' is played often and much loved. Oh, and 'Safe Travels' is hilarious and the video is terrific fun.
Thanks
AnkyPank, now I can listen to Little Bird until I hate it!
Thank you kindly!
Lisa's ethereal voice seems like a whisper and pulls you in ...and then overwhelms the senses with its range and depth! Thanks for this amazing tiny concert!
My one celebrity crush and this version of Little Bird outshines the studio recording.
Lisa Hannigan ! You beauty ! Such a gorgeous woman with such a beautiful voice ! You're impeccable :)
I fully agree!
For me, no St Patrick's Day is complete without this lovely video.
Happy St Paddy's Day, 2019!

Got so emotionally involved that I just was about to applause at the end of Little Bird like if I was in the room... This is so lovely !*
pop music can't scratch me.... this shoots me in the heart, through and through, out my back yet fills me with more life than it takes away
I love NPR music, this is like when MTV was actually about music. Keep it up :)
"Alright old bean" She's amazing.
shes so cool
Hmm. Blue Diamond looks a lot different than I thought she would. My diamond.
Also, "Little Bird" brought me to tears.
MusicalFool 909 she’s the reason I started watching Steven Universe. Well worth the watch
Am smashed by LIsa's flex voice... esp. the last song, with John voice coming in too... what beauty ... very touching
Good Lord this is all so gorgeous... thank you Ireland....
Surely the best tiny desk concert ever?
Two brilliant artists at one time at Tiny Desk... always a pleasure to listen to them. John Smith solo is a big number, too! Everybody who doesn't know his music should check it out soon! His voice is incredible! Not to speak of his guitar playing...
No other word comes to mind but "adorable"...
I love the 2nd song most!!!loop for years
+тина Z ...LOOP FOR YEARS!!!
My favorite female voice.
warm and pretty voice
Never heard something like that before - yesss.
A talented and beautiful woman playing with a big heart. Well done.
Her smile when she held that note in the end. :) how lovely
I thought I'd had a pretty good appreciation for Lisa and loved little bird but from a mahohnay session. First time watching her tiny desk and Passenger absolutely blew me away. The lyrics were super intricate and relatable
my gosh her voice is so beautiful!!!
How cool and ethereal are Lisa little lilts.......play on, sing on...........
Lisa is Brilliant. I don't know if it is the great music or the Irish accent, but I Absolutely love her. Hope she comes to the States and plays in DC. I will be in the front row!
Now that's what i call music...amazing voice and cute as a little puppy.
"It was in tune when I bought it." Musicians are a light hearted bunch
I've been listening to this a few times a day for a couple of weeks now, along with other LH vids. It's addictive. I love everything about Lisa and her music. Just bought her 2 CDs as well. Hope to see her live one day soon. I'm a John Smith fan, which is why I watched this originally and discovered Lisa.
I found her via John Smith too. She's brilliant and I'll be there as soon as she is live at a location near to me!
I love you Lisa Hannigan
One of the great Tiny Desk Concerts, Lisa really is a marvel.
I just love the beautiful vocal harmonies on Passenger.
Why can I only thumb this up the once? Deserves so much more.
Such a cutie but when she sings she transcends earthly beauty.
i was thinking the same thing . its rare to hear a voice as beautiful as the one singing it
ugghhhhhh...what a fucking creep...
Fills my heart with love.....what beauty.
the most beautiful smile i've ever seen pure love
Mister Smiths palying on this is just great, blown away by both Amazing artist
Lisa is so lovely, knots = history of my life nowadays.
I saw Lisa, Zoe Conway and John McIntyre in St Malachy's church, Castlewellan, County Down. They played A Prayer for the Dying - it literally had me in tears. Absolutely beautiful.
Lisa is such a delight to watch and listen to. Such a voice.
Just want to add, as a lover of this concert, that I have just started checking out John Smith's own music on Spotify and it's awesome. If you love Lisa then go listen to John as well.
To know someone like her exits in the world gives me happy chills
It's also great to know that she EXISTS as well! 😯😂😀🤘
I could be in love only with her beauty and it would not be an exaggeration ..., but I am undecided if the artistic talent would not be even greater than the evocative beauty of this girl. OMG !!
Lisa is so sweet so charming She is a gift of God
what a perfect smile! such teeth. lovely songs
You know... Some music just touches the soul.
Lisa's voice exists in a melodic stream✨
we love lisa hannigan.
What a voice...wonderful

Love all the instruments, outputting through my Bose Companion 20 speakers.Justice to the artists that deserves it!

If you guys wonder the guy in background on "Little bird" etc is John Smith. You should check him out. He is great aswell.
I don't normally like female vocalists but holy cow, she is incredible. Thank you so much!!!
Have you managed to sort out that internal misogyny yet
everytime she hits that high note in Passenger i cry... what a beautiful soul.
absolutely sensational! wish she performed sail
HOLY CROW!! Just mesmerizing!
I met the little bird song in the movie Maudie. I was thrilled with the melody of this song.
underrated lyrics... yup! we all know, the voice, absolutely unreal!!
Wonderful, beautiful, lovely.
what else to say but - WONDERFULL ! - just wonderfull , thanks !!!
First song is best song i've heard for a while
Beautiful, Lisa has matured both as a artist and a person. It's fun to watch!
A gentleman amongst gentle men. Beautiful music.
Bring Lisa to Tiny Desk again
I don't know much about her. However, her appearance and mood are the styles that attract me.
Voice of an angel
Wow beautiful voice.
the voice of an angel
OMG!..I am in love! Big hugs Lisa. I love you. x
Lots of Love in each song. Thanks Lisa and thanks Tiny Desk :-)
