I'm in tears this evening listening to this again, my favourite vocal performance of hers. The pain in the words....just unbearable. Rest in peace Sinead.
I have loved this song since I first heard it in a folk club / pub in about 1968. Luke Kelly did a wonderful version - the sort of rendition where you think no-one else need ever bother to do it again. It's been done. I picked up a copy of Sineád's 'Rememberings' for a Dublin to Charlotte flight last week and found that she had recorded it. Rest in Peace Sineád - I am so glad you gave us this. Sineád you left the world a much more beautiful place than you found it.
Yes. Her music was so powerful and forceful in her angry youth, but her more delicate, sensitive side comes out in these later recordings. I'm in tears!
Kiitos🙏💖Sinead. Muistamme sinut rakkaudella ja lämmöllä. Laulusi elävät ikuisesti ja kerran ne ohjaavat luoksesi ja tapaamma silloin taas. Kiitos enkelinääni🧚♀️. Terv: V-M kuopio/SF
Written By Deloght B. -- Dear Sinead, I love your voice. Such purity. Your voice is Blessed by God Almighty and Kissed by the Archangels and Heavenly Angel's. There is no one on this earth who can sing as you do, just beautiful. Sing true and proud beautiful Celtic woman. Just love you. Love, Delight👃
You are my favourite artist forever in this world ❤ I never get bored with you and your music. I could listen to you for hours and houers every day. May you be in a place now with peace and love like you asked for in this world. I feel you all the way so much ❤
Could feel the pain in voice everytime she sing...I pray that she'll gain..courage and strenght to cope with what ever she's going through in life...bless her heart and soul.. ❤❤❤
In the immortal words of Andy Donnelly of CKUA's The Celtic Show: "This'll bring a tear to your old glass eye." Hauntingly beautiful rendition that I simply cannot get enough of!
RIP Sinead this was my introduction to both her and the song . I really believe her and the legendary Luke Kelly should've did a collab on this one. I love both of their versions of it.
wow wow wow ........ Sinead hunnie, this is A W S O M E, love it so so very much has made my day listening to your beautiful voice, thank you very much sinead :) Hugz , get well soon x
I was won over after hearing her singing Silent Night. The best version that I have heard. I also love the interpretation of this song. The echo adds an interesting effect that somehow adds a more haunting feeling. All adds up to a brilliant performance.
Hello, I am a sound engineer and music theorist (with co-responding uTube channel here). I wanted to give some technical notes on this video. What she did for this take was perform live with her band--except that they all played EXACTLY to the melody and instrumentation of the studio recording itself. Then they removed the audio. So, it looks like she is singing it live, but for the sake of the music video, they over-dubbed the studio release to show-off, and of course SHARE the finished recording. // Could this be her Death Song? It's in E-major. A key and note I've always associated with consciousness, awareness. It's triangular; The Light of Christ. She finally loved herself, and then she died. Sinead O'Connor is Peggy Gordon.
I thank her for taking the traditional Irish song and reimagining it as a love song sung to a woman, by a woman. It's always transformative when a celeb comes out as lgbt, she as having said she's 'bisexual'. Like that concern, she's very brave, especially in light of how disliked she is in the US, to have come out about having the bipoliar illness. (She tore-up a picture of the Pope on Saturday Night live, a TV show here in the US, in the last 80s, and it desptroyed her career in "The States".) I'm surprised she apparently lives here ( in the US). I don't have that ilness, which is as legit an illness as cancer or aids, a chemical-brain-disease, and having nothing to do with how one was raised or poorly copes with life. , but i think anytime someone speaks abut it, and in such a slefless and potentionally career-harming way, they deserve credt for doing so. I hope she's well, and if not, has a caring set f family and friends to help her along. My positive thoughts and prayers go out to her. #SaintPatricksDay #HappySt.PatricksDay #lgbtq #ItGetsBetter #SineadOConnor
Maybe she just didnt interfere with the words?A pathetic practice common nowadays ,for instance when a man sings "I dont know how to love him" from "Jesus Christ Superstar" he changes it to "her"...just sing the bloody song....
Remember this is a Scottish folk song. However, there is a great cross over between Scottish & Irish music. In the Scottish version the glass of brandy is replaced by a cask & the drinking of it results in seldom thinking as opposed to always thinking. Still, this lassie can hold a tune.
Minha Rainha da Irlanda Sinéad O'Connor é a única e melhor voz de todos os tempos. Serei fiel nos legado lindo e incrível que nos deixou. Esteja em paz Sinéad com seu filho. Você foi incrível neste plano. Adeus...🙏🕊👩👦🎶
It's one of those songs that, once you get it into your head, you just can't get it out. Songs of that type, go all the way from sonic torture to sublimely ethereal. Luckily, this one is on the latter end of that spectrum. And Sinéad teases every drop of ether out of it. My only beef is, she took out one verse (looking around, it seems about an even split between performers who do 3 verses and those who do all 4). But at the slow pace she keeps, it would have stretched from 5½ minutes to almost 7. Which would have been fine with me. PS. With the many performances of this song on here, conspicuously absent are the ones by the Clancy Brothers, and by Schooner Fare. Do they prohibit their recordings from going on TH-cam? Pity if they do.
O Peggy Gordon, You are my darling Come sit you down upon my knee And tell to me the very reason Why I am slighted so by thee I am so deep in love that I can't deny it My heart lies smothered in my breast But it's not for you to let the whole world know it A troubled mind can find no rest I leaned myself on a cask of brandy It was my fancy, I do declare For when I'm drinking, I'm always thinking Wishing Peggy Gordon was here I wished I was in a lonesome valley Where womankind cannot be found And the pretty little birds do change their voices And every moment a different sound I wish I was away in Ingo Far away across the briny sea Sailing over deepest waters Where love nor care never trouble me

Mesmerising rendition of Peggy Gordon by Sinead; one of the greatest singers to come out of Ireland. May Sinead's soul Rest In Peace.
Im 57 i grew up listening to her such a haunting beautiful voice so terribly sad 😢❤

Wow, never heard this before. Her voice is so vulnerable and angelic. Just breathtaking and so beautiful .

Shined.
You will always be in our hearts. ❤

One of my most favourite songs by Sinead. Always loved her. So beautiful. God bless your darling you have left us such beauty
A troubled mind can know no rest .... may your beautiful mind now be at rest 💖
Very, very special rendition of this song - mesmerizing. RIP Sinead
Omg this song is just sooo beautiful by Sinead... Absolutely timeless... Tremendous rendition.
Aye!
❤🙏
I loved Sineads voice the moment I heard her sing in 1981, she's not only beautiful but sings with so much emotion, absolutely beautiful song. X
She could turn a nursery rhyme into a Passion. A truly transformative voice, utterly amazing.
1981, and *all I noticed* about her (until she died) was the SNL appearance and her being on Dr. Phil. I'm so dense! My apologies, Sinead.
@@LESBIANANDAUTISTICyour sound girl..no worries..much love from an Irish man living in Cambodia ❤❤❤❤
Try mandinka..she nails that one as well ❤❤
I had never heard her sing this before, it is captivating. We shall all miss her.
Sineads Voice,Smile,Loved Her,Hope she's at piece with her lovely boy ❤😢

Such a wonderful soft rendition. And with the best of musicians. Sharon Shannon is a huge favorite of mine. Hope to all, performers and listeners.
Voice of an angel
This is for me one of the best she have⭐⭐❤🎤

O Peggy Gordon, You are my darling
Come sit you down upon my knee
And tell to me the very reason
Why I am slighted so by thee
I am so deep in love that I can't deny it
My heart lies smothered in my breast
But it's not for you to let the whole world know it
A troubled mind can find no rest
I leaned myself on a cask of brandy
It was my fancy, I do declare
For when I'm drinking, I'm always thinking
Wishing Peggy Gordon was here
I wished I was in a lonesome valley
Where womankind cannot be found
And the pretty little birds do change their voices
And every moment a different sound
I wish I was away in Ingo
Far away across the briny sea
Sailing over deepest waters
Where love nor care never trouble me
You could shame a nightingale
Hermoso!
❤❤❤amen
C'est magnifique
'FOR WHEN I'M DRINKING I'M ALWAYS THINKING" I LUV DRINKING. WISH I COULD BE DRINKING RIGHT NOW. I GOTTA WAKE UP IN 5 HOURS.
She is so ✨.... ❤️
A father's face really matches his daughter, I wonder if she mentioned this.
Nice.
RIP.🥲
❤❤❤❤
Så smukt.
my love
Bello!! :)
Beautyful umas da voice mais linda q DEUS nos deu a glória de escutar 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤❤
