Everytime I'm sad I listen to this and it makes me happy again. :)

[pnoidd]

My homeland, I love Ireland. From Australia.

[jeppe2299]

Wow... Simply beautiful. My beloved girlfriend, who means everything to me, said that we need to talk tomorrow... And judging on how she has been acting these last couple of days, I'm almost sure that she will leave me :( That just make's this song so much more touching.

[teodoritza]

This make me cry and wish even more to visit Ireland.Hope that someday I will.

Thank you for this wonderful song:)

[hiseyes]

Tá mé Brasaíle agus tá mo thír álainn, ach aon rud i gcomparáid leis an áilleacht, traidisiúin agus teanga an talamh. barróg mhór a lán-Ghaeilge.

@KingElrond1 Musica extremamente bela,de fato,a Musica,como o Amor,é a linguagem universal das nossas mais profundas emoçoes.Se quiser ouça também em Voices of Xendra,com Anna Paula Sahdi!!!

Vocally speaking ,there's far too much vibration in this voice,

typical for nowadays ánd nowadays taste.One seems to like it,

but I prefer far less vibration,straight from one note to another and not

with all kind of "in between notes"(Caribbean/American influence)

Too much vibration is often not to be avoided when one grows much older,

hence the fact that after reachting 50 yrs of age,the voice gets less attractive,so many classical singers stop.This young singer vibrates too much.

[GloriousTrinity]

@jcriedijk

That's a rather critical response, and displays a lack of knowledge in regards to the varying styles of Irish traditional singing. The 'inbetween notes' that you refer to are an integral part of Irish singing, specifically in the style known as Sean nos where it almost takes over the song. It is quite a skill.

While excessive vibrato in the singing of traditional music is to be avoided, it has its place, and I think is not over done in this case.

Beautiful. When I was in a summer school program at U. Galway in 1971 I asked our professor to take us to N. Ireland. He refused and told us it wasn't safe for us. I regret to this day we never got there. I would love to see it!

[spinglethorpe]

@allancuseo

It is a shame lovely place. Lucky enough to live there. I can look out my window and see Magherally Church!

[kusjeCarola]

I love the songs and videos that you are updating! I tried looking for the songs of Michael Londra to have on my mp3 but I cannot seem to find them anywhere.

Amazing voice this man has. Does anyone here know how i can learn the language of ireland? I'm of irish ancestry and I would really love to learn the ancient language. It's so beautiful to hear. Thanks if you can

[lugh100]

There are loads of ways. You can come to Ireland and learn in the Gaeltacht areas or you can do online courses. Many places also have courses at universities, higher education colleges etc. Google "Irish language courses"

[choir203]

[cherokee1002]

I completely agree with you. I have the Altan version on CD. She does an excellent job with it.
