[SorchaL74]

[tdbsnr]

@SorchaL74 Sarahs's a fine musician & singer in her own right, and only 20 (21?) years old.

[tuttithefrutti]

Who is the lady with the guitar next to Kathleen?

[baileymae11]

what is she singing about?

[KaySan666]

@baileymae11 i just googled it. She is singing a gaelic folk song written by Donald Macintyre. The song is about the return of the "Stone of Destiny"which was retrieved from Westminster Abbey on Christmas Day, 1950 by students (source: Wikipedia)

[MrMss4]

What an amazing, pretty voice. The young girl on guitar is also so very pretty.

[MrPenfold84]

@MrMss4 She's cute! 

[JeSuSfReAk6120]

Why are people like Gaga or Rhiana so popular again?

[ninodelbayble]

Like a bernard mathews turkey.Bootiful.

[MattSteidl]

Kathleen's husky voice is so sexy!!!

[SPAREPARTSCENTRE]

Beautiful - greetings from Ireland - I'm speaking English or as bearla for the sake of You tube but Kathleen is definitely the daughter of a chieftain and I would give her my hand if she was available soley based on this - bloody brilliant - what a great tribute to the Gael - we aren't a thing of the past yet!

[sinjin480]

That's Donald Shaw, of Cappercaillie. Looks like Mike Mcgoldrick though, never realized.

[fearghasmor]

Has Mike McGoldrick cloned himself an accordionist..?!

[SorchaL74]

It is on iPlayer on Saturday mornings

[misfitstattoo]

I wished my parents spoke Gaelic, then I would of learned at an early age.

[gondar79]

@misfitstattoo Assuming you are an english native speaker, If I were you I´d wish I could write english properly before even dreaming of uttering a word in any other language. Take this as constructive criticism, because that´s what it is.

[misfitstattoo]

@gondar79 Oh right, we have another pedantic youtube, spelling and grammer officer. I'm not writing a dissertation, nor am I trying to get publish it's youtube for christ sake. It is and you are pathetic, for criticising anyones grammer at all unless, I am criticising yours or someone elses spelling or grammer. Your a twat mate.

[reddragonready]

@misfitstattoo Come on now dude "would of learned"? That just hurts the eyes. ;)

[misfitstattoo]

@reddragonready Does it fuck, you just want to feed your ego by correcting peoples grammer on youtube. Your another sad pathetic fuck, who doesn't have anything better to do.

[reddragonready]

@misfitstattoo Seriously dude...lighten up. It is clear you are capable of better and simply made a , to me, funny mistake that's all. Don't feel bad. I typed audio tune instead of auto tune myself the other day. Own up to your mistake and develop a sense of humor while you are at it. That winking smiley should have indicated to you I was just kidding you. And really, it hardly feeds my ego to recognize a monumental brain fart if I see one.

[misfitstattoo]

@reddragonready I ain't really pissed off with you, it was just that other prick. He was just doing it for his own satisfaction and I kind of unloaded on you. You have to admit though, there's millions of these grammar police people out there in the land of youtube.

[reddragonready]

@misfitstattoo Perhaps you should consider whether anybody would still be able to sing, read, speak and understand Gaelic if it wasn't for people caring for that language much the same way us "grammar police" care about English? Kinda ironic isn't it, in that light, to complain about this under this particular video? Just saying. ;D

[misfitstattoo]

@reddragonready No I don't agree, not on youtube. I have had little education and I have had to be autodidactive, I learnt what grammer I know from reading, which I started late in life. I know where I am with my grammer and I don't have to be told on a forum like this on whether my grammar is incorrect. I like most average people, have to read over what I have written and I don't feel the need to do it on youtube, which is in my oppinion a non formal forum just like

[reddragonready]

@misfitstattoo Wouldn't it be wiser in that case to thank someone for showing you when you made a mistake? Where ever you made it. Isn't that a way to learn? Personally I don't buy into that Youtube excuse. Seems to me just laziness. I'd like to think my English will improve the more I try to write and write correctly. ( It not being my native tongue and having had little official schooling myself). Guess we differ in our approach. :)

[misfitstattoo]

@reddragonready Well to prove my point, would you ever correct one of your friends on facebook? No you wouldn't because they would think that you were being pedantic, and that you were being a bit of an arse. If you said the contrary I would think you and your friends are taking life too seriously. If the person correcting my grammar did it in a polite way then normally I wouldn't have a problem with that, but that guy saying "you should try learning your native

[reddragonready]

@misfitstattoo LOL Actually my friends on facebook rarely need correcting ( some in fact are English teachers. Not that that says all that much these days LOL) but yes, I will correct them if I think it is laziness or ignorance. And yes, that does mean I take the English language seriously. When exactly did taking something serious become a negative? ( That's a rhetorical question. I know that happened at the same time we elevated teenagers to the most important voices in society)

[misfitstattoo]

@reddragonready Well If you read anything by James Joyce I think you would see that English can be taken with a light heart.

[reddragonready]

@misfitstattoo LOL Nope. But I did read a lot of PG Wodehouse. He took English with a light heart. Yet, no faulting his grammar.

[reddragonready]

@misfitstattoo Anyway..have to go now. But thanks for the lovely conversation! :)

[misfitstattoo]

@reddragonready Cheers.

[misfitstattoo]

@reddragonready tounge rather than wanting to learn another language" (had to paraphrase that) that was just rude.

[reddragonready]

@misfitstattoo I can't speak to why gondalf said what he said. I don't know the person.I have no idea if he intended to be rude but the way I took it, I would use "before" instead of "rather" when paraphrasing him.

[reddragonready]

@misfitstattoo What makes you say that? I think I heard you just fine. You feel there is a time and a place for caring about English but not all the time. I feel the time to care is EVERY time you use the language.

[misfitstattoo]

@reddragonready Because the mistake I made was because I didn't read it back and correct it, and I have said to you that I don't feel the need to do so as it is just youtube, but then you continued to correct my grammar. That is why I said you were not listening.

[misfitstattoo]

@reddragonready in everday speech we are lazy with our spoken grammar, when appropiate being informal like speaking with friends or formal when at a jon interview. Someone who corrects peoples grammar on youtube is just doing it for self-satisfaction and for no other reason. If I was pedantic and did the same I would tell you that you should of used a comma after your use of the word "language", which I only do now to prove hounnecessary that is because I can see that you have

[reddragonready]

@misfitstattoo Indeed, I knew that and have to admit, not correcting that before hitting post...my laziness! ;D

[misfitstattoo]

@reddragonready good grammar.

[misfitstattoo]

@reddragonready How unnecessary**

[Lucarius1]

I just love the sound of the Gaelic language and this song sounds just great

[lordchauncey]
