I died when Damian started singing this!! I sang this song for a compition and I was so excited to hear him sing it!!!! He has to win The Glee Project!!!!-3
To the negative commenters, find a video of them performing with their orchestra. Here they perform a cappela, it's probably morning. These guys are heavenly normally, or go see them in concert.
@Monicaleigh43 i don't think he was actually suppose to sing in that song since he's a later member and thay probably hadn't really worked his tone into the harmonies at the time. so, he was just like humming and mumbling the words. that's just my theory :P
@imshortandirish He's sung background for them since the beginning. So, I think he would know the words and harmonies. LOL. But, your theory could work out too.
you can tell this is really early in the morning. but they are still A-MAZING!!! congrats to neil for becoming Celtic thunder's #6 vocal member!!! be really balances out the group since damian's voice has deepened. love these boys! (or should i say lads?!!?!?!!)
They sing great for all those people who say they can't sing it is actually the way the company have the mics set up. They are not calibrated right. I am a sound technician and it just sounds like they turned them on and said have fun. Mics are big reason to why some singers sound bad although they can sing great most of the time. Just thought you would like to know that.
Wish people would stop saying Neil (and Ryan) are short... they aren't! Ryan is 5-10 and Neil, judging by this vid and others, is about an inch shorter, if that, so figure 5-9. So not short! I mean, who knew Damo would grow to be 6 feet tall? And having George at 6-2, anyone is gonna look short next to that. But all of these fine lads are above average height, in American terms...
@soccergladiator5 I have, it's called the original song. I'm not saying they can't sing. 90% of the comments about this group is based on their looks. Maybe if they produced an album of their own music,That one guy was singing "everything you do, I do it for you" on TV as if he wrote it!! You keep making this about my Taste, and no matter who I mention, such great song writers like Bob Dylan, Thom Yorke, and Townes Van Zandt who are among my favorites, you'll still criticize my taste.
@platolol You have no right to judge talent, talent comes in many different forms. Not everyone is a songwriter, and yes it is amazing when someone can write amazing songs like Bob Dylan can, but it doesn't take away from the fact that these boys are extremely talented singers. It takes a special quality to perform the way they do, harmonize, perfect tone and pitch despite nerves, etc.
Like you have all said, Neil has been part of the group from the beginning and does a wonderful job of holding down the harmonies... which for many is more difficult than singing the melodies. I really like his rendition of "Wish Upon a Star" on the cd, and I'm glad the back up voice finally gets a chance to stand with the other talented men. Thanks for posting!
@MrsMcGinty91~I know, all the ppl that say they dont like Neil then they r just afraid of chance, hes a really great singer!!!!!!!!!!:) And Damo (Damian) is really smokin hot!!!!!:) lol:D
looks like Neil waz havin some trouble with the microphone stand!!!!:) lol:D JK on the lol:D!!!!! And I LUV these guys!!:) Watched this at midnite the other night too!!!!!!!!!!!:) DAMIAN IS SSSSSSOOOOOOOOOO H-O-T HOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:) LOL!:D
haha he was trying to shorten it. it was too tall for him :D and actually, that's the stand that Damian uses later... lol! maybe they were doing soundcheck earlier and Damian raised it. hahahaha!!! poor Neil is the shortest now! Still tall though. :P I'm short.
@Shannon2993 You're probably right but it makes sense. He wasn't a lead singer when they released this song and the guys are doing the verse they always did. It would be dumb to have Neil suddenly gone during this song when he's now in the group, even though he's not part of this song. You know what I mean?
I have to disagree. I feel that Neil's voice is a perfect blend of the raspiness that Ryan has and the resonance that Keith's brings, and fits in somewhere in the middle. Maybe in this song, it could be a little off, but in any of the others they've sang, it's only enhanced the harmonies.
@Babs2y Nonsense. Neil didn't even have a line in this song because he never did when it was released. Neil has always been their backup singer and has always provided additional harmonies on their songs. To say Neil throws off the harmony makes absolutely no sense when he's been part of CT since its inception. Plus, he has a wonderful voice!
oops Im sry to through u off like that!!!!!!!:) I couldnt read it and understand it because my bros r wrestling and screaming!!!!!!!:) Again Im sry bout that!!:) Plz dont hate mer for that!!!!:)
Ok I am behind with the times here in Ireland as we don't get much info about these guys here, are we now a 6 piece or are we still a 5 piece?? Just a little confused but maybe that's because I have been celebrating St. Paddy's day a wee bit too much today :o
It is now 6 fabulous lads!!! The addition of Neil Byrne (next to Ryan) has rounded out this lovely group. Neil is/was the guitarist and backing vocals on the previous CD's & DVD's! He has a solo song in the new It's Entertainment CD and sings with Ryan & Keith in Hallelujah.
