This is Iarla Ó Lionáird from Cúil Aodha in Co.Cork. This is a famous old song in Irish, Seán Ó Duibhir a' Ghleanna is the usual name. Iarla is a great singer. His greatest recording is Aisling Gheal before his voice broke. Look it up on YouTube. It should be on it.
Ceol na nAingeal atá anso againn. D'éistfinn go brách na breithe leis.
As a testament to the moving power of music, I -- a nonreligious person -- feel like falling to my knees in thanks to whatever god(s) may be out there for giving us a voice like his, to help us forget the travails of the world for a while.
At once comforting and hair raising! So very magical.
