"Fear a' Bhàta" - CAPERCAILLIE

[guine51]

Sublime interprétation. Merci tomtscotland.

[kingsdaughter2011]

It's also on "The Blood is Strong." Thanks for answering. It's nice to know thee's more than one rendition.

[kingsdaughter2011]

What album is this from? I want to find it on Itunes.

[msjay248]

@kingsdaughter2011 , you will find it in the album 'an introduction to Capercaillie' on i-tunes, but not this version of it

[kingsdaughter2011]

I wonder, are the gaelic words roughly the same is the English? Very beautiful. Look for Niamh Parsons singing it in the Irish.

Sem duvida, tem Nordestinos com sangue celta - este olhos claros que vocâ encontra onde você não espera - dos gallegos e dos outros celtas.

Viva o Brasil e Escócia!

[PhalainaBelgium]

Unique performance !! Nearly a capella and so beautiful !! Phalaïna

[thedruid85]

for the most strange it may seem, this song reminds me of my homeland and the sad tunes by luiz gonzaga. but hey, many people in northeastern brazil might have a drop of celtic blood, right?

[Morgana54]

Amei !!

[TheLydiaR]

[camposi]

I love her so much, born in Scotland but brought up from the age of 5 in Australia, Karens voice takes me home, i may not understand my Native Tongue but... My Soul Does.... evidenced by the tears that trickle down my face.

[camposi]

my favourite song from the CD "the blood is strong!" Love you Karen!

[celticgirl08]

I like Connie Dover's version better..... but this one is nice as well

[Andyrfc86]

The song is about a woman who waits on top of a hill for her lovers boat to return. He never arrives and she often asks other sailors about him... to which the reply that she has had it and must be kidding herself if she thinks he is coming back

[pateyongwanada]

[miekhead]

@Steph9737 It was a surprise - Karen was a guest for Dervish as was Moya because they were celebrating their 21st anniversary. I did cry... just a wee bit.

[beuntoyourname]

Saw Capercaillie last night at the Piping Live! concert at the Glasgow Concert Hall. Loved this song and wondered if i would be able to get a recording. Could only guess the spelling of its title. Thank you so much for posting it and for the lyrics. God to understand what the song is about. You wouldn't be able to post them in Gaelic too?

I'm off to look for a recording on iTunes. Thanks again!

[ceobruco]

bellissimo ed emozionante

la sua voce è quella di un angelo

voglio imparare il celtico

[ceobruco]

bellissimo ed emozionante
