Granted, a man could sing "Sweet Child of Mine" a`capella in Gaelic, totally rock out, and I think we`d agree that`s not Sean N-ós. I simply assumed ButterflyGoddessDru wasn`t referring to all the videos of that on youtube when she left her comment! And a luibin is not "another type of a' capella singing", it`s a particular style of song firmly rooted in the Sean N-ós tradition. Boo-yah
Theres a habit in america to call any kind of unaccompanied Irish singing sean nos. Sean nos to me is singing with a loose rhythm and spontaneous ornamentation. Luibins can be sung loosely and drawn out but the chorus rhythm is strict, and they are definitely in a different category than sean nos ballads.
Beautiful!!!

Tá an t-amhrán seo ar dlúthdhiosca agam agus níor mheall sé mórán dom nó gur chuala leagan Chárthaigh de. Maith thú!

I've been listening to every a' capella Gaelic song I can find, and each performer has the most incredible voice. Ireland should be very proud.

Not true Sean nos is only one form of a' capella Gaelic singing. Luibineach is another type of a' capella singing for example.

This argument just became farcical. Frankly, I`m dissappointed!

His voice is beautiful. I just wish I could speak Gaelic so I'd know what he was saying haha.

For yous'ns what may not know how to get a fada, hold down AltGr key while hitting the vowel key. Take it handy.
