  • Actually, this is a traditional Celtic tune and doesn't belong exclusively to " Pride of the County Down". The Chieftains use it but you can attach any words you want to it. There's even an Israeli singer who wrote words and adapted this music for his song. Isn't Loreena the greatest singer? I'm a Jew and I can listen for hours to her Christmas albums, and her Celtic music is the Best!

  • That's her power, bringing us toghether! :)

  • I personally love this song and loreena has a wonderful voice.I could listen to her for hours!

  • This song is actually the

    " Pride of the County Down". Its very nice with these lyrics though also.

  • Voice of an Angel no doubt. I dream of hearing Loreena do this in a duet with Van Morrison...

    Maybe...

  • Beautiful, the tune is from "I Heard the Voice of Jesus Say" correct?

  • I listen her and travel and feel

  • She is the best singer of the paganfolkmusic and I love this Midwintersong in this midwinternight 2008 after our midwinterfiredance on the hill in the snow

  • Just one of the powerful songs she brings to new life on the Midwinter's Night CD. Amazing, this woman... Purely amazing.

  • This is the music for the Star of the County Down. Cool!

  • Einfach nur genial

  • I m muslim and this son brought me tears...coz in the end we r all gods creation...Allah, boudha, Jesus...in the end...its god :)

  • Well said and I fully agree with you. I also think it doesn't matter to God how you woreship him, just do it the way you like. Why else would there be so many religions?

    Anyway, the song made me feel sad too, but it's wonderful. I could listen to this song and stare at Loreena like, forever.

  • This song is like a lullaby to escape far far away... And the rest of the album is simply wonderful...

    God bless Loreena! Peace on Earth!

  • Loreena is wonderful, her voice is as pure as crystal, after almost 20 years she still can bring me goosebumps...

    Please more videos !!!

  • simply...I love that woman! the concert of 2006 in Rome was great. I saw nothing, but the 60 euros payd for that were the best payment in my life...

  • she is the best!

  • I bought the new CD and it will from now on, be a Yule staple for me. Be you Pagan,Christian,Islam,Jew, it matters not, this music speaks to your heart and soul and transcends language and belief systems.

  • Very well said!! Hugs

  • The greatest singer ever on earth! The song is beautiful! I love her! She and her voice make me happy...

  • just bought this cd the other day, it's as beautiful as I expected...I await the day Loreenna returns to the USA to tour again...: )

  • awesome, as usual, many thanks for posting it. the disk is ordered allready.

  • Thank you, Quinlan Road, for posting this little holiday treat for us. I LOVE the entire new CD and am listening to it daily; this particular song just happens to be one of my 'favorites'. It's always a pleasure to view video of Loreena; I'm only happy to see that this particular YouTube posting was actually placed here intentionally by Loreena's Quinlan Road staff. I hope that everyone looking at this video will purchase 'A Midwinter Night's Dream'; it's too wonderful to miss!

  • Ms McKennitt is a gift from God. I have herd this song done by many people over the years but never as beautifully as this. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!!

  • I have no words to explain what Loreena and her music mean to me... She takes me in an other world... and this song is WONDERFUL!

    I love you my goddess!! See you on december 7th! :)

  • Loreena sings this modern soon-to-be classic so smoothly and sweetly!  It was wonderful to see her performance video. But, it seemed a bit different, not seeing her at her piano, harp or accordian. Wonderful music!

  • I think the bored looking tech guys ruined the mystic atmosphere. XD

    I love Loreena, She's a marvel.

  • More videos Loreena plz its beautifull

  • Absolutely gorgous! Merry Christmas Loreena! Thank you for so beautifully capturing the truth in Christmas!

  • That's funny, 'cause I usually listen to Loreena 24/7 365 days a year.. especially during the holidays...it is otherworldly. (and heavenly)

  • Loreena, I could listen to you 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year and never grow tired of the wonder that is you.

  • Thank You my Lady of Music, your voice sounds like the one of an Angel.

    Thnk you!!!

  • <333

  • Through her natural harp string Can you hear the earth sing It calls form Ages old From sages bold Stories unfold Far past time or rhyme Her soul chimes and beckons us to hear our inner stories without fear I bow to your beautiful light Loreena's soul shining bright... ...thank you angel
  • This is so beautiful. It mirrors my thoughts exactly.

  • What a beautiful poem, it fits Loreena perfectly, thank you so very much.

  • Beautifully done! Bravo! Thank You.

  • Thank you Loreena for this very beautifull song

  • I love Loreena, y I'm still dreaming see in Chile, in South America.

  • Thank you for this wonderful video...A christmass present straight to my heart...

  • Loreena McKennitt has the voice of an angel. It gives me chills! I hope I get to see her perform live some day.

  • Sin duda la mejor de todas. En España tiene muchísimos seguidores, como yo mismo. Un saludo

  • Loreena, your voice is the most beautiful in the world! one among millions! THANK YOU so much for your dedication to make the most wonderful music of all times.

  • the lady is a genius..her dedication to music is remarkable...her latest cd gives Christmas season the mystical sensation we can easily lose..

    Thank you very much..

  • very beautiful!

  • Lorena jest darem dla ludzi. Jest aniołem, który z tego lepszego, piękniejszego świata przynosi na skrzydłach swoich pieśni ogrom wzruszenia, niezwykłą radość dla serca i duszy. Po wysłuchaniu jej songu jakże inny wydaje się widok z okna, twarze ludzi, lasu i gwiazd. Miłuję Piekno, którym nas darzysz Lorenno.

  • Very. very wonderful. Jakże głęboko w serce zapada. W tej delikatności songu jaka ogromna siła! Boże, jakie to piękne!

  • Gänsehaut!

  • Just wonderful! I'm speechless

  • Che canzone MERAVIGLIOSA....

    Grande Loreena, non smettere MAI di essere la quinta essenza della musica.

  • It's such a joy to see Loreena in the studio! All the new songs included in this holiday release are exquisite.

  • beautifully done as always. the tune reminds me of 'star of the country down'

  • Me too!! I think the tune is actually the same... A sort of mystical-Christmassy-Loreena McKennitt-Star of the County Down! Huzzah!!

  • Beautiful and amazing. I attended the Ancient Muse tours in both NYC and Baltimore.

    This is a familiar melody to me or so it seems. It was the accompaniment to a version of the classic, John Barleycorn. This song touches two parts of myself. The spiritually pagan (pre-christian), and my christian background.

    Just as the Alhambra is a place of spiritual crossroads, this song with its blended theme and melodies have caused me to internalize the sensation of "spiritual companionship." Thank You!

  • she-is-so-humble!

  • Brava, Ms. McKinnett!

  • My fiance and I saw your show in 2007 at Edmonton. you stole his punk heart (you already had mine) What music! breathtaking, poetic, inspiring. I often paint to your music. thank you for doing what you love!

  • Best voice in music. Period. Please, PLEASE come to Austin, Texas.

  • Loreena...That was just beautiful...you're the best...//Dennis//

  • exelente tema , majestuosidad hecha musica una de las voces mas hermosas que he escuchado ojal algun dia viniera a estas tierras lejanas de chile . un saludo desde aca a todos los que disfrutan la musica de Loreena McKennitt ,. un abrazo desde chile villa alemana.

  • Loreena ...such a visionary...

    I saw your show in the Imperial Theatre in Saint John, N.B......

    One of the most truly magical moments of my life...and I have had quite a few...so this is huge... :)

    Truly a Canadian Treasure, I'd say "World"..

    But I am honoured that I come from the same woodland as you.

    Best of Luck with the Album...My Christmas list just got brighter !!

    Love !!!

  • I love this woman. What voice! Simply gorgeous.

  • Loreena... God bless you. You are a living proof of beauty. I only wish you´d come to play in Mexico. Again, God bless you

  • Pendant le Festival d'Été, ce serait malade!!!!

  • As all her Christmas music, gorgeous and reverent. I can't wait to go out and get the album.

  • Excellente idée. Si elle pouvait revenir à Québec,je ne la manquerait pas. Quelle voix. Quelle musique. Chacun de ses disques est unique.

    Continues Loreena à nous donner du bonheur avec ta merveilleuse musique et sa voix si riche. Bravo. Un gars de Québec qui aimerait bien que tu viennes nous voir pendant le festival d'été.

  • Loreena is magic incarnate. Not much more to say than that than, thank you for being.

  • Any idea if Loreena is ever going back in Quebec City? I missed her because of illness.

  • argh ! mais c'est quinlan road ! encore des vidéos ! cette chanson est un bijou dans son écrin!

  • one of her most beautiful song, where's this video available ?

  • The video is not available as a commercial piece. It was taped during the recording session at Real World Studios (Bath UK) for Loreena's latest album A Midwinter Night's Dream.

  • Excellent vid, love her voice. Nice one QR - any more??? This song reminds me very much of The Unquiet Grave by Gryphon (also on youtube).

  • This is one of the mmost beautiful songs of Loreena's! I'm almost in tears! I love her voice! :) I wish we could have more of these videos of the album!

  • I'm a proud pagan witch, and even I must say, because of Loreena's voice, I think this song one of her most beautiful!

  • I really love Loreena, she's my GODDESS.. AMND is amazing, like all of her cds.. See you soon Loreena (7 December)! :)

  • That was lovely! :)

    I love the new album, and TSROM is one of my favourite songs on it.

    Thanks for uploading this, QR -- I'm looking forward to see Loreena's performance at the Christmas concert in Verona on December 24.

    Love,
