Such a beautiful song.

[Cathye3]

My favorite female irish singer, awesome voice !

[JustSebon]

Hey you guys, this is really no spam. I am a musician (singer/songwriter) from Germany and I am searching for attention by promoting myself on youtube. I think that that´s the best way to find some people who maybe like the things that I do.

So … have a look at my account and listen to a few songs written by me (for example „Be alone“ or „Daisy Chain“) Would be great, thank you :-)

[TadRapidly]

We need an upload of "Half Moon Bay" from the album "Stories". Most amazing ballad EVER!

[franielee38]

Beautiful!

[kate285]

Beautiful!! Would love to hear her in concert, thanks for sharing.

[goneatlast]

Maura live is a treat not to be missed. Catch her ASAP.

Happy St. Patrick's Day, everyone!

Peace,

JP

[hiram569]

[davidosmaximos]

[Kamisamadesu1]

Fantastic video of one of my favorite singers. Of course, it doesn't come close to her classic, "Maggie." That video is also here.

[rosesredvioletsblue]

Incredibly beautiful. thank you.

[Singknabe]

@gibsonsulli: Yes, it's a minor!

[gibsonsulli]

dont have guitar at moment but think it might be in the key of Aminor.

[sugarmagnolia03]

Where can we find chords to this song?

[gibsonsulli]

If your ever looking for the chords to a song.Grab a guitar, figure out what key the song is in by running your finger up the low e string untill you find the right sounding note.that note is the key, then from there apply the rule tone tone semitone tone tone tone semitone.Tone = 2 fret ,semi = 1 fret.All the notes that in that are the notes or chords that can be used in that key might have small variance but will be close enough.Then you just figure out what order and which are in song.!!

[bluesetanta]

I saw her last nite doing a charity gig in Dublin,Absolutely Brill

[meandyfizz]

anyone know where i can get chords to this tune.

[kevinjb7]

She had Bronchitis or something when I saw her and she was still incredible.. it almost made it sound even more soulful.

[meandyfizz]

She's phenomenal

[supersoldiermp]

I was just introduced to this marvelous woman. I LOVE her music! I have been searching for something that appeals to my long lost Irish heritage, and this fits the bill! You go, girl! I will be watching!
