Celtic Woman - Jesu Joy of Man's Desiring

[Trillora]

What is it about those harmonies that always makes me cry???

[William2020a]

Just over 100,000 views? What happened? Did it reset to zero when it reached 10,000,000!!!

[TheScorpion667]

Absolutely  ...Breathtaking

[alanparsonsfan]

THIS is Western Civilization. Right here. Thank you for the reminder.....

"Whatever is true, whatever is lovely, whatever is of good report, think on these things..."

[bandgeek1575]

This inspired me to learn this song. Thank you (:

[Toothlesslover]

This has to be the kind of songs the sirens sang... <3 Imma be a sailor just to hear them!

[zbalani]

i think maired is the most prettiest and cutest member of the celtic woman

[edmcadam]

*Tears of happiness*

[XemilyannelovesyouX]

Anyone who dislikes something like this REALLY has to have themselves checked out.

[TheAscendingOne]

@XemilyannelovesyouX yeah ik

[SOCOMGAFE]

I LIKE FOR A WEDDING CLOSE! :D

[SOCOMGAFE]

i like for a weeding close ;)

[NothinHere4Ya]

This was one of Meav's best in my opinion.

[rparry13]

@Marty9991

when i first started playing the violin, i was taught to hold my bow differently to how i hold it now after playing for 15 years.... it is a matter of how 'YOU' need to hold you bow so it is cumfy and to get the best sound!!! i allow my students to make up their own minds on how they would like to hold their bow (within reason, haha!!)

[IntoTheMystical]

@rparry13 The classical violinist Anne-Sophie Mutter holds her bow above the frog - and plays quite well!

As you say, it's all about the sound.

[ATBINTC]

...sigh :)...

[AlmenAE]

3 people are jealous

[riquet1949]

Very, very beautiful and moving, a joy to hear such beautiful voice thanks for sharing Regards from France



[wordgal14]

0:50 Oh, so Meav DOES breathe in between her awesome singing. Funny, they left me breathless with awesomeness, and she's actually part of it. Strong lungs. :-)

[lonnierogers]

I dont know who i am more in Love with the Singer or the Fiddle player.

[TripBoomLikeThat]

@lonnierogers You take the singers, I'll take the fiddler.

[Martyr9991]

@2getHerLuv well yes that's the point of vibrato. but still i can add more vibrato on a faster song.

[Sumosabie]

@Martyr9991 if you can do soooo much better and hold the bow the RIGHT way, make a video and post it because i would love to see it done.

[Martyr9991]

@2getHerLuv yeah... she's good but she could fit more vibrato in plus she holds the bow wrong.

[theIrishluckcharm]

Angelic, angelic, angelic.

[jdjdangel]

una obra de arte!!!

[TheBeautylover10]

an appreciated lulliby song....

[Lillipchen]

Wundervoll. Himmel auf Erden. Heiliger, engelsgleicher Gesang. Ich bin zu tiefst berührt und hoffe, diese imposante, harmonische Zusammenstellung von Stimmen und Instrumenten bleibt noch lange in dieser Qualität erhalten

[maryspinker]

if god had something to say - he'd do it this way. 

[daniel0Naruto]

I feel sorry for those 3 people that are deaf :)

[dhom100]

Meave and Orla were perfect as always. and smoothness of Chloe's voice is like supernatural. Mairead was perfect too.

[watchNHK]

I'd say it is good music to fall asleep to, but i hang on every note.

Fuck.

[jbai1]

Very nice video like it very much sooooooo beautiful...!!!

[SuperLillyjo]

only one word can describe this...heaven.

[SuperLillyjo]

Surely the most beautiful sound ever produced by human voices.Absolutely heart-rending.Sorry but Asian 'music' just doesn't compare to the purity and emotion that Celtic Woman can evoke with their stunning heavenly ,angelic voices .

[HonRosie6]

Hey!! I know this song!!! lol :D

But I could NEVER hope to sing it as well as Chloe, Orla and Meav.

[imeldahyde]

Purely Celtic Angelic.

[chrysshart]

I've sung this in choirs before but because I'm an alto, i never really paid attention to the melody! Beautifully done.

[goodguystallion39]

Wow! Meav is wonderful. Chloe is exquisite. These ladies really make this agnostic feel a feeling within me that I have not know before. Thank You!!!

[goodguystallion39]

Wow! Meav is wonderful. Chloe is exquisite. What a beautiful composition by such talented ladies. This song and the singers makes this agnostic stop and wonder , from the feeling's within me. What a heartening song...............

[janeyegerton]

Méav should be conferred the status of goddess!

♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥­♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

[satinbarbi]

I can't think of one negative thing to say about Celtic Women. Pure beauty and Joy.

[ghilas233]

bravesimo

[vegasshowgirlshoes]

The notes starting at 3:42 blow the roof off the place

Perfection on earth? Pretty damn close

[crisandio]

the best version of Jesu Joy of Man's Desiring by far

[vegasshowgirlshoes]

Very few pieces get the "rip your friggen soul out" award

This one rates in the top 5

I don't give this award lightly and there are very few that can achieve it.

A pure modern work of art in this form

[Jennalovesrainbows]

I love Meav, I wish she was still in the group

[biggreenblob]

i am literally crying right now this is so good.

[Jennalovesrainbows]

Its so amazing, I am in tears too!

Holy smokes that meav hit a high note! I wish when I sung up there that it would sound pure and clear like that!

[LuthienofOssiriand]

Jesu joy of man's desiring,Holy wisdom, love most bright.

[astout5]

Lol, awesomesaucifulness.

I love your word... I think I'm going to steal it! XD

[UndercoverCracker]

I like it best when Orla sings alone!

[christine193]

in what part of song does she sing alone?

[UndercoverCracker]

All of her other songs......but she doesnt sing alone much in this song.

[UndercoverCracker]

I like when Orla sings by herself!

[daser4u09]

Ich bin überwältig. So was von schön -Himmlisch. Danke für den Lieblichen Song. Herzliche Grüsse aus der Schweiz!

[caliapi]

you kno, before, i never would have wanted to see this video because i thought "Jesu Joy of Man's Desiring" wouldn't be all that great of a song. now that i've watched it several times, i think it's pretty cool. score one for curiousity, i guess.

[deadpalette]

i wish Meav would come back to Celtic women :( she is great solo but i listened to her and can feel something missing.

[snowdancr14]

they actually both hit the same note

[snowdancr14]

okaaay, whoever doesn't believe me, find the notes on the piano, they're the same

[mdelair420]

yes you correct im a huge bach fan hes my favorite composer

[bigsis314]

@snowdancr14 thats true thats ezactly how i figured out cannon in D major

[wwwTwistianityCom]

Yes, This is a very uplifting song. Probably one of my favorites too. CelticLadies channel does a great job in the area of good quality videos, by having the picture and sound match better than some of the other channels. I appreciate that.

[schoenesmaedchen]

i like to listen to this song when i'm feeling angry or sad. it makes me feel better.

[kunya16]

Thank you! I've already got A New Journey, but I'm getting the others soon!

[bubblegum303]

Absolutely amazing!!!! That super high note by Chloe at the end is my fav. sound ever, so I practiced it and practiced it, and now I can hit it( Not with the same purity as Chloe though!)

[IAmACelticWoman]

Oh I love that one. I had to sing it for Choir! :)

[BETTINGonALICE01]

me too. it was fun. i had meav's part.

[kunya16]

Where can I get their CD and what is it called? I really want to hear more from them!

[MiSpoonIs2Big]

You can get it online, and maybe in some stores. I'd say your best bet is to go to Amazon, although, this is from their dvd, and is not on their cd. Their first cd is called Celtic Woman, their second cd is A New Journey, and they have a christmas cd which is A Christmas Celebration.

[kunya16]

Wow, great song greater voices. What more can I say?

[veprik6]

this song is on their cd bonus track, no?

[schoenesmaedchen]

No. Not unless they re-released it recently. The bonus tracks are "Si do mhaimeo i (wealthy widow)" and "The Ashoken Farewell/The Contradiction" which are both live tracks. Although you may want to check if it's on the "Celtic Woman: A New Journey" album; it's not on the "Celtic Woman" (the blue one) album.

[bubblegum303]

It is on Chloe Agnews solo CD though

[siggi5153]

This is a song by Johann Sebastian Bach - maybe one of the greatest composers of mankind.

[solardevaldeosera]

Agree... But Bach IS the greatest :)

[cctc11891]

Wished with all my heart this was on their CD - its my favorite ever!

[Palmie01]

you can actually download it if you have itunes. Itunes offers a bonus cd of celtic woman with this song, i drempt i dwelt in marble halls, My lagan love, and soomewhere.

[dambreaker]

talk about getting the shivers up and down your spine!!!! wow!!!!!!!

[chococatluver]

this song is gorgeous! And this is coming from an emo kid. This song is so beautiful. They should have put it on their CD.

[MiSpoonIs2Big]

Absolutely gorgeous. I just wonder why they didn't put this on their cd.

[tmhmah4]

It is on their first DVD but not on their CD !

[MiSpoonIs2Big]

I know. I saw the DVD and looked for it here. I have two of the three CD's, and wished they had this song on the CD.

[PNCNM]

wow

[mariavn89]

I agree: BEAUTIFUL!

[Titanica167]

BEAUTIFUL!
