@fluteplaya22593 It's an Irish folk song about a young person looking forward to their wedding day. I believe I've heard this song called "Our Wedding Day".
@TripBoomLikeThat Doesn't the bride or groom in this case die? I went online and here's lyrics that werent used. "The people were saying no two were e´er wed,
But one has a sorrow that never was said,
And I smiled as she passed with her goods and her gear,
@fluteplaya22593 Yes, I just looked the song up in Wikipedia, and they said many verses are often omitted. They showed lyrics for one version that made it clear that one of the characters was dead. Folk songs usually have many variations.
@fluteplaya22593 That's a good question - changing the lyrics certainly alters the powerful and poignant song's meaning. Celtic Woman's arranger, David Downes, always likes to keep their songs uplifting and positive, and I guess a live lover is more positive than a dead one! But I have no idea why so many singers change the lyrics.
The clarity and purity of their voices is just one part of the magic of this incredible music. No ridiculous dancers, costumes, effects or overpowering (and forced) vibrato.
@Gizmologist09 I agree, especially about forced vibrato. I prefer a purer tone in music, and hold myself to the same standard. Although I don't mind (too much) if the style requires it.
I love the song and the ensemble, but I prefer Loreena McKennitt's version.
Actually, now that I think about it, Loreena's version is more mystifying, this version is mystical. They are very different interpretations, but I like Loreena McKennitt's version more.
i love this song, i especially love the beginning. overall, a beautiful song. i think their music is simply breathtaking. i love celtic music, but Celtic Woman are my favorite singing group. my second favorites are Celtic Ladies. i love their Christmas cd. well, just wanted to say i love this song and this music. i'll always be your fan Celtic Woman, keep up the amazing work!
I prefer the Hayley Westenra version. It's slower and a lot more emotional. And Hayley Westenra doesn't usually express much emotion in her music. I'm not saying she's not awesome though. 'Cause she totally is.
@UndercoverCracker I guess it's personal isn't it? Both do an excellent version of the song. I prefer Méav's soaring vocals with this song, but I prefer Órla's voice on a song as Down By The Sally Gardens.
Why does the BEST talent come from over the pond? Here in America they have "things" like Lady Gaga screeching out songs. I need to go back to the UK where my family has deep roots.
@cafe20011 At the same time, it makes you wonder what this group would be like if Meav herself wasn't in it, let alone this song too, because even though I still like Celtic Woman, it's not the same without Meav and Orla.
i agree. can't think that 12 idiots dislike this haunting song and haunting voice. how on the earth could you find such a more beautiful voice than meav's?
She is marvelous. Never has a female affected me like these ladies do. Meav makes my soul ache, my heart pound, my head spin, and my stomach flutter. I was in such awe of this young woman that I didn't really know what the rest of me felt like. But I know an angel when I hear one! Bravo to you! What natural beauty! I'm at a loss for words...
I had my mp3 on shuffle and this song came on. The next song was by Taylor Swift. That song sounded so bad it hurt my ears. Normally I like Taylor Swift, but she sounded so bad after the beauty of Meav's voice in this song.
I can't decide which solo of Méav I like the most.. it's just amazing how she is able to handle soft ballads like this and the more 'cheeky' songs as Dulàman or Si Dho Mhameo I.
@HonRosie6 Well i know that you're nice:-)..i knew that already.....:-)...but what else beside that? i mean what can you say about yourself,if you're willing to sare more of you with me at all? :-)
@browneyedgirls102 sorry to bother u but ive only just discovered these beautiful women wi voices of angels wr cud i find out mr abt them i guess meav and orla have left so r they still goin is lisa still with them she is so beautiful and wot a gorgeous voice any info wud b greatfull thnx
What a wonderful voice that méav's... As everyone says, it's angelic... I wish I saw her in celtic woman's concert... argh...
But does someone know what exactly the choir is singing behind??? I really need it so if someone could answer, i would really be grateful for him (her)....
If anybody want the lyrics, here they are: My young love said to me My mother won't mind And my father won't slight you For your lack of kind. And she stepped away from me And this she did say "Oh, it will not be long love 'Til our wedding day". She stepped away from me And she moved through the fair And fondly I watched her Move here and move there.
And she made her way onward With one star awake As the swan in the evening Moves over the lake. Last night she came to me She came softly in So softly she came Her feet made no din. And she laid her hand on me And this she did say "It will not be long love 'Til our wedding day".
This is absolutely gorgeous music. I just happened to bump into this singing group thanks the a music video of HTTYD. This really gives me inspiration for a story I am writing. Someone should use this as movie music.
I sang this song in Germany on St Patricks night 1998 ...sang like a banshee!!!! wish i could sing like these ladies :) but lord above i love this song!!!!!
If you are their fans why would you say they aren't much without Meav and Orla?? They are all beautiful singers with or without these 2 ladies that left!!!
One of the most beautiful voices I have ever heard. I commend the singer and the composer who re arranged this classic. I love this song and this group. They have a huge spot in my heart. They are one of the reasons I love music as much as I do.
@RogueWolf711 I know... To be perfectly honest, I was a little disappointed when I first heard them sing with the new line-up... I mean, they're still good, like you said, but it's just not the same...
@lunescent2007 I agree. It's so weird how certain songs fir different voices better. For example, I think that Méav sings this better, but I prefer Órla's version of Down By The Sally Gardens.
I don't understand these people here, Méav's soaring, deep and clean vocals are perfect for this song. I would love it if people would stop with attacking her, she is a great vocalist who deserves the same love as the other women get. Lisa, Chloë, or Órla wouldn't have done it better. I know Órla has a version, but she sings it far too slow.
If that's true, then they've choosen the wrong voice for the song. These women are good singers, but some voices are not made for some songs. I, personally, think it's ok.
stalker8241 it was written for male singer. His true love died of TB before their wedding but he still sees her spirit. Barbara Dickson gives this beautiful song its true emotion. Lyrics on Wikipedia.
I miss Meav so bad, but I'm glad that she accepted the invitation to record a song in "Tinker Bell and The Lost Treasure" with Lisa and Mairead. Meav will always be my favourite soprano singer. I think it's time to support her solo career even though my heart is broken by her departure from Celtic Woman ...
I understand how you feel... Méav is a great artist and will always be my favorite Celtic Woman. It was horrible to hear of her depature. But she is doing it very well solo and she deserves that.
Many people are always drawn to Lisa, but I'm drawn to Méav. Méav has something unspoken in her appearance...
Well, I'm also drawn to Lisa because os her warm feeling in every song she does. Lisa and Meav are my favourite singers while Mairead is my absolute favourite fiddler. Gladly Lisa still stays with Celtic Woman. Therefore, I support Meav's solo career and Celtic Woman's success respectively. ^_^
@monkeyboyiv, take into consideration the setting of this song. How many cows you may have may define your social status/wealth. However, there have been many variations of this. Some sing "My brothers won't mind", some sing "your lack of kind" and some sing "your lack of kine." So really, it doesn't quite matter ;) No one is really wrong.
@LuthienofOssiriand I'm a fan of them, and I think they're fine the way they are. It doesn't matter if Meav's there or not, I like them anyway. And always will.
Wonderful song that's marvellously sung, but somehow too positive regarding the actual tragic turn of the story not included here... Well, Celtic Woman is an ensemble addressing a mainly American audience after all. I'm also sad that Méav has left the group... T-T
Where can i find the words the backing vocalists chant? They're great!

My young love said to me, "my mother won't mind, and my father won't slight you for your lack of kine".

I don't think it's "kine", but rather "kind".
Maybe he doesn't have enough cows, but I don't think that's the point of the song.

Well I searched the lyric a few days ago and it said "kine", though someone could have been misinformed..

@monkeyboyiv, take into consideration the setting of this song. How many cows you may have may define your social status/wealth. However, there have been many variations of this. Some sing "My brothers won't mind", some sing "your lack of kind" and some sing "your lack of kine." So really, it doesn't quite matter ;) No one is really wrong.

I stand corrected. It is probably "kine" in the original intent.

She has a beautiful voice. If you enjoy, check Cara Dillon from Derry singing the same song.

she is soo beautiful, and she always looks like she's having so much fun singing. i can't think of anyone else that was born to sing more than Meav.
simply amazing.

Dearest Meav,
We all miss you so much! Can you please come back to Celtic Woman? They're not much without you and Orla.
With love,
All your fans.

@LuthienofOssiriand I'm a fan of them, and I think they're fine the way they are. It doesn't matter if Meav's there or not, I like them anyway. And always will.
Great song though!

Is Meav the first soloist here? I loved her. Why did she leave Celtic Women?

She left on maternity leave and decided to stay with her new family for the time being. You're right, she is awesome.

Who is she married to? Does anybody know?
LuthienofOssiriand 2 years ago
I have no information on her spouse, but she left the group to have her first daughter, Anna, and she recently had her second daughter Catherine.
Hope this helps.

I know about her children, I was just surprised that her website didn't say, in fact it didn't even say when her birthday is.

I still think this version (Meav's) is the best.

Wonderful song that's marvellously sung, but somehow too positive regarding the actual tragic turn of the story not included here... Well, Celtic Woman is an ensemble addressing a mainly American audience after all. I'm also sad that Méav has left the group... T-T

the opening music (not sure what the instrument was) sent chills down my back that didn't go away until the ned of the song.
