Your voice! How have I never heard of you until today?! This is one of my favorite songs ever, and yours is the only version for me that I enjoy as much as Sinead O'Connor's. Beautiful.
Hey Lindsay, nice version. I've never been a great fan of Luke's version. Glen Hansard did a version for the Liss Ard festival in the late 90's, it's a bit incredible. I've love you to hear it.
And speaking of June Tabor, you have to listen to 'Life is the red wagon'. It's her magnum opus.
Hope to catch you guys live sometime soon, cheers.
@novamotel23 Thanks for telling me about it, I didn't know he had recorded a version. It is really, really lovely! And I'll have to add 'Life is the red wagon' to my list of albums to get.
If you do ever get the chance to come to one of our shows, make sure to stop by and introduce yourself afterwards!
@ivyleafmusic You are so modest, and this is the trait of a TRUE ARTIST. Wishing you the best of luck. Go for it with good old Celtic confidence and with a Darby O'Gill's pure spirit of adventure in the music world.
Magic is an ever prevalent spiritual force; you see it everywhere;in waterfalls and flowing rivers,amazing rocks formed along Hillsides and stretched moutain ranges, ocean waves washing rock faces, forest trees and fields of corn, BUT ABOVE ALL YOU SEE IT IN CELTIC VOCALS. Just listen to lindsaystraw.
@PichettoFratame Thanks! Not yet, but it will be released soon on my band The Ivy Leaf's CD. When it's available, I'll post the link in the video info section!
You have a really amazing voice i would listen to you sing all day, luke kelly's version has been by favourite for years but you have blown him out of the way, i can't stop listening to your version its the best version i have ever heard and i don't say that lightly i play music myself and i know how hard it is to capture peoples interest but you have done this to a tee well done and best of luck for the future
@stillwaterjames1 Oh my gosh, you know, I've known about June Tabor for a long time but never taken the time to listen to her! I will most certainly remedy that (and am now). I'm flattered that you find a similarity. I can't seem to track down any Jessica Radcliffe Simpson, though - do you have any suggestions on where to find her music?
Hi. Greetings from Japan... I just found your channel today, at first watched "Sweet Sir Galahd" and then I came here to this your work. This is very great job, wonderful vocal and your Collings sounds softly and brilliant. I love your voice and guitar..
This is so brillant :) You have a great voice :D I watched some of your other videos and by the looks of it you're a brilliant musician too :) Hope to see more videos from you soon :D
one off my favorite songs and one off the best versions iv heard lots of singers seem to have problems with the phrasing on this but not you love it x
there's that gorgeous girl again.. you are so talented. You know how to write the tempo. Some think that talent's speed. I still like a 'rocky road to dublin' sometimes though.
what a shame that this got so few views...it's simply brilliant done....I wonder if you pick the guitar just with the plec or at the same time with fingers too?! : )
