[mirror452]

[theerasmussoldier]

@FatalError31 beautifull isn't it! I love traditional cultures. not the stuppid western modern culture we have today.

[subhammetalfreak]

Pls dnt tel me dat eluveitie copied this song........

[Loarwenn24]

@subhammetalfreak Yes...

[PhilFilth]

@subhammetalfreak What's wrong with that? It's a traditional celtic song,

[Pedgerow]

This guy reminds me of the priests from Age of Empires.

[TheHeartbreaker2009]

"When I clos my eyes...INIS MONA!"

I first knew this song as his cover version from eluveitie.

[sylfka666]

@TheHeartbreaker2009 So did I ;)

[AmoKomA9mm]

Inis Mona ...

[majen100]

oh yeah wel sorry dude ur rigth next time more reserch and ehm jeh point wo was ectualy the pointi was trying to make it dus not care im just bad at saying it so thx

[enfertesherz]

and to everyone bickering....1.it doesn't matter who created the song and 2.you do not have to be of celtic descent to enjoy it or to play it.....

Donc calmez-vous le ponpon, écoutez et appréciez.....

[enfertesherz]

majen100: "the song is hundreds of years old " hahahahaha. You may want to do a bit more research buddy. Despite originating from folk tradition this song is not all that old at all. There is no evidence to it being any older than the 1960's. Don't get me wrong, it's one of my favourites, but the fact remains that it's not an acient celtic chant/song/balade......most celtic tunes are relatively "recent" seeing as the celts did not keep written records, or not many until christianity arrived...

[majen100]

wrong moment of saying this but love this song dude yeah

[majen100]

day of birth but even thoh his instumental was self made and by that is a buitiful arthistand i love his musik but even so this song belongs to no one so pleasdo not be mad at enyone wath so ever we are all humans respect that (perhaps this coment is a bit late and the discusion is alredy ended if so im sorry

[majen100]

ore franks ore enyoneeven more so theh had barely eny musik ore culture at al

but in my eyes there is no the best the wels have better aim the scots better constitution the irish dance better the franks make better drinks everyone has somting no one is perfect so pleas just stop this im 14 years old and evin i know everyone is ecual and everyone is difrent and evin i respect that so pleas if theres enyone that shoul be a *less* human is alan for claiming a song witch is older as his grandfathers

[DarkVisor]

@majen100 Please dude can you learn to spell? It's actually hurting my eyes..

[majen100]

hej guys bouth the discussion whos the best celt and who this song belongs to

both awnsers with no one the song is hundreds of years old and alan isnt a real celt you can notice he sued som1 for stealing *his* song while not he not enyone alive wrote it the best celt was the first one becous thats the original so if theres a *best* celt it wil be the rus (not russian rus) who came from the (jes this part is russian) plains thoh their culture and way of live is not half as *advanced as the brits

[Firedrakul2]

[29Loubi]

@Firedrakul2 Yes it is :o)

[theunsanereaper]

Listen to Eluveities Inis Mona, a perfect cover for this song!

[itaspera]

takes me back to places I didn't even know I knew -- thank you Alan Stivell

[SuperCommentwhore]

500'th

[Alavi2142]

@SuperCommentwhore your mom is 500'st

[fyr333]

@jzschaedlich Tri Martolod, or this melody at least, is actually an old English song, so both Alan an Eluveitie are using it, and there's nothing wrong with it :)

[fiedelmina]

@fyr333

English??? I really wonder, the melody is SO typical for Breton music. Might it be the other way round: Brittanic melody, became an English folk song? After all, both countries were one cultural space for a long time in the middle ages (as you can tell by the names: Brittany-Britain .-))

[Raizing90]

@fiedelmina

Even though the Celts were spread out through all of Western continental Europe, the language that Bretons speak is an Insular Celtic language, suggesting that they actually lived in Britain before they migrated to Brittany. I wouldn't say it's an English song though. I'm guessing that it's Celtic in origin.

[izza843]

@fyr333 an old English melody? I have serious doubts about this.

[Uuuurk]

@fyr333 you know the name of the english melody he plays?

[Bilbon1967]

Going to Britanny in August.

[mantra3000]

Brittany may be a nice area, but boy do Brittons drive like assholes.

[SSTemplar]

France kill English, hardly all of Brittany :P

Inis Mona is about the isle of anglesea, just north of mainland wales

preeeeety sure french invasion never made it that far ;)

[bournivergne]

@SSTemplar Brittany isn't Great Britain. Brittany is a former independant country and became french at the end of Middle Age. This is a traditonal song from Brittany, Inis Mona isn't the orignal song.

[64roo]

@bournivergne

Celts to a man....and seriously offended when called french

[felixlpilon]

@bournivergne Perhaps, but Inis Mona does kick ass.

[3tangle3]

@bournivergne brittany in latin means little britain ;)

[Jyrgenstrator]

I tought that Inis Mona is epic, but this!!!! This is what I call epic! I almost cried when I first time heard this song.. There is metal and rap versions, but where is techno/dance/trance versio? It could sound amazing.. :) Hail from Finland!

[draco199999]

Tri Martolod -> Inis Mona

[yanndu22650]

vivre la bretagne (breizh eno bevañ)

[Tokiogrl09]

manau really did take their chorus from this--it sounds REAALY REALLY similar, just altered barely.

[tynnian]

Alan Stivell le druide des temps modernes^^

[Rom29BZH]

[tellemstevedave37]

I love Celtic music :) i have Irish and Breton ancestry, i love both the music & art of both cultures! I first heard of Alain when he collaborated with Shane MacGowan, been a big fan ever since!

[pastaga56]

VIVE LA BRETAGNE !!!!

[tellemstevedave37]

@pastaga56 OUI :)

[MrPlayTheGuitar]

Merci tout le monde je suis Breton je l'avais apprise quand j'étais gosse !

(I'm from Breizh, I learned this song when I was a little boy !)

[trollhorn1977]

Please listen to the Band ELUVEITIE with their song "INISH MONA"...

[jerome96114]

@trollhorn1977 :

It is actually "INIS MONA" and NOT "INISH MONA" ... And well ... they actually obviously stole that melody ...

[alypse89]

@jerome96114

No they obviously DIDN´T steal the melody cause the melody is no private property ;D

The "Tri Martolod" is an old melody with french origin and it was also used by Manau in their song "La Tribu de Dana" as well as in Inis Mona by Eluveitie, as already mentioned by you before. So please don´t accuse people of stealing. ;D

[TheSantbrieg]

@alypse89 It is an old traditional Breton tune....french origin lol

[alypse89]

@TheSantbrieg

uh yea oO i dun get the sense of you posting the essence of my post again but... yes indeed :p

(just in case you are trying to use the high art of irony and render my statement wrong, why don´t you enlighten us then with your wisdom? ;D)

[TheSantbrieg]

@alypse89 "the high art of irony"...hahahaha you're so fine, ok now give your source of "your french origin"....if you can of course :)

[alypse89]

@TheSantbrieg

well maybe you know, that the brittany is a part of france, and as long this tune originates from the brittany it originates from france and so it got french origin.

btw i´m talking about geographical origin, not the cultural or linguistical. i´m well informed that this tune's lyrics are written in breton (brezhoneg) and not in french if you´re up to this.

and as i told u before... if you know better enlighten us please =X

[TheSantbrieg]

@alypse89 very easy view but poor explanation. Globalisation, looks for you, perhaps a good thing, but please wait a minute :) ! why you want put doubt on the mind of people here ? it's clearly Breton tunes, not French, Breton it's a culture apart, even in France they make the difference between French folklore and Breton folklore, I doubt you'll make friends Bretons but only black eyes if you come in Brittany with comment like this... read some books, you'll look less cunt the next time .

[alypse89]

@TheSantbrieg

Well, if you told us your opinion instead of starting a war becuz of you making distinction without difference, there hadn´t been any problems at all ;) And btw, i haven´t been up to saying this tune is FRENCH, but it has it´s origins in France, let me give u an example. If someone is from the Champagne... he´s still french and i don´t think brittony became seperated from france or such things. And if you´re so retarded in your beloved Brittony to beat up people just bcuz they

[alypse89]

don´t say things the same way you think, then i don´t think i need friends from there :p

Maybe you should stop giving other people on youtube such a view on your land and YOU would look less cunt next time.

And else... don´t tell me 'bout history and cultures, because most french still don´t make a difference between "Germany" and "Nazi" because of narrow-mindedness like yours. Next time just give us your statement and rather INFORM people than fucking with em because u know slightly better ;D

[alypse89]

but to come to an end i say... YOU WON this discussion. And like someone else already said:

"Arguing on Youtube is like the Paralympics - Even if you win you´re still retarded" so far

[TheSantbrieg]

@alypse89 wtf are you talking ? germany nazi ? lol,I like the mix of this retard, fucking idiot !

you wanted to be enlighten, and because i'am kindly, i trying to explain the diff between French culture and Breton culture but i think i would have more chance with a monkey.. Brittany is a nation oldest than France....so perhaps in a rare moment of lucidity you can make a conclusion by yourself, but i doubt :) so now can you stop to pollute this nice vid with your weak propaganda, thks.

[TheSantbrieg]

@alypse89 Go in peace God is merciful to the weak of mind.

[Alderamin38]

Ну прям параллели с нашей "Мельницей".))

[Virenth]

@Alderamin38 Песня старинная, что ни на есть фольклорная =) Алан хорошо исполняет, хотела сь бы чтобы Хелависа в оригинале исполнила.

[Alderamin38]

@Virenth , было бы не плохо. Как раз в духе Клана Лир, а вообще.....у Мельницы немного песен народных, скорее много меньше, чем авторских...ведь они исполняют авторскую музыку

[Alderamin38]

это ежу понятно. хотя мне больше нравится исполнение этой песни Yann Ar Lue), не знаю какие записи есть в интернет, но я ориентируюсь на ту, которая звучала на диске Кельтская Британия(там тупо песни и красивое видео)

[dorotekem]

I love his music!

[Bobskye]

da sonaozañ a disteñget, bevet Breizh !

[whaip]

vive la bretagne!!!!!

greetings from germany!

[nertos466]

@whaip Vive la France! French celtic music is not limited to britanny! France is celtic! Do not let the elitist media make you forget your roots!

[whaip]

best song on earth.

eluveitie is pure shame...

[Zowi121]

The best voice I heard ever!

[muellerbub]

[hardcoreoma]

I close my eyes, Inis Mona

[Death91Rider]

@hardcoreoma EPIC! I get goosebumps everytime I listen to it :)

[Death91Rider]

@hardcoreoma Eluveitie <3 ... but this, too, is awesome!

[SlipknotTemptation]

@hardcoreoma Eluveitie - Inis Mona <3

Ftw ;D

[Illior]

@hardcoreoma And reminisce of those palmy days

[damienomen]

@hardcoreoma

damn it really is identical isnt it...

[Shpirytus]

@hardcoreoma Tri Martolod was first!!!

[mrkdui]

@Shpirytus Isn't it quite obvious? :)

[hardcoreoma]

@Shpirytus yeah really ? shit i didn't knew that !! Thanks for sharing these spactular news with me !! i was sure the bretons have covered this song from eluveitie

[Vaskis4life]

@hardcoreoma I fucking love you

[mipepitomi]

alors on est pas fort en bretagne !!! :) souvenirs de l'ambiance de oufs aux vieilles charrues une pensée a tous les expatriés GWEN HA DU POWER

[momoetnene]

Rien ne eut mieux me faire penser au Festival Interceltique de Lorient... Magnifique ! ..

[elcocomaruja]

Precioso

[EmilieHerzi]

beautifull!

[ianisamonkey1]

lol two other songs that sound exactly the same are (Manau - La tribu de Dana) and (Eluveitie - Inis Mona)

[HigherEnlightment]

Wonderful song, love it. Only drumming is subpar for some reason... Was their main drummer ill during that concert and someone was covering for him?

[HomoCallidus]

Tri martolod yaouank... la la la...

Tri martolod yaouank i vonet da veajiñ

[don666diego]

C'est de quel année? Il me semble très jeune. Des annéees 80?

[MaxSluiman]

What's with his voice? He's not just a bard, he's a druid. Try to explain the magic in his voice otherwise.

[thedeadscientist]

@arbitertl

You can learn it, in my opinion it is a beatiful language. I want to learn it myself. There there is nothing better than singing songs in the original language together with the people who speak it, and there is surely no better way to show one's respect.

[birchward]

a great artist and a fatastic show a must for anybody who loves bretange ( brittany ) , music and trully magic country .

[etilcareh]

B.R.A.V.O.

[johthais971]

Benh oui c est l original MANAU se n est que commercial...

[Davidoff73]

Long live Stivell, long live Breizh!

[chrisjames60]

genius. wonderful. magnifique

[MisterLollypop]

eluveitie is way better!

[saleve74]

@MisterLollypop

Eluveitie is TOTALY different !!

But I also love Eluveitie :)

[Anndgrim]

@MisterLollypop

No way!

And the guy that say that is a metal fan. This version is different from all the things we can usually ear and it's really more radical. ELUVEITIE just did a cover making it soud like a generic folk metal song.

This is the original song and he is the original author but ELUVEITIE.

ELUVEITIE never asked any autorisation, and more they never credited Alan Stivell. That's just unbearable.

Excuse me for my bad English.

[MisterLollypop]

@Anndgrim dude it's just an opinion...

[Anndgrim]

@MisterLollypop

OK.

Sorry ^^

I thought it was just like all those metal fan who permanently say shit about any music that is not metal

[SONOFKHAlNE]

@Anndgrim He's not the author, it's a traditional folk song. And Eluveitie didn't really reuse his arrangement of the tune, only the main melodic/sing line, which he didn't write. I like both versions, you can't really compare them, since one is folk music, the other is metal, and both are great in their genre.

[Joachimlefranc]

Quelle classe, quelle voix ! C'est toute la Bretagne qui renaît avec ce chant venu du fond des temps.

[wauter268]

Real good song! Like puntenpol said: Divine! 

[jonnavdpas]

My mother´s got a faster remix of this song and everytime we´re in the car she plays it and starts singing along. And come on people... we all know how mothers sing. xD

[IMC026]

iontach!

[ratvivby]

Ahhh.... I just love it also. It reminds me of the 70's but dates back to what the 1670's? great celtic harp!

[arbitertl]

Awesome song. Too bad I don't know this language to understand the words ;[

[dj4yb1]

Que fait Raël dans cette vidéo ?

[CastletoKarma]

Great stuff this! I had the vinyl LP of Stivell at the Paris Olympia from about 1974 or '75. Magic to hear this again after so long, really great stuff for a gifted artiste. Super, it never dated at all (in my mind).

[fargeant]

toute la nation celte se reconnait là

[elsaphir]

he has amazing voice... and the song is beautiful.. I wish to know brezhoneg to understand:)

[Wobei]

ich habe das Stück vor 35 Jahren schon geliebt und ich liebe es noch immer!

[azelar90]

my adolescence

[MathPajo]

C'est un chef d'oeuvre pure... J'Aime Alan Stivell ahhhh que c'Est détandant jadore ca ^^

[steviehere1]

viva celtica libre

[drbobdrake]

The Breton language is related to Welsh gaelic wheras Irish is related to Scots gaelic. Although the written languages are different, a Welshman can understand spoken Breton. In 1998 Stivell sued Manau for using his melody in La Tribu De Dana but the judge ruled it was enough different that Stivell lost the suit.

[MykeSoBe]

This is not the version on his album "Again"! I like this version! (Which is why I bought that album!)

[schragemusik]

@MykeSoBe This version is not ruined by the 'genius' (hah!) of Shane McGowan.

[MrsBeasley55]

A long long time ago I saw this guy on stage, in Belgium. I love this song

[cuchukid]

what do you mean, it doesnt sound celtisch?????

first, work on your english!

there is no "general celtic language" at all but many different of them. this is breton or Brezhoneg, as mentioned below.

[mirry1994]

hmm it diesnt sound like celtisch....but i love the song soo much but when adoramus sung it it was a way better and the laugisch is even better ^^ but i didnt found on youtube xD soo i really like this one too=)

[Ulthek]

How does ' Celtic ' sound to you?

[mirry1994]

@Ulthek

im sorry im studying sorthof celtic but badly english, but.... yes it was wrong what i said but i was used to the adoramus version he sung it more openly, and i think this is the real version right? well my apoldies

[Ulthek]

@mirry1994 How can someone study a sort off celtic? Plus, I can't imagine someone studying celtic at the age of 16. ;o For the Heck of it, You may respond in dutch.

[mirry1994]

@Ulthek

heey heey

nou kijk ik hou van talen ik heb programma waar ik celts mee kan leren

zo leer ik celts en ook andere hele vreemde talen zoals japans,coreaans,chinees

maar daarom zijn me talen ook nog niet echt heel goed omdat ik soms een beetje te veel leer en nou ja dan verwissel ik dingen ^^ ja mijn droom is om wereld reiziger te worden en dan moet ik talen kennen en celts werd ik gewoon verlieft op en sinds dien ben ik gaan leren

[th3warr1or]

What's the song from 0:01-0:59?

[Dewality]

Lol, what do you mean? You may recognize the melody from a couple other songs, such as La Tribu De Dana - Manau or Inis Mona - Eluveitie, but it is still the same song...

[th3warr1or]

@Dewality

sorry. I thoght this song was a medley.

[Adalhard]

The whole video is a single song... Tri martolod

[Kerlerot]

That seems the beginning of Alan and his group !

[heliotropezzz333]

wonderful voice always

[sjpc33]

is this sung in the briton language?

[marieclaudenivot1950]

@sjpc33  YES!!!!!

[Zedwoman]

Watch his eyes. They are the eyes of a young man. Great artist!

[kerbps]

ha piu di 70 anni ormai, ma fa ancora concerti e recentemente ha fatto un nuovo cd

[rugbybach]

che fine ha fatto Alan Stivell?
