The Water Is Wide | Celtic Woman - BELIEVE (Live from the Fabulous Fox Theatre In Atlanta)

[thistle2007]

Another comparison: the Charlotte Church version done when she was 15 - see it on YouTube (not the upload with the lyrics, the other one). Spectacular, to be sure, with the orchestra behind her, but with a different feeling than Lisa Kelly's interpretation here.

[brandy1java1]

Lisa Kelly is phenomenal. Her voice is so beautiful and uplifting. This is my favorite song on the Believe album.

[xAlyanaX]

Music that makes me smile even when I'm absolutely miserable. Thank you, Lisa and Mairead. :)

[100DiddlySquatxx]

I like Orla's version 10x better. Celtic Woman has completely lost it's concept and originality.

[erhea13]

@100DiddlySquatxx I don't remember Orla singing this song . . . you may be thinking of Cirrickfergus which has a similar beginning but is a completely different song.

[erhea13]

@erhea13 BTW I obviously cannot spell . . . I meant Carrickfergus

[100DiddlySquatxx]

@erhea13 No, she didn't sing it live, I'm talking about on her solo CD

[erhea13]

@100DiddlySquatxx I stand corrected, I have never heard her version.

[1sorryham]

@100DiddlySquatxx Actually, Orla did sing it live on her DVD "My Land", as a medley with Shenandoah.  It is also the final track on her first solo album "Orla: The Water Is Wide".

[1sorryham]

@100DiddlySquatxx Each version (including Chloe's original solo version) is different as each artist is *different* and not necessarily better. I do like this version, as it is a little more upbeat than the others. However, I like the earlier version that had all three Celtic Woman vocalists doing it together probably the best.

[100DiddlySquatxx]

@1sorryham But I like Orla's version 10x better. I understand that every singer is different, but I think that Orla's is the best, and this version to maybe too upbeat. Orla's cover of this song is by far my favorite.

[thistle2007]

I've never seen Lisa Kelly look and sound so beautiful, so happy, and so inspired as in this concert! What a gift to humanity!

[lynn1847]

What a disservice it is to a nice and beautiful singer - Lisa Kelly!!!!... PBS, please correct this distortion.

[lynn1847]

Can someone do something about this video??? It's "murder"!!! A nice song and singer is not given due accord here instead the music, lyrics and performance is distorted. How sad and disappointing.

[lynn1847]

Would have been nice if the way this was taped is continuously not broken off. It sounded like Lisa Kelly is having an attack of hiccups while singing. It's outrageous considering she sings really nicely and beautifully. Whoever posted this this tape should have reviewed his work. It's terrible!

[hestlund28]

She did it again.... Gave me goosebumps all over :D She is amazing!!!

[Phil88fromPA]

It really amazes me that so many other people are as in love with Lisa Kelly as I am. She truly has the voice of an angel! I am 64 years old and have heard many women singers, but only 1 other has moved me like Lisa, and that is Karen Carpenter - who I know is also a favorite of Lisa's.

[TheLadyWolf1]

I remember Seven Nations singing this. I kinda' like it better when the guy sings it, but this, as usual, is amazing!

[graciaestel]

Never fail to get goosebumps every time I watch this. It's incredible! I'm gonna miss Lisa this year...

[SwedishSeraphim]

Ladies and Gentlemen, your 2011 Irish Female Vocalist of the year!

[Etrichtaube1]

Dieses mail geht an David - David, alle wissen, Sie machen die Musik, Sie tätigen die Auftritte. Meiner Meinung nach ist es allerhöchste Zeit, einmal Ihnen, Sir, die Anerkennung auszusprechen, die meist im Beifall der vier Damen untergeht.

Erlauben Sie mir, Sir, Ihnen den allerherzlichsten Dank für Ihre Tätigkeit auszusprechen. Ich ersuche Sie, dies ebenfalls dem Meister-Drummer mitzuteilen. Mit größter Hochachtung, H.A.L.

[Etrichtaube1]

Laoise ist hervorragend - dieses Timbre in der Stimme !. Schade für den Ausfall im nächster Zeit, doch Dame Laoise wird hoffentlich wieder zu sehen sein. Danke, Dame Laoise, das es Sie gibt

[rampantmuses]

This is coming from a singer here, but I gotta say, her fingernails have absolutely NOTHING to do with her performance.Lisa sounds gorgeous and to say her fingernails detract from her performance is the same as saying the set detracts from the whole show. I do believe some of you would complain if you were hung with a rope made of pure gold, not because you were being hanged, but because the rope wasn't pure enough. Appreciate the music please and stop nit picking!

[efwsot]

*goose bumps*

You people with the finger nail thing? You're a bunch of morons! You're just jealous, because when Lisa Kelly sings, people are quiet. When you sing, the dogs on the street mistake you for a hound dog. Just sayin'...

[zuercherin2011]

what a lovely sign Lisa did at 2.03, it's absolutely one of my new fav songs

[misteredtom]

With her abundant beauty to behold, I've never really paid any attention to Lisa's fingernails. But, now that you mention it, there is absolutely NOTHING wrong with Lisa's fingernails.

Also, welcome to Susan McFadden, the newest Celtic Woman.

[Etrichtaube1]

Kein Komentar - das ist Lisa K. Eine Dame mit großartiker Stimme

[Ornythorhynchus]

the obviously very long fingernails degrade from the natural beauty of an otherwise totally perfect voice, woman, and performance

[celticlover1010]

@Ornythorhynchus...There's absolutely nothing wrong with Lisa's fingernails..

[TripBoomLikeThat]

@Ornythorhynchus Her fingernails degrade her voice? OK, I've heard everything now!!!!

Lisa actually looks in better shape than any of them - and well groomed.

[drmayeda1]

@Ornythorhynchus

Her fingers are nowhere near the active part of the mike only the body. Anyway, length of fingernails has nothing to do with singing

[Kirstieefly]

@Ornythorhynchus please explain how having long fingernails takes away from lisa in anyway? i would love to have her nails! :) her voice is amazing, she is beautiful, irregardless of long or short fingernails! nothing wrong with those nails either...

[xavierp0nce]

I like Chloe's version so much better....

[thistle2007]

What an incredible performance! Thanks for uploading - I didn't know the DVD was out for this. I'm ordering it now!

[gaeilge1O1]

@thistle2007...The DVD won't be available until 24 Jan 2012...this was recorded from the PBS broadcast then uploaded to You Tube..

[tracker929]

I'm new to celtic woman so far I havent heard a song I dont like thanks pbs for introducing me

[LoveisaFable]

Love this version...other versions are great as well, but Lisa's voice is something different in the best way

[kalynnmmp]

[efwsot]

Epic song! But I think I like Chlöe's version better. Nothing against Lisa Kelly, though! Still very beautiful performance. :)

[Rosato86]

I love Lisa K, Chloe, Mairead, and Lisa L.

But hearing this song just reminds me of Orla.

[pogo506]
