Cruachan - The Fianna

[Kit087]

fuck thats a fantastic song

[CrawdaddyJoe]

Far be it from me to question, but when I saw a song called 'The Fianna', I must admit that a light and lilting tune was not what I expected... it's a nice song, but I'm not sure why they chose that style for The Fianna; one would expect something more martial.

[Unununio111]

Sublimi.

[Yuvalboo]

Amazing...

[narutofreak12312312]

I am in love . . .

[YorkGod1]

Does anyone know of any folk metal ballads that need to checked out? fire them this way cheers?

[KnightShave]

@YorkGod1 Eluveitie, Korpiklaani, Finntroll, Fferyllt, Alestorm (pirate metal), Arkona, Arafel, there are loads. There's also a Russian folk metal band, pretty unknown, called Woodscream. They're nice, too.

[YorkGod1]

@KnightShave cheers i'll crack on with them :D

[BlackFolkAndPiano]

it's a pity they didn't find a real harpist for this beautiful song... the electric sound is quite bad

[neilpagan80]

PURE BEAUTY FOR THE EARS

[koolkool3o5]

its weird how someone could come across such good music and dislike it. what made those people even come to this video? lol

[MouthOfTheUnknown]

that album art is great!

[gwalchafed]

this song is so epic, so irish, I am proud to have the possibility to live in this beautiful country. Sad I am gonna leave it this year, maybe I come back.....

[BrodEirennach90]

Slainte agus Eirinn go Brach! Hail Hail

[JohnnyVerarscher]

In the beginning it sounds like Carolan's Welcome!

[cilibinarii]

@JohnnyVerarscher Say it another time, maybe something special will happen!

[JohnnyVerarscher]

In the beginning it sounds like Carolan's Welcome!

[GMSamuelRhine]

i love the mix of tin flute and heavy guitar in this song they sound great at the same time

[MrUlsaire]

фантастический волшебный проникновенный мелодичный фолк-металл!Такого наверное ни у кого нет

[Amaravamp]

I wish I lived in Europe... they get the talented people. We (America) get everything else.

[GMSamuelRhine]

@Amaravamp yeah we just get evryones left over trash

[heroestratos]

5 nerds just died in klygon

[KatherineMathiowetz]

@heroestratos lol

[celzmccelz]

This is a poem about Gandalf from The Fellowship of the Ring. I guess I can see how it could be applied to the Fianna, "A deadly sword, a healing hand," etc., but it's kind of weird that they used it.

[Strifedragondude]

personally...The Fianna deserve a more kickass song...just MPO lol

[celtic4ever18]

i have irish roots and proud of it

[m00se321]

@celtic4ever18 Check out,,,YMIR-(balders Omen)

[kostaoz]

MUY BUENA CANCION...DESDE MEXICO SE LE APOYA A ESTA BANDA...

[38silvermoon]

[hammermelon]

This is just AWESOME.

[partisan72]

Fantastic song,awesomely creative band..Eireann go bragh!

[FedericoRosenfeld]

This is music for true. I wonder why I can't hear songs like this on the radio...

[alukkkard]

cuz radio sucks?!

[TheMiamifuentes]

radio is poot

[HardstylerArtoo]

Because it's not a song about bitches and money and cars worth more than some people's lives. It's better this way, though. We can keep the good music for ourselves, everyone else can get the crap on the radio and MTV.

[FedericoRosenfeld]

I agree

[Postscript624]

@HardstylerArtoo After all, bitches ain't shit but hoes and tricks.

[asderso]

@HardstylerArtoo people are brainwashed by the NWO who owns all music studios and promotes ONLY crappy stuff. Good music still can be heard but 99% of people go for the crappy one.

[pizzathahut]

@HardstylerArtoo Fucking right. Radio sux!

[cobhc6pounder420]

@HardstylerArtoo exactly



[TheOsmanAly]

yeah effin idiosas...what does marx and effin communism hafta do wid cruachan....its goddam rockin music...........so do what you came for here............listen to the goddam song

[Krisiun587]

dude that is the best comment ive seen on a youtube video

[TulkorHAOMARUSH]

@metalbassistSWED although some of those topics are good to discuss...i prefer this thread to contain only comments that relate to this band, song, and other things that are directly related.

With that said. Cruachan is an amazing band.

[axlleaf]

@metalbassistSWED

Epic fucking win for this comment, I'm tired of that shit infecting youtube.

[MoIrishBrigade]

@metalbassistSWED roflmfao lol "..die a virgin in Klingon". rofl Fuckin' A, man. Fuckin' A.

[metalbassistSWED]

@MoIrishBrigade haha yea, i got that from Fanboys.

[gleb202]

@metalbassistSWED It is thel stupid and shitty human nature. To argue about no matter what and to provoke arguments.

[silverwolfmusic999]

@metalbassistSWED great song

[heroestratos]

@metalbassistSWED yes this kind of discussion ruined all the beautiful elements of this music

[ANNA1981ist]

please listen to this music...it's perfect!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[metalbassistSWED]

@ANNA1981ist Thank you, you are a saviour. you actually come to YouTube for the right reason.

[ksavion]

this green chick look like my school teacher!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ha ha ha ha :P

[satanneverdies]

very interesting band

[wolf78ful]

ermosa melodia espero que mas personas de habla hispana se animen a comentar por que se carese de comentarios en español y es muy importante para la comunidad under hispanoparlante.

[lacruzdelachela]

-A güevo, esta de poca madre esta banda, ojala la escucharan en los micros, en lugar de la mierda que ponen, otra cosa seria......... bien por Cruachan!!!

[Somnophilia]

Nice song, thanks for share :D

[ghostofjamie]

[KnightShave]

[ghostofjamie]

The seriese is called Sweep , its about this girl who found out she was adopted after she meets this guy named cal , and he does witch craft , gets her into it , she finds out that she is a bloodwitch and her parents were from ireland apart of this clan the got killed my the "dark wave" . its really good . you should read it

[TheMagoW]

muito bom ...

[gwalchafed]

qualitygod is not amused!

[CelticMurphy1313]

especially with the way they treat their women and children.

people need to keep their bad comments away from song videos like this

this music is calming and soothing to the ears

[DAGDATA]

Exceedingly good music &

Ireland is not celtic its been proven. The "celts" where only a european culture not connected anyway to the *genes of the Mighty Irish, true

[RoadWarriorCainann]

lol no it hasn't, the Milesians did come here also our native language Gaeilge is linked to Celtiberian of Iberia & Galatia, also "Celt" is a modern term given to us, the Irish along with the Scottish, Welsh, also the Greeks called the Gauls Keltoi which meant also the whole gene things isn't true because if the myths are true then we're descendants of Noah but that can't be since his granddaughter and her crew died on the way back to Éire, also if we ain't Milesians then who are we then?

[BookstaB]

yeah hes right on this fur shure

[DOYJOH]

The language is merely a fascat of a culture not genetic in anyway.Whats the oldest language or writing in ireland?

[RoadWarriorCainann]

lol genetics? last time i checked the so-called experts couldn't decide whether we're Celts, Bretons, Pics or the Lost tribe of Judah and now they think we're Basques for crying out loud, and Gaeilge is the oldest language since it along with Welsh are the oldest living languages in Europe

[Canada1991]

If they are not Keltic by blood what are they? I know many have Viking DNA in them.

[BookstaB]

i do! McAuliffe-son of olaf

[valhoundmom]

yo! we are not a dog breed! ALL human mitochondrial DNA can be traced to Africa. and all Caucasians come from central Asia-the Kyrgyz and others near the Caucus Mountain area. And Ireland has most DNA commonality with Welsh, Sami, Berber, and certain groups in Mongolia.

[Canada1991]

What the hell do you mean a dog breed?...

That is one theory that we all come from Africa yes, even though it contains MANY HUGE flaws... Yes, the Indo Europeans are originally from the middle east, what's your point? The middle East was mostly white at one point.

Most similar to Sami, Berber, and groups in Mongolia?..... Yes... That makes SO MUCH sense... lmao Please explain the DRASTICALLY difference physical features then?

[beber9041]

Drastically differences?

They've got two legs, two arms, two eyes, two ears (I don't mention the balls), about five litres blood and a 1.3 kilograms brain...

Yes there are differences. Blacks are black, Whites are white. There are also about one million years since the first men. So, some got darker because there was a lot of sun, and some got paler because it was cold (that is a simple explanation, I agree xD). Other differences are only cultural. What the hell did you learn at school???

[Canada1991]

Oh please! Already you show your ignorance to the subject by believing in the Liberal myth that race is simply skin colour... Skin colour is one very TINY aspect of race, the main thing you study is there shape of their skulls. They have different eyes, ears, hair, feet, hands, noses, nostrils, etc..... The only way your offspring can ever have traits like them is if you inter breed with one. (A non white)

Read a history book, look at the countless accomplishments of the white race.

[ProphetOdeth]

well said, if Mick were here he would slap Mr.Beber9041.  14/88

[LatinWitchcraft]

Oh please! Already you show your ignorance to the subject by believing in the conservative myth that race exists... Skin colour is one very TINY aspect of a human, the main thing you study is natural selection among humans. They have different eyes, ears, hair, feet, hands, noses, nostrils, ect... The only way your offspring can have traits like them is through genetic recombination.

Read an anthropology book, look at how "races" can't and don't exist.

Fixed it for you.

[thisissparta1066]

Probably because all the tectonic plates drifted and pulled the large landmasses apart (south america, africa etc).. 'africa' wouldn't have been africa we know now..

[beber9041]

First: I am French and white, so my traits look probably as yours.

Now, do you realize that you are using the same arguments as 19th century scientist? The measures of skull shapes etc. are perfectly true. I won't argue on that. But the conclusions they did are desperatly meaningless. I lack room to develop my point, but the only thing I would say is that YOU should read a history book, about another culture, maybe it would open your mind.

What you are doing is cultural masturbation my friend

[beber9041]

Oups, sorry misunderstood. Don't care of my "First" :-P

And: Nice song btw ^^

[Canada1991]

Oh please! I have read an ENORMOUS amount on history. It is so obvious that race exists, compare blacks with whites! There is no fucking comparison. Whites have excelled in everyway imaginable, art, technology, military feats, etc. Many black tribes never evolved, many of them didn't even have the wheel before whites introduced it to them. I have never met a black that wasn't completely ignorant, not to mention they always seem to try and stereotype themselves.

[PhoenixFirewolf]

Try saying that to successful, intelligent African Americans today. o_O

[PhoenixFirewolf]

...Wow. I know plenty of intelligent African Americans who aren't even out of SCHOOL yet. Not all of them try to stereotype themselves, and not all of them use the race card. They do not want to be stereotyped, you just seem so eager to do such to them. You are close minded, ignorant, and yes, racist.

[Canada1991]

And not all of them are eager to pull the race card eh? Gauranteed every last one believes in the old myths such as whites being the majority of child mollestors/serial killers etc, it is actually the total opposite! Seriously, ask one of them to give you their view on certain historical events or any black issue and you'll see exactly what I mean! But anyways, this is totally irrellevent because I could not care less about America, I am only for saving Europe.

[PhoenixFirewolf]

I know plenty black people who aren't as you describe. The way you talk, I doubt you have ever spoken to one. The idea that you're 'saving' Europe is pretty parallel to Hitler's hatred of the Jews and the dream of a 'master race'. And we see how well that worked out for him. Why can't we all accept that we are human, and we share this earth?

[Canada1991]

lmao, I have met far more blacks then you gauranteed buddy. in fact I have lived with 6 of them in the past, and I used to live in a majority black area. You have no idea the millions upon millions of Muslims pouring into Europe every year! Btw, their hateful faith represents just about everything a bleeding heart Liberal like you dispises in this world. It has been proven that race exists, there is a 1% difference in the races! Would you like to see some proof?

[PhoenixFirewolf]

Only radical Muslims are of any problem. And even if their religion is everything against what I believe, so what? As long as they don't try to take action on it, I don't really give a fuck. A lot of shit in the bible is brutal and disgusting, but obviously, Christians don't follow it. And even if race exists, what does it matter? We are still all equal. We are human.

[Canada1991]

No, absolutely every Islamic alive is a problem. Hundreds of thousands of millions of them pour into Europe every single year and more Mosques are being built by the day. In England for example, new mosques are being funded straight from Saudi Arabia. Oh yeah, and thousands of whites are converting to Islam every year. Do you have any idea how many rapes Muslims are responsible for in Scandinavia alone? Its absolutely sick! Btw, I am completely anti Christian as well, I myself am Pagan.

[PhoenixFirewolf]

Also, you seem a little culturally insecure. Stop being paranoid about the people around you. Diversity is what keeps the world interesting.

[Canada1991]

lol.... Culturally insecure? Oh brother! I am not paranoid, unlike you and all the other Liberals I do not pretend things I don't agree with don't exist. I take everything for what it is and weigh out the pros and cons, there is no logical reason for mass diversity. I am not COMPLETELY against it, like getting rid of every last one of them, but hundreds of thousands/millions?.... Give me 5 pros and cons to the mass diversity being shoved down everyone's throat.

[tumadros]

@Canada1991 I have done a little weighing myself, and the only "con" here seems to be you, so get the hell out. "Omg, our race is danger liek seriously, protect the faith!" No, shut up, You sound like a Nazi. I'm an American of Irish decent and I like to keep my heritage alive and I do that perfectly well in NY; one of the biggest melting Pots of the world.

[Canada1991]

lol, thanks for the lecture Mr "I fight for the forces of good and Democracy cause I voted for Obama!" You did not answer my question though, but what else can I expect from a Liberal? Give me 5 reasons why "I" should completely embrace Multiculturalism, and 5 reasons why YOU and I shouldn't! If you were actually educated and not brainwashed this shouldn't be a hard task for you to do. Tell me, what do you think of the public school system feeding students anti white propoganda constantly?

[Nokitiman]

Canada's right, Liberals suck!

[Canada1991]

Answer me this, why is it nearly every multicultural society through out history has fallen apart or didn't go anywhere? Diversity brought about the end of Ancient Egypt, the last Pharoah was a black Nubian for example. It also brought down ancient Persia, btw, did you know that almost all the Middle East except for the Arab and Dravidian peoples were white? That is why you can still see some Iranians/Turks/Afghans with some Caucasian features.

[Canada1991]

I myself absolutely love diversity, that's why I fight to save this diversity..... The Marxist idea of diversity that you are all for is the most anti "diverse" thing ever created. How is there any diversity if its one giant mix?.... How is a Muslim Somalian woman all of a sudden a Swede just because she did the right paper work?..... What you need to remember is that the only reason diversity exists at all is so a nation can benefit economically from it. Are we? No, not really....

[tumadros]

@Canada1991 Actually, Marx was ANTI-RELIGION and believed in the collective over the individual. While diversity may exist in Marxist philosophy, what would be emergent is the identity of the collective, not of the individuals within the society. Financial benefit from Diversity? How so?

[Canada1991]

I am comparing multiculturalism to Communism, why? In Communism everyone is "equal" and its goal is to eliminate classes altogether and distribute the wealth equally. With Multiculturalism the goal is to completely get rid of all nationalism and install the belief in the people the melting pot theory is "natural" and race doesn't exist. What do you mean how so? People argue in favour of immigration because we need people to do jobs nobody else will. This argument is incredibly flawed though.

[jasonlmcclean]

i love ireland

[Sniffer194]

Great song. I can feel celtic athmosphere.

CRUACHAN FUKIN OWNS!

folk metal for the win!

[Canada1991]

You serious? That's terrible... How could anyone be for Muslims taking over any nation in Europe?

[beber9041]

Like the Jews sixty-five years ago, that's what you mean? Do you know that the world (= what is outside of your Island, which I love by the way) got in war because of speeches like that?

[dasun75]

[PrincessofDeath16]

Bellissima *.*

[trandafor]

Awesome! Cried.

[GMSamuelRhine]

great song pagan rock is awesome!

[RufusRamen]

Anyone know any Scottish Celtic Metal bands?

[kraiig]

There are some out there, but they aren't big or good... Cruachan is your best bet for anything truly celtic. Though there are some awesome scottish bands up in glasgow, shame they don't pick up a guitar and start hammering out some real scotch metal.

[RufusRamen]

Thanks.

I found a scottish band on Myspace Music called:

Alba Gu Brath

There preety good but only have 2 songs up and there working on a demo.

[ChesterLover]

alestorm is for sure pretty awesome

[PennyDreadful1]

Not really celtic though

[omgpwnd]

alestorm is good and scottish but they are not a scottish folk metal band. they make pirate metal, which is more english because pirates dealt more with the queens navy than the scottish people. i think it is just coincedance that they are scottish. but alestorm kicks ass anyway. pirate metal afterall is folk metal though.

[cattargood]

oh oh si siii amo a cruachan
