A Song for Tara

[Meathcat]

Lovely video & song. However it should be pointed out (because nobody on this page seems able to find out for themselves) that the M3 motorway was not built THROUGH the Hill of Tara, it was built 2km away from Tara. It WAS built through an historic area and unfortunately it went through the beautiful Skryne/Tara Valley. But show me anywhere in Ireland that hasn't been built on something significant? Tara is still there, still beautiful & lives to fight on another day!! :-)

I have just learnt of the road being built through The Hill Of Tara.... and i am NOT happy, This was where Kings ruled over ALL of Ireland, where pagan and Christian festivals were carried out, where the dead Kings Of Ireland were buried... and we had to go and build a fucking road through it...... DAM THIS POXY GOVERNMENT!!!!!

[nirelli]

I can't even watch the video-- it makes me so fucking sad.

Lovely video.

[jambospirit777]

Oh how will we stop this insanity of destruction?

Shall we continue to allow such atrocious behavior and leave nothing to our children to inherit, but tar and concrete?

Who are these developers and governments that have no conscious or compassion?

Fools of arrogance born of ignorance, they have no soul

Their destructive actions prove their unworthiness to lead or make any kind of sound judgments. Pitiful, pathetic, and decidedly psychopathic misfits.

[taraloveb]

My name is tara and I am going to Ireland in 2 days and I will see that hill

[TheTbubbles]

My name is Tara and my name means hill in Ireland so I'm going to stand up for this to :D

[Meathcat]

@TheTbubbles No it doesn't, hill in Irish is 'Rath'

[TheTbubbles]

@Meathcat ohh....heh i knew that(:

[samjo27]

the one road i will forever refuse to travel down... how DARE they do this to our heritage... this vid is on my faves and every time i watch it i get a huge feeling of anger and hatred towards our government.... Teamhair na Ri will never be forgotten by us true irish

[LOCUSTHATER666]

why does this have to happen.......

[2TMW]

omg i thats my name i love this song!!!!!!!

[BarnaTiborKaresz]

Destructive motorway-project: what can be done now?

[BarnaTiborKaresz]

I love this song and this singer woman! I was in Tara. I think this place and like that (celtic languages, ogham alphabet,...), a heritage of humankind: need to protect! Blessed Easter for Irish Nation! Tibor Barna hungarian etnographer and political scientist, Norway

[Pichiniki1]

Temhair, this won't end like this, I promise.

[acerb45666555]

why does the Dublin government want to wreck Irelands historical sites like this?? History is why tourist go there! if the history is overcome by an American type "Asphalt Nightmare", no one will visit . not me thats for sure! i want to see the land!! not concrete and parasitic shopping malls!

[LilysApple]

they built the road... its due to be opened in march... they destroyed most of the huge sites when the irish government changed some laws... they no longer need to preserve sites, just photograph and record where they were... the fight is over... RIP Teamhair. So sad, the world has lost one of the most magical places on it..

[jkcrystal2]

WOW i love this video great job!

Can u please tell me what is the name of this song and who sing this too?

[LilysApple]

Celtic Women -" The Voice".

I love it too. Enjoy

[Pegster1356]

I am a proud Irish American. Over the past five years I have been studying Irish history. This should have never been touched. The history of Tara is so important to the Irish people. Damn shame. The U.S. is no better. It's all about the money.

[flyhigh1213]

My name is Tara :)

[youngkeita]

Nice video. Please what is the name of the song? I would really appreciate it if you could tell me. Nice video!

[LilysApple]

Celtic Women -" The Voice".

[xotaraxo727]

did they ever put the road yet?

[masamuneangelgurl666]

Not to my knowledge yet. This is really distressing me though.

[Elevationary]

They did,and it looks strange,if you are a Meath man,but there should be a law for all people involved in construction,that if they find any thing,that it should be controlled by Irish archaeologists,And i mean Irish Archaeologists.I remember one time bus Eireann use to pick up french Archaeologists from the N3,i found that strange.

[Elevationary]

By the Way the British call the N3 the M3,so don't be confused..........

[Elevationary]

I am not sure if this was used to make it easy for tourist's to travel from England to Ireland,but they have made their own minds up that the N1,N2,N3,N4,N5,N6,N7,N8,N8,N9,­or all the roads in Ireland as M's

[Meathcat]

@Elevationary 'N' means National Road, 'M' means motorway. We're not as stupid as you have made us out to be

[byodomusic]

I'm surprised, I only knew Tara, the godess before I watched your vid. Seems the name Tara stands for beauty ;-). I wonder about todays situation for your vid is 2 years old.

Thanks for showing the beauty of Tara!

[samjo27]

@byodomusic the situation is simple... the built the road... its due to be opened in march... they destroyed most of the huge sites when the irish government changed some laws... they no longer need to preserve sites, just photograph and record where they were... the fight is over... RIP Teamhair

[LilysApple]

[acerb45666555]

ive come to the conclusion that Tara and its surrounding area must be protected!! not one sign or gas station will be on those holy grounds!..........ps: Natives over here fight a hundred battles like this!

[LilysApple]

[popetpoptwilight]

[kagomeateinuyasha]

[samjo27]

at least we have a small victory... they've brought in the legisture to stop them building more than the roads, but its still not enough. RIP teamhair... always in our hearts

[LilysApple]

SO sad.

[tarafly67]

Je ne me lasse pas d'écouter cette sublime chanson, celle de mon coeur.

[shadowsandnight]

I've traveled around the world and never before have I been touched like I was at Tara. the tower of london was nice, greenwich was fun, but Tara... was significant.....

[nimlothnimloth]

So beautiful.......

Tara

I love Tara... I've left there a piece of my heart.

Davids harp, the ark of the covenant and Tea Tephi may very well be buried under the mound of the hostages. The tribe of Dan colonized Ireland even before Israel fell. Tea came after Judah fell.

[celticbritain]

ERIN GO BRAGH, we won't let them rape a Celtic Country!

Never again!

Brought back some great memories of my visit to Tara. I look forward to going back someday.

[BeatlesFanYeah]

Fantastic song:

Who wrote the music / lyrics?

Who is the artist singing?

If she's part of a group, what is the group's name?

Is this particular recording featured on an album? If so, what is its title?

Where can I find a copy of the lyrics?

And don't stop fighting till Tara is saved!

[LilysApple]

The groups name is Celtic Woman the Song is "The Voice" The lyrics are below.

[Widze36]

Wonderful video -5/5

[germanengeneering314]

Please don't tell me they bulldozed it. please.

[JAGODA1439]

Great video/song 5 stars for you.

Thanks.

[Deotyma7]

Beautiful !!!!!!!

[conochi1]

II remember waking up to see the great Teamhair na Rí when I lived in Ireland. For 2 years i would walk to the hill and lookout to Ireland. I remember seeing the great Wiclow mountains and The Boyne Valley that motorway should be butchered, destroyed, and shoved up the planners \ / (.)(.)  ^^ __

[EireGoon]

I love this song! And personally I prefer this version to the one that won the Eurovision.

Have they saved Tara or not??

[LilysApple]

Hi Eire, There still fighting bless um.

[LilysApple]

they built the road... its due to be opened in march... they destroyed most of the huge sites when the irish government changed some laws... they no longer need to preserve sites, just photograph and record where they were... the fight is over... RIP Teamhair. So sad, the world has lost one of the most magical places on it..

[nokkie335]

who sings this?

[LilysApple]

It's Celtic Woman....The Voice

[Drzacksmith]

This is a FUCKING disgrace, they done the same thing over here with Twyford Down in Hampshire, SSSI site, Ancient Monument, AONB, still put the Bulldozers through the lot.

What got me they were trying to use the laws that protect the SSSI site, against the protesters. Unbelievable!

[TarotSkye]

How could they destroy this? They have no right!!!!

[AnonMomAnon]

the greed and corruption of those in power who are pushing this highway through the tara valley will be their everlasting shame for all of eternity. older than the pyramids. older than stonehenge. LET'S PUT A ROAD THROUGH IT?

this is madness. you cannot ever undo this! all is NOT well in ireland. i curse those who would only have tara live in the hearts of the irish people.

SAVE Teamhair na Rí!

a lovely voice singing a lovely song for such a tragedy. i am grieving for our ireland.

[geobiologie]

Préserver le patrimoine de l'humanité en prennant conscience des trésors à porté de main...

[jasonkelly718]

WAKE UP IRELAND the goverment are taking away our history . TARA yes its older than the pyramids.would you knock them down? SO WAKE UP IRELAND and let your voice be heard its your right don't let them take it.stop it now.

[avalonaviir]

why do that to a sacred place? i loved the video by the way )o( blessed be

[LilysApple]

Thanks Avalon, Because it's all about money and progress not history and the respect for it. Shame, so many preple have spent 1000s of man hours to save Tara.

[avalonaviir]

i understand how you feel my ancestry is traced back to ireland though ive never been there

[upthera5]

class video!!!!!!! a lot of people see ireland as filled with war and terrorists (just so u know the IRA are freedom fighters) but thx for showing our more peaceful nature... although that is where we lost a huge battle to the brits in our rebellion. Tiocfaídh ár lá!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[avalonaviir]

i see ireland a as a gentel place

[Mendisal]

I WILL.

[univers11]

Maybe one day '"pourrons-nous nous rencontrer"....

[univers11]

Lily...you are like this video.Beautiful and "aerienne "et "insaisissable"....I give to you a million stars from my heart and my soul...From my L...;Patrice.

[jimsim3]

I've just seen a few films on UT about Tara My!MY! whats wrong with people. I did not realize that it the hole valley there going to destroy, the valley of Irish kings. for a short cut to save little bit of money. where's the public servants ? where's the Irish leaders. what do the say... this should have world heritage, this is so WRONG

[jimsim3]

Its a crying shame...this new road will take something from Tara's magic. your history is bound by your ancestor, it the respect that shown them is the respect we show each other.

We have the same problem at a burial site called Treignath. the tractors are there now

ripping up the ground for a industrial site.

MR McDonald's on the way. SAD

A good web page is.. the Megalithic Portal

Your film beauful lily...*****)o(
