  • I`m a Dundee Craigie! Looking for Ilk!

  • A beautiful woman with a beautiful voice singing a beautiful song accompanied by a very beautifully arranged orchestra on a beautifully lit stage! This may not be the definitive version of Cragir Hill but bloody hell you are seriously lacking something if you can't grasp the level of artistry in this performance.

  • Like angel voice. Love her song so much.

  • Dick Gaughan: Craigie Hill, The definitive version.

  • wasn't this song about some sort of massacre?

  • ...Might be seeing Cara soon xD

  • Beautiful Soul x

  • Cara is always a pleasure to listen to, but she doesn't do the pain & emotion of this song justice!

    Listen to Dick Gaughan's version and see what I mean: Try getting thru' that with dry eyes!

  • Is there a DVD or something I can buy of this concert? Thanks!

  • perfect!i love hers song somuch

  • love her song, singing like angel.

  • my god! Just want to say that I'm an American who just came across Cara day before yesterday, and already she's become one of my favorite singers..... This Goddess has the voice of an angel!!!!!

  • effing FANTASTIC!

    Pretty sure I love her voice and this song!!!

  • Great song-she must be like one of the most popular singers in Ireland ? What a soft voice-great tones. I was listening to Sandy Denny " She moved through the Fair" and found Cara. You Tube is the bomb.

  • Love this one! Still Doloreas Keane's version is better I think :)

  • This IS a Northern accent lol, she's from Derry duhr lol

  • Does she sometimes sings in Gaelic?

    she's like a lord of the rings beautiful elf

  • simply outstanding voice so beautfull

  • Can anyone tell me how to get this video. It's not on Amazon or anywhere else for that matter, nor even on Cara's web site. My wife is a big fan, and her birthday is coming up soon. She would love this DVD/video.

    Thanks!

  • There are 2 Irish female singers who literally take my breath away, Dolores O'Riordan & Cara Dillon. <3 Eire & N.Ireland.

  • this is soo good :D cant wait to see her play in Bath! 29th of April! x

  • Cara Dillon you are just amazing. I am your biggest fan and I love you x

  • only angels sing like this.beautiful....

  • Personally I think Dick Gaughan's adaptation of this song is far superior , Cara may have a far sweeter voice but Dick deleivers with far more sincerity in my opinion , The lyric in this version is heavily drowned out by the Orchestra

  • MagicalKitten..... I don't think you should get upset by the comment regarding Lady Gaga for there is an element of truth in the comparison , Not to say that Lady Gaga is superior, she is not! but she will always remain more popular than an artist singing traditional music regardless of ability and talent

  • Beautiful and Blond ! Oops, but I am an American.

  • this is my favorite song!

  • I LOVE CARA DILLON! AAAAAAH

  • A beautiful song of Irish emigration. Erin go bragh.

  • Dolce la sua voce e la musica sembra la scala per arrivare al.cielo.

    Grazie.

  • breath taking there are no word that can express there true beauty of this stunning ladie she is so nautral

  • My head is now throbbing with anger, for I just read in a music forum that someone said Cara can never be as popular as Lady Gaga! Whoever this person may be, I declare them blasphemous and block-headed, and hope that they were drunk when they made this disgusting comparison, or else my curse with them till the end of their days! Long live Cara Dillon!

  • Whoops! Accidentally deleted my comment:

    As a Cara DIllon AND Lady Gaga fan, I'd like to point out that they're completely different genres. Lady Gaga is a self-proclaimed fame whore, and that in itself gives her an upper hand in popularity. Cara Dillon's music is more subdued and has so much more intrinsic beauty. Whoever compared the two was indeed block-headed.

  • Cara i love you,verry nice Song so viel Gefühl in der Stimme einfach wunderbar!!!

  • you're insipid twaddle... This is a lovely version of this song.

  • My two children and I happened to be at Navy Pier in Chicago as Cara Dillon took the stage. What an absolute Godsend. A beautiful voice to enjoy a beautiful sunny day with my son and daughter. Another one of those moments I will carry for a lifetime and I hope my children do too.

  • voice of an angel - you are so emotive you uplift the spirit. please visit brisbane australia - you have a big fan base here.

  • I live in Washington DC and am going to see Cara in concert at Joe's Pub in New York on Monday night, Sep 28. I can't wait to hear Cara's beautiful voice live!

  • I was there! Cara dedicated "Crazy Love" to me, which made the evening especially wonderful. Doesn't she put on a fantastic show?

  • I remember you. I was sitting at a table near the front, with my wife, you were sitting in the first row of seats behind us. I wondered why Cara dedicated a song to someone in the audience: I suppose you know her or have a professional relationship with her. "Crazy Love" was great and it was good to know she was paying homage to another Northern Ireland legend, Van Morrison. But singing along with Cara is intimidating - that voice! I'm the guy who asked her to sing Craigie Hill. She declined!

  • I wouldn't say I really "know" Cara, but I make jewelry and earlier this year a friend of mine from England asked if he could give her a bracelet that I made...I thought it was going to be from him, but he must have told her it was from the both of us! She and Sam knew from Cara's fan forum, The Broken Bridge, that I would be at the show and even put me on the guest list...I wasn't expecting the song dedication, though! It was certainly a very special evening for me!

  • Oh, have you seen the 2 videos someone posted from the show? LOL one is when they were gonna do Paddy and you called out Craigie Hill and then everyone started calling out requests! :)

  • This is an absolutley amazing performance.

  • Another beautiful, wonderful Irish singer :)

  • i love her music i went to

    see her in concert once at a small theartre and got her autograph she is my idol

  • This is wonderful - thnx for posting it

  • her voice is so sweet.

  • Beautiful. I'm glad I found you Cara. Come to Tasmania, Australia and do a concert!!

  • @001tread nice comment glad u guys feel the celtic flava

  • @001tread And stay there. Your northern Ireland accent grates on the ears.

  • @edotoole

    And fuck you very much! Who asked you to listen ya gobshite? That's a Derry accent! If you don't like it, blow!

    Now wind yer neck in & fuck off ya sad sack!

  • @edotoole - Yer a twat...did your wife run off with a Northern fella or something?? - Don't hate us all because of it! - I'm sure she'd have run off with any man....or beast for that matter...just to get away from you.

    was she @ WOMAD.?

  • Perfect song, brilliant voice... so beautiful and tender indeed

  • what a voice..amazing

  • What a brilliant performance! I hope she plays some concerts in Germany too.

  • 5 stars are not enough for rating this song. it's just great!

  • This is gorgeous. I love Celtic music.

  • WOW!!! This is so beautiful!!! I already loved this song, but with the orchestra it's sounding even more gorgous.

    I fell in love with her music when I was on a holiday in Ireland 4 years ago, but I never heard her sing live. She has a wonderful voice and I hope there will come a day I can see her in concert, but I don't expect her to come to The Netherlands....;) Well, we'll see, you never know. Celtic music is quite popular over here!

  • this is so beautiful.....i'll forsake friends and realtions....she can sing.......not just like a lil but like big tym singing...

  • Love her voice...It's awesome!  ^^

  • Songs like a Celtic style. It is awesome. Love it!

  • Did Cara hapen 2 do any gigs in the nerve center in Derry years ago? Such a beutiful voice.

  • I met her at a hotel in Boston!! Beautiful woman, very very nice. Very cute kids.

  • beautiful voice, beautiful Irish song.

  • just like cara's exceptional performance of black is the colour. she once again sings an outstanding live song from the heart with real crisp beautiful vocals . well done to cajun . for putting these two lovely songs on youtube and giving us the chance to hear real breathtaking music . also check out her live version of broken bridges posted by fallingstar10 . totaly exceptional voice .

  • Her voice resonates in my soul. :) .

  • I just listened to Cara's sister Mary singing a sad song about emigration and was linked to this lovely video and song that I have grown to love. Cara's new album "Hill of Thieves" is quite stunning and is on general release on 26th January, so do check it out, I guarantee that you will not be disappointed. Cara's singing just gets better and better and Sam Lakeman's piano playing on that album is absolutely breathtaking.

  • dumb question--is Cara's sister Mary, Mary Dillon of the group Deanta?

  • Indeed

  • Why isn't she being promoted in the US. She seems to be one of the best female traditional singers in Ireland. I think she'd do really well over here.

  • This is a beautiful performance. Cara Dillon is a musical wonder. She has a DVD out too, and it's fantastic.

  • how old is this Song ?

  • she has the voice of an angel and looks like one to

  • gorgeous!

  • very fine song young lady.

  • no one even comes close

  • I love her voice so much!

  • beautiful..

  • Cara does a first class job here. She delivers in the 'sean nos' style, with the backing of a full orchestra, to produce a hunting and spine-chilling vocal on a ballad about economic emigration. This lady is a real treasure.

  • Ah owl Cara she's deadly, I love her voice.

  • I love her husband. lol. Sam Lakeman - wot a legend x

  • wonderfull.

  • too  beautiful

  • Very beautiful song 让人遐想!

  • just like cara's exceptional performance of black is the colour. she once again sings an outstanding live song from the heart with real crisp beautiful vocals . well done to cajun . for putting these lovely songs on youtube & giving us the chance to hear real breathtaking music .

  • a most beautiful voice.only heard of her recently,now i have 2 cds......

  • Now that you know of her, look out for ticket sales and watch her perform live.

  • so beautiful!i collected many of her songs.

  • What an amazing voice! How proud are we she's Irsh! My favourite song of hers is There were Roses!

  • A lot of English people have the image that all Irish women are Gorgeous Elf like creatures who can all sing perfectly - Cara doesn't do a lot to diswade this perspective :).

    As a Welshman liveing in England best I've got is Tom Jones and Charlotte church... you deffinatly win.
