[meliruth918]

i just dont know that to say when i see Moya, it breaks mi heart, i wanna know her some day .. its my dream!!!!!!!

[fredtube17]

words by W.B. Yeats, what else!

[vickiehill1]

Oh no, the tears are here. This & Danny Boy do it everytime. It's just sooooooo beautiful it breaks your heart. My favorite Celtic Band ever.

[Svellia]

I wonder what Moya said to the whistle player at the end of the song????

[bluesagg]

@Svellia Big sister chiding little brother. :)

[bayridgephantom]

A terrible pity some of the customers didn't stop talking in their loudest voices when they were singing.

I'd pick a new pub venue the next time.

Terribly disrespectful behavior when wonderful performers were gracing the establishment.

[macylightfoot]

@bayridgephantom It's their family pub, so it's not just a random pub they chose.

[spudseamus]

@bayridgephantom yes it is an Irish custom --one that leaves me cold as well -- and im Irish

[shahilagh]

i m always blessed by irish music .. it touches me alot

[rockleevampire]

@shahilagh Amen to that :)

[jcbellec]

simplicité, beauté, plaisir et de la musique comme on aime chez nous

[LiangRome]

should have practiced it so the music matched up

[laxenburg55]

"Live at home" in Donegal - as ever!

[foredwin]

beautifully done

[femmedesbois04]

Je trouve très émouvant ce retour au source pour ce groupe pour un concert très simple et intimiste dans leur village natal...

[417051]

Wonderful, precious, sweet, beautiful, she, the song, both, thank you.

[sallythewerewolf]

[skydogz1]

[Budgerigarman]

That's it!! I'm going to Donegal!! Have a pint at Leo's!! Éire rocks!!

[jabberwock01]

She's beautiful.

[hanaiisao]

いままでB.Brittenによる編曲のクラシカルなスタイルの­演奏を聴いてきました。ソプラノ等の演奏です。この演奏はそれら­と異なっていて、とても親しみやすいものです。聴衆と演奏者が一­体となって、楽しんでいるところがいいですね。

[knock129]

ケルティック？アイリッシュ？

よくわかりませんが、こういう感じの曲が大好きです！

何かお勧めの曲があったら教えていただけませんか？

[raidereddie]

Leo's, is where they started out? I wish they'd play in Boston soon.

[Hermione1983]

is this really Clannad singing??

[muaddib81268]

Yes.

[Sportymike]

Of course it is!!!!

[chicakiwido]

Questa versione è bellissima..=)

[cesbass]

Davvero. Sublime. Torno indietro di...tanti anni....

[chicakiwido]

Devo cantarla per un concerto natalizio ed è fantastico fa venire i brividi.. è una poesia..=)

[flala2]

Too much vibrato ... it doesn't sound melo and sweet.

[nickazaf]

i agree flala2....it must be super legato and steady....

[LadyMacalla]

[su84si]

[cebrownf]

I've loved Clannad since first hearing of them in 1978 or so. Learned all songs I could that they sang in English, had the privilege of seeing them perfom while living in Dun Laohaire in 1982. Will always have my respect and loyalty.

[codi100]

Beautiful..

[Dubhy63]

I don't have a recording of 'Gleanntain Ghlas Ghaoth Dobhair' macalla100,but I'm planning to create a slideshow containing photos of the night.

[macalla100]

Hey Dubhy I was there that night also - check out my videos, they are not as clear as yours. Do you have a recording of them singing 'Gleanntain Ghlas Ghaoth Dobhair', the last song of the night????

[athdept1]

I thought it was great that Clannad was playing on that night.

[Dubhy63]

The man in question is Pól,it was great to see so many of the family on stage.

[Balor1]

Wonderful performance! I wonder who that was Maire was talking to at the end?

[gregoing]

It is the same man (looks like Pol) who was playing the whistle earlier in the song.
