I never saw this footage...it is not on my DVD. AM glad that it exists.... :-) Love Alex's singing. It is on the CD which I also have. Don't understand how that happened, but oh well...
If it were scientifically possible, Alex should be sent back into time aboard the "Titanic". Her smile would have melted the iceberg and they would have never crashed.
In musical theatre, in which Alex has the most experience, it's a good idea to have strong facial expressions so that the audience can interpret them easily; however, it does look a little silly with the camera so close to her face. However, I cannot criticize any aspect of her performance. It was done beautifully and tastefully.
I am glad that I got to hear her do this live before she left Celtic Woman. I was a bit surprised at first, as I thought I remembered the song from somewhere, and about halfway through it, I remembered the animated Tarzan. I loved her version, but I think that Lisa Lambe could do justice to the song should she ever decide to perform it.
@Mausejule25 The original version is often considered to be better. Actually CW's version is quite different in the arrangement (plus, the singer is a woman instead of a man), so it's not great point to compare the two versions, they're just different and equally beautiful in their own way.
@Merlenzio I totally agree with Merlenzio, but.... I love this Version here much more than the one from Phil Collins :D With me it is often, that I like the Cover more than the original, but it depends on who is doing the Cover :) Or how I was feeling about the Original :) For example there are many Sarah Brightman or Celtic Woman Covers that I didn't like the Originals at all, but their Covers I totally love <3 :D If you understand what I mean xDD My English is not professional, sadly :)
Here's a thought: Charlotte Church is from Wales..She would be a great addition to the CWs, if she hasnt burnt out her beautiful voice by now by singing all that Pop, that is...
@MrReed314 I personally wouldn't like Charlotte. She is a good singer but I don't think her voice could blend well with the other girls, especially in these new sophisticated songs and arrangements. The voices of Orla, Hayley, Méav and Alex have proven to be way more versatile, IMHO. Plus, as you said, Charlotte has moved on a kind of music which is... Too far from Celtic Woman now. I think the group needs a new girl more bound with celtic music to replace Orla/Alex, maybe some girl from Anùna.
@MrReed314 And I forgot, I suspect there's some kind of rivalry between Charlotte and Chloe :-P They do almost the same songs and styles, but Chloe is more humble and lovely, and of course I think she has a better voice and technique which has much improved in these last 5 years.
This new girl isn't bad. But what happened to the other women who were in the group? There is only three of them left. Well really four if you count the one with the villion.
@Honey360Bee Méav and Orla left the group in 2007 and 2009 to focus on their solo careers. Alex left a couple of months ago to spend more time with her family, so now there's only Chloe, Lisa, Màiréad and Lynn. We still don't know if a fifth girl will join the group in the next months. I hope David Downes is searching for her, he always wanted a 5-girl line.
I am heartbroken Alex is leaving Celtic Woman! :-( But I understand her decision. THANK YOU ALEX for three years of blissful singing and entertaining behind-the-scenes videos! Perhaps one day you will return!
After an exciting Songs from the Heart spring tour of 81 shows in the US, we've confirmed another 47 dates this summer in the US and in Canada(!!), and 10 shows in Australia as well! On another note, we have some sad news…our fabulous friend, and singer Alex Sharpe has decided to take a full time break and will no longer be touring with Celtic Woman. Alex will be truly missed
Each of the girls has her own unique voice and style. From Deidra Shannon through Haley to Lynn, they are all special. The genius of David Downes brings out the best in all of them, singly or together...they are all Celtic Woman. There is not a sound like it anywhere.

This new addition to Celtic Woman sounds like one of those American pop singers. Also, I wish she'd change her facial expression to reassuring smile when she sings this song because she looks tortured. Won't Orla Fallon please come back?
@MomMiriam1 I think that she has a beautiful smile and you don't have to watch her sing to know that she is smiling. It's in her voice. Alex is quickly becoming one of my favorites. She is wonderfully genuine. Not forced like some of the pop singers you speak of.
I love this song!!! and i love the Celtic Woman!!! i sang this in the school telent show and everyone loved the song!! i love Alexes version better than the tarzan:) GO CELTIC WOMAN!!!!
I love all of Celtic Woman's singers, but Alex has this sort of happy radiance all about her! It seems as though she's so strong and always ready to take on anything. Love that smile =)
it doesn't matter who the original artist is, Celtic Woman makes it sound so much better! they r the new definition of what music is or should be! :))
Lynn also sings Carolina Rua. It's sadly not on the dvd, but Amazon has released a little video of it on their site, have uploaded it on my channel. Lynn is fabulous, and so is Alex =) Two great additions to CW...
Alex sings this song sooooo perfectly! I remember when I got to see Celtic Woman live at the Mann's Center in Philly & Alex sang this, I thought that it was sooooo wonderful and touching. Her voice is soooo beautiful for this song! <3 I can't wait for their Songs From The Heart album comes out!
This is beautiful. I'll watch this over High School Musical any day!
