  • I LOVE YOU GIRLS!!!!!

  • excellent

  • ce n'est pas du playback tu peux pas joue en plaback comme ca ! et tu vois d'ailleur le violon attache au micro !!!

  • I love it! I love celtic music!

  • wowwwww!!! amazinggg

  • Perfect !

  • Ow my god! that's sound gooood!

  • That green violin is looking epic! One day I will be as skilled as the Celtic Woman! And that violin shall be wielded by ME!

  • Assez d'accord avec supermissmini... pour avoir fait du violon pendant 8 ans, je sais de quoi je parle. Je crois que même mon prof y serait pas parvenu et pourtant il a donné à Vienne, Paris, en Russie, 'fin un peu le tour du monde des scènes en fait donc c'était pas un branquignol...

    Bon faut quand même admettre que si c'est du play-back elle le miment super bien, surtout en mouvement ; et de toute façon c'est magnifique.

  • @Stalker2008 se n'est pas du play-back ou voie les entenne deriere leur violon ;)

  • that's what i call PLAYING damn GOOOOOOOD music!! <3 Mairead i love you :D

  • I love them, they play so georgous!

  • i watched this exact performance growing up and this is the reason i am the musician that i am today!! And this style is still my favorite!! ahh what childhood does to you!! hahahah <3 <3 <3

  • You all know that is mother and daughter RIGHT

  • @justashitnugget  whattttt??? omg i never knew!

  • @justashitnugget No haha they're not mother and daughter, That's Cora Smith. Máiréad's mother is Kathleen Nesbitt, although she as well is a violinist as Máiréad. :)

  • WOW Amazing

  • i just love it

  • Sans vouloir les vexer, je doute qu'il soit humainement possible de jouer du violon en courant... Donc, soit ce sont des extra-terrestre, soit c'est du play back.

  • @supermissimini

    Pas faux, mais c'est classe quand meme !

  • @supermissimini

    Ca c'est déjà vu, plus d'une fois, courir, danser... Les celtes, tout comme les gitans d'ailleurs, vivent le violon autrement que d'une manière classique ou encore académique. Perso pour l'avoir vu de mes yeux en festival a Galway et dans la rue à Dublin j'imagine ca tout a fait possible :)

  • @supermissimini Mais bien sur que si que on peut courir avec un violon je te signale qu'elle on pas 1 an d’expérience elles elles savent jouer au moins

  • is légendy my love!!

  • It sounds like dueling banjos only with violin's. Love it. Archangel0011@knology.net

  • LEGEND !!!!!!!!!

  • wow!!

  • look at them rockin out in there heels. that's no joke

  • c'est MA-GNI-FI-QUE!

  • Yes the strings on their bows are snapping, and look how excited they are looking at each other, eyes sparkling and faces delighted! They are completely in 'sync', not only skill-wise but emotionally as well. A love for art creating an unseen communication between two people like only a shared passion or love for something can!

  • @goodisno1 Et bien c'est un son horrible , pas du tout mélodieux ... Elles s'acharnent sur l'instrument pour en sortir un son rauque et toujours plus fort . Bref, c'est de la musique de sauvage , jouée par deux blondes surexcitées !

  • Comment removed

  • @Frenchkisssss les gouts et les couleurs, ça ne se discute pas mais le manque de respect, si ! tu as le droit de ne pas aimer ne sois pas si étroit d'esprit ! et puis ces musiciennes sont juste passionnées et à fond dans ce qu'elles offrent ! car la Musique est un don et offert comme un cadeau ;-)

  • If Mairead ever needs a break from CW the other girl can replace her!! she awesome too

  • Simply fabulous!

    These two ladies have music in their Irish blood. They play so naturally. This Violin's party makes us feel "happy"....

    thanks.

  • One word...Fantastic!

  • ahaahhah this is like the first time i've ever seen Mairead not in a dress ahha

  • I wish I was irish

  • This is such "feel good" music... Thank you for that!

    And I can´t decide if it´s Irish green or British Racing Green on Máiréads violin ;o)

  • @jdjyasjgd it's emerald green you hethan

  • @mickish1953 Heathen it is then ;o)

  • @jdjyasjgd it's emerald green 

  • @jdjyasjgd LOL I'd say since she's very much Irish, we'll give her the benefit of the doubt...It's Irish green.

  • @djsting You might be on to something there... Hey, why dont we call Ireland something along the lines of "The Green Isle" or some such? :oD

  • mairead nesbitt is the best ever i love her so much she is really great

  • Taoufik de Maroc:  20/20

  • lol.....im surprised their bows havent broken

  • @NocturnaTagris

  • can any one help me with some irish music conductors..or the album name ...(of whom I dont know the name.....hope it will strike me when i see them ) in which he and his group plays titanic in flute followed by bunch of violins.Near to the end of the album his group plays -ever loved a woman in a guitar once again followed by violins.....

  • @seriouslyloud you're looking for the song "Irish Party in Third Class". should be on the James Cameron Titanic's sound track.

  • troppppppppppppppppppppppppppp fortesssssssssssssssssssss elles sont superbes awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • woo.

    I sure admire these women.

    I wish I could dance and play a violin at the same time in high heels~!

  • Holy crap how in the world do they even keep time lol, i play the guitar and i like to move around during shows, and "get jiggy with it" , but dang. lol You are not playing a song or performing, you are just plain having fun! that is incredible! i wish i could play as well as to not have to worry at all. Thanks for the great video!

  • Holy crap how in the world do they even keep time lol, i play the guitar and i like to move around during shows, and get jiggy with it, but dang. lol

  • c'est quoi ce sourire stupide qu'elles ont tout le temps..?

  • @SakataEio

    Préfèrerais-tu qu'elles aient des mines d'enterrement ou des masques d'horreur comme à l'Halloweeen.?

  • two nice girls for a very beautiful music..!!!

  • where can i get sheet music for this

  • das ist wunderbar !!

  • WONDERFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUL 

  • great great great great song celtic for ever :-) :-) :-)

  • Does anyone know if it's possible to get a "Karaoke" version of the song, without the fiddles, just the backup beats? I want to play it myself, and it would be cool to have the background too :)

  • SMACK!!

  • Wow that is just so brilliant. Thanks for posting.

  • ok i can play that song fast to bot i cant dance at the same time in hegh heels il breake my neck and fall off stage Máiréad is amazing and the oder girl to bot dont no her name true Queen of Fiddle(violins)

  • amazing!!!!!

  • They're playing the fiddle :)

  • super....

  • Musica bella da vedere :-)

  • I'm in love with Cora...... :) I could watch her play all day.

  • i would let them both take turns smacking me in the face with there violin bows!!!

  • If this live, where is the accordion player and the rest of the band? very clearly playing along to the CD. The last tune , Boys of Malin, is almost all accordion and whistle. The fiddles are way back in the mix , just like the studio recording. That's not to say the are not good players, they are, but it's not live.

  • @fiddle0351 If you watch the DVD you will see where the other instrumentalist are, they are backstage playing into microphones. Flatley was showcasing his fiddle players here so the other musicians would be an unnecessary distraction on stage.

    All the music in this show was live, even the music for the dancers.

  • OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!

    es lo mas genial ke e visto XD

  • Well, Santa, I've been a good boy (for the most part). I'll hang a pair of pantyhose by the chimney with care in hopes that you soon will be there. Please leave Mairead in them for me. :D

  • @nach752 and other detractors: That Mairead and Cora can do this and you cannot is precisely why you are watching them and not the other way around. :)

  • Oh my god. If you can watch these two doing this number and not break into the biggest smile, there is something wrong.  :D

  • SO DEFINITELY the Pixieland Express. :D Mairead and Cora are both awesome. Thanks for sharing this and to alainvg for posting. You have a fan forever in Dallas, Texas. :)

  • They play live :) i see you never been to LoTD to watch them play...Mairead even ripped a string apart while playing so thats a good proff

  • Secondly their expressions exactly match with the tones of the violin which proves they are playing live. I have experienced it but not Violin.

    Even the best actor will not be able to do this unless he is actually playing the violin in the right way.

  • I LIKE THE SONG.

  • Máiréad Nesbitt in particular is noted for bouncing around the stage playing live. She also plays a lot with Celtic Woman, its worth searching on them as well for more of her. She's real good :)

  • They must be violin geniuses if they can play this quick and this good while jumping around. :)

  • I have the show and these artists perform LIVE and they are PLAYING this live with wireless transmitters to the sound system. The transmitters are in body packs in the back of their dresses. The video is slightly out of sync but that is from the YouTube server.

  • jedva čekamo da stignu u Zagreb :)

  • this is the difference between playing with a passion for it... and playing because your good at it...these girls are legit and amazing and absolutely gorgeous!!!

  • Here we go again!!!! The Seltic Goddess!

  • they are really playing its true

  • Their not playing the violin,they first recorded then just did that so it looked like they were really playing,it's amazing how pretty they sound!

  • A more than pleasurable experience that left me thoroughly in touch with expressionism

  • One of the most buityful things youll ever hear !

  • they are having a WHALE of a time!! go girls!!!

  • I don't think they are really playing. Running around and hitting the right notes would be quite difficult.

    Either that or the sound is out of synch.

  • conjunto de belleza y musica , excelente

  • Absolutely amazing ! I wish i could play like them :)

  • I must say that though I prefer a more classical approach to the violin, these two woman sure know how to play.

    I love how both of their bows are fraying by the end.

  • chulisimo!!! :)

  • so cool

  • First, two quaint and uncontroversial expressions: thank you and Im sorry. Thank you for all the comments, which were, by and large, thoughtful and passionate. If the rules were the vine, your comments were the fruit.

  • yes...his two ladies are the best celtic violin players...

    i love them !

  • WOW

  • For the people who need Confirmation.. Máiréad Nesbitt, and Cora Smyth are playing Live. Their Violins are electric violins and are most likely plugged into a large Amp somewhere so the music is more Projected hense the reason for the prolonged ending. And if you see Máiréad Nesbitt's videos around youtube, she is Bouncing and skipping around the stage as well. She even said in her interview "I like moving around the stage." I hope that clears up some of the questions.

  • @moondancer33 And ofcourse it s not uncommon at all for youtube to just push video/sound out of sync :)

    Great tunes filled with energy (Y)

  • phenomenal!

  • ok out of the 2 mairead nesbitt is the best cause she is sure talented

  • I looooooooove this. I still got this on an old VHS :))))

    I love Feet of Flames. "Riverdance" never reached up to where Michael Flatley is.. :)

  • I'd love them both while they play the violin. Yummy fiddlers and genius music, wish I was there.

  • creo que el violin fue echo para la hermosa musica irlandesa

  • This was great, you can see from 3:40-3:41 that the short haired woman had frayed strings...that's what happens when you play the mess out of them lol...they were awesome...(and very attractive may I add) Irish American Pride from Virginia!

  • not the strings are frayed... the bow is.

  • yeah that's what I meant to say oh well...btw when I say "play the mess out of them" that's a good thing where I come from just in case someone wants to comment nastily like a lot of youube commenters do sadly.

  • realy extra ordinary, beautiful, is song of the dreams

  • she can play my instrument anytime

  • Can someone tell me any band or group that make music like that? I just love these violins and I NEED more.

  • I think the girl on the left is from the band "Celtic Women" They play this style of music

  • orizan yes the one in pants is mairead from celtic woman. shes awesome

  • bond, Escala, Break of Reality.

  • try "vitamin string quartet" :)

  • @ caiodbs, here's a quick list to get you started: Ashley Macisaac , Mairin Fahy, Leahy, Mackeel, Enter The Haggis, Gaelic Storm (who did the Irish music for the movie Titanic), and then more traditional stuff like Chieftains and such, if you're into that. And @ Orizan, Mairead Nesbitt (the better player of the two in this vid; with the green violin) is the fiddler for Celtic Woman, yes. She's technically standing stage right.

  • wow, you are reallly desperate to prove me wrong, its kinda funny how i am worth that much of your time, i just wanted to throw in my 2 cents, but WOW, you prolly have no life at this point. later

  • Yeah, I basically stopped replying to his comments.

    Life is easier this way.

    I hate when people are so blinded by their ways,

    they can't see change.

  • And what can you "superior white person" say that you can do better than a "lowly black person"?

    I'd like to know.

    Because as far as I can see, you're only arguing something that is neither morally or politically correct with me.

    Seriously.

    I'm going to a nationally ranked school.

    I have done over two hundred hours of community service.

    I've been taking violin lessons for two years.

    As you can see, I am not by any means lowly.

    And where it counts, I'm better than you.

    Now what?

    ohhh, i get it, youre asian, sorry!!!

  • LOLZ.

    No I'm black,

    I'm just one of those people that don't like being called "lowly"

    You see how some people act towards my race.

    I hate that and though I know we're not "the best" we deserve the same amount of respect

    as any race.

    Because as much as that GUY doenst wanna admit it, we're part of this country and have given it alot.

    If it werent for us blacks, you wouldnt have America because it was built on the backs of slaves.

    So you understand why I feel irritated with him, right?

  • yasa i feel ya man.... dont take no crap from people.

  • slight history correction - blacks werent used until the late 1700s before then white british whites and called them indentured servants. (used american whites to) BUT you are correct in 99.9% of your statements ^.^ really i just wanted to say that - the only people of other race i dont like are the people of other race that think they are above the laws and rules and feel they dont have to act according to social rules because of their color (that goes for white, black, etc etc out of room) ^.^

  • Your race doesn't deserve respect because respect isn't given out by race. It is on an individual basis on how a person acts and if they work hard to provide for themselves and their family. Every race could complain about things not being fair for them or their ancestors. Just seem blacks complain the most and try to use it as leverage to get something.Go out and work hard and be respectful then get your respect. Just so happens "black culture" and "hip hop" are so disrespectful why respect it?

  • This is why our nation isnt going anywhere. Because of people like you who can't be more excepting. You don't have to respect everyone. Hell, even I cant respect the prostitues and drug dealers of my race. But guess what. We're not all like that. Give us some credit. We're not all trying to let the man keep us down. Fine, dont respect us. But don't insult us to our faces. I listen to rock. I listen to everything. And they don't happen to be sending out a better message than rap is.
  • @YasashiiMerodii

    " the man" doesn't keep you down, you do. Stop looking for someone else to blame for your own failures. You are typical.

  • HAAA!

    Sorry, but that was funny.

    No.

    I'm black.

    I'm not sure whether to take that as a compliment or insult.

    I'll just take it as a compliment.

  • also, i am american, and america is the world power right now, so therefore, i am superior to you :D

  • from what you just said, you're a lowlife piece of shit, lower than the so called "inferior black race". Im not even black and yet hearing that disgusted me. It's people like you who keep this world so racist, good job

  • would like to meet an irish girl?

  • yEAH, BUT IT DOES NOT EXCEED MY ABILITY TO STICK MY FOOT UP YOUR ASS.

    Keep insulting my race and you'll see how violent we can get.

    You're entitled to your opinoin on 50 cent and Rihanna, but to insult a whole race?

    You must have to much time on your hands if you've got time to analyze a whole fucking race.

    Next time, make us all happy and keep your RACIST points of view to yourself.

    This is the 21st century.

    We dont have slavery anymore, dude.

  • are all irish violine playing girls

    that beautiful

  • and dont u mean violin not-violon????

  • yes they are playing live, i was at this concert

  • lucky you :D

  • Can anyone tell me where can you find the sheet music for this monsterocity?

  • what's with the ABBA-outfit? ; )

  • Oh just becaude 50 Cent's music is dreadful, it does not mean that blacks can't produce music. They gave us Jazz, Blues .. beautiful music styles on which we all build on..

    But I agree neither of those two can't make up anything good. It's tasteless..

  • Do us all a favor, go listen to some Jr. Walker and the Allstars, and STFU.

  • haha, yes thats why it needs foreign people to create pieces of without whose, i would've never heard about your neglected poor country :P

  • Wat kind of racist bastard are YOU?!

    Just because you dont like Rihanna or 50 Cent doesnt mean you have to

    insilt the whole damn race.

    You take your 'nigger scum' and stick it up your ass,

    you racist son of a bitch!

    I'm black, and guess what.

    I like Rihanna AND Celtic Women.

    You Fucktard.

  • so much power .....!!!!!

  • P.S. This was filmed as part of Michael Flatley's show and he always has pretty funky photography...Also, these violins are electric so the sound would last a couple seconds after they stop playing, just like with an electric guitar.

  • I don't believe this performance was fake. I saw Máiréad Nesbitt (the one with the longer hair) live with Celtic Woman and she really is this amazing!

  • Я давно хотел послушать такую музыку.Жизнь только начинается после таких концертов!

  • they are so HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOT
