[feckineejit]

guitar out of tune AND I DON'T CARE!

[jockseery]

@feckineejit it's just downtuned.

[Cainus44]

@feckineejit I think it's intentional.

[koolkool3o5]

to own this album would be like owning a piece of old celtic art and one day i will have it to show its beauty to my kids and grand kids.

[bababababa28]

[celtic4ever18]

the english are  mostly germanic

[pfk859]

@celtic4ever18 Hence why celtic fans call rangers huns

[LoneHike]

The ancient Gods will never die, until the people that birthed them die.

I speak Lugh's name often, and Odin's. Sometimes even the Dagda.

[kozagong]

@LoneHike May Svantevit bless you :)

[DavidTaylorRocks]

the welsh are brythonic, descended of the ancient britons of britain, or as called by the romans " the isles of tin "

[werwolf247]

taugt mir :D

[phaedruslive]

my point was that, in all reality how could the irish have been celts if the romans had no knowlege of them. hybernia is a seperate isle from brittania. and the danes settled in england exclusivly. call me pregidous, but i believe the modern irish are simply trying to take credit and borrow cultural elements from the old gaelic and woaden-welsh.

[flameboy44]

I don't think people who've been speaking Gaelic for generations are trying to borrow anything. Personnaly I'm Britton (from small Brittanny) and we're working on celtic rebirth, but like the irish on established cultural background (use of Biniou Koz, as the Irish use Uilhean pipes etc...) Nothing artificial there.

[phaedruslive]

those aren't the people i take issue with. its the folk who've adopted gaelic traits and rebranded them as irish that bother me.

[flameboy44]

(I'm having problems with the term gaelic here, it's was originally used to define gaulish peole by Romans, then extended to all celtic people, I prefer to use the term celtic) Irish people are of Celtic origin aren't they? Even before the Scots invaded the Islands...

[phaedruslive]

its the highland gaelic im reffering to aka scotts. im sure you already knew that though.

[GNOME919productions]

@flameboy44 The Romans called the Gaulish people Gallic Gael is from a Welsh word Goidel which is what the welsh reffered to the Irish as in the early dark ages, the word just evolved into the modern word Gael, any resemblance to Gallic is coincedence.

[flameboy44]

How come we speak about gaelic welsh than?

[kingsoldierface]

There's no such thing as Gaelic welsh ..Gaelic is a separate branch of Celtic languages all together..

[flameboy44]

...wel maybe ok, but in common language people speak about gaelic welsh...could you tell me where you heard/read that, i'd like to check it out. thanks

[perstyr]

Amusingly the term Celt wasn't used before the 18th or 19th century. True fact.

[DavidTaylorRocks]

@perstyr Keltoi - greek word meaning people of darkness or foreigners. hence kelt

[seamuspowers]

@perstyr Actually it was, the Romans and Greek first used the Term 'Kelt' and 'Teuton' to describe people living on either side of the rhine river in gaul and germania.

[ScaveoTheSanguine]

@phaedruslive its true that the Danes settled exclusively in England but the Norwegians settled in Ireland, and I think that Ireland actually was influencing Scotland, Ireland invented the whiskey that Scotland is famous for, although admittedly this happened a good deal of time later so it might be irrelevant

[phaedruslive]

@ScaveoTheSanguine if you look the raiding that was done in those days you'll see that the scots are actually original irish (old irish) but reffered to themselves as scots. strangely enough though, they inhabited ireland. i know its sounds crazy but at some point there was a migration of sorts. the gaels inhabited the highlands and left hybernia behind entirely, the land there was later occupied by saxony and pictish peoples.

[Brampiescampie]

@thepeterlong then you love your nationality.... otherwise you would hate your culture and mythology too

[orfeas8]

nice folk song and nice album cover, too..

[phaedruslive]

theirs a huge disconnect between peoples understanding of ancient brittain and what actually happened. the term celt was coined by romans and was initially named after coastal clans in western europe. the image that comes to mind when a guy says celt is a large half-naked warrior. thats because romans landed on brittania, not hybernia as ireland was then known. the term was intended for gael's or scots if you prefer. this seems to be a fact many people ignore because their irish instead of scott

[RagingBull2A]

the celts settled all nowadays europe.....not only coastal clans....the Gauls were Celts....p.ex.......

[phaedruslive]

@RagingBull2A the term celt was a roman one, used to generalize all barbarian societies.

[Brampiescampie]

@phaedruslive and the word barbarian comes from the greek 'barbaros' wich means 'nongreek'

[orfeas8]

and the Helveti were Celts, they settled nowadays Switzerland.

[DiamondCutter19]

The Vindelics,too ...

[flameboy44]

The Aulercs, settled near Le Mans in Gaul.

The Venets, the Roazhon, The Namnets, there's a no ending list

[dwid1984]

read the genetic history of the brittish isles

[RagingBull2A]

i meant the celts in general,not particulary the british ones...:p

[seamuspowers]

@dwid1984 that book was terrible, I love how the author contradicted half the things he said. One line 'the British and Irish are not celts, they are Basques, and the Basques are not Celts, however the English are more Celtic than Anglo-Saxon', he said some stupid line like that. Its as if he actually believed there is DNA that says celtic. R1A or R1B I forget is celtic, and one is slavic. However, he failed to mention any of that, and the fact its all throughout western Europe.

[Kriegsarschmann]

The only reason why I'd pirate this is to add it to my MP3 collection. The CD is going on my shelf. :)

[AtomicMick]

An Daghda would be proud

[CraobhRuadh]

haha dagda makes me laugh

[AtomicMick]

do you know what an daghda is?

[CraobhRuadh]

celtic god, took nuada's place after he lost his arm, since the king of the gods had to be perfect. had a pot that never ran out of food, he had two pigs, one that was always cooking and one that fought i think? anyway he kicked ass with his club.

[AtomicMick]

well,... you know a fuck load more about him than I learned in a year of 1st year history. I only really did the first comment for a joke though

[CraobhRuadh]

haha i had to research it myself, dont get taught anything interesting in history class where i come from.

[AtomicMick]

kinda guessed that! ha ha :)

where do ya come from?

I'm from Galway meself

[CraobhRuadh]

new zealand. schools try their best to make europeans ashamed of their history by only teaching us the bad things they done. really sucks

[AtomicMick]

oh right,are you Irish though, because thats an Irish username even though I have no clue as to what it means, I'm fairly bad at Irish but make up for it on the tinwhistle

[CraobhRuadh]

your right about the user name, its red branch, as in the red branch knights of ulster. i'm not actually irish though. i was just interested in their culture for a while, especially the stories of cuchullain

[AtomicMick]

I should have known that, I'm shamefully bad at Irish. Still though, I love saying "Tiocfaidh ár lá"

[Illidanee]

Or they know something...:P

[Earthboundwhisper]

Nuada eventualy won the throne back tho when he was forged a silver arm by this brother. Then he eventually gave the throne to Lug the one everyone remembers
