I really love Hayley Westenra and the Celtic Women, their voices are great and they are so beautiful, but I really hate this song (which is absolutly not celtic), written by Charles Trenet (I really dislike this singer).
@LEGOFFMARTINEAU...First of all, it has never been said that Celtic Woman would only sing Celtic or Irish music....Second this song was not written by Charles Trenet..Trenet had composed "La Mer" (which means "The Sea") with French lyrics totally different and unrelated to the English language version that Jack Lawrence composed.
I´ve never listen to Celtic Woman,its not my kind of music.But I went for Hayley (saw her on the Rugby WorldCup Final) to hear her sing.And Boom there was Meav! She left me speechless.Her voice is so smooth and warm...was it Breathtaking,Lovely,Wonderful.? It was something beyond that.
I would give anything to be able to have the opportunity to learn under their wing...I love their music so much..it inspires to sing more and more, practicing until can practice no more. Their music is so amazing. I hope I get to meet these women some day~ <3
@awesomekoolaid1 "Not as good as on real live TV??/" Baloney! They sound even better live than they do in these recorded concert performances. No lip-syncing here; just a bunch of really talented performers doing their thing.

@beyondthehorizon99 Yea Damian did this song on TGP but Bobby Darrin is hte original singer. It's a song that's gone through a lot of artists but most of hte versions I've heard are pretty nice.
@TheFergme Bobby Darin probably listened to this song on the radio when he was a boy. A lot of the big band orchestras of the 40s recorded it with various singers.
when i here this sing, it's like my heart is burning inside me and sometimes i'll even tear up. this has got to be one of the most moving songs I've ever heard

@fotonetka...Not really..."Beyond the Sea" is a 1946 contemporary pop song with music taken from the song "La Mer" by Charles Trenet. Trenet had composed "La Mer" (which means "The Sea") with French lyrics totally different and unrelated to the English language version that Jack Lawrence composed.
Absolutely love this song, reminds me of the seemingly endless wait I had to go through untill I was able to leave my native UK and be with my love in the US.
The most beautiful voices that I have heard in such a long time. I would love to see them in person. I can't see why anyone would not like their singing. Unless all they like is hard rock?. I for one enjoy the singing.
Stop with the stupid little fights just cause you dont like what some people say doesnt mean you have to bash them get over yourself!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That's a good point. And I suppose that I'm not really being fair to the singers; after all, they aren't *bad*, and I've not heard anything else by them. Still, it's hard not to worry about a particular, more popular cover of a song pushing the the other covers into obscurity. Look at what the chordettes did to "Mr. Sandman" as compared to the more original version by the mills brothers.
@jinglefghi...Chloe is the "girl" with the very long blonde hair. If you pause at :30 Chloe is the one on the right...She is the youngest member of the group, she was 17 when this performance was recorded on July of 2006...
I don't think Chloe is the prettiest, just because my tastes lean more towards Lisa Kelly (shame that she's married, oh well! Good for her), Hayley Westenra and the Pixie Mairead Nesbitt. But Chloe IS (they all are!), talented, and I LOVE her long hair. IF, and this is a BIG IF, Chloe is a 'big girl' it is not because of fat: just look at her! It is because of build. But she carries it well, and her personality shines through and overpowers everything Else.
okay, every one is way to uptight about the weight, expressing any reference to it shows your way to uncomfortable with your own (both the people who are saying one of the singers are overweight and the people jumping to her defense.)
what i wanted to say before i saw 50 comments arguing about weight is it's odd they're doing this song because they typically do celtic songs and this song is originally french ("la mer")
@TheLionVulture They do songs from all countries. I was looking at the songs on the sidebar links to the right and counted 6 different countries. Even their Celtic songs are arranged to fit US tastes.
that is absolutely true, but most of there songs are gaelic in origin and the ones they do from other countries tend to use the language it was written in, it's just an oddity. too be fair, i don't know many people who listen to french , music, i tend to enjoy gaelic french italian and some spanish so i recognize songs that come out in america when they're just remakes while every one else raves about how awesome and unique it is. lol. * see next comment
i just think that doing it in original french would have fit they're style, voices and avoided alot of the people saying that it's not as good as the 'original' *cough*remake*cough*
@TheLionVulture Absolutely, I agree 100%. La Mer would have have been a perfect song for them when they had this group. They sing Italian songs well, so I doubt the French would be a problem. And, as you said, it would end the silly references to "the remake".
@TripBoomLikeThat exactly, and they normally perform songs better than anyone else i hear, with the exception of Níl Sé'n Lá which to be fair it's phenomenal, but i had a friend sing that one in the perfect setting for that + she was off the boat irish and an amazing singer, so accent everything was perfect... but that was a freak situation. they're still the best.
@TripBoomLikeThat...I think your right...they just sang a verse of "You Raise Me Up" in Japenese when they were there promoting the upcoming Japanese tour..
@gaeilge1O1 They do seem, to be able to sing anything don't they. Also, I noticed that Lisa Lambe spoke German very well, maybe there will be some German songs in the future. They really sound great in the new music on Youtube.
@TripBoomLikeThat...If someone uploads anything from one of the German performances, I am sure you'll hear them singing in German.....I know they did, it's just a matter of someone uploading it...
@TripBoomLikeThat.....Yup it has made it to You Tube...watch?v=oKhB785GJ5s It's the version they did for the promotional "trailer" that have been airing on German TV...But it's the same arrangement that they are doing during the live performances...
@gaeilge1O1 Yep they did! :D I saw them yesterday in Düsseldorf and they performed Over The Rainbow in German. It was wonderfull. I'll see them again in the Netherlands on 27 September, can't wait! :D
@imwithstupid243 Yep! :D They'll be in the Vredenburg Leidsche Rijn Theater in Utrecht. But in case you don't know, you won't be seeing this line-up. The current members are Lisa Kelly, Máiréad Nesbitt, Chloë Agnew from this group, joined by Lisa Lambe the newest member. Doesn't matter, they're still incredible! :D
@TheLionVulture...Trenet had composed "La Mer" (which means "The Sea") with French lyrics totally different and unrelated to the English language version that Lawrence composed. Trenet's French version was an homage and ode to the changing moods of the sea, while Lawrence, by just adding one word "Beyond" to the title, gave him the start whereby he made the song into one of a lover pining for a lost love.
@TheLionVulture.....You are 100% correct about the weight thing.....it's sad that everyone brings it up, but I will defend Chloe as long as people make remarks about her weight...
Part 2...Celtic Woman came together as a result of PBS wanting to air a show with "Irish" singers. So we get Celtic Woman, Lisa Kelly in an interview said "No one ever said that Celtic Woman would only sing traditional "Irish/Celtic" songs." It's geared largely towards the American audience.
these are all beautiful talented women...it is the narrow thinking that all performers must fit a certain body type that makes us lose the opportunity to hear truely angelic voices. I'd much rather hear talent and gift then see mediocrity. I applaud all of these women for their love of music and their graceful performances
I had the pleasure ,and I do mean pleasure, of seeing Celtic Woman at Radio City Music Hall,New York.To be there along with the ambiance that is Radio City is pure magic.
Stunning,.Cannot say anymore because there are no words.
I like how they sing, but it's a SWINGING song. It's not meant to be sung slow by a quadret of women, especially not to the background of new age synth.
Don't get me wrong; If they sang something original, I might like them, but they're simply ruining a classic.
@Fallout3MK2 The genre of this song is "Big Band" not jazz. Bobby Darin sang it as a jazz song, but it had been around since the 40's, and even longer as the french song La Mer. There is just no set way to perform pop songs.
Celtic Woman does a lot of songs written by their musical director and members of the group.
Also, although there are no "Right" ways to perform a pop song, there are many wrong ways. A hip-hop version of "Lazy river", for example, would be wrong, no matter how you tried to put it.

That's a good point. And I suppose that I'm not really being fair to the singers; after all, they aren't *bad*, and I've not heard anything else by them. Still, it's hard not to worry about a particular, more popular cover of a song pushing the the other covers into obscurity. Look at what the chordettes did to "Mr. Sandman" as compared to the more original version by the mills brothers.

@jinglefghi...Chloe is the "girl" with the very long blonde hair. If you pause at :30 Chloe is the one on the right...She is the youngest member of the group, she was 17 when this performance was recorded on July of 2006...

I don't think Chloe is the prettiest, just because my tastes lean more towards Lisa Kelly (shame that she's married, oh well! Good for her), Hayley Westenra and the Pixie Mairead Nesbitt. But Chloe IS (they all are!), talented, and I LOVE her long hair. IF, and this is a BIG IF, Chloe is a 'big girl' it is not because of fat: just look at her! It is because of build. But she carries it well, and her personality shines through and overpowers everything Else.

Chloe is the prettiest amongst these ladies that is for sure. But they all have amazing voices, love to hear them sing.

okay, every one is way to uptight about the weight, expressing any reference to it shows your way to uncomfortable with your own (both the people who are saying one of the singers are overweight and the people jumping to her defense.)
what i wanted to say before i saw 50 comments arguing about weight is it's odd they're doing this song because they typically do celtic songs and this song is originally french ("la mer")
TheLionVulture 7 months ago
@TheLionVulture They do songs from all countries. I was looking at the songs on the sidebar links to the right and counted 6 different countries. Even their Celtic songs are arranged to fit US tastes.
"Celtic Woman" describes them, not their music.

@TripBoomLikeThat
that is absolutely true, but most of there songs are gaelic in origin and the ones they do from other countries tend to use the language it was written in, it's just an oddity. too be fair, i don't know many people who listen to french , music, i tend to enjoy gaelic french italian and some spanish so i recognize songs that come out in america when they're just remakes while every one else raves about how awesome and unique it is. lol. * see next comment

@TripBoomLikeThat
i just think that doing it in original french would have fit they're style, voices and avoided alot of the people saying that it's not as good as the 'original' *cough*remake*cough*
TheLionVulture 7 months ago
@TheLionVulture Absolutely, I agree 100%. La Mer would have have been a perfect song for them when they had this group. They sing Italian songs well, so I doubt the French would be a problem. And, as you said, it would end the silly references to "the remake".
Great comment.
TripBoomLikeThat 7 months ago
@TripBoomLikeThat exactly, and they normally perform songs better than anyone else i hear, with the exception of Níl Sé'n Lá which to be fair it's phenomenal, but i had a friend sing that one in the perfect setting for that + she was off the boat irish and an amazing singer, so accent everything was perfect... but that was a freak situation. they're still the best.

@gaeilge1O1 They do seem, to be able to sing anything don't they. Also, I noticed that Lisa Lambe spoke German very well, maybe there will be some German songs in the future. They really sound great in the new music on Youtube.

@TheLionVulture...Trenet had composed "La Mer" (which means "The Sea") with French lyrics totally different and unrelated to the English language version that Lawrence composed. Trenet's French version was an homage and ode to the changing moods of the sea, while Lawrence, by just adding one word "Beyond" to the title, gave him the start whereby he made the song into one of a lover pining for a lost love.
gaeilge1O1 7 months ago
@TheLionVulture.....You are 100% correct about the weight thing.....it's sad that everyone brings it up, but I will defend Chloe as long as people make remarks about her weight...
Part 2...Celtic Woman came together as a result of PBS wanting to air a show with "Irish" singers. So we get Celtic Woman, Lisa Kelly in an interview said "No one ever said that Celtic Woman would only sing traditional "Irish/Celtic" songs." It's geared largely towards the American audience.

these are all beautiful talented women...it is the narrow thinking that all performers must fit a certain body type that makes us lose the opportunity to hear truely angelic voices.

I like how they sing, but it's a SWINGING song. It's not meant to be sung slow by a quadret of women, especially not to the background of new age synth.
Don't get me wrong; If they sang something original, I might like them, but they're simply ruining a classic.
Fallout3MK2 9 months ago
@Fallout3MK2 The genre of this song is "Big Band" not jazz. Bobby Darin sang it as a jazz song, but it had been around since the 40's, and even longer as the french song La Mer. There is just no set way to perform pop songs.
Celtic Woman does a lot of songs written by their musical director and members of the group.
IntoTheMystical 9 months ago
@IntoTheMystical
True, but "Swing" has no real definition, at least not in wide use. It can refer to jazz, big band, or many other similar styles.
Stupidly, I hadn't realized that this and La Mer were one and the same. Thanks!
I'll poke around, see if I can't find an original song. Are there any you happen to like?
Fallout3MK2 9 months ago
@IntoTheMystical
Also, although there are no "Right" ways to perform a pop song, there are many wrong ways. A hip-hop version of "Lazy river", for example, would be wrong, no matter how you tried to put it.
