Iarla actually was part of a band called the afro celtic sound system in the 1990's that fused hip-hop techno with irish music so Iarla had no problem with hip hop or dance music. I seen them myself and they were awsome. When Iarla performed you could hear a pin drop.

Beautiful thanks for posting it. I read that in sean nos singing in old times the singers held one hand with someone to show compassion and presence if the song was one of great grief and sorrow like this one. Like compassion suffering together that is.

O'Lionaird has the most trained voice of this gathering. He sings the closest thing to classic Irish music there is: sean nos.

effortlessly, nice, got chills. Sorry for my ignorance, which language is this? it is Irish, but how do you call it? It is a good song to listen now when in mourning in death of my peoples Patriarch, his hollyness mr Pavle. Thank you, Lanamaid! Éireann go Brách

It's Gaelic, one form of it. Gaelic is the original language of Ireland, but there are
variants of it, depending on where you are.

Vyechnaya pamyat (Eternal memory). I had not heard till just now. Since you are an Orthodox brother or sister, please pray for the Church in America - we are struggling over here to develop the Orthodox Church to provide our faithful with the means to reach our beloved Christ.

Pomoz' Bog! Salute to all brethren and sisters in Christ and the others with good will. I am a member of Serbian Ortodoz Church. All the best with developing your Church, but I do not know whether there is American Ortodox Church. Mostly they are autokefal (selfgoverning) and sister-churches and confessing singe nations. best wishes!

Great job by Iarla O'Lionaird here. Alan McDonald is so emotional that he needs a hand to hold; and Mary Black is there.
