Hilary O'Neill "QUIET LAND OF ERIN"

The words to this beautiful song come from a Gaelic poem by Antrim poet MacAmbrose written during his enforced exile in Scotland, and longing for his native Ireland. More info: http://www.hilaryoneill.com

Thanks.

Valid comments.

I will encourage Hilary to let me post some live performances.

Very nice. But the original by Mary O'hara is exquisite.

@budanasal, I wanted to write the same!But since you wrote it before me....I don't know this singer(I am not Irish)but found the song that is 100% Mary O 'Hara's and I am very used to her splendid version.Still I like to hear different versions.This video though doesn't appeal to me,due to the overacting of the singer,although her voice is certainly not bad.Further I hear an orchestra,but don't see it.Playbacking indeed is painful.You are quite right that there is nothing to laugh about!

do you know how to sing? its not her impressions but just a technique do manage that performance... just look at operasingers...;)
