This song tells the story of a sailor who is deeply in love and desperate to get back to his woman. He spins a tale of his trials at sea, with his desperation woven into every drumbeat. This is not a true love song, but more a song of perseverance, passion, and determination.
Kolomyjka
Переглядів 5127 років тому
This is an instrumental piece written by our own Dave Ervin, with influences from a tune called "Kolomyiaka." A Kolomyiaka is an Ukrainian folk dance often found at festivals, certain holidays and even weddings. In this piece, the first section conjures images of a Gypsy march, while the second transitions to a full-throttle Celtic rock explosion!
Witch of the Westmoreland

Has there ever been a more perfectly epic tale? A mortally wounded knight must seek a magical witch, as she's the only one who could ever save him. He takes with him on his journey a hawk, a hound, and a horse to aid him on his noble quest. They face great trials and tribulations to reach the women - a perfect recipe for a fantastic folk song. Originally written by Archie Fischer, and reimagine...
Shepherd Lad
Переглядів 7267 років тому
On the surface, this piece depicts a light-hearted exchange between a fair maid swimming in a nearby river and the Shepherd Lad who finds her there, "in the clothes that she was born in." however, the song's true meaning is discovered later on, when this well-intentioned lad escorts her home and finds her less than willing to invite him in. This song exemplifies the maiden's wish to live life o...
With or Without You
Переглядів 4887 років тому
www.theselkiegirls.com The Selkie Girls are huge fans of U2. With or Without You was written in 1986 and released on the Joshua Tree album. The real meaning of this song has been debated by critics and fans since its release, but perhaps it's better to remain ambiguous, allowing for each listener to form his or her own conclusions.

Love this version!
This version sucks. Delete this crap.
Greetings from Ireland. A fantastic version of that song. On a par with Mary Blacks version. I see you haven't updated your channel for three years. Are you still playing?
Great sound!
Really fine version of this wondrous song with fine harmony
Beautiful, driving my 86 year old mom over a mountain, listening to the selkie girls amazing
Love the Selkie Girls - discovered them in Austin back then. When are you coming back?!!
Beautiful 👏👏 What a performance 😯😳
I thought 💭 that after fem. nouns adjectives change because of lenition, so donn should be dhonn. Am I right?
👏👏👏👏👏
👏👏👏👏👏😊👌
👏👏👏👏👏
We need more Irish here. Ireland is being replaced already by those in power who hate you and giving everything to Africans and middle eastern people. Come my brothers and sisters. 40 million of us need you here. Let those who keep you fighting and poor keep the suckling pigs from far away. We need you here more than ever
Great voice but wonder why the words were changed from lamentation to sad narration. Also musket to gun, coming to going etc Almost like it has been modernised for those with a limited vocabulary. Preferred the original words which David Kincaid does very well.
🥰 When are you coming back to McKinney?
In 2022 From Brazil!!!
Beautiful I also like it sung by Beautiful Dickson she does a faster version of it
My heart just froze over, then melted with a wave of melancholy
How beautiful! Great job everyone!
Россияне, выходим на митинги, на Украине умирают дети и мирные жители а мы боимся ареста и штрафа?
Why you playing a Scottish song stands Irish festival
Simply amazing!
I love this band they don’t get enough credit for their talents !!!
I cried like a toddler
I literally teared up at this performance. Thank you for bringing this song to the world.
I feel Irish music is the purest form of music on earth right now. All other forms of music have been heavily influenced by commercial music over time
From all western music, maybe. As i love the Irish folk music as much as you, i think you mistake western mainstream with all the world has to offer. Try Mongolian throat singing, or African or Brasilian native music if you are talking about the purest this world has to offer.
Love you guys. 🎶👏🏻🎶👏🏻💕
Excellent!!! Let it rip girl !! Great voice. Many thanks!!!
I aint even irish an i felt this so deep!
like i've said before, you all are criminally undersubbed
This is grossly undersubbed to
Very nice job. (I don't understand why anybody would downvote this song).
Thank you.
2021, America is cursed.
The rich yankee man still runs the country. Sold they belongs back in ireland an came here expecting to make fortune but ended up fighting another mans war. So touching this is so deep if you think about it still.
@@andriademzik755 did you know, all the US presidents are related to king John of England whom signed the Magna carta in 1215? All except one, the 8th president Martin van buren how was dutch. Funny it's not Obama huh lol. America hasn't even left the rule of a single family, so did America ever exist? This is on of my favorite songs, I like Linda thompsons version best but they a great job
@@oneangrygoy it was the start of human rights a big building block it was effectively dead but inspired liberties all over the world. Magna carta.
Its cursed by those who try and dismantle it from the inside. It could be squashed quite fast. Lifelong Political Parasites, so corrupt if they retire, they run the Risk of being even more exposed then they are at this minute. I'm intrigued with your Theory, can you explain how George Washington was related to the King, because I know far more about his family then he ever did.
Hey angry one..go find a cucumber patch and gimme some knee squats ok?......k?
Love this band !!!
