I am a very long time folk music listener however, this song is an exception and has had a special place for me during the past four years after I listened your version. Thank you Siobhan for interpreting the lyrics so well . The band is outstanding mastering all their instruments. Thank you all.
This stopped me in my tracks the first time I heard it. If there is a more beautiful voice and version of this song, I'm yet to hear. Thanks Siobhan. This song deserves to be a national treasure!!!
This is wonderful! In my opinion, the sweetest and most melodious voice in the Scottish folk scene. And what a bunch of talented musicians (huge fan of Megan Henderson).
I am blown away. Siobhan can do no wrong, it seems. Thank you...you reaffirm,for me, the powerful beauty of song. In your hands may it always bring you Love,Light and good things.
So a wee share... Not just in singing but all sorts of human ways .. I used sing May Morning Dew after learning it from one of our greats (Robbie McMahon of spancil hill). After he arrived to his heavenly reward, I just let it slip away.. still feel like I'm processing his goin away from the earthly plane.. he was my biggest singing mentor and a beautiful friend. Anyway just lastnight (only 7 years later .. 🙄), didn't I have a lash at it when me eyes fell on the words +chords of it in me ould songbook.. I guess 7 yrs is the right time to have let the sting come out of death and begin to allow love back in to life.. maybe Anyway the ease and grace of the song returned with no trouble at all .. I thought There is a prince of a song; try anyone to make a hames of it , but it's a song that just *can't* go wrong if one chooses to sing it. But cheeky me decided to see what else covers of it sounded like these days.. This cover here by Siobhán Miller of course popped up. Go raibh míle maith agat to my crappy internet reception, but I wasn't able to load the video for hours... And tonight (I mean next morning, since tis after midnight now), I finally gets to hear and see. I'm nearly afraid to look at the other vids now. That is some TASTY ceol. Tapaidh leat Siobhán Miller, agus do chuid cairde. Thanks Siobhán and friends . A new fan in the west of Éiriu ☘️ Hope to catch ye live sometime in the not too distant future. Ádh mór ort. Good luck xo
a voice as smooth as silk that glows like the morning You sing of 🤔🤔🤔 such a beautiful arrangement and a true pleasure to have ‘discovered’ (via KD and ‘the gang’), i want to write ‘poetry’ hearing such dulcet tones but can only come up with one word #sublime 🙌🙌🙌 and the (build up to the) violin note at 02:13 absolutely floors me 🤯🤯🤯 😆😆😆 🙌🙌🙌
Beautiful air. You managed to take it to a higher level. The result is simply magnificent, and in my opinion, this version of yours is the most beautiful ever heard. Thank you.

Brilliant!!!!!
Beautiful!
So dark yet so beautiful! Love it! Praise from a Canadian Scot ;)
Nice playing 👍
So beautiful. Gentle & sweet but with fleeting moments of pain. Had to listen to Dolores Keane version to compare. Impossible to choose.
Fabelous voice so moving love it
Beautiful ❤

along with Davy Spillane there are no better versions of this beautiful tune!
I soared away through the one word portal of blue....
Who is the fiddler? She's amazing
