    Eimear Quinns voice has a child like innocence and this what makes her version of this song work. Celtic Women are excellent performers. How ever there is difference in the frequency when listening as well as watching both singers perform. Eimear Quinn version of this song is The Voice of childlike innocence that lives within us all.

    This song represents to me 'My Ireland' the land I grew up in and was proud to be a part of. Naive child I was. This is unfortunately is a far cry from today both in the shite they are putting in for the eurovision every year now and also how this land has become, Unfortunately there doesn't seem to be any more mythical mystical Ireland. Its all gone to hell. probably never to return. Well done Eimear in 96, and thanks for the wonderful memories, your song always brings me to happy times

    She's meant to embody to country, she is to be interpreted as "the voice" who could bring the country peace (1996 - during the Northern Ireland troubles)- it relates back to the feminine association of nationalism, really powerful.

That's soo sad, cuz THIS is waaay better then today's esc. People should know about this.... the moment when she sings the first tone, it's just amazing... and the voice is just too beautiful.

    @Moistcraictical 13 років тому +3

    I love this version. It's modest and has a better essence to it. Celtic Women's version is far too grandiose. We deserved first place and the people who were moaning about us winning were just pissed off because not only were we the country to win the most in the 90's but we've won it seven times, the most times anyone has ever won it.

  • @luckiegit
    @luckiegit 17 років тому

    Eimear has been doing choral singing since she was 4yrs & has been formally trained. She was with the celtic chamber quire anuna. brendan Graham who wrote this found her while singing in st patricks cath in Dublin. she needed to change the way she sings to perform this song so its not quite her element. She writes,sings & performs on several albums..you should hear her voice on "through the lens of a tear" its like heven.

    Uhm.. no. Look at Germany who won with Lena in 2010 ! It prooves that any country can still win with a sufficent strong song & performance.
    Reason Ireland is placing so bad lately is because they never send these kind of new agey/folk masterpieces anymore.

    i heard this song by eimear quinn the first time on some CD and it sounded much better there.
    she sounds a little hoarse here, maybe she had a cold or just a dry throat and had to fight to get any sound out of her at all.
    she has a very beautiful voice, this song is one of the most beautiful I've ever heard and although this life performance may not have been her best, the song is still awesome and the CD recording is as well.
    (i think it was something with baroque in it)
