  • Muireann Nic Amhlaoibh & Ger O Donnell This was incredible. I've been a fan of Muireann for the longest time and there she is in my house singing a song! This one is pretty special and that instrument she has there is a shruti box.

    Wow! Muireann's voice has the pure spirit of Irish lore.

    UA-cam is great. I discovered Muireann about a year ago. I discovered Ger recently through Petersen Family clips. Then I find them both singing a duet together! How great is that! They both have extraordinary talent. Ger’s voice has a resonance that is very rare, which I enjoy listening to. Thank you!

      Yes! I also found out about Ger through the Petersens! This is an amazing rendition. I love this song and first heard it on a CD from Dun an Doras (a Czech group that played Celtic music).

    I'm such a fan of Dick Gaughan's version of this song that it was difficult at first to be receptive to anyone else's version. However, this is sublime, lovely natural voices, the arrangement, the excellent guitar work. True musicianship. Bravo

    The snows, they melt the soonest when the winds begin to sing
    And the corn, it ripens fastest when the frosts are settlin' in
    And when a young man tells me that my face he'll soon forget
    Before we part, I'll wage a crown he's fain to follow it yet
    The snows, they melt the soonest when the winds begin to sing
    The swallows fly without a thought as long as it is spring
    But when spring goes and winter blows, my love, you'll soon be fain
    For all your pride to follow me across the raging main
    The snows, they melt the soonest when the winds begin to sing
    And the bee that flew when summer shone, in winter cannot sting
    And I've seen a young man's anger melt between the night and morn
    So it's surely not a harder thing to melt a young man's scorn
    So don't you bid me farewell, hear, no farewell I'll receive
    For you will lie with me, my love, then kiss and take your leave
    And I'll wait here 'til the moorcock calls, and the martin takes the wing
    For the snows, they melt the soonest when the winds begin to sing

    My heart, it melts the soonest when I listen to you two... I haven't heard such a beautiful rendition/duet in a long time... I'm learning this for my own trad singing "session" ASAP!

    Mrs. Nic Amhlaoibh said in an interview that she learned to let the songs she sings inhabit her. I hear that in this rendition, with which I am very taken. I find her voice very pleasant (as in high and full at the same time, and telling of the humanness of the singer) as I let it inhabit me while I am listening.
