She is the voice of ireland. All our struggle. Sang with love heart and passion. Sinead u are a legend ur voice is a god given gift. So so proud ot you
Do not weep for not being Irish. The women of Ireland have long shown us the way forward. Have long carried the suffering and the men, the heroes, have long been in awe of their female comrades. There is romance, true, but there is a spirit deep down, like a rod of steel that runs through every Irish woman I have ever met. If only I had their steel I would be a better man than am, hero an all that I are.
Our dearest Sinead. You'll be always missed your music will live on. She fought demons most of her life and fought for the underdog throughout her life. Her beauty, wisdom, intelligence, voice filled Our hearts forever. Our bravest irish woman. Rest in peace ❤❤❤
Such a beautiful rendition of this song. Sinaed,, had the voice of an angel, and an honest and true heart, she was the voice of lreland, and will be sorely missed Rip 🙏 lrish Angel, you'll never be forgotten❤☘️.........
A marvelous poem sung by a divine voice in a minimal musical arrangement! Pure gold! Thank you Sinead, thank you polly for sharing this gem! Love from Greece!
I can't believe this. I know the general meaning of this song, and the first time I listened to it was in Barry Lyndon. But Sinéad... I don't really know what the words mean, but she made me drop some tears. She sings to the heart, and I love your true language, Irish People. I find that we, the spanish and the irish are alike in many aspects. Music is one. ;)
She's mentally ill, Dear Luis, and great as God is, he does not take something from you without giving you something. Thus, in this woman's voice is the reflection of the totality of existence and, somehow, against all odds, a reasonable projection of that. This performance defies reasonable expectations. Fortunately, those her were accompanying her not only understood what is in this song, they recognized how they had to support her at it.
Yes we are most definitely alike, when I am in Spain I sometimes feel like I could be in an Irish setting except the people are dark skinned and speaking a language unfamiliar to me but I feel something that always reminds me of home....I love the Spanish people
@JobHuntingAbroad Some of my girlish ancestors fled the brutal occupation of the english and escaped to Spain They became the Seville Orange growers, our name O' Neiil from high the Great who rules all of the north of Eire before the English✋️
I always loved this song with Sinead! I play it on my keyboard every day. This version is so great and touches my heart, can't hold my tears back! RIP Sinead ❤🙏
I don't think I've heard anything as truly beautiful as this! Sinead what makes you so resistant to accepting yourself! iYou are immensely talented and have touched so many of our faceless souls with your gift. I thank you and pray you may find peace now on this mortal coil❤
Such incomparable beauty from a much and cruelly wronged woman. She spoke truth, but most of us would not listen. She asked for justice, and we answered with ridicule and derision. I will remember and honor your pain and virtue, lovely Sinaed, as I live with my shame.
Maybe the most beautiful song, sung by maybe the most beautiful voice & intonation. If this doesn't bring you that feeling of cold electric shower (shivers), I don't know what would.
Dedicated to my mom, Elizabeth Gilroy Johnston and her mom, my nana, Elizabeth Hickey Gilroy--both born in New York, but of 100% Irish descent, and it's amazing how many Irish women I've known, particularly the older ones, remind me of them. Thank you and bless you always.
La voce di un angelo....l'ho sentita e risentita cantata da tante persone...nessuno come lei...spiace molto per le sue condizioni di salute e per il lutto del figlio ...nessuno merita tanto dolore...tutti dovrebbero sentire questa dolce melodia e ringraziarla per averla cantata soprattutto dovrebbe inchinarsi a tanta bellezza canora chi l'ha derisa nella sua debolezza nella sua fragilità...
A big thank you to the women of Ireland, or at least to those of Cork city. You greeted me an overgrown child and made a man out of me, giving me true happiness. And that city... oh, that city is and forever will remain for me paradise on earth! Can you feel homesick while at home? For that's how I feel now,,,
Sinead virtually destroyed her career by speaking out against abuse within Catholic Church. At the time. she was ridiculed, reviled and dismissed as some kind of freak. She was proved right in the end. An incredibly brave woman, who sacrificed so much to tell the truth.
I was watching when she did that on live television. I was dumbfounded with respect for her courage; unfortunately, too many others had a problem with it.
I was raped not by one, not by two but by three Roman Catholic priests by the age of 11 and in two different parishes. When my mother spoke out and complained to the cardinal we both were excommunicated. Then one evening I watched as this woman on TV tore up a picture of the man who I had written in a letter begging for a reversal of that excommunication and who denied it on grounds that my original complaint constituted blasphemy. She was the very first person who ever stood up for me outside of my family. Today I remain excommunicated because I refuse to withdraw my accusations against the three priests who raped me. The original cardinal, cardinal Richard Cushing of Boston, stated that making such a complaint constituted blasphemy and said in his original letter to me that the priests in question claimed that I attempted to seduce them. I was ten when it first happened. This is the mindset of the Catholic church. She has been my hero ever since that night almost thirty years ago. If I lived anywhere near her grave there would never be a day it wasn't covered in fresh flowers.
SO perfectly done! Haunting and touching with the lightest movement almost like a balmy breath, lingering fragrance. Thank you for posting this for all of us to hear and cherish!
This is a lovely, soft and lilting rendition of the song. Sinead O'Connor is stunningly beautiful with an heavenly voice. The Kate Bush version is great too. They are both truly gifted and they know how to evoke an emotionally powerful uplifting feeling.
encontré esto a un año de su partida...y nada q decir...aun ahora m sorprende conocer mas de sineid...me hago mas adicto a ella..a su belleza y a su voz...😮
I first heard this in "Barry Lyndon", played by the Chieftains. Sinead's voice adds a truly ethereal dimension to it. Wish I could understand the words. My Grandma spoke Gaelic, but sadly is no more with us.
Hi, mise aris ,there was a contribution by leopolis concerning the genre of this High Classical piece of Irish poetry ,now, it has absolutely nothing to do with Irish Rebel music,however worthy that may be ,Wikipedia just made a hames of the explanation, It really is about the many types of Women in Ireland, in their praise with love ,written in early eighteenth century ,so it is two hundred years old ,still going strong, I do also like Sinead O Connor's version
Un magnifico film..visto diverse volte in DV...il film più Hitchcockiano...tutto londinese...col grande attore inglese indimenticabile Barry Foster ...il personaggio dello psicopatico...e tutto un Cast di magnifici attori inglesi....il film è da vedere dall'inizio alla fine ..e c'è perfino dello humour stile sempre di Hitchcock!!!!
Who wants officiality? I want heart! To hell with officiality, it is arbitrary and false. I love to hear Sinead O'Connor sing...it comes from the heart, it is therefore beautiful and real to me. Joey
This is such a beautiful version of a great song by a magic singer, but who can tell me how I can get hold of this one? It's superb! Thanks for showing us this beauty!
Buen año, compañer@. En mi caso es compañero. No he leído la historia de Frank Ryan, pero investigaré sobre ella. No guardo ninguna simpatía por la iglesia. Yo creo en el hombre, en la naturaleza, en la física o las matemáticas. "¿Por qué lloras?", le preguntó a un hombre que sollozaba en el suelo. "Lloro porque creo en el hombre". Y sin embargo somos capaces de hacer cosas tan bellas como el sonido que nos obsequia Sinéad aquí. Saludos para todos donde quiera que soñéis.
Better a battered career rather than a battered spirit. Not to speak is like (her song for Dolly Parton) a dagger through the heart. She walked tall and carried a big stick. She did not give up. I admire her for that. I loved her voice from the beginning and I will until the end...although, there is no end as the end is only the beginning. Listening to her, I now know why the caged bird sang...and why she chose to be bald.
1 of the greatest tunes this lady of Ireland made and thats better than what she said about me all those long years ago???? From a person who loved the rythmn and lived the life and had the same problems but who has now learned what it was all about and will learn more im sure. Snazz :>) U werent even in the picture 32 or u Dawd haha
I have goosebumps just listening to this. I had no idea Sinead sang this, all I heard was Kate Bush and I must say they're both good but Sinead really gives it a haunting feeling.
Thanks! Took Irish Gaelic over 3 years ago (haven't spoken/read since) and didn't feel like digging out my books to check it. Thought it was wrong...lol Hmm, you're not my old teacher, are you? ;P Cheers!
@emROARS Siobhan (the singer/harpist on the sharbas youtube channel) is Welsh on her father's side and her mother's family are from Galway. This is such a beautiful song and one which I hope Siobhan adds to her repertoire.

Eine starke Frau mit einer Engelsstimme hat uns verlassen aber Ihre Musik und die schönen Momente bleiben.
Danke❤
Ruhe in Frieden.
This, I am sure, is the most beautiful thing I have ever heard. May angels sing you a welcome to the next world.
A marvelous poem sung by a divine voice in a minimal musical arrangement! Pure gold! Thank you Sinead, thank you polly for sharing this gem! Love from Greece!
Maybe the most beautiful song ever. Here sung by one of the most beautiful voices ever ... and the Right voice/singer for the song.

I'm a Spaniard with dark skin from Andalusia.
We're Celtic but the sun tanned our skin

Quelle magnifique chanson chantée par la plus belle des irlandaises , Sinéad je t'aime pour toujours ❤❤❤
Stephanie, Sinead was the first person to stand up to the Roman Catholic Church on our planet against their sex & slavery crimes.😇
I don't think I've heard anything as truly beautiful as this! Sinead what makes you so resistant to accepting yourself! iYou are immensely talented and have touched so many of our faceless souls with your gift. I thank you and pray you may find peace now on this mortal coil❤

Divine performance Sinead! God bless u all! Love from Greece!
like an angel sang a voice on my ears, i couldn't understand a word of it, it seemed the language of angels, the languages of birds to me.
Listen to the kate bush version it gives the words in english in the description
AMAZING. Full of consciousness and poetry, they flow from her soul. Can't stop hear her voice, words flow like a river stream...of purity.
I think this is the most beautiful song Ive ever heard, thank you Sinead
You should hear Kate bush version. This is beautiful too by the way, but nothing compares to Kate’s version
I've listened to several versions of this ,I think this the most beautiful , what a lovely voice
Surreal. Listen the version of Jeff Beck
Try mike Oldfield version the guitar does the singing 😉
I wish I was a fluent Irish speaker.
It truly is a beautiful language.
This is not English. Not at all...
These beautiful words are in IRISH GAELIC, a Celtic language... ❤
Just got reacquainted with this song from the Bob James 3 album. This is a very nice version here by Sinead. a beautiful song for sure.
the hairs stand up on the back of my neck when she sings "she moves through the fair" what a voice!!!
Maybe the most beautiful song, sung by maybe the most beautiful voice & intonation.
If this doesn't bring you that feeling of cold electric shower (shivers), I don't know what would.
+ProNorden Agrarian-Nationalism brings out the tears deep within me , but that's a good thing , peace : ))
@Jean Kennedy you are deaf with no soul

I've just become converted to Sinead! Amazing! It doesn't matter that I cannot understand a word- it's sublime.
La voce di un angelo....l'ho sentita e risentita cantata da tante persone...nessuno come lei...spiace molto per le sue condizioni di salute e per il lutto del figlio ...nessuno merita tanto dolore...tutti dovrebbero sentire questa dolce melodia e ringraziarla per averla cantata soprattutto dovrebbe inchinarsi a tanta bellezza canora chi l'ha derisa nella sua debolezza nella sua fragilità...
You were too good for this world. They see it now. ❤ God bless your beautiful soul Sinead. xxx
Voice of an angel - dont understand a word but it sounds beautiful.
Beautiful and haunting, just like Sinead O'Connor! Also love her vocals on 'Foggy Dew' with The Chieftains.
song from the heart. how wonderful to hear such sounds. how comforting.thank you
Probably the most beautiful rendition of probably the most beautiful song ever.
This song is amazing, irish songs are amazing! Thx for uploading!
A big thank you to the women of Ireland, or at least to those of Cork city. You greeted me an overgrown child and made a man out of me, giving me true happiness.

I was watching when she did that on live television. I was dumbfounded with respect for her courage; unfortunately, too many others had a problem with it.
I always thought it was because she supported the Ira...with the atrocities committed by the English government I cant say shed be wrong if she did.
She was silenced and canceled for speaking truth
I was raped not by one, not by two but by three Roman Catholic priests by the age of 11 and in two different parishes.

WHAT SINEAD CAN'T SING, DO ANYBODY KNOWS? She is just great the best vocalist of this times. Thanks God to let me listen and enjoy such talent.

Original Irish is one of the most poetic and beautiful languages to sing in!
Beautifully melancholic. A voice from the realm of angels.....
Thanks, Pollyjane- this is just gorgeous!
Women of Ireland is one of favourite tune of all time . The chieftain is the best 😋🎶🎵
Mujeres de Irlanda, hasta el fin las llevo en el alma, saludos de Argentina.
Whoooo-hooo, a voice that causes my soul to tremble in joy....
oh dear this is too too lovely I am going to cry my eyes out!
Simply amazing. No words to describe the sensation I have inside my heart. Wonderful and paceful.
Interpretato da Sinead questo brano, già stupendo, diventa incomparabile.
I have MAJOR respect for this beautiful woman who is so brave and talented.
I never heard this before. It's lovely! 5*s
I love this....love being alive to actually listen to it
Are you still with us?
So haunting and beautiful...if it were only readily available on CD... Sigh. Thanks for sharing this with us!
sheer perfection.
Who wants officiality? I want heart! To hell with officiality, it is arbitrary and false.
I love to hear Sinead O'Connor sing...it comes from the heart, it is therefore beautiful and real to me.

Rest in Peace! U were one of the kind!
So pure, Kate's rendition is also worthy.
Truly beautiful and one of the hardest languages to pronounce. Believe me, I've tried unsuccesfully on many a music show where I was announcing.
This is such a beautiful version of a great song by a magic singer, but who can tell me how I can get hold of this one? It's superb!

so beautiful !!! thank you
I was first mesmerised by this when I saw "Barry Lyndon"- and the gorgeous scene where Barry falls in love with his cousin....
Will miss you always Sinead..you were an inspiration..so brave, god be with you
This song was used in the movie "Barry Lyndon" (1977) as well as the movie "Robin Hood". (2010)
The first version I heard of this was an instrumental by fiddler Martin Fay. Beautiful song.
beautiful woman,beautiful voice
i cant understand a word, but its sure beautiful . very soulfull
Sinead. There is no other female vocolist. She is perfect.
I thought this would be beautiful and it is....so delicate and haunting....makes me homesick for my Ireland of old!!
Sooo beautiful.
