The human voice in my humble opinion is still by far the most complete musical instrument, and when serveral voices are blended together as in this song the end result is ever bit as good as any orchestra, and no orchestra ever looked as good as these wonderful ladies bless you girls you have done Ireland proud love you all xxx
Honestly I need a solo version of this from the girl in the purple dress. Her voice is soooo rich and beautiful. (The others are great too but. A song like this truly just needs that sort of depth you feel me)
I know I'm 3 years late to the comment, but look up "Eabha McMahon" for her work - she's incredible. (Her "How Can I Keep From Singing" rendition will leave you in a trance)
Here's an solo acapella varsion by Éabha McMahon. ua-cam.com/video/tlBvKlWqJSE/v-deo.html And here's a better version at the Kylemore Abbey Concert in New York in 2014. ua-cam.com/video/eXieg940JQ8/v-deo.html
@@getorganizednotpianoized239 I like that it sounds more melancholic because of that :) I've always found the previous version to be VERY joyful for a parting song lol.
I agree. I saw these four in Portland several years back and they were amazing. What sets them apart is having a contralto. Now, if they would only bring back Hayley they owuld be perfection..
LYRICS Of all the money e'er I had I spent it in good company And all the harm that e,er I did Alas it was to none but me And all I've done for want of wit To mem'ry now I can't recall So fill to me the parting glass Good night and joy be to you all So fill to me the parting glass and gather as the evening falls And gently rise and softly call Good night and joy be to you all Of all the comrades that e'er I had They're sorry for my going away And all the sweethearts that e'er I had They'd wish me one more day to stay But since it fell unto my lot That I should rise and you should not I gently rise and softly call Good night and joy be to you all Fill to me the parting glass And gather as the evening falls And gently rise and softly call Good night and joy be to you all La La But since it fell unto my lot That I should rise and you should not I gently rise and softly call Good night and joy be to you all So fill to me the parting glass And gather as the evening falls And gently rise and softly call Good night and joy be to you all Good night and joy be to you all.

Of course, this is a traditional song, and they left out everything after the second verse. "If I had money enough to spend And leisure time to sit awhile, There is a fair maid in this town Who sorely has my heart beguiled. Her rosy cheeks and ruby lips, I own she has my heart in thrall, So gently rise and softly call, Good night, and joy be to you all! Oh, may you drink and not be drunk And may you fight and not be slain A man may court a pretty girl And perhaps be welcomed back again But since it has so ought to be By a time to rise and a time to fall Come fill to me the parting glass Good night and joy be with you all!"
I love their great voices and harmonies ... I listen this song still in 2024 and this song will be evergreen with Celtic Woman...Greetings from Serbia 🙂
I'm English, 1/4 Polish ( my Gran) and my mum's uncle was Scottish. but don't have any Irish relatives, however I've always felt like somewhere down my family tree I do, just a feeling I've always had, hoping to get there one day too.
I like *the previous recording* of this song better because it's faster. Some songs sound better in moderato than in adagio. I am very picky. The one from 2012 is not quite as slow as this one.
@@getorganizednotpianoized239 It's great that you have an opinion, but do you have to tell everyone in the comment section that it's too slow? Seriously, dude. If you don't like it then go to a version you do like, but don't just sit here and complain at everybody. I've seen three different comments you've made saying the same thing and at this point it's just getting annoying.
@@thetherrannative er... Give me a break, because at least I didn't cuss, or tell people bad things about themselves. *I like to repeat things for emphasis.*
Nothing to it if you know what you're doing, and they do. I've performed in front of hundreds with a Grammy winner. There are no nerves so long as you know your shit. That being said, Celtic Woman absolutely is beautiful to see live. The recordings are not lies. They sound absolutely incredible in concert. This particular performance is great, as are most of them. They are charming, tell little stories about some songs, and I still say whomever the violinist is at the time doesn't get enough credit for floating around stage playing so well. Regardless of that, the singers have incredible harmony, each can sing amazingly as an individual, and none tries to overpower the other. Live is only different than what you find on UA-cam in that it's just that much more powerful.
1:55 she´s so beautiful she could be an actress too. Also, they all have amazing voices. This song is one of my favorites. I got goosebumps every time i hear this
One of the few times I can automatically subscribe and like a video. I saw them live and cried the entire time. It's so beautiful what they do. That and my biggest passion is to get to Ireland. 🇮🇪
this song popped up as an ad as i was listening to enya.all i can say is wow wow wow.one of the most soothing and relaxing songs i ve heard.definitely touches my heart and puts my mind at rest.good job and God bless you guys.love you lots.you just made a huge fan here.thanks.
I love this song so much this is the only parting glass I listen to now not any other verson and I listen to this when I am doing my collage essays to concentrate me
I just love this ! Perhaps the best lineup ever of Celtic Woman. Mairead, Eabha, Susan, and Tara are each one of them lovely, and outstanding singers and performers (at the top of their game in this video).
Delicious version beautifully presented and such lovely girls to add to the mix then when the pipes come in the sound is complete excellent version of a great song
I'm so glad they put this up again. This version of this song has kinda affected every aspect of my music performances and instructions since I came across it the first time and the thousand times after. I know, weird. Getting a little choked up over here...
By far, this is the best version of The Parting Glass ever made. Great job my Celtic Ladies! Yeah, and to all the thumbs down, may your arses be parted by shards of glass!

They are amazing singers but give the actual orchestra some credit as well, they have a great team
I got to agree
Beautiful comment! :)
@@daliajojo cheers jojo appreciate your comment thanks you clearly a lady with taste and understanding and appreciation of music xx
@@stevebirmingham9650 thank you for the compliment Sir Steve ☺️
One of the most popular farewell songs in the world.
This is a good version but luke kelly does it best
@@giddyupful I think they were just referring to the song, not the version

@@giddyupful doubt it.

I believe she does have a solo version of this song when she was a part of Anuna. I’m pretty sure it’s on YT

@@rahma4 ok
Exquisite voices, better than a lot of mainstream pop singers.
Bigly better.
May this tradition live for hundreds of years from now. Until then, we all have to take that parting glass.... Sooner or later.... Cheers!
This is absolutely beautiful. I don't know how anyone can dislike a performance this stunning. Their voices sound perfect together.
Their voices do sound very good together. But this particular rendition is too slow.
Listen to the High Kings Version.
@@getorganizednotpianoized239 I like that it sounds more melancholic because of that :) I've always found the previous version to be VERY joyful for a parting song lol.
Loved this tune since Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag, hauntingly beautiful vocals and harmony
Still the best AC game. I wish I could forget it, just to discover it all again.
Same buddy also the walking dead with Beth
This song is such a fantastic few minutes
There’s a song like this in ac black flag? That’s my favorite ac creed cause I like pirates but never heard any Celtic women songs in it
@@Princeofunderworld32when you complete the main story one of the former female pirates i can't remember her name she sings this during a cut scene
Eabha is such a wonderful Alto. Her voice is mesmerizing.
Actually she’s considered a Contralto singer.
I have 3 versions of this song and this is definitely my fav. Eahba has my heart!
This is one of the finest musical performances I have seen and heard on UA-cam.
Then you haven't heard one maiud by Karliene? This is crap!
Yet another incredible number by this most gifted group of angelic musicians.
I never tire of hearing this. Eahba's voice is as smooth as silk. Good night to you all.
This is the best version of this song I have ever heard. I have played it over and over again all evening, as it is now stuck in my head.
Listen to The High Kings version of this song, By far the best.
@@paulmcewen agree, when the bagpipes hit about halfway through is what I feel it sounds like when the gates of Heaven open up for you.
I love how much more mellow and serene this redition is compared to previous ones.
Nah... I prefer the previous renditions!
I agree. I saw these four in Portland several years back and they were amazing. What sets them apart is having a contralto. Now, if they would only bring back Hayley they owuld be perfection..
I sang this with Friend’s at my late husband’s Funeral Service, the words were very appropriate for his character 💞
LYRICS
Of all the money e'er I had
I spent it in good company
And all the harm that e,er I did
Alas it was to none but me
And all I've done for want of wit
To mem'ry now I can't recall
So fill to me the parting glass
Good night and joy be to you all
So fill to me the parting glass
and gather as the evening falls
And gently rise and softly call
Good night and joy be to you all
Of all the comrades that e'er I had
They're sorry for my going away
And all the sweethearts that e'er I had
They'd wish me one more day to stay
But since it fell unto my lot
That I should rise and you should not
I gently rise and softly call
Good night and joy be to you all
Fill to me the parting glass
And gather as the evening falls
And gently rise and softly call
Good night and joy be to you all
La La
But since it fell unto my lot
That I should rise and you should not
I gently rise and softly call
Good night and joy be to you all
So fill to me the parting glass
And gather as the evening falls
And gently rise and softly call
Good night and joy be to you all
Good night and joy be to you all.

I love Ireland, and the Celtic Woman let me remember their wonderful and mystic land....
Remember, Celtic is not just Ireland, but also Scottland, Wales, Cornwall, Brittony and Isle of Man.
These four are my favorite frontline ensemble. Their harmonies are perfect, angelic even.
Goosebumps all over my body.. Imagine seeing them live.. 💕
I love their great voices and harmonies ... I listen this song still in 2024 and this song will be evergreen with Celtic Woman...Greetings from Serbia 🙂
That shimmery gold dress is stunning.
This is the best version of The Parting Glass by CW
How Beautiful! Thank you for gracing the United States with such uplifting music. All the love from the American people
I am 1/2 Irish and will someday make it to Ireland! The music speaks to my soul!
I'm English, 1/4 Polish ( my Gran) and my mum's uncle was Scottish. but don't have any Irish relatives, however I've always felt like somewhere down my family tree I do, just a feeling I've always had, hoping to get there one day too.
This is a Scottish song
Probably my favorite song by CW. I love this version just as much as the previous.

No matter how many times I listen to this song. I never get tired of it. It just become part of my daily routine.
My husband and I recently lost a good friend. This ones for you Joel.
Not my favorite rendition of the song but that thunderous applause speaks for itself. These women are amazingly talented
I prefer their previous version. This version is *too slow*
Beautiful my dad played in a brass band for over fifty years and when he passed the band played this it was absolutely so emotional for me
ABSOLUTELY MY FAVORITE. GOD BLESSED YOU ALL WITH THE MOST BEAUTIFUL VOICES.
I always give credit to people who have the nerve to perform for such huge crowds I can't imagine how nerve racking it is
Nothing to it if you know what you're doing, and they do. I've performed in front of hundreds with a Grammy winner. There are no nerves so long as you know your shit.

Good. Now it replays indefinitely
i just type "cel" and this is the first song that comes up no jokes

I saw the Ancient Lands performance of this song on TV yesterday. Mind blowing. So many emotions when listening to this song.
We are playing this at my father’s service on Dec 10. I will just be a puddle on the floor, thanks
And I was a puddle. Fortunately it was at the end of the service. My father would have loved this.
Grieve in grace, dear friend. You will meet him when heaven's glass parts for you.
Aaaaaa! Just perfect!!!
Beautiful women, beautiful voices. Greetings from Germany.
This is so beautiful & the addition of the pipes is perfect.
Spectacular ladies!!
