As a Gaelic speaker, I can confirm that Linda is one of our heroes for the language. She's done a huge amount of work for the BBC, for kids, and for the language in general. Cheers, Linda - the Gaelic world certainly wouldn't be the same without you 👍 Mar neach aig a bheil Gàidhlig, gabhaidh a ràdh gu bheil Linda am measg gaisgich a' chànain a th' againn. Tha i air an t-uabhas a dhèanamh dhan BhBC, do chlann is dhan chànan fhèin san fharsaingeachd. Taing, Linda - is cinnteach nach biodh saoghal na Gàidhlig mar a tha i as d' àonais-sa 👍
Great globalist finance controls politics (conservative, labour, SNP, greens are full of great finance puppets) and wants to destroy family (gender theory, LGBT ideology, pornography, ...) because family is the greatest obstacle to the full control of people; muslim immigrants in Europe are also instruments for this satanic project; SNP has nothing Scottish about it (except the name). Read G.K. Chesterton, a great defender of family and freedom. Wake up Scots: protect your families, children and freedom!
If your aren't from the Highlands and didn't know, that shake In her voice is what shows she is a genuine brilliant gaelic singer. I grew up listening to my grandpa's songs, he was from the Isle of Harris, beautiful language
Being an American of Scottish heritage I'm absolutely in love with Linda NicLeold's Gaelic songs. Unfortunately i don't understand what she's singing, but it stirs my soul. Could we get subtitles for those of us who don't speak Gaelic. BTW love Julie Fowlis' singing too.
I think that her voice is something rare.... that fits in a special Way To traditional gaelic songs. Gentle young vibrating ..... a great technic ! Love so much.
I hope that Scotland rediscovers not only its true (wonderful) music (and language) but also its true faith and its true history. Reflect on the values underlying your traditional songs and read G.K. Chesterton, a great defender of Scotland, family and freedom (and a quarter Scots himself). Wake up Scots: protect your families, children and freedom.
I recognize this tune as that of "Biodh an deoch seo 'n làimh mo rùin" but these lyrics are different that any I have heard before. I am in love with this song and would like to find the lyrics to this version! My Gaelic isn't good enough to pick out everything yet. Can anyone help me out with this?
That is the tune, but as is quite common in Gaelic songs, the tune and the chorus are being used here as the foundation of a totally different song, evidently of more recent composition and called "Cuairt Mhara Gillean a'Bhaileshear do Chairinnis " as per the title of the video "A Sea Trip of Baleshare Lads To Carinish" - both places being in North Uist. You could try writing to Linda at "An Lòchran Gaelic Arts" at 22 Mansfield Street G11 5QP Glasgow.
You only fail if you stop trying. It is a very hard language to learn but well worth it. I'm learning just now, and every so often I think I'm getting nowhere, then I hear something like this song and it makes me keep going. Please don't quit, we'll get there eventually :)

First, I love listening to Gaelic and am trying to learn. 8th gen American... but never too late to reconnect! What’s the name of this song? Is it a traditional song?
Linda is singing in Scots Gaelic, traditionally spoken in the remote western parts of Scotland , but now it seems to be making a comeback through the rest of Scotland, which is great. As an American who grew up in the north west of Ireland speaking Irish Gaelic ( or just Gaelic ) , I can understand enough of the Scots Gaelic to get the jist of the conversation . It is my impression that Linda only sings traditional songs, being from the Isle of Uist I believe. but my Irish is too rusty to decipher the title of this song am afraid..

@@UISTMAN59 inntinneach, nuair a sgrìobh mi am prìomh-comment agam cha robh tiotal ann agus dh'aithnich mi an chorus bho òran eile ach tha thu ceart, duillich! When I posted that comment there wasn't a title and I recognised the chorus from another song, but you're right, sorry!
i haven't found this exact arrangement, but thanks to some comments below i found julie fowlis' arrangement. if you google Biodh An Deoch Seo 'N Làimh Mo Rùin it'll pop up in celtic lyrics corner! they're in both gaidhlig and english. hope this helps :)

Honestly, she has the percent timbre and vibrato when she sings. Just a shame there is not more videos of her singing on youtube.
Here y' go 🙃

I could listen to Linda's voice every single day of my life and never tire of it.

That is indeed a technique that is unique to singers of Scotland and Ireland.

The voice of an angel
Not a clue what is said, but Linda's voice is beautiful
Now I know what the angels sound like when they sing in tongues.
Great 💯👌♥️
Perhaps Ms NicLeoid will grace us with some more videos of her beautiful singing some time.
her videos are few and far between unfortunately..
The name means Macleod, she is my relation. I am from the Isle of Harris
In love with this performance 🙏🏼🌈

How I wish I could purchase Linda’s music on CD

@@UISTMAN59 thank you!
Why the eff am i crying?! i don't even know the lyrics!
Why are you "swearing" ?
Lovely to hear the Gaelic again, from a failed learner.

@@ancestorbridge5046 OMG Thank you so much!!!
@@ancestorbridge5046 That is a totally different song, with a different subject matter - only the tune and chorus are the same.
Linda means pretty in Spanish!
in portuguese too
Leòid means "ugly" in Old Norse and Nic means "daughter of" in
Gaelic. So her name, taken across three languages, means "Pretty, daughter of Ugly".
Is that Ewan Robertson and Megan Henderson of Breabach accompanying Linda?
an t-amhranaí is fearr in Albain!
Agus gu h-àraidh aig na h-òrain Uibhisteach a dh'ionnsaich i bho a seanair, 's a bhios i fhathast a' seinn gu tric
And especially at the Uist songs she learned from her grandfather, which she still sings often
Fuck me, she's gorgeous.
Ar fheabas ar fad
It would be nice to see her sing something in English like the carpenters
