Celtic Woman performing "Ride On" during the "Destiny" Show. Live from the Round Room at the Mansion House, Dublin Performed by Mairead Carlin, Eabha McMahon, and fiddler Mairead Nesbitt
If the essence of music is intended to move us emotionally, Celtic Woman excells at that goal. Laugh, cry, long for home, they take you there unerring. The cast has changed over the years but the quality of their productions has remained consistent. Thank you for your work.
I used to go with a wee girl that was a double of the first singer I would have married her in a heart beat. But we were young and she wanted to live her best life. Not a day would go by I wouldn't think of her. Then with social media I was able to catch up with her but just small conversations. Anyway the poor girl had met up with a fella that got her on drugs and you could see it took its toll on her. Thankfully she's no longer with him for her benefit. I wish her well.
Absolutely breathtaking. Can you imagine how privileged that audience was that night. Intro vocals were nailed, she suits longer hair better than short.
@@conraderb It's live. Being a musician I get really picky myself, but listening to this I can hear all the little imperfections as they move and breath. So, yeah it's either live or they have one hell of a mixing/editing team.
@@glrasshopper I think you aren’t giving this your full musical attention. Obvious giveaway at 3:43. Pure comedy that she is playing the fiddle. Is this standup comedy? She’s not moving her fingers. I can’t imagine any producer saying: “You two singers, sing perfectly live, but the lady will fake the fiddle.” That being said, overall, this is a much better sync than a lot of the other CW work, but look at: 0:51 touch - the plosive doesn’t match. You can tell the singer is trying to anticipate it. 2:08 tear drops looks sloppy to me. Overall, I see no musculature in their throats. It’s all too effortless. Yes, they have a great studio recording and massive amounts of money to conceal the lip-syncing. Imperfections? I hear basically no imperfections in their studio-recorded voices. What are you referring to? Pretty girls and a cool concept. I have no doubt they are singing in the studio, as a performance, this is smoke and mirrors. A performance, no doubt, but it ain’t no music concert.
@@conraderb Events like this, the audio and video are captured separately and recombined in post from the multiple cameras and microphones. I expect there to be visual glitches occasionally if the post editor doesn't understand the intricacies of the instruments. Time codes will only cover a certain amount of ignorance when it comes to the editor picking the best visual. As a brass player, I rely on my ears. I have partook in and witnessed enough national stage and marching competitions to know the effects of movement on both breath control and intonation when I hear them. Either they allow their vocalists to prance around the recording studio or that was recorded on stage.
@@glrasshopper I think you are being extraordinarily generous to the point of being anti-concert. Did you even watch 3:37 to 4:42 or so? It's so wrong, it's comedy. Show your violinist friends and they will tell that it's embarrassingly bad. The bow has stopped, but the music continues. How? B/c there is perfect sync except where they get caught. I'm a musician as a hobby, but pro photographer and I have done multi-cam video production. If the "C" camera is synced once, it's then sync for the entire, period, on most camera systems. You can slice and dice footage from cameras A-S, and the sync will stay. If you are familiar with the rest of the CW performance, you will see little cracks here and there. Overall, it is REALLY well done, and you shouldn't fault the video editor - you should credit them. Anyone listening - CW is a performance but not a live concert. Start at 3:37, and then slowly realize that it is all lip synched...
Eahba being a rare contralto always stands out in a group. It is also why when others sing with her they end up sounding like backup singers. Her voice is powerful.
A woman like her, an artist, a singer - a man can be the most happy man in the world, if he has such a woman at his side. There is nothing more precious 😊
True you ride the finest horse I have ever seen ~♪ Standing sixteen one or two, with eyes wild and green ~♪ And you ride the horse so well, hands light to the touch ~♪ I could never go with you, no matter how I wanted to ~♪ Ride on. See you... ~♪ I could never go with you no matter how I wanted to ~♪ (x2) When you ride into the night without a trace behind ~♪ Run you claw along my gut one last time ~♪ I turn to face an empty space where you used to lie ~♪ I look for the spark that lights the night ~♪ Through a teardrop in my eye ~♪ Ride on. See you... ~♪ I could never go with you no matter how I wanted to ~♪ (x4) I could never go with you no matter how I wanted to. ~♪
It amazes me watching this video, not one wasted movement, angelic voices, and the way everyone from the singers to the instrument players are all in perfect sync with each other, just stunningly beautiful.
This song , the Call and Caledonia are my most favorite Celtic Woman songs. I still can't get "Ride On"out of my head. It's such a sad and beautiful song.
The Round Room Destiny show is one of the best Celtic Woman performances. Well done Eabha on your introduction. You did it proud and I'm still watching in 2020.
This song and performance haunts me. These 3 perfomers are just perfection. The sweet violin, the 2 voices separate then blended is stunning. I want this played at my funeral!
WOW! This is a fantastic song! Their voices so contrasting but yet so perfect together! Going to miss Éabha McMahon. Best wishes for her in the new direction she has taken! Can't wait to see her creations in the future!
That is so true. The first time I heard it I wasn't prepared for what it was about. I thought it would sound totally different from what I actually heard. I played it over and over and over.....
Lyrics : True, you ride the finest horse I have ever seen Standing sixteen one or two, with eyes wild and green And you ride the horse so well, hands light to the touch I could never go with you, no matter how I wanted to Ride on, see you, I could never go with you No matter how I wanted to Ride on, see you, I could never go with you No matter how I wanted to When you ride into the night without a trace behind Run you claw along my gut one last time I turn to face an empty space where you used to lie I look for the spark that lights the night Through the teardrops in my eye Ride on, see you, I could never go with you No matter how I wanted to Ride on, see you, I could never go with you No matter how I wanted to Ride on, see you, I could never go with you No matter how I wanted to Ride on, see you, I could never go with you No matter how I wanted to
@@srujan00 from somewhere. Or was written by a songwriter from Cork, Jimmy MacCarthy. According to songfacts.com "MacCarthy explained on Radio Eireann in February 2010 that this song's lyrics hark back to his days as an apprentice jockey. When they first began training for races the younger horses would gallop behind the older horses. But as the younger horses developed, they needed the horses in front to go faster, so the jockeys would shout out "Ride On.""
Arcieres I believe 16 one or two is describing how high a horse is in hands. I think it’s roughly 4 inches a hand. The extra hight of one and two I’m not sure how that measures. Hands were an easy way of measuring livestock. Perhaps someone with more knowledge can chime in. I’m just wondering when she sang the eyes wild and green if she was talking about the horse with green eyes. Can horses have green eyes? I never seen it.
Splendid song and performance! Celtic Woman's consistent excellence is astounding! I am so grateful that they perform in America. Many of us share the heritage and embrace their every word, every note.
Wasn’t sure how I felt about the second girls voice the first few listens. Now I’m mesmerized by her voice. I’ve favorited the song, and listen for her cue. Unique voice, I like it.
True, you ride the finest horse I've ever seen, Standing sixteen, one or two, With eyes wide and green, And you ride the horse so well, Hands light to the touch, I could never go with you No matter how I wanted to. Ride on, see you, I could never go with you No matter how I wanted to. When you ride into the night Without a trace behind, Run your claw along my gut, one last time. I turn to face an empty space Where you used to lie, And look for a spark that lights the night Through a teardrop in my eye. Ride on, see you, I could never go with you No matter how I wanted to.
While I really like their beautiful voices and their absolute listenability, I have to admit that for all of the different ladies who have performed with this group, it's hard to take your eyes off of them. They are all stunningly beautiful.
Well said most people don't hear music with their soul the closest I'll ever come to heaven is witnessing these three beautiful angels that God gave us to enjoy my Irish blood cries out for my homeland when I listen to this ⚔
Mairead presents a sensual, kind of haunting projection of feminine desire. It's compelling, alluring and seductive. Eabna compliments, and reinforces with her rich gorgeous alto. And then there is the ever captivating beautiful blonde Mairead with her wonderful violin. We wish we could be the object of their desire. The stuff fantasies are made of. This one of my favorite performances 😍
True you ride the finest horse I've ever seen Standing 16 1" or 2" with eyes wild and green And you ride the horse so well, hands light to the touch I could never go with you no matter how I wanted to Ride on, see you, I could never go with you No matter how I wanted to When you ride into the night without a trace behind Run your claw along my gut one last time I turn to face an empty space where you used to lie And look for the spark that light the night through a teardrop in my eye Ride on, see you, I could never go with you No matter how I wanted to🦅
I am in love these girls/ladies are almost as buitiful as my wife almost !! How good is this how good are they good music at its best no more to be said !!
I’ve probably watched this video 100 times in the last year and I still think WOW 😳 every time I see it. The voices, beauty, and the music just make it so good. Love it!
I watched an outtake of these two singing in a stairwell with just a guitar. They were not lip-syncing there, they were just incredibly good. Perfection is hard to accept when it hits you in the face, but, I think they are an example of what it sounds like.
I think most people call lip sync on Celtic woman videos because the videos themselves are sometimes edited (look up the live performance of Tir Na Nog, that one is especially bad) and I totally agree about them sounding like perfection
Every female who has ever been in Celtic woman is a world class singer or they wouldn't have been in the group. Everyone has their favorite and mine was Alex but they all made the group what it is today
Randall Shuck. Thanks for sharing that about the stairwell and guitar. I have seen many people write over the years doubting the authenticity of how amazing Celtic Woman singers sound. So I was wondering at times. Thank you.
It's too bad that for most people going to a "concert" means that the singers actually sing. In this case, it's just a "performance" of dancing and twirling around.
To the 125 ppl who gave a thumbs down...I’m assuming you are tone deaf or just dislike real talent? These ladies and the gents in the band deserve every “like”....absolutely beautiful!
No - just don't like too much sugar in my coffee...Much prefer the original by Christy Moore, real soul and heartfelt honesty. For myself, this is just an artificial, 'Disneyfied', Celtic theme-park version of the original which I've known for years. I speak as a musician with forty years performing experience. Each to their own however and I respect your opinion but don't make assumptions about others who exercise their critical judgement.
@@asquietas That be as it may, it hardly deserves a thumbs down. Forty years performing and nobody knows you as well as these women are known. Maybe you're not as good as you think you are?
Sure you ride the finest horse I have ever seen Standing sixteen one or two, with eyes wild and green You ride the horse so well, hands light to the touch I could never go with you, no matter how I wanted to Ride on, see you, I could never go with you No matter how I wanted to Ride on, see you, I could never go with you No matter how I wanted to When you ride into the night without a trace behind Run you claw along my gut one last time I turn to face an empty space where you used to lie I look for the spark that lights the night Through a teardrop in my eye Ride on, see you, I could never go with you No matter how I wanted to Ride on, see you, I could never go with you No matter how I wanted to Ride on, see you, I could never go with you No matter how I wanted to Ride on, see you, I could never go with you No matter how I wanted to I could never go with you No matter how I wanted to Oh, I could never go with you No matter how I wanted to
Celtic Woman is without a shadow of doubt, the absolute best band in history, regardless of the line up. Absolutely perfect. Angelic voices, great performers.,
I can't understand why there isn't a law against being so beautiful AND having her talent, my heart cant take much I'm 87 yrs. old yeh I'm in love to == johnny
The girls are incredible. But I think we should give a tip of the hat to the back up musicians. They are world class as well.
I didn't notice until recently that Tara is playing the harp here (and on other songs of this concert).
Or we should tip our hats to Christy Moore whose song this is.
You are very right.
Andrea V. I agree....their also so Amazing...👀💜👀🎸💃🎷😂🙋
Andrea Vandergragt i would like to get my hands on his congas xx
Written by Jimmy MacCarthy 'Ride On' is arguably the best thing Christy Moore ever recorded. It is haunting in its beauty.
Agreed
Most beautiful song ever!! Eabha and Mairead's voices are simple and pure perfection!
Èabha’s rich, stunning voice could cast spells 🥰
If the essence of music is intended to move us emotionally, Celtic Woman excells at that goal. Laugh, cry, long for home, they take you there unerring. The cast has changed over the years but the quality of their productions has remained consistent. Thank you for your work.
Beautifully said.
Real music, so rare these days
Eabha and Mairead compliment eachother's voices so well in this song

They just love the bad boys don’t they?
Absolutely breathtaking. Can you imagine how privileged that audience was that night. Intro vocals were nailed, she suits longer hair better than short.
I love Éabha’s voice.
I wish videos like this were getting more attention. This is what pure, clean vocals sound like. These women are TRULY talented.
Also probably pre-recorded, and not sung live :-(
@@conraderb It's live. Being a musician I get really picky myself, but listening to this I can hear all the little imperfections as they move and breath. So, yeah it's either live or they have one hell of a mixing/editing team.

I love everything about Éabha McMahon. Her voice, her movements, her facial expressions. She does something to my heart.
I'm an athiest but she is an angel for sure her voice is truly divine breathtaking perfection 🇬🇧

My dad's an Irish immigrant and I remember him singing these folk songs until I'd go to sleep.
Carrie Spencer Bhuel, is docha, níl an amhrán seo. Scríofa an amhrán seo le James McCarthy i 1980.
My grandfather had done the same when i was small. Told me stories of the homeland.
Angles all I can say listen to there words threw songs God is comeing
That's awesome I have Irish ancestry but never knew any from the old country
We're still singin them its in every irishman
It amazes me watching this video, not one wasted movement, angelic voices, and the way everyone from the singers to the instrument players are all in perfect sync with each other, just stunningly beautiful.
Absolutely devastated they have now both left celtic women. 2 of the best singers to ever be in the group. guuuuuuted 😒😒😒😒
Eabhas voice is pure beauty surely she has to be the best female vocalist of the last 50 years so beautiful 🇬🇧
I agree. Underrated
This song , the Call and Caledonia are my most favorite Celtic Woman songs. I still can't get "Ride On"out of my head. It's such a sad and beautiful song.
The Round Room Destiny show is one of the best Celtic Woman performances. Well done Eabha on your introduction. You did it proud and I'm still watching in 2020.
I miss the old ladies. Nothing compares to their voices.
Long live Ireland, irish People and their music! Eire 😍
I'm in love with Eabha's voice 😍
This song and performance haunts me. These 3 perfomers are just perfection. The sweet violin, the 2 voices separate then blended is stunning. I want this played at my funeral!
How do you only see three performers here?
How beautifully sung, Celtic Woman are so awesome. Never heard anything like this before in my entire life.
THIS is music! You don't need to actually watch the video to embrace the spirit of the song...
After she says that"Through the teardrops in my eye"...piano plays that sound like some teardrops... heart of the this song is here
WOW! This is a fantastic song! Their voices so contrasting but yet so perfect together! Going to miss Éabha McMahon. Best wishes for her in the new direction she has taken! Can't wait to see her creations in the future!
As beautiful a song as Celtic Woman has ever recorded.
YES!!!!!!
Right up there! I love the harmonies created by Mairead Carlin and Eabha. Spectacular! Mairead Nesbitt is at her best on this song.
@Laoch Written by Jimmy MacCarthy
Listen to new grange by them it gave me chills
This is truly one of the most beautiful things I have ever heard or seen, for that matter. The performers are absolutely exquisite in every way.
I am proud of my Celtic roots. Songs from Celtic Woman make me beam!
Jesus christ this song is hauntingly beautiful. I can't get over it
The harmonies in this song are exquisite
Dis beautiful song is stuck in my head. I'm Puerto Rican n luv Celtic music
Fantastic version, brilliant voices. Make me very proud of Ireland.
Beauitful song. Eabhas voice is unreal!
currently obsessed with this song
+Jennifer Ayers The first time I heard it i became obsessed with it. I literally can't get it out of my head. It is so haunting and sad.
same
if you are not obsessed with this song, there is something wrong with you...serious wrong
That is so true. The first time I heard it I wasn't prepared for what it was about. I thought it would sound totally different from what I actually heard. I played it over and over and over.....
The song (as with all Celtic Woman songs) is just beautiful. But frankly, I'm obsessed with Mairead's hair! Simply gorgeous.
Mairead Carlin has so much beauty voice like an angle gives me goose bumps Absolutely Beautiful
Beautiful haunting music from beautiful ladies.
Thanks god for making me Irish .🇮🇪😎🇮🇪
CAN'T.....STOP......LISTENING.....TO......THIS!!!
I can't either. I sing it during my cool down walk when I'm out exercising. I love it so much.......
NEITHER......CAN...... I!!!
Me too it's haunting me and I love it
Agree! Its fantastic!
mam tak samo
Mairead Nesbitt. Beautiful angelic woman. Plays like an angel. I could listen to her music,all day every day. Thank you so much.
I never tire of this.
Everyone talking about these beautiful voices, which are phenomenal but are you seeing these faces expressions? These girls are FEELING it
Lyrics :
True, you ride the finest horse I have ever seen
Standing sixteen one or two, with eyes wild and green
And you ride the horse so well, hands light to the touch
I could never go with you, no matter how I wanted to
Ride on, see you, I could never go with you
No matter how I wanted to
Ride on, see you, I could never go with you
No matter how I wanted to
When you ride into the night without a trace behind
Run you claw along my gut one last time
I turn to face an empty space where you used to lie
I look for the spark that lights the night
Through the teardrops in my eye
Ride on, see you, I could never go with you
No matter how I wanted to
Ride on, see you, I could never go with you
No matter how I wanted to
Ride on, see you, I could never go with you
No matter how I wanted to
Ride on, see you, I could never go with you
No matter how I wanted to

I've seen them twice, Thier voices give me goose bumps because of the beauty and perfection
Vraiment bien,agréable à écouter,très belles voix,le violon j'adore,les robes sont superbes et les filles aussi.Tout est parfait,un régal.
juste magnifique!

The first girl singer is out of this world
ORANGE SKIRT. GRRRRRRR. ME LIKES
2:42....when the flute floats over the top of their harmony it makes it even more beautiful.
This, absolutely this.
there's something in this kind of music that goes straight into my heart
Hauntingly beautiful. Angelic!
That is haunting. Exquisitely haunting.
OMG! That was so hauntingly beautiful! I'm awestruck!
True, you ride the finest horse I've ever seen,
Standing sixteen, one or two,
With eyes wide and green,
And you ride the horse so well,
Hands light to the touch,
I could never go with you
No matter how I wanted to.
Ride on, see you,
I could never go with you
No matter how I wanted to.
When you ride into the night
Without a trace behind,
Run your claw along my gut, one last time.
I turn to face an empty space
Where you used to lie,
And look for a spark that lights the night
Through a teardrop in my eye.
Ride on, see you,
I could never go with you
No matter how I wanted to.
Awesome song awesome lyrics and music
While I really like their beautiful voices and their absolute listenability, I have to admit that for all of the different ladies who have performed with this group, it's hard to take your eyes off of them. They are all stunningly beautiful.
Agreed. I'm not sure which I enjoy watching more.
Orange skirt.
Mmmmmm
Omg it's so beautiful! I can't help crying listening to this. It just strikes right through my heart.
I LIKE THIS VOICES ❤ THEY ARE SO BEAUTIFUL !!! ❤❤❤
I'm a musician and I'll say that they hit a spectrum of light unknown to most people
Well said most people don't hear music with their soul the closest I'll ever come to heaven is witnessing these three beautiful angels that God gave us to enjoy my Irish blood cries out for my homeland when I listen to this ⚔
She's beautiful with a beautiful voice.
Such a beautiful and haunting melody!
simply awesome version of this song.sung in such a unique way
Haunting and memorable. It takes me far away to a private place I yearn for, that will someday embrace my heart as surely as my ancestor's arms!
what a voice!
It is amazing !! Fantastic voices and music !!

I've listened to this at least ten times today and every day this week haha. so beautiful.
I stumbled onto this by accident probably the most beautiful song I've ever heard I felt my Irish blood cry out while I listened
Love this song!!!! Wonderful lyrics and tone!!!!
I am in love these girls/ladies are almost as buitiful as my wife almost !! How good is this how good are they good music at its best no more to be said !!
I’ve probably watched this video 100 times in the last year and I still think WOW 😳 every time I see it. The voices, beauty, and the music just make it so good. Love it!
The vocals are so real, love it x
Because they are recorded in a studio and processed before playback for the audience.
Beautiful, elegant, captivating. I could listen to them all day.

No - just don't like too much sugar in my coffee...Much prefer the original by Christy Moore, real soul and heartfelt honesty. For myself, this is just an artificial, 'Disneyfied', Celtic theme-park version of the original which I've known for years. I speak as a musician with forty years performing experience. Each to their own however and I respect your opinion but don't make assumptions about others who exercise their critical judgement.
@@asquietas That be as it may, it hardly deserves a thumbs down. Forty years performing and nobody knows you as well as these women are known. Maybe you're not as good as you think you are?
They have talent, but this is over produced shlock. It's tacky.The original is far better.
Perfection personified!!!
Mairead Carlin..so lovely..
All I can say is They are TRUE Songbirds.
Sure you ride the finest horse I have ever seen
Standing sixteen one or two, with eyes wild and green
You ride the horse so well, hands light to the touch
I could never go with you, no matter how I wanted to
Ride on, see you, I could never go with you
No matter how I wanted to
Ride on, see you, I could never go with you
No matter how I wanted to
When you ride into the night without a trace behind
Run you claw along my gut one last time
I turn to face an empty space where you used to lie
I look for the spark that lights the night
Through a teardrop in my eye
Ride on, see you, I could never go with you
No matter how I wanted to
Ride on, see you, I could never go with you
No matter how I wanted to
Ride on, see you, I could never go with you
No matter how I wanted to
Ride on, see you, I could never go with you
No matter how I wanted to
I could never go with you
No matter how I wanted to
Oh, I could never go with you
No matter how I wanted to

that's called lust
THIS is what true emotion sounds like, not that pop shit you hear on the radio.
I think she is the most beautiful thing on Earth.
Well well well YT algorithm. You've finally done it.
Merveilleusement emporté par cette mélodie. When the flute floats over the top of their harmony it makes it even more beautiful
Beautiful. Perfect. Inspirational. I have a tear in my eye yet feel uplifted.👍🏻💕
OMG!!!... was just recomended this version of "RIDE ON"...absolutely crackin tune ;-)
Mairead Carlin has such a smooth pronunciation and also such a silky voice. Feels like crawling into a very soft bed and getting all warm and cozy.
Sometimes love means saying goodbye :(
