So far, May It Be is one of my all-time favorite songs by Celtic Woman. It's the theme song for my book, O Lavagem. ;D

Cool! May It Be is perfect for O Lavagem. I dreamed up a High Rhulain movie once, and the theme song was 'The Soft Goodbye'. ;D
I have many top favourites, but I REALLY like Orinoco Flow and The Pacific Slope. :)

YAY!!! Do any of you know about Spotify? It's an online music thingie. Anyways, I now have Celtic Woman's newest album, Believe! It's awesome, especially the song "A Spaceman Came Traveling."

Wouldn't Soft Goodbye make a great Redwall song? That and Send Me a Song always seem to make it into my imagined Redwall adventures.
I will add Black is the Colour, but I'm going to hold off on the group songs from Believe for a bit until I see how their reception is....that should determine whether they're must hears or just should hears. I'd be surprised if Téir Abhaile Riú Doesn't make it on the list though. That's a fun one to watch!
Also, I know Lisa and Órla have other songs...but I think I got Lisa's must hears. Órla will be added to at a later date.\
I think I'll switch out Walking in the Air for Going Home on Chloë's solos. Much as I love Going Home, I don't think it's a must here and Walking in the Air is one of her most famous songs...
Living in peace, aye many a season,
Calm in life and sound in reason,,
'Til evil arrives, a wicked horde,
Driving a warrior to pick up his sword,
The challenger rings then, straight and fair,
Justice is with us, beware. Beware!

I've seen it many many times. You may notice it's in the first post (I don't add songs there unless I've heard it before). I just don't like it! I LOVE the tune and those drums are like WOW, but when did an angel become a spaceman? And he was supposed to go to the shepherds! Sorry, but I get a little ticked off when people start messing with Bible stories that much.

True. I just like the tune and the chorus.

Eh? That's not messing with Bible stories, it's just a nice song.

By the way, Tiria, I quoted your siggie to my siblings, and they were like 'HUH??' ;D


I love May It Be, Scarborough Fair, and You Raise Me Up. :)

So, every Sunday morning as I'm getting ready for church, I listen to the Bill Miller Show on the radio.  For those of you unfamiliar with the show, he plays music/old radio programs from roughly the 30s-60s, sometimes earlier or later songs get played.  He also does interview segments with artists with new albums out that would appeal to his listeners.  What does all of this have to do with Celtic Woman???

Well...there I was listening and all of a sudden, he's talking with Mairead Nesbitt and playing some Celtic Woman music, including "Bridge Over Troubled Water"!!!

I was totally shocked!  I wasn't expecting it at all!

The good news is that the interviews that Bill Miller does usually span a few weeks.  The bad news is that the interviews usually occur in the same hour every week, which for this interview is the 6AM (CST) hour!  Hopefully you guys have the show in your area!  It's on every Sunday morning from 6AM-11AM CST.  It used to stream on-line at different times, but I don't think it does any more.
But, my local radio station streams on-line (click here http://kgfw.com/).  I'm pretty sure that they stream everything as it's currently on the air.

I hope you guys get to listen, too!

Celtic Woman on the radio? :o Hooray! I wonder if that's what they posted on fb. I didn't take a very close look.

If you look at the link I posted with the announcement, they have all the locations, times, etc. listed. I noticed they have 3 shows in NY in March. No clue if any of them are close to you though.
