A Celtic Lore & A Celtic Tale by Adrian von Ziegler





I just found these songs today and I have already listened to each of them three times at least. I just love listening to them. They are such beautiful songs, so calming and relaxing, they seem almost magical. What do you think about them?

Where Do You Go To My Lovely (Marie Claire) by Keith Harkin



Yet another great song that Keith Harkin sings.  I never get tired of listening to it and would love for it to be on his new album.

Daisy Fields by Keith Harkin



I just LOVE this song and how wonderful Keith's voice sounds singing it.  I hope that this is going to be one of the songs on his new album.

Finnegan's Wake - Clancy Brothers & Robbie O'Connell vs. The High Kings

Finnegan's Wake - Clancy Brothers & Robbie O'Connell:



(Tom's classic intro included. With brothers Paddy, Bobby, nephew Robbie O'Connell, Maine PBS special, November 11, 1988)


I love the intro that they give to this song and they sing the song very well, but I think The High Kings sing this song the best. Here they are singing Finnegan's Wake on Regis & Kelly St. Patrick's Day 2011:





So what do you think?

Celtic Thunder: Heritage - Home from the Sea



One of my favorites off of their new album "Heritage". I love this song!

The Holy Ground - The High Kings



The High Kings singing the Irish classic "The Holy Ground" from their DVD "The High Kings: Live In Dublin". I don't think they can ever sing a bad song because every song I have heard them sing has quickly become a favorite. I just love their harmonies.

The Irish Pub - The High Kings



"The Irish Pub" is a wonderful song that The High Kings sing and this is their music video for it. They had this song as a free download last summer and I have listened to it many times. I LOVE THIS SONG!!!

Jimmy Murphy - The High Kings



This song is also from the DVD "The High Kings: Live In Dublin". It is a much shorter song but a fun and lively one.

Phil the Fluthers ball- The High Kings



This is a song from the DVD "The High Kings: Live in Dublin". It was not on either of their CDs and I haven't been able to find it on any CD. I like this song a lot!

Gold & Silver Days - Ryan Kelly & George Donaldson




Ryan Kelly & George Donaldson on NBC 10 Philadelphia performing "Gold & Silver Days". This is a wonderful song that Phil Coulter wrote. I love how well they sound together.

Keith Harkin and Emmet Cahill Performance

Keith Harkin and Emmet Cahill from Celtic Thunder on WCNC-TV in Charlotte, NC.



I think that Emmet Cahill was a really great choice to replace Paul Byrom and of course Keith is always great. I just wish that they didn't cut Keith's song.
