Bill Whelan - Riverdance

[@DenkyManner]

One of the greatest pieces of music ever created. Along with one of the greatest dance sequences. I've watched the full Riverdance show, nothing else on it comes close the genius of that one original section.

[@liam3128]

Remembering when I was 9 learning how to play this on violin, about 30 of us in total, all various musicians River dancing in front of us, about 15? I do reminisce the atmosphere, so wild and explosive, friendly and powerful. Such a great way to meet people with energy.

[@stellacometa2008]

the celtic soul is enclosed in this music: love EIRE and irish people

[@gerardhughes1157]

what a spectacular piece of traditional Irish Heritage yeeeeeeha so glad to be irish when we showcase it like this makes ya wanna jump and say great to be alive !

[@mliashuay2910]

I would like Bill Whelan to get to know I made a video-tribute for some current heroes around the world with his piece "Some mother´s son" that is written in my description. :) kzbin.info/www/bejne/gYOoe4KNfLyMhJo

Soooooooooooo true

[@jasonsmith8300]

In my hungering search for you, Taste my breath on the wind, See the sky as it mirrors my colors, Hints and whispers begin. I am living to nourish you, cherish you, I am pulsing the blood in your veins, Feel the magic and power of surrender, To life. Every finger is touching and searching, Until your secrets come out, In the dance, as it endlessly circles, I linger close to your mouth. I am living to nourish you, cherish you, I am pulsing the blood in your veins, Feel the magic and power of surrender, To life.

[@Mrnickstr89]

“To life” is sung kind of in counterpoint to that though if you listen.

[@EditorOfSL]

You missed out the first words - “Hear my cry...in my hungering search for you.”

[@tjonesauto]

Experienced Riverdance in Maryland's Hippodrome theatre a few years ago. At 3:33, that's when I felt the energy! Wish they come to AZ 2018

[@jasonsmith8300]

im going to see it today

[@benjaminkenobi21]

I honestly have no idea how anyone could dislike the music between 1:45 and 2:50.... this composition is so good

[@zapatomordido3188]

Gracias

[@scottmealey596]

If you like that sort of music, check out the works of The Fiechters (brothers Brandon & Derek) and Adrian von Ziegler. Amazing music, lot of it rooted in Celtic fantasy stuff.

[@ankihansen2489]

3:33 is so much better!

[@benjaminkenobi21]

@@ankihansen2489 I can't really disagree with that, but would rather just say that both are simply incredible

Going to Ireland for the first time this summer. I'm really curious, the culture seems wonderful and interesting.

[@khateatingcactus]

Dude I live in Ireland, go to the coast of kerry and plz DON'T GO TO DUBLIN , drug dealers , thugs , and junkies all around city centre

[@khateatingcactus]

Just a reminder

[@frazzleface753]

It seems like a lot of the world can especially appreciate 3:33. It's Irish but it has an ethnic flavor that many recognize as their own.

[@CliveAGoodwill]

JUST LOVE IT
