Caitríona's voice is always a treat even for the most demanding ear. Tks to all of you, Blessings 🕊️🇵🇹

[@zachbecvar]

Breathtaking visuals to compliment Caitriona's utterly beautiful and haunting vocals. Such a stirring and emotive video. ❤❤👏👏

[@ellawilkenharp]

So beautiful! And I always love Anuna's male droning!

[@CalUni]

I love how delicate and quiet she sings at certain points. Breathtaking range.

[@irishrosa6115]

I thought the same 😊 The quieter notes catch my attention.

[@MicahDodson-j9x]

I am always found of the combination between incredible voices, beautiful photography and nature. It really transports the listener/viewer into a different world. Outstanding work Anuna!

[@anunachoir]

Thank you. I hope people realise that streaming and purchasing our music is our only income from this as we rarely tour so it's great to make all this happen but we need support.

[@MicahDodson-j9x]

@@anunachoir No problem! I'm glad to see amazing talent and good work! Where can I purchase your music? Is iTunes a way?

[@anunachoir]

Yes

Bravo pour la chanteuse qui descend si bien dans le grave. Bravo pour la vidéo en 4K c'est une merveille. Je suis envouté par les paysages la chanteuse ...

[@jonathanwetherell3609]

Just the thing for a Sunday mornings relaxation. Love the visuals as well.

[@alesiamchugh4332]

I can hardly breathe that is beautiful

[@BinkyTheElf1]

Haunting sounds reaching across millennia. “The Celts are the race that God made mad: for all their wars are happy, and all their songs are sad.”

[@lennieblue]

I have a few Anuna's albums and one M'anan. I need more. ❤

[@AgentCooper1982]

[@stephanbuchner639]

Diese Stimme löst in mir eine längst verloren geglaubte Sehnsucht nach Irland aus❤

[@merri-toddwebster2473]

Those perfect breathy low notes killed me. When will the new album be available?

[@kukundrela]

💜

[@pippinisawesome52]

This is gorgeous. I’m about to be as obsessed with it as I am Fill, Fill a Rún. When does the new album drop? I want to add it to all the playlists!!

[@anunachoir]

Not for a long time on streaming. Maybe next month on Bandcamp

[@briandocherty7242]

Vosotros Ecos Espirituales de la Tierra...Enraizados...Eternos...Indestructibles. Sois las cuerdas de la cítara de Hertha, nuestra Madre♡.~ Ælfrēd Von Maschwitz, Argentine Republic.🛡🏹

[@BinkyTheElf1]

A song from a time when the Catholic mass was banned, and they assembled at rocks & on the hillsides for secret holy communion services. Did you go then to the grеy rocks And behind a wind-swept crevicе there Did you find our Mary gently waiting Our lady,sweet and fair? Did the sun shine brightly 'round her Making gold darts through her hair? And will you stay silent as the day When the wind has left the air? Oh, my Mary, long we wait here While the hunter combs the mountains high And the soft wind whispers "Guard her," Though as hunted we must die. Oh, the dawn is longtime coming And the long night clings with care But they shall not find with their chains to bind My Mary, pure and fair.

[@anunachoir]

That is lore, not fact I believe. The song as presented here is a love song and and nothing more. I've heard stuff spouted about the valentine being the priest and "Rock" being a mass rock. But Carrig or Carrick is a name used for towns across Ireland. I would say, based on the text we used, this is not political. Usually political songs are overt and use specific imagery that is identifiable. Correct me if I am wrong and please site sources as I'm sure there are many questions. Oh - and your translation is completely incorrect.

[@kukundrela]

@@anunachoir May I ask you for the text you used? I'd love to be able to sing along to the exact lyrics. Thanks in advance.

[@anunachoir]

That will be available on the album release but you can find it online pretty easily. That made up Oirish translation is pretty offensive and propaganda

[@kukundrela]

@anunachoir Yeah, I don't believe in the propaganda ;) I would like to see the text you used, because online searches deliver slightly different texts. I'll see it at the release then.

[@anunachoir]

I might post it here

[@chretienthibault7122]

Hi Anuna, just to let you know, some of your songs are unavailable in Spotify 😢

[@anunachoir]

You mean Otherworld I think. It isn't available at the moment.

[@the_foxhole]

💚🤍🧡

[@Lex_Lugar]

Why don’t they put Caitriona’s name in the title like they do with the other singers?

[@anunachoir]

Her name is on the video itself. Based on our stats people don't bother either looking at the title nor reading the information under it. Don't worry - we will be removing all text names on videos on KZbin asap. Thanks for reminding us.

[@anunachoir]

Done - thank you. Now there is no inequity - you are brilliant!

[@anunachoir]

We've kept solos on the Systir videos and the solo videos. Thanks again.

[@Lex_Lugar]

@@anunachoirMy bad. I worded that a little more aggressively than I should. I thoroughly enjoyed the production. Good work.

[@anunachoir]

Not at all. Singers are always credited. There is the odd idea that the soloist is the most important person in a vocal ensemble piece. The fact is that soloists are greatly enhanced by the sound of ANÚNA, something that is rarely acknowledged. But that is the way of the world.
