Celtic Thunder MYTHOLOGY was filmed on location at the Helix Theater in Dublin; fitting that Celtic Thunder chose to return to their roots in order to film this musical odyssey.
The core theme of Mythology is found in the original opening number "Voices", "Voices call from the old days, Voices tell from the past, Ancient laws and ancient old ways to recast." It's the story of the Celtic People, their legends, their culture and their stories. It's the lifeblood of modern day Celtic people everywhere and the influences from our Celtic past, which are still carried in each one of us as part of whom we are and where we come from. Voices, quoted above, is a collaboration between Celtic Thunder Musical Director/Composer David Munro and world-renowned song writer Brendan Graham, who also wrote the international hit "You Raise Me Up".
The set of Mythology is big; it's dramatic and imposing. The new and the old combine. Modern catalyst images are projected onto ancient monolithic standing stones, a giant Celtic cross takes center stage and the tempo of the music is strongly echoed in the theatrical and moody lighting.
Celtic Thunder Mythology - 'Turning Away'
In darkness we do what we can
In daylight we're oblivion
Our hearts so raw and clear
Are turning away, turning away from here
On the water we have walked
Like the fearless child
What was fastened we've unlocked
Revealing wondrous wild
And in search of confirmation
We have jumped into the fire
And scrambled with our burning feet
Through uncontrolled desire
In darkness we do what we can
In daylight we're oblivion
Our hearts so raw and clear
Are turning away, turning away from here
There's a well upon the hill
From our ancient past
Where an age is standing
Still holding strong and fast
And there's those that try to tame it
And to carve it into stone
Ah but words cannot extinguish it
However hard they're thrown
In darkness we do what we can
In daylight we're oblivion
Our hearts so raw and clear
Are turning away, turning away from here
By Loch Etive they have worked
With their highland dreams
By Kilcrennan they have nourished
In the mountain streams.
And in searching for acceptance
They had given it away
Only the children of their children know
The price they had to pay
In darkness we do what we can
In daylight we're oblivion
Our hearts so raw and clear
Are turning away, turning away from here

I have to agree their voices work together and compliment each other. One of my favorite groups.

[@michelejones4844]

They look like old time mobsters kin their pinstripe suits ... They look amazing ... Especially Neil and Colm

[@helendreyer5156]

This entire troup makes me wish I was 25 again and making music for MY living. They all express such unchained joy in what they do. Don't ever stop the Thunder.

[@bobopaxaton]

These men took this country (USA) by storm and gave us real music ! That is something we have been wanting for a long time. No wonder they do so well here. I'll never get tired of them.

[@ConfusionPlace]

The camera action for this group is fabulous - Hats off to the cameraman!!!

[@bobopaxaton]

I agree, the cameras got all the best shots. But a lot of the credit goes to the people who chose the shots and put the video together. The whole thing is excellent. You're right !

[@xYURIxLUVxXD]

I just have to say this. I'm extremely picky when it comes to singing. Seriously, I'm the hardest person to please when it comes to music. Then I heard these guys sing... My heart nearly exploded! Their synchronization is nearly perfect and their harmonies are absolutely beautiful! And doing SIX rounds at THE SAME TIME?! It was absolutely flawless and incredible to hear! I love you guys!

[@Sakiko23]

That piercing blue... It's really astonishing!

[@bobopaxaton]

I don't think Colm knows how beautiful his eye are. He only looks out of them, not at them ! LOL

[@GallifreyLives]

Damn they harmonize so perfectly!

[@magicwolfcub5530]

Can i say that Keith's voice for his verse is just awesome hands down

[@bobopaxaton]

I agree, he's excellent. But check out the wicked expression on Ryan's face when he does his part ! I love all of these guys.

[@bobopaxaton]

Neil is the only one in the group with brown eyes. and Colm has the most amazing blue eyes I have ever seen !

[@helendreyer5156]

Perfect voices in perfect harmony, all belonging to some of the most beautiful/handsome men on the planet. Bless you, lads & bless Sharon & Phil.

[@bobopaxaton]

This is one of the best songs they have ever done. Ryan's expression on his solo part is perfection.

[@cheyrichardson3058]
