Celtic Woman - Ballroom Of Romance (Live From Johnstown Castle, Wexford, Ireland/2018)

[@terryrobison9866]

Needed this tonight, just left the hospital after saying goodbye to an old friend that's not expected to live through the night. Trying to drive through the tears isn't working so here I sit on the side of the interstate balling like a school boy. Goodbye my friend. See you someday at the loch ...

@terryrobison9866 I am sorry for your loss.

I love every dance song Celtic Woman has done! It's not a Celtic Woman album without one.

[@GabyGibson]

Indeed!

[@KittyStarlight]

"The faery fiddler" was (possibly still is) an online nickname for Celtic Woman's previous fiddler (Mairead). So then I was just calling their current one (Tara) by the same name. My posts about three and then four were referring to how many of the women from Celtic Woman were on the stage in the video, and I was also thinking that because of that, it's interesting that what number you saw was three. Magic number also, by the way. ^___^ Maybe *that's* what you were seeing. A triad. ^___^ (Or a trinity. Not a trilogy, that's books, not people.) (Posted this here when I meant to post it on another thread, but possibly some parts of it may suit here too. Certainly their faery fiddler is a lively and frolicsome part of this dance! ^___^)

[@KittyStarlight]

Their dance songs are indeed usually the best part of every album. ^___^

[@KittyStarlight]

Speaking of the "three" symbols and suchlike, there is one on their stage in this production. Triquetra, symbolic of the Celtic trinity/triad/etc. and then there are three female singers/dancers here. Plus one, the faery fiddler. ^___^ It is getting interesting that three is coming up a lot lately. (The three friends imagined by another poster in another thread here, for instance.)

[@shuboy05]

@@KittyStarlight Three has been a major number for them for a while. At the Celli had Meav, Lisa, and Orla and since then I don't think they've ever gone beyond three dancers/singers on their dance songs.

[@laurahamilton857]

I just noticed the guys in the background talking to each other and pointing to the girls, that's so cute and a great acting plus to tell the story!

[@Agent-hq4uw]

Oh yeah

[@timstar2722]

Yup those guys are handsome especially the blonde hair who's dance with Éabha Mcmahon 🥰❤️..Does anyone know who's his name?

That’s so cute

[@wendyoh3381]

Terrific song, very-well sung by three beautiful young Ladies. Love the dresses too.

[@annajoyofheart]

I love how much fun the guys are having, and how even Tara has a dance partner, though she's fiddling and can't actually 'dance'. It all feels so sweet and good.

[@jwhaler82]

​@jwhaler82 that Máiréad Carling

[@AmeliaSpeirs]

I don't mind Tara but I prefer Máiréad Nesbitt to play because she can play the fiddle, dance and interact with the audience. With heels and big flowing dress. Tara is good but I prefer Máiréad Nesbitt. She was the blonde violinist

[@couzeukian5122]

Tara used to play with her eyes closed and a serious expression on her face. What a transformation now that she plays with her eyes open and with a stunning smile. She looks absolutely amazing now.

[@chrisp4682]

Been listening to these wonderful ladies since 2013, and I still feel an urge to sneak out to the forests in the middle of the night to dance with the creatures of myth and legend.

[@samcohen8894]

I've never been one to want to go out and dance. However, after I watched them perform this song on the pbs special here and live on tour, I have actually wanted to go out to a dance hall and find a girl to dance. Their music is so amazing it made me do something I never thought I'd do

[@jayamilapersson4030]

@@samcohen8894 I kind of feel like this sounds when I dance.

[@wickerbasket2]

It doesn't matter how old or new their song is, whenever I hear their voices, music, and language, I just lose myself to it and start dancing no matter where I am or who's watching

They do. Or at least, I think they mostly choreograph their own. Ask them though. I do not know everything. ^__^

[@Proud2BaPaddy]

I love how Mairéad's Northern accent can clearly be heard on the lines 'cleaned it out and hired a band.'.

[@stlouisix3]

[@KittyStarlight]

Playing this video for about the hundredth time or so this year and it is still very, very joyful. One of the most joyful songs ever written and sung by and for Celtic Woman. Ever. And I'm still imagining imaginary children dashing all over the stage of my imaginary theater besides. Celtic Woman is lovely and so is their music. ^___^

[@KittyStarlight]

Now for the two hundredth or so time in the past year or so. Love this song so much. 💚💚💚

[@lauraisnotfine]

Saw the tour and this was by far the most fun of the songs! We clapped, cheered, laughed and it was honestly so precious. 💚💛 🇮🇪

[@jameslewis4059]

I do have Irish roots in my family. 5 generations back. I think. But I still feel a connection with this. It does tap your toe and get you up on your feet. When they do a song in Irish language. I close my eyes and it transports me to a forest. Full of sunlight and moonlight, animals, creatures of myth , legend and nature. I've always wanted to speak Irish but I'd always thought it'd be a bit on the nose. My roots being so far back. Anyways. Blessings on you.

[@jacobking7840]

If you want to learn to speak Irish, then go for it! Who cares if it's "a bit on the nose," you're free to learn whatever language you so wish.

[@herbieharwell4778]

Forget your worries at the door! Most delightful and merry CW number! Great choreography! Nothing as beautiful as dancing maidens!!!!

[@cwazytom2511]

I love everything about this! The catchy tune, the energy, the vibrant dresses...definitely one of my all-time favorites!

[@DragonSlayer1417]

When I heard this song, weirdly enough I didn't think of romance even though that's what the song is about. I got the image of three friends traveling around the world. One would be laughing or all three would be laughing at something dumb. One taught the others a simple dance and they just ended up dancing while laughing at each others mistakes. And then they would weird s**t together. Chase each other around in circles, laughing and shouting the whole time. I like Ireland, and I love Celtic women. Thank you for the uploading this video.

[@kristoffmcd6745]

spoken like a true DragonSlayer. I salute you sir

[@KittyStarlight]

That is actually what it looks like in this video. Three girls in green dresses and they're dancing all over the stage. Traveling all over the world too. ^___^

[@KittyStarlight]

I keep seeing children laughing and playing and dancing (all at the same time) so yes. Most of them are girls dancing together too so probably somewhat inspired by the Celtic Woman videos in some ways. ^___^

[@KittyStarlight]

🌟 🌟 🌟 That's for the three friends. Who became singing/dancing stars while they were traveling all around the world. ^___^

On summer nights when the barley's high and the stars are twinkling in the sky Take a walk by the river side and let the music be your guide Follow where the pathway takes you, on your bike or arm in arm Through the crossroads, to the dance hall, down the road to Murphy's barn We plant the seeds and till the soil, we pray for rain and pray for sun But now it's time to stop a while, forget your worries, every one - Once the barn was full of grain, then old Murphy took the chance - Cleaned it out and hired a band - now it's the Ballroom of Romance! Whack fol the dah, now swing your partner, leave your troubles at the door, We will dance until the morning light, come take my hand and we'll take the floor Whack fol the dah, now swing your partner round the floor now one, two, three, We will dance until the break of dawn, so take my hand and dance with me The week is over, work is done, so now it's time to have some fun The place is old and there's money owed, tonight forget that heavy load The sky is clear without a cloud, the air it hums with music loud The moon is full and shining bright they'll come from far and wide tonight And will I get to steal a glance at the one who sends me in a trance? If not, at least you'll get the dance down at the Ballroom of Romance! Whack fol the dah, now swing your partner, leave your troubles at the door, We will dance until the morning light, come take my hand and we'll take the floor, Whack fol the dah, now swing your partner round the floor now one, two, three, We will dance until the break of dawn, so take my hand and dance with me Shined his boots and combed his hair, chosen something fine to wear Like hand in glove, could this be love? Is there magic in the air? The one that she sees every day now is lost for words to say To the girl in the flowing dress this night they never will forget. Whack fol the dah, now swing your partner, leave your troubles at the door, We will dance until the morning light, come take my hand and we'll take the floor, Whack fol the dah, now swing your partner round the floor now one, two, three, We will dance until the break of dawn, so take my hand and dance with me Whack fol the dah, now swing your partner, leave your troubles at the door, We will dance until the morning light, come take my hand and we'll take the floor Whack fol the dah, now swing your partner round the floor now one, two, three, We will dance until the break of dawn, so take my hand and dance with me.

Mairéad Carlin is like a cute little mouse I'd like to feed her Bon Bon's and cheese. So adorable. But my heart is with Megan. ...Megan is the daughter I've always dreamed of having. 02:24 This is my favorite part. When they keep elevating Mairead into the air. It reminds me of the original Peter Pan movies from the 1950's.
