Danny Boy - Hayley Westenra in concert - 2008 - with subtitles

Here is a newly available performance by Hayley Westenra singing Danny Boy to an Irish audience. From deep in the HWI archives, it was presented by our illustrious Tourist, edited and uploaded by Dave, subtitles added. Hayley sung a very slightly modified version of the original lyrics.
This is not HD video, it was upscaled from an SD camcorder to best preserve the separately recorded audio, captured from the audience on a high quality digital recorder.

AWESOME! No Autotune , No post production, no hiding behind Special effects just pure talent and an awesome pure voice. This puts 99% of the worlds so called rock stars to shame!

[@PradeepChristopher]

Goodness... that's the best rendition of Danny boy I've ever heard! One of Hayleys best live performances too! So pristinely effortless, that golden tone. Thank you dave and the hwi team for keeping the spirit on! And reminding us yet again why Hayley is a gem among millions

Beautiful performance ⚘

[@LOOMIS1638]

Excellent! How can this song possibly need subtitles?

[@davidbeckenbaugh9598]

Because there are people like me in the audience who are starting to lose their mental connections, even to songs we have personally sung. It helps us to (silently) sing along and keep a connection to a past that gets hazier every day. Does that answer your question?

コメントを📝開けたら、やっぱり全部英語だ😭けど、単語を繋げたら少しだけわかる。 この人の透明な歌声は、私の心の奥底まで届きます。一番好き。この曲も一番好き。フルートで聴いても好き。心が癒されるね。どんな悲しみがあっても、どん底でも、未来に希望を持ちましょう。
