Sublime Julie Fowlis, vibrante, pure et fluide comme le vent, les sources, le ciel marin confondus avec le murmure de l'âme celtique qui imprègne l'histoire et les terres des contrées celtiques, de Bretagne à l'Écosse en passant par la verte Erin, la Cornouaille et le Pays de Galles...

There are many ...by Julie on her many brilliant albums ...and by other Scottish, Irish, Cornish, Welsh and Britton musicians.

I got to see her and her group live in a small venue just a few days ago. She did this song as an audience sing along. She taught us the chorus and the attendees did their best with it. I'm sure we wrecked the Gaelic, but it was great fun!

Given that 3/4 of the chorus is nonsense syllables you might have been okay!

This song is very old if you listen carefully to the lyrics it's not the person but the bird that she sings of the songs origin is the song sand by the thrush the original lyrics are taken from the melody that the thrush sings at the harvest time of the year this only my I temptation of the song and lyrics and it is sang beautifully by julie-stephen

So beautiful! A time when Britain was its ‘own country’ sadly no more!

If being at the center of an orchestra is what it takes to claim the title of Queen of gaelic singer, I would prefer Julie being the singing spirit as we knew her in the first place.

Singin a theme song for a Disney movie isn't the worst either. 'scuse me while I Touch the Sky (sorry 😐)
