Black is the Colour - Slainte

[@maltavmalta]

Slainte! Fantastic version of this classic song. Salmon's Leap, Gaelic Storm, Cara Dillon and this version are my equal favourites of one of the most beautiful and under-rated love songs of all time.

[@JTDebris]

I also love Lynn's voice and everybody else's singing and musicianship! xoxoxo DP - USA - Bensalem, PA

wow! you're one of the members? wow great song! You really do justice to this irish traditional song. I love the way you guys play and the way your singers meld their voices together. Just listening to the song tugs at my heart at bring a tear to my eye. I can feel the love and the passion in the song. Well done! Very very wonderful work. I added this video to my favourites. It is so beautiful!

This is one of my favorite songs. Your arrangement is truly beautiful. I first heard it on Windham Hill's Celtic Christmas 3, as an instrumental piece by James McNally. His use of instruments and the way his arrangement begins with fewer instruments, then builds depth and complexity as more instruments are added, carries the listener on a sensual and haunting journey. When I discovered KZbin just a few weeks ago, this was one of the first songs I looked for.

[@vcxlll]

beautiful.... listen to it while playing couterstrike...

[@yasuragitea]

just lovely a very haunting song, as a harpist I'm always thrilled to hear a harp being played. Great job Mark. tara

[@jojonin]

its wonderful! I love it

[@sonyahannah]

Lynne has a voice of smoky bronze. . .beguiling and lovely.

[@paulsweeney2215]

A very nice delivery of this song.

[@Hecky123]

I love this song, and it's played beautifully. I've heard it by The Corrs, and Banshee in the Kitchen, but your version is just as good. Cheers.

[@JTDebris]

Yes, Mark, I really like the harp player! DP

[@ruffynest]

awesome

[@stenfisher]

Great, man!

[@TheKandyking]

Amazing

[@Robikitara]

Favorited!!! 5*****

[@Guytsu]

Beautiful, absolutely beautiful. I expecially like the harp in this song. Is there possibly an instumental version of this song, without vocals? The vocals are great as well, but to me, an instrumental version would be so much more soothing. The kind of song I'd listen to while lying in bed, to enable me to drift off into a peacful, pleasant sleep

[@JTDebris]

I also love the harpist, Mark! This is DP, the lady who used you used to email back and forth with. Wish I could have gotten to the UK to visit you. Maybe some day! When are you coming to the Philadelphia area? Love, DP

[@jandrox2406]

bellisimo...

[@Chelseagal246]

Strictly speaking Sláinte means health, however it is often used in Ireland as a toast - as in 'your health'

[@xxxShadowSongxxx]

The first time when I heard this lovely song had a place in Poland, in the some castle, 'ksiaz' perhaps. It was the concert of Lincolshire Youth Choir and Symphony Orchestra. Since then I was looking for this amazing ballade without any resoults. And now you give me this pleasure to listening it. You don't have any idea how much I am grateful. Please, tell me have you recorded and published your CD album? I wish to buy one and I'm intrested is it possible to deliver it to my place in Germany?

[@PetshopPete]

REAL NICE VERSION THANKS PET SHOP PETE

[@LisanderMvsicvs]

@lilypog: it's a low whistle. It *IS* a penny whistle on steroids, actually :-) Same fingering, easier to play than a flute, has a nice sound.

[@JaiMaJames]

Beautifully rendered!!! What kind of Flute is that and what key??? Would love to know...Thanks!!!

[@allwillbewell]

Is that the same chap as the one who plays the fiddle on other stuff? Now playing woodwind? Is he general all-round genius, also in national football team and leading army in Afghanistan?

[@clanntara]

lovely version. What tuning is the bouzouki player using...GDAD, GDAE or other?

[@idespisemicrosoftwindows3240]

Can I use yoyr song siege of a nation/yew tree for a video showing pictures opf castles

[@jipebizz123]

[@Fionnuala1969]

@MarkHarmer damn..... so far away. So far I only sing and play bodhran, tho. Good luck.

[@bassjammer14]

ok, true Irish people type out their accents. I'm from Scotland and you don't see me typing out rolling R's....

[@1moondaisy]

Hi there, have you found a singer for your band yet? or a lead instrumentalist? would you be interested in the instrumentalist being a fiddle player? We are based in Rugby, Warwickshire. I am a lead vocalist my partner plays fiddle. would you be interested in seeing us?

[@quagswag]

Pleasant enough and well executed. For me has nowhere the depth of emotion that Christy Moore puts across - but that's personal opinion for you : )

[@ben15193]

alrite!!!!!!! didn no dat haha

[@ronandelargy101]

what are you talkin bout?!! i think you'll find its a very old irish folk song! its as irish as irish cud get! and btw theres an area known as clyde in ireland... but those words arent even in the song so thats really not relevant

[@blondeyalert]

r ye irish??? ye do not sound like me atal!! im irish nd fukin proud!! wooooooo

[@cunlahound]

the only better version iv heard is from a band called "Ghost of a dead dog" who have disappeared unfortunately

[@StrayCatInTheStreets]

erm..sorry to inform you but It's not an American song.. It's a scottish-Irish song... :)

[@1moondaisy]

I am interested. I am a lead vocalist. I am based in Rugby. Would you be interested in seeing me?

[@bassjammer14]

ahh i meant "Irish people DONT type out their accents"

[@ben15193]

i thought dis was a christy moore song
