Nan Tom Taimín - The Home I left behind

[@PatKeogh-u4i]

Would bring tears from a stone beautiful beautiful voice 😍

[@hoss0523]

Brings back memories of my dad and mom who passed on many years ago. They both came across in the early 1900's at an early age. My dad used to sing this song back when I was a child before he passed on in 1947. It always brings tears to my eyes.

I have an Irish name and Irish grandparents but I grew up in England. I have been in India in the jungle for ten years. When I listen to this song I feel like the notes travel through my ears to the ears of my late grandparents and their parents. When I hear it, I know where I came from.

I left my home at the age of 18 on the late evening of 29 April, 1958, and boarded a TWA plane for New York Airport. My first trip back was 9 years later, after I had spent 4 years in The Marine Corps.

[@chrisdee9961]

Thank you for your service! I left in 1966.

I'd stand in the snow listening to her. Have you get her version of Amhrán Mhainse? It sends chills through you to hear it.

[@LimerickLad25]

No problem Dermot and thanks for the comment, She is a mighty singer and I felt it was only right to broadcast the quality of her singing. Slán

Great photos ...anyone interested should look at memories of old Appin for something similar.

[@richgouette]

"Why type of flute is played from 2:12 - 2:23 ? It's beautiful." to me ear, sounds like a 'pan flute' being played via MIDI soundsource. too bad she didn't have Uilleann pipes on hand.. Nice tune though slainte!

You missed out Westmeath.

[@tipptoggy]

You might want to check your picture captions, Edenderry is not in Armagh ,it is in Offaly, ie south of Dublin, Portadown is North of Dublin.

[@doniebrady4466]

Portadown is in Co Armagh NI.

[@Tellemore]

Sean Laffey like many Irish place names it exists in more than just one county

[@marymcdonagh542]

[@ratheanach5545]

Sean a mhic, there is indeed an Edenderry in Portadown and that is a picture of it,......just over the Bann bridge, heading towards Lurgan on the left, Gilford to the right, though it looks somewhat different now...as does the picture of Hill St, Newry Co Down..........

[@nilotaal4493]

What is the name of the original singer .because heard this on record few months ago. But old guy was singing not this one .

[@Lisnageeragh]
