Sinéad O'Connor- 'The parting glass' with lyrics

[@LearnEnglishwithJack]

RIP Irish voice of an angel 🙏

[@stephenkelly7397]

RIP GOD BLESS YOU ❤❤❤

[@classicalwit]

I've always felt that this song is a metaphor for the end of one's life. It is the gentlest expression of a peaceful and love-filled passing as I've ever known. Sinead's delivery is beautiful.

[@philruane5910]

It is.

[@Wildfire.]

It is and it isn't, it's definitely a song that changes meaning depending on who's singing it and how it's sung. Which I think is kinda beautiful. It was originally written at a traditional Scottish parting song (like Auld Lang Syne,) people would sing it at the end of parties or gatherings with friends. A parting cup is essentially a drink for the road given to people leaving a gathering.

[@chiarapasqualin951]

May you now have the peace you have never experienced in your life, Sinéad. May the earth be light on you.

[@yaktaur]

RIP to one of the most beautiful voices ever

[@tonguepetals]

Still can’t come to grips with the fact she’s gone. Never will we have another like her. May you have peace at last.

[@d1ougwal]

I sincerely think this is the best version of this song. Sinead you sing so well on this. I love this album

[@Supernaturalis]

this song is just divine. what's the name of this album?

[@d1ougwal]

@@Supernaturalis it’s called Sean-Nos Nua - album of Irish standards

[@ako1439]

Agreed. Divine. Alina gingertail on YT is beautiful too. Glad to put you onto a great Russian folk musician. (From a bogger in Galway.)

[@jojolouis]

@@ako1439 Have you listened to Freddie White version? My favorite personally.... but eh,each to his own. Cheers!..."Good night and joy be with you all"

[@sheilavai567]

Beautiful song. Beautiful singer. Wishing you peace Sinead

[@williamburroughs3961]

Rest in Peace Sinead one of Ireland's favourite singers

[@carolinefromspeakinstitche8888]

Can't listen to any other version, Sinead owns this song now.

[@kostiatania]

Никак не удивительно, что именно такой человек именно так эту песню и исполнил. Надеюсь её душа нашла успокоение.

[@dbdsaltminer]

I've long been obsessed with this song. I listen to this song is perfect when I'm happy or sad. I just love how this song is both sobbering and uplifting. Full of saddness, regret, and loss, while simultaneously being hopeful, and uplifting. This is the first time I've heard her sing it and, as expected, she does a phenomenal job with her beautiful voice.

[@jerryroy5121]

Instablaster...

[@liammaguire5625]

What a wonderful singer may she rest in peace 🙏 R.I.P

[@T0ddles]

Good night, sweet Sinéad. RIP 😢❤💔

[@DaveKavanagh]

Sinead is a wonderful singer, this is far and away the best version of the Parting Glass I've ever heard

[@enochjeter3581]

One of the greatest voices of all time...thankyou Sinead!

[@TimothyDonaghue]

Goodnight and joy be to you Sinéad 💔😥

[@mardon210567]

R.I.P. Sínead; your music is immortal🥀

[@Dee-yk5sc]

Rest in peace Sinead ❤ Goodnight and joy be to you

[@joanneschumacher6023]

Rest in Peace Beautiful Sinead ❤️🌹❤️

[@chapteronefrog]

My mum loves her so much, and I can't listen to this without breaking down because of how much Sinéad reminds me of my mum. They had such similar stories and similar personalities, Sinéad's death scares me souch for how many people are struggling now. May you rest in happiness Sinéad, god knows you fucking deserve it

[@leonardo47000]

i love her. Her version is my favorite by miles.

[@paulmeahan7327]

I keep coming back to this beautiful version. Her timing and control are both perfect.

[@emanon321]

Indeed sir, and I as well.

[@jeanineromeo1109]

May you finally be at peace, Sinead.

[@CatharinaMaria08]

Sinéad, dear and sweet woman. Rest in peace, love.

[@geminycricket3337]

Lovely Sinaed, the golden throated songbird, we love you that for all your suffering, you still shine a guiding light before us. Do not be ashamed of your beauty. God gave it to you and told us all not to hide our light under a bushel. God's gifts are her compensation to us for suffering in this life. When you get to heaven and remove your earthly form, your spirit will shine forth in it's golden glory, for all your suffering has only added a patina that shall be spotless in heaven.

[@jago7349]

Cant enough of this song. Just love this ladys voice.

[@halbarbour7805]

To me, this tune speaks to the bonds of friendship, the limitations of being human and the great revelations of being human. To a life well spent and a life worth living. To my Celtic sisters and brothers out there, joy to you all and may we be in the same Pub to share a parting glass. Slainte!

[@Randomperson-mt7hf]

Hal Barbour is Barbour an Irish surname? I always wondered of its origin. It is my surname as well 😊

[@Nukem962001]

Me and my friends sing this song together whenever we have our last drink together before splitting up for the year. All 3 of us have Irish ancestry.

[@elizabethktate]

Rest in power, you singular talent.

[@তারেকখান-প৭ঘ]

Oh my god such a beautiful song

[@catherinedonaghy7711]

RIP Sinead O'Connor.

[@bethunderwood.1907]

RIP amazing talent. courageous warrior

[@graymouser2]

God her voice is divine. What control. I am a fan 30 years later again.:) What is most amazing is her pacing. This is a song of a life lived well, not in search of money, fame or glory, recognizing your friends and foibles. There are very many great write-ups to the origin of the song and it's meanings for me throw in my two pennies worth.

[@nigefal]

Very Luke Kelly-ish

[@lovestar3958]

Pritcher Malygris is this a girl or a guy and watching in 2017

[@lemorab1]

If this is a traditional Scots/Irish song, we know where Bob Dylan got most of the lyrics and structure for his "Restless Farewell" in 1963. He was a huge fan of traditional Celtic songs, and probably still is.

[@henksr.652]

[@BubbasMeisa]

its a song of humility and grace...

Goodnight Sinead. Though it be much too early, may you rest in peace.

"Oh, I've heard this song a 100 different ways I'm sure it won't phase me" I said Four seconds into it I'm typing this with tears streaming down my face, Sinnead you did it again.

[@crystalbutterfly4812]

My wonderful BF use to sing this to me when I would come home from Cedars Hosp. After re-check she would sing this song. This year she had a blood clot and spent 4 months in the hospital. She will never be BF that I knew and is not doing well, I send this song to her. I love her she is such a beautiful person.

[@SuperSamuel62]

Great version, best i have heard. And being Irish I've heard quite a few versions

Really love this version of the song.

[@cooper28clark]

i love her interpretation from this song

[@djp2234]

Rest In Peace, you beautiful soul x

[@paulmeahan7327]

After suffering through Ed Sheran’s butchery of this traditional ode, I was so happy to find this gorgeous 100% beautiful version by the lovely Sinead. Even the instrumental introduction is a delight, and sets the tone of a happy parting, rather than a sad dirge. 🌹🇦🇺🌹

[@Gaff.]

Every song she sings is hers.

[@kamistormcelestekennedy]

Got say Liam (?) Clancy's version is a belter, search you tube, there's a video of his family all singing this at his graveside very moving

this song always has me crying full bloody tears

[@leonardturner1136]

Funny, it's the only things that stops my tears...I'll have it at my wake. In the meantime, I sing it over and over again as those I love leave this land for the upper reaches of the heavens ~ in joy I sing my thanks for them...
