You'll Never Be The Sun
You'll never be the sun turning in the sky
And you won't be the moon above us on the moonlit night
And you won't be the stars in heaven although they burn so bright
But even on the deepest ocean you will be the light
And if you lose the part inside when love turns 'round on you
Leaving the past behind is knowing you'll do like you always do
Holding you blind
Keeping you true
You may not always shine as you go barefoot over stone
You might be so long together or you might walk alone
And you won't find that love comes easy
But that love is always right
So even when the storm clouds gather you will be the light

WOW what a talented young lady

[@PrincePloppy]

Beautiful rendition.... i am gobsmacked... just wow. I had an Irish friend who sang this acapella with her sisters 25 to 30 years ago in my small home studio, and this lady sings it just like her. She has to have heard my friend Teressa sing it before.

[@roisinneylon177]

Beautiful,perfect soundtrack for the Pandemic when many have lost loved ones.

[@bluewaterpines8323]

I long to someday see the home of my folks...😔the Maloney Family ,the Neville Family,and the Moores.ill walk their fields and sing their songs.thank you.

[@jmlob10]

Honestly the best rendition of this song and I love the original Dolores Keane version. I wish I can find more of this band and singer!

[@jamesdolan4042]

Diane Keaton aka Delores Keane.

[@jmlob10]

@@jamesdolan4042 haha yeah that's what I meant

[@malmonempi3708]

For me the best version is from Emmylou Harris

[@tropicwave1]

"You'll Never Be the Sun" written by Irish songwriter Donagh Long in 1994

[@eileennestor9274]

Just beautiful lovely voice

[@thebluehurricane]

Beautiful voice and great music especially the Ash Plant

[@JanKleber]

Amazingly brilliant

[@Sveaisland]

Beautiful voice

[@tonymoore7454]

Pure Class

[@funkydunky6366]

I love that you can hear her Irish accent and she's not putting on an American twang like most when they sing.

[@jamesdolan4042]

Well its a completely Irish song so what need of an American twang, though I did hear Delores Keane and Nanci Griffith sing it together.

[@paddymac5161]

Amazing.

[@JanaSzaboAromatherapist]

lovely

[@jamescardoness3037]

now this is good !

[@pauripollcatala1855]

😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

[@darrenotoole1834]

What’s this girls name?

[@cliffjamesmusic]

Would like to hear her sing this in the arms of a cello, rather than over a "trying to be gentle" piano.

[@walterwhite3018]

They're a trad band.

[@oisinolochlainn4437]

I just dont like piano or keyboard in Irish trad, for me it just doesnt sound right

[@oisinolochlainn4437]

Indeed it is, and they kept it very traditional, not too much ornamentation. Nach deas bheith ag éisteacht le ceoltóirí óga. And the cailín tá glór álainn aici............

[@ross9827ross]

I agree, Guitar is much more suited

[@oisinolochlainn4437]

Yes the guitar would be a nice touch. Guitar sounds great in lots of tunes.....kzbin.info/www/bejne/sGfSkK2ml5eBapY

[@seandoherty9654]

I personally think the piano is what makes the group

[@oisinolochlainn4437]

awe yea each to his own. I grew up listing to trad bands like Planxty, the Bothy band ect.Well I still listen to them. I like tradition Irish old school and the piano take the tradition away from the tune... Thats my opinion anyway lol............
