This song brings tears to your eyes. I lost someone before... he was the only person who understood me. If he listens to me still, despite being gone, I hope that this song reaches him. My brother, I love you.

Just tried listening to the newer version of this on Spotify and it just doesn't have the weight and power of emotion as this older version. Absolutely wonderful.

A beautiful song, a beautiful sound. For pure, powerful raw emotion, though, there is none better on this title IMHO than Luke Kelly.

Beautiful! This is a folk circuit staple, but I've never heard such a heartrendingly powerful arrangement. She sings on the Show of Hands version of High Germany, and I recommend that for the same reason.

Love is such a strange thing, isn't it? To preserve it, you must endure sacrifice, pain, and loss. I miss her so much but I now understand the purpose of grief. Yesterday, the ophthalmologist said my eyes were quite dry: they aren't now!

This is absolutely beautiful. For a more traditional, breathtaking-in-its-purity version, check out Joan Baez. From an early concert. Stunning in focus and clarity, it shows the reason she became, well, ... "Joan Baez".

"before 1707, the term Celtic was unheard of" That is simply not true. The first mentions of people called Keltoi comes from Greek sources 2500 years ago. It referred to tribes in Germany who spoke an ancestor of the modern Celtic languages and such languages were spoken all over Europe as well as Britain and Ireland. It is only in more modern times that the British and Irish have themselves used the terms Celt and Celtic but that is totally different from what skippy claimed.

allan connochie I respect your statements, but what I've learned about history is that we trust people on how it is interpreted if we were not there ourselves, we really do not know.... example: the bible. Now how much has it been kept from us, but what's worse is; is that good or bad? In any case, is it really true, just a story, or just put into place to control us. I've heard them all, and unless we ourselves were actually there at that time, of any history, we should believe what we ourselves decide.... that's called "free will". We are not robots, we are individuals with our own thoughts and our own decisions to make. So understand I respect you for your opinion, as are so many others I respect. (Isn't life grand)!

John Ramirez But we do know because the literary works exist describing the Kelts ot Keltoi who spoke a language related to the Brittonic spoken in Britain. It isn't hearsay.

The Picts were entirely different from the Scots (Scotti as the Romans called them), the Scots were from Ireland, they intermingled and interbred with the Picts, with whom they had shared an alliance against the Romans, suggesting that the Scotti/Irish had a long established trading relationship with the Picts.
@skarpethinn6 жыл бұрын
The word we know as "Celt" is a Greek root word. Also @youwinoneinternets - "Scotti" is the Irish name for the Pictish, not Roman. the Romans referred to all the peoples of what we now call The British Isles by the same name - the Brittani.

What can I say ? I like Luke Kelly's version, but the female voice brings a whole different dimension to this. Pity you can't see that. To understand, look at the video response put up by IvoniceAstird. You might learn something.

Why on earth did they use such an awful picture of Kate on this CD cover ... it really doesn't do the lovely girl justice ... nevertheless, she is an astonishing talent ... and I still love her ... We don't have to WIN the human race ... just SAVE it ... Colin Hugh Abbott.
