I like Méav's voice the best out of all the Celtic Woman's voices. She has a special talent, to be able to hit all of those high notes and still be pitch perfect and still have a nice, full, round, and beautiful sound.

So talented and gifted really appreciate your singing you should be proud way to meav ni best wishes to you and your family take care. Joe

Of the many singers I've heard during my lifetime, Meav is one of the VERY FEW with a voice that will bend as she commands it - she has a range that's out of this world. I'd like to see her back with CW but I do understand family has to come first.

Méav - a beautiful singer with a voice like silk.

So great you are, my dear, I miss you so much. The CW never will be the same without your lovely voice. Respectfully from Lisbon 🇵🇹👏💐

She was my favorite too! I miss her!

Beautiful!! There is no other most beautiful, more talented, and lovely person than Méav Ni Mhaolchatha. She is always just as you see her here. Thank you for this lovely interview so many years ago, Méav. Thank you that you are still just sweet. Thank you for your never-ending work in writing the most lovely songs in the world. Your new solo cd "THE CALLING" is a reflection of your wonderful talent and the beauty of your gorgeous voice. What you see here is the real Méav you get!!!

There are performers who have me reaching for the 'Like' button as soon as I know that the video isn't technically messed up (like the ones shot with -UGH!- cellphones). Glorious Meav always has me wishing for a 'Worship' button.

I can sing in Gaelic, though often I don't know what the words mean. I pick up the lyrics from listening and watching, and trial and error. And I love it when I get the tingly feeling that means I got it. I'm shy, though, so that means that if someone passes me or walks into the room I break off midword and pretend I wasn't doing anything until they leave. 9_9. I think I would die if Celtic Woman somehow decided that they wanted me up there. I love these women! I wonder if they ever get scared

i just LOVE how high she can sing!!!

I love her voice... its so beautiful and dreamy

I've watched this video over and over, mainly just to listen to her talk! Irish accents are sooo cool, but this interview is great too. Meav has always been my favorite everything.

Absolutely crazy about this Celtic woman !!!!

I loved her in Celtic Woman, but I also love her solo albums! She is so amazingly talented and I am using her songs to practice my classical/Celtic voice since I have never had training! I love Meav's voice!!!! :)

She’s the best

By far the best vocalist CW has. I'll miss her on this tour (Tulsa, 28 June).

a voice from heaven!

Meav is one of angels from Celtic Woman. I can't decide which one is my favorite. as of now, I luv them all

Thumbs up if you came here just to learn how to pronounce her name.

such a beautiful voice!

she's an angel...

You are one of the five most Angelic voices i ever had the pleasure to listen to. Liked it so much I was compelled to buy your CD and also the video! Hope Iwill hear these voices when I'll pass on!

meav has a incredible grace

I want her she is a goddess

I've listened to it 5 times, and I'm not even close!

To me, Meav and Lisa were the core of Celtic Woman. Without them, a lot of the magic is just gone. I mean, they are still amazing compared to most singing groups. But, I'm sorry - Meav and Lisa brought the fire. Now it's just smoking embers.

Méav is the best! Celtic Woman is not so good without her..... I WANNA MEAV BACK IN CELTIC WOMAN!! AND A DVD CELTIC WOMAN LIVE AT MALAHIDE CASTLE =)

Incroyable Meav votre voix est un enchantement

COME BACK PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!

A cool name for a very cool lady!

meav is my favorite! i can't believe she left *tear* xoxo!

I am so sad that I wasn't able to see her last night but I still loved seeing Celtic Woman

She was just in TN. I missed it, but I will make sure I see her the next time she tours the USA.

She will be having 5 concerts on the East Coast in NY and New Hampshire!

Unless they were content to just reprise past work, arranging the music for a Celtic Woman Supergroup would be a huge undertaking. I've no doubt that David Downes could do it, but it would be a bigger job than he's probably got time for. Then there's the lawyer stuff. The ladies who have left CW probably have contracts with other companies by now, so there would be licenses to negotiate.

wow.......... she's pretty. :)

She has THE COOLEST name I have ever heard. Its so pretty!

I cannot even pronounce her name. She is my favourite. 💖

her dresses are always the best

Her name is like jevels flow over your tongue....

shes kinda hot she dose'nt need to move she uses her facial expressions and amazing voice to make the song work

She is so amazing and her name is beatiful... if only I was from Ireland. I do hope to move there someday... (please don't think me strange, celtic heritage runs thickly thru my veins I think I was Irish in a past life ;)

Meav ni hwellcaha. Nailed it.

muss ich auch sagen :P Schade das sie nicht mehr dabei ist!

i love the name meav!

best of the best thank you Meav

Thank you

Celtic Woman should do a reunion tour. Like bring every one back that left and go on tour.

@ImaginaryNightshade Me too! But I try to get the words right! LOL! Irish songs are fun aren't they? :)

she i my second favorite, right behind Mairead

It's better that she pursued a solo career. She deserves her own spotlight.

i´d like to know more about the wealthy widow song - Si Do Mhaimeo I

Pretty? She's *gorgeous!*

I always wondered how her last name was pronounced.

@tennismon its jesu joy of man's desiring.its a beautiful song. :)

Minha preferida,!1º pena que ela saiu do grupo

We'll love and support Meav, whatever she does, but her leaving CW hurts. Fortunately, David Downes has provided us with Lynn Hilary, who has met the challenge of entering the tour in progress. What a fantastic procurer of talent he is!

Nee-WEL-cha-ha with a ch as in Scottish Loch. but less emphasized and not guttural. Ní Mhaolchatha is shortened from Iníon Uí Mhaolchatha, meaning daughter of Ó Maolchatha. You can hear her say it in the clip.

I personally feel that Orla was the best. They all are lovely, don't get me wrong. Though with the new ladies, the sound just isn't quite right and doesn't have that fire that someone else said that the original women brought.

"she mov'd thro' the fair"

actually, it's probably because she's from a different part of ireland. If you notice, english people also have stronger or weaker accents depending on where and who they live around.

I see!Thanks! it was also sang at slane castle right? But not on the CD

Yeah, it is :)

She has the most English-y accent; her Irish lilt isn't as strong as, say, Orla's.....it's just kind of interesting how they're all Irish, but their accents are all slightly different.

I see. Thanks!

Those 4 people disliked, doesn't believe in angels ...

@irishmusicalgurl1216 no cuz they got didree as a sub cuz right after this preformance,in one of the shows it says meav will not be preformingg because she is having a baby so didree took the place

Does Ni have a meaning?? Is it her middle name or is it part of her last name similar to de Leon in Spanish??

What's the song that she's singing at 1:50? It's beautiful, but I can't figure it out.

wow, how did you find that out? I looked and looked and couldn't find anything lol. thanks! I knew she was young since she just had her first child. But anyway, I always thought Mairead looked the oldest.

Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring by Bach from the BWV 147 cantata.

What is that first song she is singing? Its really good. Any help appreciated.

Listen to the way she says "studying law at the time" or "Ireland." VERY Irish.

She left us! She left us!

@ImaginaryNightshade Okay thanks :) I'm not really used to the Irish accent to tell you the truth, much more with the British and the American ones. (I'm French)

@sunstorm298 Yes she did.

Does anyone know why Meav left Celtic Woman? :( She was my favorite.

@matthewthomasmovies i no that but what is it i have tryed to find out as long as i can!!

What's the song at 4:44?

She Moved Thru the Fair. Unless I'm mistaken ^^.

@irishmusicalgurl1216 hehe sorry i dont no how to spell it hahaha but i no her last name is shannon

Favorite CW singer.I adore her.I feel no connection with present CW team.

what is the name of the first song in this video??

What song is it at 1:15?? Please! I would love to know :D

she's right those dresses DO look hard to walk in..

Really, do they teach it in the schools, that galic or english or both? Does everyone there know english or are there some that just speak galic?

@Hammotastic i would really like to know too! i'm hunting it down! lol

"she mov'd thro the fair".

Illuminating and interesting, but i still want to meet you

how old is she? just outta intrest

How to pronounce her last name???

@raindropstellastory i know for real!

Why did she leave???

funny, because I thought the other way around!!

She kinda pronounces the 'r' like an American! It's funny I think, because the rest sounds very British/Irish.

I think the word is "intimidating." Or "Bloody Irish words." Either works for me.

Her name is soo weird though, I thought irish had names like O grady and O'connor, or murphy

yep. its the female equivalent of de Brún or Ó Súilleabháin

She moved through the fair I believe

The Fiddler Lady is Mairead. Just FYI.
