The choral singing is modern re-interpretation of mouth music that composer David Downes came up with - it uses Irish syllables with extra percussive punch - it doesn't mean anything but adds energy to the song. If you like layered vocal harmonies you might like my new song too - search for Meav - The Calling - hope you like it!

What sets her apart is how effortless is seems. Unreal !

It's been two years since i heard this song, Meav's voice is soo angelic and the choir gives out strange vibrations which gives me shivers. It is such a beautiful song, and powerful at the same time. It is no wonder why i am in tears..

One of the best versions ever - what a voice!

If anybody want the lyrics, here they are: My young love said to me My mother won't mind And my father won't slight you For your lack of kind. And she stepped away from me And this she did say "Oh, it will not be long love 'Til our wedding day". She stepped away from me And she moved through the fair And fondly I watched her Move here and move there.

This is still the best sung version I have heard..

Great percussion and orchestration. Great back ground singers and a wonderful lead singer. This version is so polished and perfect that it annoys some people. Just sit back and appreciate the excellence.

This is an incredibly hard tune to sing. The fact that she pulls it off flawless says volumes about the natural talent of these ladies, Méav in particular.

my favourite -meav <3

For some reason this song convinces me of what true love might feel like.

If you want to see what a TOTALLY PROFESSIONAL performance looks like, well, you have just witnessed one!!!!

Here in 2021 still getting goosebumps!

I sang this song in Germany on St Patricks night 1998 ...sang like a banshee!!!! wish i could sing like these ladies :) but lord above i love this song!!!!!

Méav has one of the 3 MOST ANGELIC voices of every lady that has ever sang for David as a member of Celtic Woman... Naturally the other 2 are Lisa Kelly and Chloe Agnew

Best version. No one does it better.

Just cant get enough of Meav,she has it all voice,expression,presence,you name it,never a flaw in her performance.

Sad to hear about Méav.All the girls are wonderfull but Méav's allways been my favourite.I hope she keeps touring the U.S.

I miss her so much.

What a voice!

Dearest Meav, We all miss you so much! Can you please come back to Celtic Woman? They're not much without you and Orla. With love, All your fans.
