I believe we have an angel singing this song....I am lost for words to explain how well you do this favorite of mine !!! You are awesome and I cannot rate you high enough !!! 5 X 1,000,000,000,000...
I learned this song playing with British ex-patriots in Saudi Arabia in the late 70's. I am from the US and the high point of each week was Friday night (actually Wednesday night) when we would get together to drink and play mainly British folk songs, old broadsides, etc. Great times with great people. I heard some of the best singing I will ever hear. God bless the Scotsman, Bob Gilbert who could sing any of 100 songs each night we played together. I still remember the broadside describing the death of General Wolfe in Montreal. Beware of them pretty Colleens!
Operations X Gaming: So you aren't aware that it is a young Irish man who was tried and sentenced in a British court, as they ruled the 'fair Isle' for many years. The song is sung in both places for that reason, as well as being loved in much of the world. There are more people of Irish descent in America, thanks to the Diaspora of the famines, than remain in Ireland today, by the way.To conclude someone is a 'hun lover' because you don't know these facts is truly prejudicial-and sad. Enjoy, the song, don't condemn someone you don't know!
@@Amp389lanG The 'Black Velvet Band' is a late 1700's English song and the original broadside ballads from that time don't mention Belfast but Barking in Essex. The version in the video is simply an Irish take on the original.
This is really great! I'm performing this and some other irish tunes and I love listening to other covers of the song. You did such an awesome job. Keep up the excellent work!
Mary Catherine Hayes in Tennessee: found this post about a year ago and was so rude I didn't even hit like, subscribe, or comment. I have 'fixed' that oversight today-After listening MANY times, it has replaced my former favorite version from The Irish Rovers (I have had that record since 1971). As a Fall Branch (north and east of Knoxville), Tennessee boy who has been exiled to another, lesser, state I am thrilled that a Tennessee woman with a lovely voice sings this arrangement. Kudos to all members of Eanair!
Beautiful voice. Beautiful cover.
Listening in August Australia 2023 instantly put on repeat, fantastic version
Outstanding version! Your voices are so soft and smooth. Love it! Well done.
