Oh my Lord....is anybody else aware that these two women are angels????? That has to be one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard, sung by the two most beautiful women I've ever seen....I really mean that...I hope one day to hear them live!! Thank you for your beautiful music!!!
Pauline Scanlon is enchanting. Her clear, lovely voice and perfect diction grip one's heart and do not let go. What a great gift she is to the world of music.
Beautiful voice matches her beautiful face. So talented may Pauline continue to charm our ears for many a year to come . A treasure to the kingdom Greetings From Dublin
Hello Karen. Jesus but I cried so hard everyday after losing my sister, our beautiful Marian. The lady singing at the funeral mass had the decency and gift to learn this song and play it to perfection on the day we buried her amazing soul.
Come, come with me out to the old churchyard I so well know that paths 'neath the soft green sward Friends slumber in there that we wants to regard We will trace out their names in the old churchyard Mourn not for them, their trials are o'er And why weep for those who will weep no more? For sweet is their sleep, though cold and hard Their pillows may be in the old churchyard And I know that it's vain when our friends depart To breathe kind words to a broken heart And I know that the joy of life it is marred When we follow lost friends to the old churchyard But were I at rest 'neath yonder tree Oh, why would you weep, my friends, for me? I'm so weary, so wayworn, why would you retard The peace I seek in the old churchyard? Why weep for me, for I'm anxious to go To that haven of rest where no tears ever flow? And I fear not to enter that dark lonely tomb Where our Savior has lain and had conquered the gloom And I rest in the hope that one bright day Sunshine will burst through these prisons of clay And old Gabriel's trumpet and the voice of the Lord Will wake up the dead in the old churchyard
Stunning performance. The beautiful voices are perfect for this song. Does anyone know the name of the other vocalist? History of the song? My internet searches have not turned up much.
A lovely rendition. Beautiful and bittersweet. If you like this song, Jefferson Hamer and Eamon O'Leary also do a nice one. I have plenty of room for both versions in my playlists.
I can tell that there's some quality musicianship present here, just a bit overproduced for my taste, especially considering that this is a folk song. Don't hide behind the vocal processing so much. You've got a great voice let it shine. Beautiful song.
Daniel Knutson I can recommend listening to another version of this song by Pauline on www.independent.ie windmill lane sessions. Just her beautiful voice, piano and guitar

Yep, certainly right up there with a select few. Looking forward very much to hearing this lovely voice in person in a few months when she visits NZ.

Pauline Scanlon is enchanting. Her clear, lovely voice and perfect diction grip one's heart and do not let go. What a great gift she is to the world of music.

So simple and absolutely beautiful!!
Magnifique chanson et des voix splendides pour l'interpréter. Je connaissais déjà Pauline Scanlon que j'ai deux très bons cd avec "Lumière".
Come, come with me out to the old churchyard
I so well know that paths 'neath the soft green sward
Friends slumber in there that we wants to regard
We will trace out their names in the old churchyard
Mourn not for them, their trials are o'er
And why weep for those who will weep no more?
For sweet is their sleep, though cold and hard
Their pillows may be in the old churchyard
And I know that it's vain when our friends depart
To breathe kind words to a broken heart
And I know that the joy of life it is marred
When we follow lost friends to the old churchyard
But were I at rest 'neath yonder tree
Oh, why would you weep, my friends, for me?
I'm so weary, so wayworn, why would you retard
The peace I seek in the old churchyard?
Why weep for me, for I'm anxious to go
To that haven of rest where no tears ever flow?
And I fear not to enter that dark lonely tomb
Where our Savior has lain and had conquered the gloom
And I rest in the hope that one bright day
Sunshine will burst through these prisons of clay
And old Gabriel's trumpet and the voice of the Lord
Will wake up the dead in the old churchyard
"Friends that we once did regard..."

I know now why I have enjoyed your voice from the 1st note. It's because your vocal style reminds me a lot like the classy Orla Fallon. xx
Ralph Stanley would definitely approve.

Stunning performance. The beautiful voices are perfect for this song. Does anyone know the name of the other vocalist? History of the song? My internet searches have not turned up much.

Her voice is proof of the existence of God...
