I swear this is one of the saddest songs written.
My dad (Peter Carr) directed this fantastic series. There are so many absolutely wonderful performances in it, and I had the privilege of witnessing some of them as a wide-eyed teenager. Glorious memories.
Wow u must so proud of your dad
What is the series called ??
Your Dad is a magician; he casts wonderful spells to entrance us
@@veritasamicus Bringing It All Back Home
@@WISOTT I’ll tell him you said so! The artists themselves are the real magicians though. Such talent!
No X factor program on the planet could manufacture any thing even close to this. Pure gold.
mary black had the pureest voice there ever was
what you mean is no shit!!!
Wow 3m views! I've just come across this. Not seen it for some time. I was fortunate enough to be the young film cameraman on this whole series. We spent a couple of weeks in Nashville filming quite a few artists. I remember Richard Thompson, John Prine and the Everley Brothers in the same small studio and filming them too. Great songs, great musicians. Lovely to see how they are still appreciated so much. For clarity the series was Bringing It All Back Home for BBC Northern Ireland. Shot in 1990.
Stellar harmonies -and let's not forget Liam O'Flynn and Davy Spillane with the haunting sounds of their uilleann pipes - class!
The harmonies struck by this trio of preeminent singers are absolute precision.
No one can do it like them,makes you proud to be irish.
Absolutely gorgeous harmonies and solos. At the time, Mary Black may have had the purest female voice in the world. It's almost impossible to find a song with Emmylou singing harmony or a duet that isn't fabulous.
Lovely but no one can compare with Joni Mitchell!
Absolutely
@@sugarmaple60 why compare!
@@kayzierogers2830 Why not?
I was thinking the exact same thing and then saw your comment!
Every time I see Emmylou Harris sing I fall in love with all over again. She has to be one of the most beautiful woman on this planet of ours.
Is there any woman who has aged as gracefully as her? She is my all time favorite singer. Such a haunting and forlorn voice.
You aren't alone, lad.
I love Emmy lou and have since the first time I heard her which must be at least forty years now
I absolutely love Emmylou, what a wonderful woman. ❤️
I completely understand your sentiments. I am totally besotted with her. I am always moved by her tender voice and gentle ways. I love her .
Stunning harmonies. Emmy, Mary and Dolores at their hauntingly best. Their voices weave and intertwine to compliment each other gloriously, surreal. A perfect masterpiece.
Cannot get enough of this song. Such a brilliant blend of voices to produce gut wrenching harmony.
It’s ethereal.
A youtube treasure.
❤
Effortless. No hamming it up. No stretching notes. Just pure singing . All different and as good as each other . Emmy Lou probably the pick of them.
I LOVE Emmy LOU but she doesn't have Mary Black's voice.
Obviously Mary black wins it hands down, but the other ladies are fabulous too.
Splitting hairs. And dare I say it: the two greatest uileann pipers. Said it!
It’s all subjective and based on individual taste. For me, nobody can hold a candle to Dolores Keane. The tone of her voice is ethereal and inimitable. The greatest Irish female vocalist that ever was.
Mary black hands down
Mary Black's voice was considered so pure, that it was used as an audiophile benchmark for comparing the sound quality of different high fidelity systems.
Such beautiful voices! Angels, sent from heaven above! Thank you for sharing this wonderful video of three beautiful ladies! God bless, Brother Charles Pratt, O.H.
The pipes are an excellent texture, so mournful.
That’s Liam og O’Flynn, one of the best Irish pipers ever.
Dolores an amazing voice ❤ lovely deep tone, real folk singer
I used to go an Irish pub. This song stayed with me
Takes me to a place in my youth when I first heard Emmylou. Mary Black strengthens my ties it to the beautiful green island of Ireland. Thank you Mary for your Song for Ireland.
Sublime
Gorgeous, the girls and the song
Gorgeous version of a great tune.. . The Uileann pipes are just class...😊
Liam og and Davy Spillane brilliant
Ian O Brien oh YES !!!!! Love from Germany
❤@@Silverblade61
This is so beautiful and what a blessing to here this..
Have always loved the sound of Emmy Lou Harris’s voice. So beautiful & she makes it look so effortless. What a gift. Thank you so much for sharing.
When the world gets to busy, too confusing, too trying. I put on my headphones, pull out my Mary Black albums and loose myself in her voice. Add in Emmylou Harris and Dolores Keane. Blessed are the peace makers.
David Stephens & Celtic Dragon 4 World needs more people like you, now more than ever. bless your souls :)
Ewan Haig ... Well said a cara .... Respect from ireland
David Stephens mary song for lreland would love every Irish American to hear pal
Had Dolores in my house a while ago....and sitting down talking to her...her stories good or bad put things into perspective.....a quality human being with a good heart
Laura O'Brien lucky you
Harmony singing in country music just can't be bettered .
Sonny's Dream, written my Ron Hynes from Newfoundland Canada. I think every band east of Montreal has had a crack at this classic. I love this version; the voices are pure and sweet.
I have heard most versions, but these three pull this version together with such haunting harmonies that leave the others behind. Don’t get me wrong, the other versions are brilliant but this one is just another level. Thanks for such beautiful music. Have to listen this version ever so often. It’s absolutely stunning.
Yes it is!
AGREE
Anything that Emmylou Harris touches turns to gold. Her voice is like hearing an angel sing.
Beautiful
Mary is perfection but Emmy is mystical/magical- love them so much. Love you Emmy Lou! 💕
That song is sung with so much feeling just beautiful xx
This is the best version of this song I've ever heard.
prepared keane
Love to hear Emmylou and Mary sing together.
I agree. But you should hear Sonny by Hayley Westenra.
She sings and makes me cry
You took my comment.
fred cheney wrong guy. Not me
3 great true women, simple but with celestial voices who sing a simple song of extraordinary beauty. The voices of Celtic culture are among the best in the world! A heartfelt greeting to you from Italy!
This version of the song "Sonny" was performed for an RTE television documentary tracing the journey of Irish music (its forms and influences) across the Atlantic to the Americas. It's a great example of a North American composition written in the Irish tradition.
BBC Transatlantic Sessions, recorded in a house in Scotland - 6 series on RUclips - tracing the journey of Scottish/Irish music across the Atlantic
@@gavRirvine "Transatlantic Sessions" is a much later series based on the same model. This is "Bring it All Back Home". You can find the LPs, CDs, DVDs...
I can never listen to this just once - the minute it's over I want to hear it again...even though the beauty and the sadness make me want to cry.
Incredibly sad song. Beautifully performed.
Here for Emmy but my God! How I love that little sweet laugh from Delores! Makes me smile every time - and I’ve watched this more times than I can count. It’s perfection.
You could not have said it better, very kind words...
This tune will NEVER grow old. What a masterpiece!!! Love it, truly love it!
Such a beautiful song!
.
Who are the 232 people who gave this a thumbs down 👎🏻
This is absolutely amazing 😉🇮🇪🇺🇸
eyes blurred by tears, they hit the wrong button! Can't blame 'em.
3 of Arguably the best female folk singers on the planet with the best 2 pipers, its like Barcelona when Ronaldinho was there
Have listened to Emmy Lou Harris for many years, just pure sound from the soul.
3 of my favourite women vocalists in the same place at the same time I must have died and gone to Heaven
john bethell mix rose Marie
You did Lad, but I pray you are still with us. I met Delores in Galway Ireland, we shared a memorable time together. You have never met a finer woman. Peace be with you and may the music of the Isle captivate your bones forever.
john bethell you and me both
john bethella
No John...just go into a good Irish pub on a Saturday night. You're bound to hear some great music like this.

Absolutely Awesome I have been following EmmyLou since she was at WC (UNCG). I have not heard that she could not harmonize with ie Spanish Johnny with Waylon. I just started following the music of Mary and Delores. They are absolutely awesome also
3 of the most beautiful voices ever. Goosebumps!
Absolutely stunning 😍✨️
Sonny's Dream, written by Ron Hynes, man of a thousand songs and the Godfather of Newfoundland & Labrador music. Rest in peace.

Absolutely beautiful, three treasures!
Perfection.
Been an Emmylou fan forever, "discovered" Dolores from the tune "When Irish Girls Grow Up" from Tom Russell's album, and stumbled across Mary Black today, led me to this one! Love it!
what company. Dolores is our Janet. total respect across the singers. for those who have experienced a sing song in a Irish pub, this is it. Respect for the singer is given. Mary is a class act. Miss those days.
Immaculate and beautiful harmonies - magic.
A beautiful song written by the legendary Ron Hynes - Godspeed, Ron - we all miss you dearly.
Amazing. What a combination of voices. These women are magnificent.
Lisa how do you feel when listening to this song?
Wonderful. A class act, these three ladies and excellent musicians backing them.
Beautiful singing- enjoyed every minute of it.........Dorothy and Gene
Great song and it's been said many times, Emmy has the voice of an angel..
If there's one female singer who's as good as Mary Black it's Emmy Lou Harris
World Class. These Ladies are singers.
I love Dolores' blue note. Perfect third verse spice!
Lizabeth how do you feel when listening to this song?
Well...looks like someone has reunited these 3 greatest female vocalist.Masterpiece is the right word for this beautiful song...Lord this song is meant to last until the end of times!!!Regards from Argentina.

In a lineup at grocery store i was singing this song and behind me was Ron Hynes smiling !
@sarahspeaks144 the cashier said to me you cant sing that he can. I turned and Ron Hynes was behind me with a big smile on his face.
Just something special that does not come round to often.

This is so moving a real favourite of mine three beautiful singers in perfect harmony probably a career highlight for all three of them totally loved it so much I cried

Irish Music is so good, love it all the time. Who can improve on this? Nobody I think
It's actually Newfoundland music.
I think it is fair to say that nobody is disputing where this beautiful song came from. Having said that i think there is a lot of Irish music in Newfoundland music.
can't get enough of this song..they sound so great together
This song puts my heart in the right place...Loving and caring for the world and all the people here..These angels bless my soul..
Beautiful, simply beautiful. I can imagine camping in the Arizona desert mountains under a dark sky
blanketed with stars and lying in my sleeping bag, listening to these three women sing me to sleep.
Song after song, hour after hour. Thank you Lord!
