    This man's voice can levitate stone. The heavy heart of rock within you will lift.
    Perhaps the best male Irish singer for many a generation. Well that's my opinion.
    Lethal

    Declan's songs have the ability to drown out all of the tumult and noise around us and create space for the listener to feel the wonder of just being alive. This is a great song. A masterpiece.

    Saw Declan for the 1st time last nite in the theatre royal Waterford. When he played this song I was inconsolable. I found this song when we found out my son was gonna be a boy. And I played it when I collected him from hospital and drive him home. Thank you Declan

    I found my children’s eyes in the heart of my Australian wife, It’s been 5 years and 2 kids since I seen those stars .
    Thanks Declan if only bringing me home for 3 minutes.

    Declan O'Rourke a modern master at works, This man can skip and hop across old folk and up-to-date songs with what looks like the greatest ease, Declan paints clear and memorable pictures with his songs and stories. he makes it look easy but as that other great master paint Vincent van Gogh, great works are not easy, they come from great efforts and hard works over many years, Yes this man is a master wordsmith, a poet, a storyteller, a painter and most brilliant player and singer. That is a lot of God-given gifts for one person to possess, Me I have none of those great gifts so I have to struggle on

    I cannot stop listening to this. It is absolutely brilliant. It just doesn't seem forced, it feels so natural like it fell on a page somewhere where he stopped for a few minutes and was allowed to see the words.

    Through dark summer nights on his racing bike
    Your great granda Miko Killeen
    When art classes were done in Galway town
    Cycled home the miles between
    And the moon overhead
    Led him home as he sped
    'Til the stars over Kinvara
    Said Welcome home
    Long before I ran to be your aul man
    I dreamed of living here
    Where Atlantic waves neath Dunguaire's gaze
    Keep the air so fresh and clear
    I was 25 when I first laid eyes
    On where I knew I'd find
    My children's eyes
    And the stars over Kinvara
    Said Welcome home
    That first night I drove you and mammy home
    I pulled over in Ballindereen
    I just had to pull in. I had never seen
    Such a sky of gems that gleamed
    Orion was out, and the starry plough
    All the night was on display
    Over The Burren, the road, and the bay
    There were ten more lights that shone
    For each one of our own passed on
    And I dreamed that Miko too
    Was shining down on you
    When the stars over Kinvara said Welcome home
    When the stars over Kinvara said Welcome home!
