@@mykzalot It didn't take that long when we (the audience) sang it with them in Denver for their Symphony Christmas concert, but then again, most in the audience were die-hard Celtic Woman fans so they knew the piece pretty much by heart from watching the DVD and listening to the CD of the original Atlanta concert.
What a wonderful song, these Celtic Woman are so classy, how can you not feel the emotions. i have truly never heard a sound as perfect as all the woman sing it is Angelic to me and warms my heart. Thank you Celtic Woman
Did you notice they're missing a drummer also? I think one of the two married him , and started a family? Would you not retire from the road if that was the next step in your life?
I love this song so much!!! It is a shame that both lovely ladies left but every time I hear this song, I think of Lisa Kelly and Chloe Agnew and wish them well on their journey through life, wherever it may lead them. :)
Lisa Kelly and Chloe Agnew will be doing a show together,May 10,2014 at the Fred Theater,Peachtree City ,GA. Special guest Paul Byrom(Celtic Thunder). Has got to be one for the ages.
Thanx to you postin and thanx to the ladies for a fantastic night yesterday.I´ll always remember that night!! A fantasic concert and many tears that flow..And so many moments of pure gladness hope and love!!! THANX!!!!
Jess Caron Is this new celtic music or a new interpretion of an old classic one? It's a bit too repetative to be new music I think, at least when I think what the old traditional songs were in my part of our country and what the new traditional songs are but I don't know how it goes in UK.
The current CW US tour- which just ended- was called Destiny. Meav Ni Mhaolchatha ( a former and recurring member) is now the new creative consultant and vocal coach for Celtic Woman. Meav has used her new found formal influence, to inject CW with a more traditional Celtic flavor and feel. Reference Celtic Woman Destiny on You Tube here and tell the difference right away. I'm sure all who long for more "Celticness" in the music will appreciate Meav's dedication to this effort. ...and enjoy. :)
Thank God for the grass roots efforts of "Friends of Fox" who saved this beautiful venue and landmark from certain destruction back during the 70's and made hosting of top notch productions such as this possible.
In case anyone wants this song, it's exclusive to the German edition of Believe. Luckily, you can buy the album for cheap on Amazon.de (which isn't too hard to navigate since the layout is set up the same). The other exclusive songs are also worth it including a Susan McFadden cameo on I'm Counting on You (with Chris de Burgh) and a beautiful cover of Tears in Heaven by Chloe.
its because they all sang :D it's amazing, they teach the chorus and everybody can sing along :) ONLY 8 MORE DAYS !!! :D till their concert in Vienna :D
Yea, but this was the 2nd time I had the honor of singing with them (well, again, me and 1800 other people). Lisa Kelly was doing "Green The Whole Year Round" at the Celtic Woman Christmas Symphony tour last year, and she had to instruct all of us in the audience how to sing the chorus. Singing "Green Grow The Rushes" was a little easier last April when I saw them in concert, as I wasn't high in the upper "ring" balcony afraid I might fall out over the railing (I hate Boettcher Hall!).
Note to anyone confused at hearing this male-viewpoint song performed by women: No, they're not lesbians. It's a Robert Burns poem, and Celtic Woman has a standing policy of never trying to gender-flip a lyric. See "Black is the Colour" in the same concert.
Okay this is freaking me out a lot.. I woke up this morning, for some reason singing this song.. Not instantly but a few minutes after waking up, I just had this in my head and was humming it at first, I didn't know why i had that melody in my head so i decided to add some words to fit it.. I was really actually saying " Greeeen grow the Russian " and doing it with an Irish accent. Just sounded nice like that.. Then I start questioning why im singing it in the first place because i have literally never heard this fucking song before in my life time. Then i go on RUclips to look it up and sure enough there is a song named " green grows the rushen " Which by all means, is basically what i was saying.. Just not " Russian " and the hairs stood up on the back of my neck... These mother fuckers sang it exactly how i was singing it.. I'VE NEVER HEARD THIS SONG BEFORE IN MY LIFE...EVER.. So wtf?! I'm just going to ignore this and act like there isn't something trying to tell me anything. Im not ready for this twilight shit right now.
And now Chloe is "taking a break" leaving only Mairead of the original five. Speculation if flying thick and fast, but at this moment only David Downes knows for sure who will replace Chloe.
A young male is like a virile young deer buck...he runs to an fro, seeking much more than he can know....and if the lad had such a shoulder to 'LOOK OVER' might say, as he is hunted now weak and old" Green Grow the Rushes...'
Irish classic? It's a Scottish song written by Robert Burns. And it's "Green grow the RASHES". Nice version, though. Green grow the rushes is an English folk song with entirely different words and tune.
+Barbara Foster Rashes is the scottish word for rushes .As has been mentioned earlier the poem is by Robert Burns (Scotland's most famous poet) and is written in Scots..Hope this clarifies matters see lyrics below Chor. - Green grow the rashes, O; Green grow the rashes, O; The sweetest hours that e'er I spend, Are spent amang the lasses, O. There's nought but care on ev'ry han', In ev'ry hour that passes, O: What signifies the life o' man, An' 'twere na for the lasses, O. Green grow, &c. The war'ly race may riches chase, An' riches still may fly them, O; An' tho' at last they catch them fast, Their hearts can ne'er enjoy them, O. Green grow, &c. But gie me a cannie hour at e'en, My arms about my dearie, O; An' war'ly cares, an' war'ly men, May a' gae tapsalteerie, O! Green grow, &c. For you sae douce, ye sneer at this; Ye're nought but senseless asses, O: The wisest man the warl' e'er saw, He dearly lov'd the lasses, O. Green grow, &c. Auld Nature swears, the lovely dears Her noblest work she classes, O: Her prentice han' she try'd on man, An' then she made the lasses, O. Green grow, &c.
Great song and well sung, if a bit homogenised. To my mind, the show element in the Celtic Woman performances distracts too much from the music. A lot of people seem to like it that way, though.
I respect the singers and musicians but to me this is the most saccharine soulless version of this song i have ever heard, Disney shite. Celtic Woman is music for your granny.
Lisa Kelly and Chloe Agnew,simply brilliant.Perfect harmony.
Wow. One of my favorite moments with Celtic Woman . What a song , what a performance . Love the sing along . Felt like we were all there .
This, to me, was the most magical performance of Believe. It gave me goosebumps seeing and hearing the whole crowd singing along.
The crowd joining in this song is one of the greatest CW moments ever.
Too bad I wasn't there, I would have loved it.
@Terry Blanton hours???
@@mykzalot It didn't take that long when we (the audience) sang it with them in Denver for their Symphony Christmas concert, but then again, most in the audience were die-hard Celtic Woman fans so they knew the piece pretty much by heart from watching the DVD and listening to the CD of the original Atlanta concert.
It's a beautiful song and made even more so by the hundreds of voices singing the chorus. Lovely no matter whether it is Scotch or Irish.
scotch is drink Not people,think ye mean scots
Yes Micheal, somebody else already corrected me on that. I guess my ancestors were Scottish not Scotch. So is the song also Scottish ?
Barbara Foster Yes, Barbara. It was written by Robert Burns
@@michaelclark1501 Or tape. I use lots of Scotch tape but I don't drink.
@@claireakaforestgreenorgang9506 or an egg!
NO one better than Lisa Kelly and Chloe Agnew!
Hugo Du Toit Hayes I agree, although Meav and Orla did a good job too.
I'm looking and I'll let you know If I find any but don't hold your breath
My life would be incomplete without these lassies, oh
What a wonderful song, these Celtic Woman are so classy, how can you not feel the emotions. i have truly never heard a sound as perfect as all the woman sing it is Angelic to me and warms my heart. Thank you Celtic Woman
Just when I thought it was impossible to hear anything more perfect they go and top themselves again
It's still sad that they both left... 'cause they're the best friends :')
They still are, and still perform together occasionally.
Did you notice they're missing a drummer also? I think one of the two married him , and started a family? Would you not retire from the road if that was the next step in your life?
Earl Hollar .
I love this song so much!!! It is a shame that both lovely ladies left but every time I hear this song, I think of Lisa Kelly and Chloe Agnew and wish them well on their journey through life, wherever it may lead them. :)
The best sort of song to get stuck in your head...especially when it's this lovely rendition with Lisa's and Chloe's beautiful harmony. ☺
I've listened to this song probably 30 times now within the last 72 hours and it still hasn't gotten old
Green Grow the Rushes was written by the Scottish Poet Robert Burns, he was well know for spending time with the lassies.
Beautiful lassies singing "Green Grow the Rushes O", Burns would love it.
I love how everyone is singing along. Talk about chills!
Can't stop watching this clip, thanks Lisa and Chloe :-)
Lisa Kelly and Chloe Agnew will be doing a show together,May 10,2014 at the Fred Theater,Peachtree City ,GA.
Special guest Paul Byrom(Celtic Thunder). Has got to be one for the ages.
2020 now and can never tire of listen to these two beautiful voices.

+MisLuck I don't know, I just know that everybody says Celtic Woman isn't real Irish music.

It's not fake. It's real Celtic music.

Agree on both counts. If anyone has an opportunity to see something, anything, at the Fox in Atlanta, by all means do it. It is in a word... fabulous.
Best song with a moving and heart-warming moment. I really loved it!!
this really made my night last night to sing along in Portland OR ! FUN!!!! :D
can't get enough of this song...
I did as well, but I can't remember the exact day. It is absolutely amazing. :)
👍👏One of my favorite Celtic Woman songs!👍👏
Annnd I'm crying.
I Sooo Love there Music!!!!

shuboy05 Hmm, I just noticed it's also on the Barnes and Noble edition which might be harder to find.
Love this song
The best i ever seen
its because they all sang :D it's amazing, they teach the chorus and everybody can sing along :)
ONLY 8 MORE DAYS !!! :D till their concert in Vienna :D
This one *is* on the Believe Deluxe edition (exclusive to Barnes and Noble), along with "Smile" (both bonus tracks).
Awesome❤❤❤
I love green grass. O
This is better than the original.
Moses was found among the rushes i think what a leader montaineer as well!
Celtic Women - Green Grow The Bushes
Yea, but this was the 2nd time I had the honor of singing with them (well, again, me and 1800 other people). Lisa Kelly was doing "Green The Whole Year Round" at the Celtic Woman Christmas Symphony tour last year, and she had to instruct all of us in the audience how to sing the chorus.

T I love green grass of o
veramente stupendo
Great
Very music my name's is Connor and I wish a was in that choir
I’m shanebearddj I’m biggest fan ever so beautiful song ever
Gyönyörű szép
I think the most upsetting thing is when the song is uploaded with the wrong title. It is the RASHES OH. Not rushes oh. READ Burns's poem people.
Note to anyone confused at hearing this male-viewpoint song performed by women: No, they're not lesbians. It's a Robert Burns poem, and Celtic Woman has a standing policy of never trying to gender-flip a lyric. See "Black is the Colour" in the same concert.
its scottish laddie robert burns lovely.version thank you usa
why do they leave so many beautiful songs out of the CD's? where can I get this song?
Okay this is freaking me out a lot.. I woke up this morning, for some reason singing this song.. Not instantly but a few minutes after waking up, I just had this in my head and was humming it at first, I didn't know why i had that melody in my head so i decided to add some words to fit it..

I'm just going to ignore this and act like there isn't something trying to tell me anything. Im not ready for this twilight shit right now.
zajebiste
Um why was this not included on the album?
Burns was Scottish, "Green Grow The Rashes, O" belongs to the world, but is Scottish first.
They do several songs that aren't specifically Irish. I did not know this was a Burns poem!
+Anthony Xavier
The Irish are good at stealing from the Scots, they've been doing it for years
Ahem, what about the Whiskey industry!
🤔The *rashes?* It's the *rushes* isn't it?🤔
A song about a guy chasing tail.
2:10 Everybody should have lighters. : ) This song is so beautiful.
The size of that theater, and filled to capacity . the sprinklers would go off.!
I THINK THEY WERE LOVERS
I ship it. XDDDD
And now Chloe is "taking a break" leaving only Mairead of the original five. Speculation if flying thick and fast, but at this moment only David Downes knows for sure who will replace Chloe.
A young male is like a virile young deer buck...he runs to an fro, seeking much more than he can know....and if the lad had such a shoulder to 'LOOK OVER' might say, as he is hunted now weak and old" Green Grow the Rushes...'
I am gonna miss the chimistry between those two now that Lisa have deside to start a school for singers.
Green grow the rashes if you mess with the wrong lassie
Not on an album?
On the BELIEVE Cd and DVD.
Bonus live track on Believe.
Класс++++++
Irish classic? It's a Scottish song written by Robert Burns. And it's "Green grow the RASHES". Nice version, though.
Green grow the rushes is an English folk song with entirely different words and tune.
Rashes? OMG, you're serious?
Nice song, but the correct title is "Green Grow the Rashes"
+Olaf Graven OK, so please explain "rashes".
Thanks, Terry. But isn't Olaf Graven wrong about the title? I believe the correct title is "Green Grow the RUSHES". The other makes no sense.
+Barbara Foster Rashes is the scottish word for rushes .As has been mentioned earlier the poem is by Robert Burns (Scotland's most famous poet) and is written in Scots..Hope this clarifies matters see lyrics below
Chor. - Green grow the rashes, O;
Green grow the rashes, O;
The sweetest hours that e'er I spend,
Are spent amang the lasses, O.
There's nought but care on ev'ry han',
In ev'ry hour that passes, O:
What signifies the life o' man,
An' 'twere na for the lasses, O.
Green grow, &c.
The war'ly race may riches chase,
An' riches still may fly them, O;
An' tho' at last they catch them fast,
Their hearts can ne'er enjoy them, O.
Green grow, &c.
But gie me a cannie hour at e'en,
My arms about my dearie, O;
An' war'ly cares, an' war'ly men,
May a' gae tapsalteerie, O!
Green grow, &c.
For you sae douce, ye sneer at this;
Ye're nought but senseless asses, O:
The wisest man the warl' e'er saw,
He dearly lov'd the lasses, O.
Green grow, &c.
Auld Nature swears, the lovely dears
Her noblest work she classes, O:
Her prentice han' she try'd on man,
An' then she made the lasses, O.
Green grow, &c.
+David Kidd Oh and you really should watch the dougie maclean version for authenticity of how it should be sung in scots
regards
😅
its not irish, it's Scottish. Written by Rabbie Burns.
funny, I thought the Russkies were RED.
PPaco N. Martinez-Garoutte *rushes.*
Great song and well sung, if a bit homogenised. To my mind, the show element in the Celtic Woman performances distracts too much from the music. A lot of people seem to like it that way, though.
Arkybark I don't find it distracting at all. Celtic Woman is the best female ensemble.
Really? I find their performances greatly enhance the songs.
Tho it does depend on the singers. These two are among the best of all the lineups.
I think it would have sounded better without the choir
SCOTTISH CLASSIC BY ROBERT BURNS 1783,......... NOT IRISH!!
This is male viewpointed? I always thought that it was mother's thinking about daughters
Yup. From Robert Burns. Well known for spending time among the lassies.
I wish Chloe had left her hair alone
I respect the singers and musicians but to me this is the most saccharine soulless version of this song i have ever heard, Disney shite. Celtic Woman is music for your granny.
+Terry Blanton Terry, I'm with you. No wonder I love it, I am also a Granny. I'm 80 years old !!
heres johnny you're wrong. It's beautiful! And I am far from old.
very nice song and good interpretations... but boy, does it get any cornier than this?!? :/
I have to admit....I love 'cornie'. God Bless. MH.
+Das Piano I don't see corney. I only see and hear beautiful.
Das Piano not corny at all!
I think they kind of over sung this classic. Much prefer Altans version
Müll.
this is the gayest song i've ever heard thank you
awful.
twee.
Nyght Owl not at all; it's beautiful!
What on Earth is twee?
