Ed Sheeran: Live from the Artists Den - 'The Parting Glass (Irish Traditional)'

[BladedWarrior]

"In a world without gold, we might have been heroes..."
- Edward Thatch

[richmontagna]

As an old man sometimes thinking about all the loved ones you have said goodbye to gets overwhelming. This song sums it up.

[Atrasimi]

That pure silence while he’s singing... not just the mark of a talented artist, but a powerful choice and a connected, respective audience. Captivating all the way around

[MarfLoog]

A friend of me died way before his time, we played this at his funeral. It was pouring badly. Heaven was crying too. . . Had a shelter, and a bonfire going.
A pinboard where everybody left a picture of him his for his 2 year old daughter and a 16 year old Lagavulin Whisky pass around. . . I miss you badly Jan!

[Dracorientalis]

We Irish love to sing/play this song but it's actual we have our brother and sister Gaels in Scotland to thank for it! Go raibh maith agat/Taphadh leat don an ceol iontach sin, Gealach na hAlba!

[dancoira]

He had that audience from the very start of those lyrics...you could hear a pin drop amongst those people...Ed Sheeran is and always will be one of the greatest artists to bless this planet

It’s crazy how this has been viewed a million times and yet it’s only been “liked” 9.5 thousand times.
This song and message is beautiful.

[AO.]

He performed this at one of his concerts I was at and oh wow! The acoustics were just amazing, the room was silent in mesmerisation. Amazing!

[michaelfinlay]

My brother sang 'The Parting Glass' at our mothers' funeral.

[ChefBarb]

LOVE HEARING HIM DO HIS IRISH AND SO BEUTIFULLY DONE💚💚

[zachhaines]

What was beautiful about this performance was the audience. They listened to the message being sung, and they respected and beautiful and traditional song. It's a nice change from girls screaming when they hear a high note.

[sarahsupasweet]

This still makes me so happy to see. You don't see songs like these done very often on any big platforms aside from artists like Celtic Woman, who in my opinion don't get half the recognition they deserve. I absolutely love Ed!

[kimnapier]

This song speaks to my heart and blessings to Ed for bringing it ❣️.

[iangraham]

You got it wrong - It's a traditional Scottish song. Was the most popular song in Scotland before Robert Burns came along and wrote Auld Lang Syne. But yes, it's sung in Ireland as well.

[roxqt]

I'm so happy that this song would be a part of his album

[FIONAful]

Heart wrenching. Sending this home to Ireland to my Mammy who has lost too many too last few years have been unbearable, but we who remain behind always send them a "Parting Glass". 💚

[chicknthesticks]

That was one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard.

[russellburns]

This guy respected a beautiful song of sentiment, with a beautiful voice!!

[marclaky]

Man sings with all his soul even though he can't possess a soul, us gingers can't have em.
