Best rendition I ever heard of this song, I really wish Iarla would do an actual recording of this song, he was born to sing it and it suits him down to the ground

[gerodriscoll]

Iarla has to have one of the purest voices ever with beautiful accompaniment by the one and only me Steve Cooney. Our language is beautiful made all the more melodic by this song and Iarl’s singing. Sar cheoil!

Congratulations.!
Magnificent song that sounds wonderful in Irish.
We sing it in Basque, the only Paleo-Arctic language in Europe still alive.

A magnificent Irish song by two of the most amazing artists. ☘️

An ceann is fearr ar YouTube. Tá an Gaeilge a tá sé ag canadh go hálainn ar fad...The pronouncations, phrasings, timing and guitar backing are outstanding..Is cuimhin liom ag éisteacht leis on amhrán seo caoga blian ó shin agus Séamus Mac Mathúna as contae an Clár a chanadh.

This man has one of the most beautiful voices I ever had the honour to hear. I've heard his version of Mo ghile mear a few years ago. Today I accidentally came across this video and I'm really not disappointed. What a gift! God bless you, Mr Ó Lionáird for sharing it with the World.

His voice reminds me of the street singers from when l was a child here in Ireland Awesome!

My goodness, I’m sitting here in San Francisco during the Pandemic (as Dún Dealgan) and trying to learn the lyrics to Sé Mo Laoch, I was doing all right until I listened to Liarla and Steve, my God, absolutely brilliant. I think I won’t bother.

[annagoretti]

Just so heart warming and beautiful God bless you

Saw Iarla Ó Lionáird live last night in Newbridge Co Kildare in Riverbank Theatre performing with Cormac McCarthy & Matthew Berrill. Stunning performance & fabulous evening. Finished off by singing Casadh An Tsúgáin. Stellar.

These two men pour beauty into their musical talents what a God given gift

I fell in love with his voice when I went to see the movie Brooklyn. There wasn't a dry eye in the theatre. Tá an t-amhrán seo á chanadh go hálainn agat freisin. Go raibh míle maith agat tú féin.
