🥰 As I was listening to this song I was looking out my back window facing the hills and wilderness. The sky. Beautiful. Your voice is angelic.

It made me think of wild horses running, then you sang about them. It also made me very emotional. Thanks Lots of love ❤️ sent your way.

Gorgeous. Felt this deeply - lost two grandparents this year and this sounds like how I feel. Thank you.

Hauntingly emotional... My favourite line in the early segment, that hasn't made the cut (yet) in both words and melody was around the 2:15 point - the chromatic descending start for the line of "There's a river that flows through me"

I really enjoyed listening to this!! The beginning too! I don't have the words to describe it well but the emotions feel so powerful and I just enjoyed sitting listening

Kristen Estes

Love the whole 8:23 Stopped me in my tracks the first listen with the intensity of emotions you’re pouring into this At times it reminds me of Amhrán Mhuínse, and at other times of Anach Cuain for some reason, this would definitely be well suited to be bilingual

Pictures of wind sweeping over the shoals of herring, standing by gravestones. With a look of hope and a tear in your eye

Sometimes the best stuff comes from the exploration... I love this in its entirety! - Also after hearing this, I am certain you can do anything Lara Fabian is doing, including Adagio. Just saying... you have the range she does.

Improvisation works this song was good.

Laura Bone

This is gorgeous, and I love the material before the 4 minute mark as well. You have such a beautiful voice and I am in awe that you can improvise melodies and soulful lyrics like this! I'm sorry to hear about your grandmother, and I hope this has helped you to work through some things.

Is that a hurdy-gurdy in the background?

Wait, this was entirely improvved? Like, from scratch at that moment?!? You never cease to amaze me. Don't throw away the stuff before the 4 minute mark -- that stuff is good too. I can hear the Irish influence in there, but something about this sounds much more Appalachian/Americana to me. Which I suppose fits the setting and your ancestry path, now that I think about it. ;-)
