I hear your voice on the wind
And I hear you call out my name“Listen my child,” you say to me,
“I am the voice of your history.
Be not afraid, come follow me.
Answer my call, and I’ll set you free.”I am the voice in the wind and the pouring rain
I am the voice of your hunger and pain
I am the voice that always is calling you
I am the voice; I will remainI am the voice in the fields when the summer’s gone,
The dance of the leaves when the autumn winds blow.
Ne’er do I sleep throughout all the cold winter long;
I am the force that in springtime will grow.I am the voice of the past that will always be
Filled with my sorrow and blood in my fields.
I am the voice of the future. Bring me your peace.
Bring me your peace, and my wounds they will heal.I am the voice in the wind and the pouring rain;
I am the voice of your hunger and pain.
I am the voice that always is calling you.
I am the voice.I am the voice of the past that will always be;
I am the voice of your hunger and pain.
I am the voice of the future.
I am the voice.I am the voice.
I am the voice.
I am the voice.

The lyrics read like one of Dougie MacLean’s songs.
I updated the “Music” tag somewhat to include older songs – and updated some dead links to videos within that.

Songs like this have a strong impact on listeners. Celtic Woman puts on a high quality, professional show. My only complaint against them is the skimpy clothing.
Dougie MacLean of course has even established MacLean’s Real Music Bar as a meeting place for Scottish bands. However, he’s since sold that.
I wish Southern and more broadly American nationalism were this vibrant and alive today.

The group’s lead singer, Chloe Agnew (not the brunette shown in this video) is stunning — blonde hair, blue eyes, gentle features, a true North European beauty.
She also sings with a soft, feminine voice — and that, above all, is what the cultural-Marxist media, controlled by the hostile anti-white elite, suppresses: embodiments of true, traditional femininity.

“Galway Bay” classic by Chloe Agnew. It’s pretty much the equivalent of The Band’s “The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down“. Somehow though “Galway” is seen as more acceptable, which is excellent
” Yet the strangers came and tried to teach us their ways
And they scorned us just for bein’ what we are
But they might as well go chasin’ after moonbeams
Or light a penny candle from a star.
And if there is going to be a life hereafter
And faith, somehow I’m sure there’s going to be
I will ask my God to let me make my heaven
In that dear land across the Irish sea.”

A pretty song by Chloe is Walking in the Air. I hadn’t realised she’s the lead singer. The whole lot is talented.
Anyway music is certainly a component to a renewal of the West.

Órla Fallon’s “Ghile Mear” on her CD My Land.
She’s gone solo after leaving Celtic Woman according to wiki. She’s singing a language that was nearly dead, haha – Irish/Gaelic!
That to me is just huge. There’s not much difference between Ireland and Norway. A Celtic revival is pretty much a Nordic revival, as you say with Chloe’s features. If only the English and Celts could be brought to a cultural ceasefire: divided-and-conquered…

We’ve been able to see Celtic Woman live in concert three times over the past few years. They are magnificent. Typically, when they do their a capella rendition of “Danny Boy,” there’s nary a dry eye in the house.
They represent what is best about our Western traditions, at least for us Anglo-Celts. They’re lovely, sweet, talented, and simply wonderful. True, their gowns are a wee bit revealing sometimes, but in an “old-fashioned” sort of way, not in the more typical modern mode. At least they don’t look like cheap harlots.

Augustinian,
I would love to hear that version of Danny Boy. Remember Judith Durham of The Seekers? (Georgy Girl) Her rendition of that classic always gets me misty-eyed:

Thanks, I will listen to that, though most of the music I listen to comes from local radio.
I especially like the movie page.

Ancestoral music has a way of hiding in the soul until awakened. Celtic Women always confirm the beauty of song in the west.
