hmmm... It was Christmas Break this year, I was sitting at my desk drawing and munching a sandwich when my brother called me over to see a "really cool song". I was naturally skeptical (hey, it's my 19 year old brother who likes Skillet and Apocolyptica!) So I went over and sat down, and he clicked "play" and.... BAM!!!!!!!!! I WAS HIT WITH THE INCREDIBLE VOICE OF LISA KELLY!!!!!!!!!  She was singing "The Voice" and TOTALLY got me hooked, especially by the last note, I think I gasped after she finished LOL!!!  So of course I HAD to find out more and went on a complete CW splurge, and kept TALKING AND TALKING AND TALKING my friends' ears off about this amazing group I had found!! |

I was flipping tv channels and found something interesting on PBS. The song was Mo Ghile Mear. This was December 2006 and I was hooked!

I was looking for You Raise me up. At first I just recognized the version of Westlife. Then after a week I looked again and I found C.W. ´s Version. I was so impressed by the girls and their voices. Since then I am a huge fan . I love you CW  <3 |

How did I discover C.W.? One word: "APPENDICITIS". In November of 2008, my folks were visiting just prior to Thanksgiving (U.S.) and I was going to take everyone out to dinner. However, the day I was supposed to do this, I went into the doctor's office with some abdominal pain, only to be sent quickly over to the hospital for immediate appendectomy surgery! This kind of ruined things, as while the family visited me, it was in my hospital room and not at dinner. Things were a little dicey with my recovery, and I spent three days in the hospital. I then was sent home to rest with orders to do *nothing* for several days (mostly "lived" in a recliner in the living room). On the Sunday night when my folks left for their home in Arkansas, I was kind of feeling down and just doing some channel surfing on TV. I hit the local PBS station and stopped abruptly. Yes, you guessed it, Celtic Woman was on, although for quite some time, I had no idea who was performing. I just sat there in the recliner, kind of stunned at what I saw and heard, but for some reason, I couldn't make heads or tails of the logo seen on the TV screen announcing who they were! It must have been the pain that befuddled my mind, but eventually during one of the "pledge breaks", I hobbled into the computer room and brought up the local PBS TV schedule. Finally, I could read the words "Celtic Woman" (mostly the stuff from Greatest Journey), so I spent some time doing a little more research. The more I head of them, the better they sounded, so once I could drive again after a week or so, I got up to Barnes and Noble and got "Greatest Journey" and the original 1st Celtic Woman album, followed by the DVDs. Not quite a year later, I got to see my first CW concert at Washington Pavilion (Sioux Falls, South Dakota, a GREAT venue BTW). Now, I am impatiently waiting for their August 5th performance at the Independence Event Center!

March, 2006, was channel surfing one night and landed on PBS. I heard several songs, got bored and switched channels. Came back around a few minutes later, saw this gorgeous lady named Lisa singing a song called "Send Me a Song." I fell in love with the voice and the song and oh, I'm extremely fond of the lady as well! |

This is what happened to me too! I don't remember what song it was or anything but I was absolutely amazed by them the first time I heard them. |

5 years ago I saw Celtic Woman on the DVD shelf. I was curious because I never heard of them, so I bought it and I was glad I did.

Another old thread. I first saw them on PBS in late 2006. It was the New Journey concert from Slane Castle.

Strange I should find this old thread, ‘cuz I first became a fan of CW watching the Helix show on PBS, and I was just watching the old DVD tonight before reading this.

You Tube, I was browsing you tube looking for a song and I found a video of PS22 and CW was singing with them, Back when Alex and Lynn was in the group, and I was immediately hooked. Then I started watching all the CW video's I could find.
