I wanted to play May It Be from Lord of the Rings and came across Lisa Kelly by accident. Best accident of my life.  |

I was flipping through channels one day in 2005 when I first saw Órlagh followed by a clip of her, Lisa, and Meav singing Orinoco Flow. I'd been working really hard to find some good music out of Ireland that wasn't gumpf and voilà! I had my girls. Been a fan ever since. First concert was in 2007, and I've seen them every year since 2012 (as a matter of fact, I'm seeing them in Portland tomorrow night!)

It'll be a great show. Enjoy! |

I can't understand the first time it aired on TV that my mom pointed me to them. She watched the Helix special, I on the other hand glanced a bit but I was focused on something else as like it wasn't a big deal. Then later on it was all over Borders I would listen to the songs on the headsets! I purchased the DVD for Christmas. Once a sequel A New Journey came on the bedroom TV Sky The Dawn & The Sun. I was Hooked till then. First concert 2006 lucky enough to have Meav at my show instead of Hayley being that I got to watch the original group before then on Lynn, Alex, Lisa L, Susan, Mairead C, now Eabha (2017)! I am now a Celtic Woman super fan way more than my mommy! |

I wanted to play May It Be from Lord of the Rings and came across Lisa Kelly by accident. Best accident of my life. For the longest time, I couldn't remember when I had first heard it. Today, (through some clever detective work if I do say so), I discovered it was in 2007 near the end of August. Actually a couple of years later than I thought it was. I saw the promos for the original Helix special, but I missed it.  Celtic Woman didn't change my life right away (I wish it had). But after many, MANY years of missed concerts and PBS specials, and all the intervening years of struggles, they made me happy when it didn't look like anything would. I'm so grateful I heard that song almost 10 years ago. If I hadn't have heard it, I probably never would have tuned in to Celtic Woman and fallen in love with them years later and I certainly wouldn't be as happy as I am today. |

It all started when I got this video game called "Lara Croft Tomb Raider: Legend" around the year 2008. I've always loved the main theme of this game. Years later in 2012, I decided to look up the main theme. It was a song called "Ailein Duinn" with another song called "Ave Maria" in the chorus. It was said that an Irish singer named Méav sang it (I found out that she did NOT sing the theme later on.) So I looked up 'Méav - Ailein Duinn' on YouTube. Loved it. Decided to do more research on her. Found out about CW. Listened to "You Raise Me Up" (SFTH version specifically), then "The Call". That's when I became CWazy. Probably one of the most weirdest and complicated discoveries of CW. The end result was wonderful and is what matters in the end.  |
