The news of Meav's departure from Celtic Woman reminded me fo this song (see link) http://www.sing365.com/music/lyric.nsf/Into-The-West-lyrics-Annie-Lennox/429DFAB0CA2CFCFB48256E2700178396One note of caution, No I do not believe the magic of Celtic Woman is leaving like it did in Middle Earth, it's just changing and we know not yet its power. I eagerly await my experiences with this new magic like a sorceror finding a new spell to play with! (yup I am still a geek.) I will miss Meav as she was one of the original 5. But may she catch the dream she is now chasing, and once again God bless her for keeping her family a priority! (speaking from experience with a member of my own who is not.) |

I am bringing a fan to their first show and now that Meav (her favorite) won't be their it won't be a true experience. She will understand though.

 I love Meav, but Celtic Woman is more than just Meav. The touring had to be hard on her and her family, even sharing the touring time with Haley. I will miss her beautiful voice, but Celtic Woman will go on. Meav goes with my best wishes and endearing love. I look forward to the return of the New Journey Tour here in October.

I just read Meav's note, which I received via an e-mail from her Web site. While she will be missed, I applaud Meav for pursuing her dream and thank her for a wonderful time. The CW: ANJ concert in Boston on June 8, 2007 is a memory my older son and I will treasure for the rest of our lives.
Thank you, Meav.
Warm regards,
FireGuyFrank

I'm sorry, but every time I see the words "Méav is leaving..." in my head, I automatically finish it with "on a jet plane!" "...but don't worry 'cause she'll be back again!"  |

I'm new to this news. (Don't know how I missed it so far since I've been here a few times over the weekend). I am certainly sad but not entirely surprised. Meav's always been a great mom as well as a great CW and I wouldn't have her any other way. If she thinks this is her best choice, I trust her.
As others have said, it's also an exciting opportunity for Meav to do something new musically. And CW will be fine. It's always been a group concept and brand (like Riverdance) and we'll probably see more personnel changes over the years as the ladies grow personally and as wonderful new talent comes along.
And this is a fantastic opportunity for Lynn! If Meav hadn't decided to leave many of us wouldn't have ever known Lynn. So now, God gets to bless us with her voice, too. Yes, in the back of our minds we'll make comparisons on some signature Meav songs. But she'll also bring HER solo numbers that no one else could do just the same.
Although it's a bit sad and uncertain right now, years from now we may look back and not be able to imagine any better outcome.
