What's your favorite version of "The Voice?" Mine has to be Lisa's.

I've had a tough choice, though I think the duet mashup is great.

Alex got the vote because of all of them her's is my Favorite! I really was going to vote for Lynn though, that was the Best CW Anniversary tribute she made that song just the same way she did Scarborough Fair so Loving to the core of presenting Celtic Woman infact this rendition you could feel the heart as more than Lisa K to me. xxx

I voted for Méav, because her voice and style is the closest to Eimear Quinn's. I think I would equally love Lynn's version, but I never had a chance to hear it.

Went for Meav as well. Cheesy

And not just because I'm a bit biased ( which I am ) Roll Eyes

But Excaliber made an excellent point. Eimear Quinn ( the one who 1st sang "The Voice" (written by Brendan Graham) and Meav closely resemble each other in this song. Eimear won Eurovision for Ireland about 20 years ago. Interesting to note... Meav ,Eimear , Katie McMahon (of Riverdance fame, Deirdre Gilsanen, Roisin Dempsey ( Meav's good friend and former flat mate, and another fine soprano Lucy Champion, were all in Anuna together at one point. What an awesome soprano section it was at that time ! Shocked

Here is the performance that won Eimear the contest for Ireland ... https://youtu.be/TpdRtIM45ts Another note of interest ... Eimear's violin accompanist appears to be none other than Cora Smith - the "other violinist" opposite our very own Mairead Nesbitt in Michael Flatley's "Feet Of Flames" section of :Lord of The Dance".

Usually similarly on such songs such as The Last Rose of Summer, Meav on The Voice is Grand & Operatic whereas instead Lynn was more Story telling & Pure I was surprised how close to Lisa Kelly her rendition was towards but more beautifying. She beat Alex to forerunner Lisa K as a forerunner sure. Wink
