I suppose this explains itself! My favourites are Mná Na hÉireann (Women Of Ireland), Ae Fond Kiss, and Long Journey Home.

I think this was the most difficult top 3 favourite songs poll I've had to complete.

I re-listened to the album tonight and realized that I love almost all the songs equally for different reasons. Every song had something special.

I decided to go with Garden of Eden, Homeland, Long Journey Home.

I wasn't going to pick Garden of Eden because there were sooooo many other good ones to choose from, but it's soooo fun and the backing instrumentals are extremely effective!

I went with Homeland because it's catchy, I love the way they used the harmony and because it's really fun to sing along. Long Journey Home affected me quite a bit during both the Homecoming Tour and the Ancient Land DVD recording. The combination of the melody, the lyrics, the harmony and the ending was a perfect storm of beauty.

"Follow Me" is definitely my favorite. Méav has done it again! It's so catchy!

The choices I've seen for favourite song have been all over the place, both on the forums and on social media. Follow Me, Mná Na hÉireann (Women Of Ireland), Long Journey Home, and Garden of Eden are definitely getting a lot of attention, but almost every song on the album has been mentioned as a favourite somewhere.

Kimberly, it's called "Ballroom of Romance" and it has also been performed on the Homecoming tour. The melody is based on Spanish Lady, but the lyrics are different. It's a very nice song!

 And it is also 1 of 2 songs that Meav and Gavin had a hand in too.  Smiley

I always find it how can we pick 3 from favorite songs we known vs favorites from new songs.

Example
I call these still Homecoming Favorites
Homeland, Ballroom of Romance, Going Home

Ancient Land Favorites
Follow Me, Faith Song, Mná Na hÉireann (Women Of Ireland)

Also not included Somewhere Over the Rainbow & Suil a Run new versions!
