I was just wondering what song you would all like to hear Celtic Woman do a cover of? I'm sure there's millions of beautiful songs out there that they could turn into even better pieces. I personally would like to hear them do a cover of Annie Lennox's "Into the West" from The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King. I'm obsessed with The Lord of the Rings and LOVE Lisa Kelly's cover of Enya's "May It Be". I don't know if they'd have some legal problems in covering it or not, though. It won an Academy Award and I don't know the legal issues behind that kinda stuff. Anyway, I was just wondering what you all thought about song possibilities.

God Bless!!

I've mentioned this on other threads.  One I would love to hear them do is "Bridge Over Trouble Water", specifically as a duet between Lisa and Chloë.

Steph, "Into the West" would be fantastic. I could see that more as an Orlagh song though.

A song by the Band Jet, called "Shine On"
and, have to say it, but "For Good" from Wicked...OH! or "Defying Gravity"!!
Defying Gravity is for sure a Lisa song!! For Good would be really good for all of them actually!!  Grin Grin

I could actually see Chloe singing "Defying Gravity" but yes, "For Good" would be stupendous for all of them. Smiley

How about "Sing" (the Carpenters hit from the 1970's)?

Yeah, I could definately hear her singing it! But I wouldn't really care, as long as it got done, haha!!

Here was my original list:

http://www.celticwomanforum.com/index.php?topic=257.0

I'm delighted that one of those suggestions has been taken up (Webber's "Pie Jesu").

By far I love it best when Chloe and CW perform classical songs.

Running a close second, I also adore their distinctively Celtic number, particularly those sung in Gaelic. If I knew more Irish folk songs, I'd make suggestions from that genre.

By the way, Vanity, nice avatar.

Haha, speaking of...
The first time I ever heard that song, when Annie Lennox sings the line, "What can you see on the horizon? Why do the white gulls call?," and whatnot, I seriously thought she sang, "Why do the white girls call?". I was like, what in the world was that about? lol! Cheesy

Oh, and thanks Celeste, for the compliment! I loves me some Chloë!! Wink

I'm glad you mentioned this! I'm kind of on the fence about this one, though. For the past couple of days I've been thinking about how much I'd LOVE to hear Celtic Woman's rendition of Céline Dion's "My Heart Will Go On". However, being a die-hard Celine Dion fan since forever practically, lol, I don't know if I can hear anyone else singing it but her. I know it would be amazing, and there's no doubt I'd love it, but I'm SO in love with both Celtic Woman and Céline Dion that I think I'd find myself fighting a battle in my head of who's better, lol.

Oh yes! I like this one. I'd want to hear Chloe sing "Yesterday". That would be beautiful, and Lisa sing "Let It Be". Lynn could handle "Lady Madonna".
