Hey, pals, come in closer. Here's a secret to question you:

*whispers in ears* Are some of the Celtic Woman songs pop songs?

*medium tone* Say your own answers softly. Wink

I'll keep my voice low  Wink

Yes, some of their songs are, in fact, pop songs. "You Raise Me Up" is an example, and I believe "Sing Out!" and possibly even "Walking in the Air" are pop songs as well.

It's kind of funny, since when I think of "pop," Justin Timberlake and others come to mind. It's nice to know there's some decency among the pop-singing people of today!

Well the thing is, the once clear distinctions between different music have sort of been lowered. I mean, some can clearly still be classified in a pigeon-hole. No hip-hop song will ever be confused with country or opera. But more and more songs and artists are 'cross-overs'. For example, Shania Twain and Faith Hill are country, but also pop. Amy Grant was Christian, but also eneded up pop. And Hayley, well, she is Christian, Pop, Opera, Classical, Easy-Listening, Retro. She is everything but Hip-hop or country. Give the girl time though, she is only 20. She will eventually do it all. (well maybe not hip-hop. Hayley hip-hop may just not work "Yo Yo Yo...H-West in da HOUZ" ? NNNNNNo!)

Heaven forbid that any of the songs be "popular". he he he

Consider this: Simon and Garfunkle covered "Scarborough Fair" some 30 years ago and turned a "traditional song" into a "popular song."

Some people agree that the song "Shooting Star" is timidly a pop song and some of them know its  a different kind of genre of this song. Things I sometimes say are just a deep secret, you know. Wink

I like it when they avoid the pop and sing the traditional Irish songs.
