I thought this was cool.  Someone posted it on Youtube and has the Clannad version and the Meav version.  Clannad released their album  "Dulaman" in 1976.  I love both versions!

P.S. And reading the comments below on Youtube...the Clannad fans liked the Clannad version better and the CW fans liked the CW version better.

As it should be  :D

There is an all-men version that I rather like. It's completely different from Méav's rendition; it's not even the slightest bit flirty. It's so intense, you'd think they were going to war or something! I definitely like Méav's version the best, but I like listening to other versions to compare them.

I saw that! It was cool.  I like both versions!

some harsh comments about cw there.......

Yeah, for whatever reason, the youtube community feels the need to be disrespectful towards the videos and/or each other. Personally, I have no idea why they do this, but its really immature and annoying. Maybe they get a thrill out of knowing they can string a few expletives together...  ::)

I just ignore the stupid comments, especially regarding Celtic Woman. Anyone who deliberately speaks badly of them probably isn't worth talking to. I don't have a problem with people who can say they dislike something respectfully, but when they just make rude remarks, it bothers me.

Besides... those people just don't know what they're missing!  ;)

How do you feel about Hayley singing Dulaman?

I only saw a clip of it on Youtube and it was nice.  I'm adding another version by Altan.  I love them all BUT in my opinion   MEAV IS THE QUEEN OF DULAMAN!

Atlan's version of Dulaman

Guess who was Clannads drummer for a time..............Ray Fean.

they also posted a Newgrange comparission http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sBxJsHD9nFM

Very cool.  Ciaran and Pol Brennan of Clannad wrote Newgrange.

She must've known that it must be a giga hit to me. ;)

didn't they write Harry's Game as well?

Sure did,  Rose.

Wanna know something? Clannad is the brother of Enya and has also made the song called "Newgrange". True? ;)

that was a cool video!! i like both versions

Well, close... of Clannad's 5 members,  Ciaran & Pol are Enya's brothers, Moya is Enya's sister, and Noel & Padraig are Enya's uncles. ;)

Hasta luego,
Kimberly

Loved all the videos, thanks for the links. As to the negative comments. There are some people in this world who feel that bad-mouthing something makes them seem smart. These are sad,little people who usually have little to no knowledge of the things they are busting on. In some ways I feel sorry for them since that attitude causes them to miss out on some truly great things. In this case Out wonderful ladies! 

I saw on one of the youtube comments that it is rare to see ENYA with long hair. :o I new someone on here would know if the gal was ENYA and I wasn't disappointedto see on the thread all of the members were named.

Thanks Kimberly

Enya sang with Clannad before she went off on her own with Clannad's former managers Nicki and Roma Ryan.  If you can, listen to a song called An Tull by Clannad and hear Enya singing without all the overlays, and additions.  She sounds quite wonderful alone.  I have a huge crush on Enya's older brother Ciaran, that's why I know so much abou them, LOL.
