Yep. It is Mairead. On the cd insert it says something like "vocals on track X - Mairead Nesbitt". Or something similer, I don't have my case on hand.

Yeah, it is Máiréad. Very interesting and very traditional song.

We have had several questions about Máiréad's song on the Forum.
In July and October 2007 I posted explanations of it.
It is a traditional lament, with a deep meaning.
Here's the location of one of the posts:

You can see Mairead singing during Sing Out on the Slane DVD. So, she does enjoy it!

yeah and i think its funny that the only time in concert she ever says anything is in ACC when she says, in a very sultry voice, "Let it snow" at the end of the number
