It doesn't mean anything. It's just random mouth music.

If you can go to youtube and type Celtic Woman Newgrange, you can pick a video of it to listen to the full version.

Mouth music started out as a substitute for instruments.
When I was a little girl, I remember farmers gathering in my aunt's farmhouse after work. They would have an impromptu séisiún of singing and reciting poetry. Much of it was patriotic, or sad songs of exile. If nobody brought any instruments they would provide rhythm and accompaniment by making musical noises.........."mouth music".
Whenever musical instruments were neither available nor affordable, they invented ways to provide the backing.......spoons, whistles made from reeds etc.
You may have noticed Ray Fean plays the spoons in ANJ.

If anyone has my r_ropes@bellsouth.net email address saved, you can delete it. I got tired of subsidizing AT&T.

If he does toss the spoons over his shoulder when done, those spoons better end up in the dishwasher! I'm not picking up after him!
