St. Patrick’s Day was yesterday which was the main theme for this week’s Monday Music Loves Me and I did wear a little green to mark the event. I have zero Irish in me but, apparently, my name is Celtic! I had always thought it was a Viking name that made its way to Germany and Austria, but it seems it it an old Celtic name which makes sense they went everywhere. Anyways, here are my 3 picks that I thought of when I saw the theme.
1. FAIRYTALE SUNG BY ENYA-1987
I love Enya and this is a song based on old Irish fairy tales and I love Fairytales. I think this is a beautiful song.
2. ISLE OF INNISFREE SUNG BY THE CELTIC WOMEN-2011
I thought of these women right away who are hugely successful around the globe and this song is perfect since it features so much in the film, “ The Quiet Man.”
3. LORD OF THE DANCE WITH MICHAEL FLATLEY-1996
My hubby, way before I met him, had the chance to see this in the theatre and thought it was the best thing he had ever seen. He bought the CD which he still owns. I watched it on TV and wished I could have seen it for real. My hubby was lucky! How do those dancers move their feet so fast..it looks impossible to do.
Which songs come to mind that makes you think Irish?
