Irish singer-songwriter Paul Caldwell has the ability to seamlessly blend the soul of traditional Irish ballads with the nuance of Canadian folk. He grew up with Celtic music echoing through the rugged coastline in his hometown of Buncrana, and these traditional Irish tunes have reverberated deep into his soul. Caldwell spent a period of his life in Liverpool, before settling in Vancouver when he was 25. Although he feels a strong bond with Canada, he has always carried a piece of home and a piece of Liverpool with him.
Paul's latest EP “Headlines” is a deeply emotional record, subtly evoking nostalgia, heartache and hope. Throughout 2020/21, he released the first three singles from the record. The EP has amassed an impressive 420,000 streams on Spotify and received radio play on CBC, Dublin City FM and Blues and Roots Radio.
On May 3rd, 2023, Paul will release his new single“Love Remains"...
Most artists I've seen do this song try to make it overly complex, and for me that ruins it. Paul Caldwell does a great version of the song. It is a simple, but beautiful. An aching, melancholy memory of one that has passed, and that's how this song should be done.
Damn!⛈ A brilliant, passionate, tragic take on a beautiful song. If I am ever lucky enough to be in the same city as Paul Caldwell when he is performing, I'm there. I will add that I appreciate the great musicianship of the band, as well as the acting.
Just checking-in again so you know this amazing song remains a much-loved part of my favourites list, and is listened to regularly. Wonderful rendition. Is that Jonnie Walker Red Label you're drinking, by the way? Good choice. Much love from Belfast xx C
It is unfortunate that you interpreted this song in such a dark way. That is something you should take to prayer. The darkness is in you not in the song. The groaning sound comes from what a pure bred feels when he is passionate about some thing. He feels it, as if it were pulling on his bones. It gives to him not takes away.
Wow 🤩 I came across you and this video by accident. I was looking for cover versions that are pure, deep, fragile.. And found this one. Touched from the first second, pressed the follow button from the second and then just enjoy. 🥰 Your voice is male, experienced, shaped, broken and got up again. for this love Very well done, thank you. I'm looking forward to your other songs.
So few people find true love........but the love that Jesus has for each of us is beyond measure and makes up for our loss on earth! Whosoever will call upon the name of the Lord shalt be saved!
Great tune and mostly a good cover - just way too much wailing at the close... you get to that point where it just comes across as musical masterbation
Je vais de découverte en découverte avec cette chanson (que je trouve sublime) mais cette interprétation surpasse pour moi celle de Christy Moore et celle de Gaelic storm qui sont extrêmement belles. Félicitations à Paul et à ses musicos. Merci!
Only heard of this song a few weeks ago. I've listened to several versions before I came across this one. This one is tops. You've captured the Celtic haunts and the sounds of the isles. I was literally swept away. But, I did not like the ending. Suicide is cowardice and I don't think his love would have wanted him to cause pain to his family and friends. That's my opinion. But, the song is amazing!
Similar experience, I heard this song on the radio a few months ago for the first time and Ive been trying to find that particular version, but this was really good, passionate, the emotions building, and I’m like you I don’t like the ending, but I don’t think it’s cowardly, it’s just so sad, and there’s good still to do
