Same

I also met her & spoke to her after a gig in Dublin. I don't have the words to express the impression she left on me❤

@@roibeardcoughlan9290 had been lucky enough to share some tunes with the guys from Lankum. After playing and singing some beautiful tunes, She was the one that asked me if I could play something on my flute. Quite an unforgettable moment

me too about 4month ago and i asked myself why haven't I heard of these band or radie peat before because they are absolutely brilliant .

Cool

!

It took some scrolling to find a comment that mentioned this being "terrifying", but I very much agree. You could say its sad or mornful too, but that wouldnt be enough. Theres an element of the supernatural in how this sounds, and its not the Disney kind. Im well aware of what the subject of the lyrics is, but when put with this harmonium and way of singing, its almost as if its a communication from the next world, from victims of violent cirumstances beyond their control, hysterically wrathful in their grief, eternally restless in their abject lament. The only thing that comes close for me is the metal band Bell Witch, who deal a lot with ghosts in their lyrics. Their music doesnt generally have the same sense of WRATH as this does though, its more concerned with the sadness and sombreness involved in loss. Ive never heard anything like this. Nothing has instilled in me the feeling of being on the recieving end of a ghostly victim's otherworldly lament the way this has. Easily one of the most powerful things I have ever heard, full stop.

@@willterhart6767 I completely agree about the supernatural aspect. I always felt that Stairway to Heaven had utilized some otherworldly power too. Radie seems to have a gift for tapping into long gone thoughts and feelings doesn't she?

@@willterhart6767 Caoineadh. Respect.

Yup. I was thinking of Liam Weldon, listening to this. Pat

A demons voice.... one to eat one whole and love sí

Is that Katie Kim there too?

Wigon! Thank you. These other countries you speak of.. it would be a DREAM to chase this sound across the globe. That is my ultimate ambition. I just don't know how to make it happen.

If anyone can make this dream happen, you can. All you need to do is hook up with like-minded ethno-musicologists (a sub-set of anthropology) and let the grants come flowing in. They do the grant writing and provide the cultural expertise, while you provide the technical know-how, production experience, and equipment. It's definitely possible and the quality of you and your team's work, in my opinion, is beyond reproach. It is as good as any pro-level videotography and sound work that I've seen. You have a knack for catching intimate moments of genuine human emotion that I think will translate well in many different cultures during your travels. To start off with, I would recommend that you perhaps team up with America's NPR (National Public Radio) if the BBC or some other similar media organization doesn't sponsor you. Trust me, you and your team absolutely have the talent and expertise to move on to the next level. It's just a matter of marketing yourselves to the right sponsors who can make it happen without having to compromise your vision.

And Tuva, where throat singing comes from. Overtone singing while droning.

Now that you say it... thats an impressive absence. Respect.

Oh gosh! Well. They must have been having a really bad day.

That's because most free staters are only interested in themselves your looking in the wrong part of Ireland

Thank you. I know what you mean. I'm American (1/2 Irish descent). I get tired of that cutsey "Irish" stuff too. A few pretty young women all dolled up in some fancy evening gowns of different colors; there's a blonde, a readhead, a brunette, and one with black hair. Yeah ! One of each..............They remind me more of Disney princesses. You know, I always liked the sound of Sinead O'Connor as well. That sort of sadness or desperation in her voice. I know she's absolutely bat sh*t crazy and probably horrible to deal with in person, but she still is one of my favorite Irish female VOICES.

Jonathan Hatch to me it’s the music I heard from my Irish relatives

She's brilliant.

yep, hauntingly non-cute. Now that is rebellion.

not so sure about that.

Cheers Adam. Yes indeed is myself and Donal Dineen. We take roughly 4/5 stills per second of an overhead projection. Pleased u like!

It's called a harmonium. I think it suits her spirit.

No. Nothing like Nico apart from Nico sings in a low register. Not comparable.

This is a song about political corruption.

I mean I suppose it's one response to problems in Ireland. Just feck off to Australia. People tried that for a while. But maybe there's another way of doing things? Like holding people accountable? Changing laws that are patently wrong? Seems to have been working recently anyway.

I don't understand this comment. The song is about rebellion not emigration. And a good song at that, thanks to Radie.

The Unthanks are great but they don't come near this.
