Finally found my favorite song. My father allowed me to choose a CD during a trade fair when I was 10 years old. I chose this CD. I had seen this on commercial film and I really liked it. I had played this song crazy because I liked it so much. It gave a special memory, I was grateful to my father to get this CD. 1 because it was beautiful, 2 because it belonged to my father, my parents were divorced and my father was not a good example for me. Rare good memory of my father. This year my father passed away, so it's extra special.⭐
same! i used to play this constantly when i was in high school(over twenty years ago now!) it was my escape. so much variety i never got tired of it. every so often i come across it and get all misty-eyed and give it a spin. i have no idea where it is as this very moment. might be in my truck at the bottom of the pile.
Anyone know where I can find the sheet music to this version? I found a few note sheets to Baidin Fheidhlimi, but they all seem to be different variations. I want the sheet music to this version.
Ian - It has not totally gone away you know. The area described in this song is in the Donegal Gaeltacht and Tory Island where poor Feilim and his little boat were wrecked is very much Irish speaking.
Ian, if you head out West, from down in Kerry to up in Conermara in Co. Galway, you can still hear their native tongue being spoken. Especially in the back room of a pub in Clifden.
