Niall Horan – Spancil Hill – Live at the White House – St Patrick’s Day 2023  ☘️ ♥️

Lyrics

Last night as I lay dreamin’
Of pleasant days gone by
Me mind bein’ bent on rambling
To Ireland I did fly
I stepped on board a vision and
I followed with the wind
Till first I came to anchor at
The cross at Spancil Hill

It being the 23rd of June
The day before the fair
Where Ireland’s sons and daughters
And friends assembled there
The young, the old
The brave and the bold came
Their duty to fulfill
At the parish church near Clooney
A mile from Spancil Hill

I went to see my neighbours to
See what they might say
The old ones were all dead and gone
The young ones turning grey
I met the tailor Quigley
He’s as bold as ever still
He used to mend my britches when
I lived in Spancil Hill

I took a flying visit to my one and only love
She’s as white as any lily
As gentle as a dove
She threw her arms around
Me, saying “Johnny, i love you still”
She is Nell, the farmer’s daughter
The pride of Spancil Hill

I dreamt I held and kissed her
As in the days of old
Saying, “Johnny, you’re only joking
As many’s the time before”
But the cock, he crew in the morning
He crew both loud and shrill
I awoke in California
Many miles from Spancil Hill

Billie Eilish.Finneas O’Connell – I Love You

Billie Eilish – I love you (Live At The Greek Theatre)

Eilish is actually her middle name. Before she was born, her parents, Maggie Baird and Patrick O’Connell, saw a documentary about conjoined Irish twins, Katie and Eilish Holton, and decided if they ever had a daughter, they wanted to name her Eilish. But when Maggie was pregnant, her father, Bill, passed away, so they named her Billie after him instead. Meanwhile, Finneas, who was four, insisted on calling her “Pirate,” and that stuck, too. And thus, her full name: Billie Eilish Pirate Baird O’Connell.

i love you

Billie Eilish

It’s not true
Tell me I’ve been lied to
Cryin’ isn’t like you
Ooh
What the hell did I do?
Never been the type to
Let someone see right through
Ooh

Maybe won’t you take it back?
Say you were tryna make me laugh
And nothin’ has to change today
You didn’t mean to say, “I love you”
I love you and I don’t want to
Ooh

Up all night on another red eye
I wish we never learned to fly
I
Maybe we should just try
To tell ourselves a good lie
I didn’t mean to make you cry
I

Maybe won’t you take it back?
Say you were tryna make me laugh
And nothin’ has to change today
You didn’t mean to say, “I love you”
I love you and I don’t want to
Ooh

The smile that you gave me
Even when you felt like dyin’

We fall apart as it gets dark
I’m in your arms in Central Park
There’s nothin’ you could do or say
I can’t escape the way I love you
I don’t want to, but I love you
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh

Feet of a Dancer

Maura O’ConnellI

hope you find the feet of a dancer,
I hope you can sing in the rain,
I hope you find all the easy answers to your pain;
It won’t be easy, what can I say,
There will be trouble along the way;
‘Round every corner there’s terror and fear,
Always remember that we’re here.
I hope you find the feet of a dancer,
I hope you can sing in the rain,
I hope you find all the easy answers to your pain;
I hope you find love and affection,
I hope you find someone who cares;
I hope you find all the right directions everywhere,
Everywhere.
A shoulder to cry on whenever you’re alone,
You can rely on us you know;
Nothing too crazy, nothing too dear,
Always remember that we’re here.
I hope you find the feet of a dancer,
I hope you can sing in the rain,
I hope you find all the easy answers to your pain;
I hope you find love and affection,
I hope you find someone who cares;
I hope you find all the right directions everywhere,
Everywhere.

Sometimes when the rain comes pouring down,
When it comes pouring down,
Down on you.
I hope you find the feet of a dancer,
I hope you can sing in the rain,
I hope you find all the easy answers to your pain;
I hope you find love and affection,
I hope you find someone who cares;
I hope you find all the right directions everywhere,
Everywhere.
I hope you find all the right directions everywhere,
Everywhere.

Beyoncé – Halo

Lyrics

I love the way you walk into the room
Body shining lightin’ up the place
And when you talk, everybody stop
‘Cause they know you know just what you sayin’
The way that you protect your friends
Baby I respect you for that
And when you grow you’ll take everyone you love along
I love that shit
Don’t fly me away
Don’t need to buy a diamond key to unlock my heart
You shelter my soul, you’re my fire when I’m cold
I want you to know
You had me at hello
Hello, hello
‘Cause you had me at hello
Hello, hello
‘Cause it was many years ago
Baby when you stole my cool
‘Cause you had me at hello
Hello, hello
I get so excited when you travel with me
Baby while I’m on my grind
And never will I ever let my hustle
Come between me and my family time and
You keep me humble, I like this type
‘Cause you know there’s more to life
And if I need ya, you will be here
You will make the sacrifice
Wanna feel you, wanna be near you
You’re the air that I breathe to survive
I wanna know you, wanna show you
That without you my sun doesn’t shine
You don’t have to try so hard for me to love you
Boy without you my life just ain’t the same
You don’t have to try so hard for me to love you
‘Cause you had me at Hello
Hello, Hello
‘Cause you had me at Hello
Hello, Hello
Baby it was many years ago, when you stole my cool
Baby you had me at Hello
Hello, Hello
HELLO
HELLO
HELLO
HELLO
Hello, Hello
Hello

Lyrics

Beautiful child
Beautiful child
You are a beautiful child
And I am a fool once more

You fell in love when I was only ten
The years disappeared
Much has gone by since then
I bite my lip, can you send me away?
You touch, I have no choice (ooh, ooh)
I have to stay (ooh)
Ooh, I had to stay
Ooh, I had to stay

Sleepless child
There is so little time
Your eyes say yes
But you don’t say yes
Well I wish that you were mine
I wish that you were mine

You say it will be harder in the morning
I wait for you to say, just go
Your hands held mine so few hours
(I fell into love) But I’m not a child anymore

I’m not a child anymore
I’m tall enough to reach for the stars
I’m old enough to love you from afar
Too trusting? Yes
But then women usually are

I’m not a child anymore
I’m not a child, oh no (I’m tall enough to reach for the stars)
I will do as I’m told (I’m old enough to love you from afar)
Even if I never hold you again (too trusting? Yes, but then women usually are)
Hold you again (hold you again)

Sleepless child
There is so little time (I will do as I am told)
Your eyes say yes, but you don’t say yes
(Even if I never hold you again)
I wish that you were mine (hold you again)
I wish that you were mine (even if I never hold you again)
Well I wish that you were mine (hold you again)
Well I wish that you were mine

Cherry Wine

Hozier

Her eyes and words are so icy
Oh but she burns
Like rum on the fire
Hot and fast and angry as she can be
I walk my days on a wire.

It looks ugly, but it’s clean,
Oh momma, don’t fuss over me.

The way she tells me I’m hers and she is mine
Open hand or closed fist would be fine
The blood is rare and sweet as cherry wine.

Calls of guilty thrown at me
All while she stains
The sheets of some other
Thrown at me so powerfully
Just like she throws with the arm of her brother.

But I want it
It’s a crime
That she’s not around most of the time.

The way she shows me I’m hers and she is mine
Open hand or closed fist would be fine
Blood is rare and sweet as cherry wine.

Her fight and fury is fiery
Oh but she loves
Like sleep to the freezing
Sweet and right and merciful
I’m all but washed
In the tide of her breathing.

And it’s worth it, it’s divine
I have this some of the time.

The way she shows me I’m hers and she is mine
Open hand or closed fist would be fine
The blood is rare and sweet as cherry wine.

Sinéad O’Connor – Something Beautiful live at the Sugar Club, Dublin. Buried in Deansgrange 🖤

2,198,715 views Apr 18, 2012
Something Beautiful is taken from the limited edition DVD package Theology. Recorded in the intimate environs of The Sugar Club.

Lyrics

I wanna make
Something beautiful
For you and from you
To show you
To show you
I adore you
Oh you

And your journey
Towards me
Which I see
And I see
All you push through
Mad for you
And because of you

I couldn’t thank you in ten thousand years
If I cried ten thousand rivers of tears
Ah, but you know the soul
And you know what makes it gold
You give life through blood
Blood, blood
Blood, blood
Oh, blood, blood

Oh I wanna make something so lovely for you
‘Cause I promised that’s what I’d do for you
With the Bible, I stole
I know you forgave my soul because
Such was my need on a chronic Christmas Eve
And I think we’re agreed
That it should have been free
And you sang to me

They dress the wounds of my poor people
As though they’re nothing
Saying, “Peace, peace”
When there’s no peace
They dress the wounds of my poor people
As though they’re nothing
Saying, “Peace, peace, peace”
When there’s no peace

Days without number
Now can a bride forget her jewels?
Or a maid her ornaments?
Yet, my people forgotten me

Days without number
Days without number
And in their want
Who’ll dress their wounds?
Who’ll dress their wounds?

Daniel O’Donnell – Come Back Paddy Reilly to Ballyjamesduff by Percy French #Cavan  🇮🇪 😀 with thanks to RTE

67,806 views May 6, 2012

Daniel performs the popular Irish ballad by Percy French at the Green Glens Arena in Millstreet, County Cork on New Year’s Eve 1994.

Lyrics

The Garden of Eden has vanished, they say

But I know the lie of it still;

Just turn to the left at the bridge of Finea

And stop when halfway to Cootehill.

‘Tis there I will find it, I know sure enough

When fortune has come to me call,

Oh the grass it is green around Ballyjamesduff

And the blue sky is over it all.

And tones that are tender and tones that are gruff

Are whispering over the sea,

Come back, Paddy Reilly to Ballyjamesduff

Come home, Paddy Reilly, to me.

My mother once told me that when I was born

The day that I first saw the light,

I looked down the street on that very first morn

And gave a great crow of delight.

Now most newborn babies appear in a huff,

And start with a sorrowful squall,

But I knew I was born in Ballyjamesduff

And that’s why I smiled on them all.

The baby’s a man, now he’s toil-worn and tough

Still, whispers come over the sea,

Come back, Paddy Reilly to Ballyjamesduff

Come home, Paddy Reilly, to me.

The night that we danced by the light of the moon,

Wid Phil to the fore wid his flute,

When Phil threw his lip over

Come Again Soon, He’s dance the foot out o’ yer boot!

The day that I took long Magee by the scruff

For slanderin’ Rosie Kilrain,

Then, marchin’ him straight out of Ballyjamesduff,

Assisted him into a drain.

Oh, sweet are the dreams, as the dudeen I puff,

Of whisperings over the sea,

Come back, Paddy Reilly to Ballyjamesduff

Come home, Paddy Reilly, to me.

I’ve loved the young women of every land,

That always came easy to me; J

ust barrin’ the belles of the Black-a-moor brand And the chocolate shapes of Feegee. B

ut that sort of love is a moonshiny stuff,

And never will addle me brain,

For the bells will be ringin’ in Ballyjamesduff

For me and me Rosie Kilrain!

And through all their glamour, their gas and their guff

A whisper comes over the sea,

Come back, Paddy Reilly to Ballyjamesduff

Come home, Paddy Reilly, to me.

Emmylou Harris,Dolly Parton,Linda Ronstadt – After the Goldrush (Neil Young) with thanks to David Letterman

“Trio II” was recorded in 1994 but not released until 1999, when Emmylou Harris, Dolly Parton, and Linda Ronstadt appeared on Late Show to perform Neil Young’s “After the Gold Rush.” The Glass Harmonica (or Armonica) was played by Dennis James, who remembers the performance in an interview with Rich Bailey in 2002: Rich Bailey: I remember when you appeared with her on Letterman and you discussed the Armonica a bit. How was that? Dennis James: Well, it was a great surprise. A sort of unspoken message in the air to me before the broadcast was “Do not say anything on the air!”. After all, these things are Linda’s appearances. When David L. leaned over his desk and directed a question to me I simply froze- on playback of the dub I can see myself caught and unable to speak. I received a glance from Linda that said to me it was OK and so when he tried again I called back a flip one liner and on things went from there. http://www.ronstadt-linda.com/djames…. The synthesizer player is Cliff Carter. I think the pianist is Robbie Kondor. The Trio altered two lines in their original “Trio II” recording: 1. “in the nineteen seventies” changed to “in the twentieth century.” 2. “And I felt like getting high” changed to “And I felt like I could cry.” Here’s their CD version: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ykMzS… It’d be tough to imagine them changing the lyrics without first getting Neil’s permission. So to everyone complaining about the lyric changes in this live performance: Don’t blame the show or the network. The changes had been made in the Trio’s original recording. And, we must assume, with Neil Young’s blessing. Update: Quoting Wikipedia: “Parton also released a solo version of the song in 1996, though her version altered the line ‘I felt like getting high’ to ‘I felt like I could cry’ with the permission of Neil Young.”
