Mum's really been looking forward to this week's Mewsic Moves Me because the theme is St Patrick's Day and songs about Ireland, Irish songs, Irish bands/singers and Celtic music.
Mum absolutely loves Celtic music, but as far as we know, she has no Celtic blood. She's actually had an ancestor DNA test done and her DNA is Mediterranean as expected (Greek, Italian mostly).
I told her that she probably has Celtic soul DNA. In other words, she has had Celtic past lives.
Or maybe, she just has great taste in music! I certainly enjoyed listening to these tracks and I loved seeing Mum enjoy them too.
So, here, without further ado, our Celtic-themed songs for today 😻
ENJOY!
CLANNAD - Robin The Hooded Man
Maybe you remember Robin of Sherwood TV series about Robin Hood from the 1980s? Mum certainly does. It's one of her all-time fave shows. The soundtrack by Irish band Clannad is ace.
Here's the title track Robin the Hooded Man.
RIVERDANCE
This is from the 1994 Eurovision Song Contest. Mum didn't get to see Riverdance live but she did see Lord of the Dance a couple of years later and she says it was amazing!
Another track from the Robin of Sherwood soundtrack.
NIGHTWISH - Harvest
Nightwish is from Finland but they do have a lot of Celtic influences in their music.
Here's the new single - Harvest which sounds so Celtic to us. The instrumental break in the middle is amazing.
Mum got up to jig around the room. That was MOL, I can tell you 😻
THE MUSIC OF IRELAND - Jigs and Reels
Mum found this and thought it would be great to share to get into the Irish spirit.
Romantic Celtic Music - Forest Nymphs | Beautiful, Enchanted, Magical
This is another video Mum just found while searching on YouTube for Celtic music. It's so magical and purrfect for chilling and relaxing.
Stay safe everyone!
