Celtic Woman Review

I recently had a chance to hear the new Celtic Woman CD, courtesy of EMI Music and Music Moms. This CD is AMAZING. I hadn’t even heard of Celtic Woman before I received it, and as soon as I popped it into the stereo in my car, my kids were all mesmerized. I expected it to be pretty much, well, Irish music, but it was a lot more than that. I was pretty surprised to hear gorgeous renditions of Mariah Carey’s “When You Believe,” Sting’s “Fields of Gold,” and Billy Joel’s “Goodnight My Angel.” The song that moved me the most, though, was the classic Amazing Grace – it gave me chills.

Here is the track listing from Songs from the Heart:

1. Fields of Gold
2. Amazing Grace
3. Níl Sé’n Lá
4. My Lagan Love
5. When You Believe
6. The New Ground – Isle of Hope, Isle of Tears
7. The Coast of Galiçia
8. Non C’è Più
9. The Moon’s A Harsh Mistress
10. You’ll Be In My Heart
11. Goodnight My Angel
12. Galway Bay
13. The Lost Rose Fantasia
14. O, America!

Check out these ladies – aren’t they just magical?

They’re about to embark on nationwide tour beginning February 9th, but I noticed they don’t have any dates scheduled for Colorado. Booooo! That’s okay, Celtic Woman promoters. I won’t hold it against you this time.

Check out Celtic Woman – they’re everywhere. You can find them on Facebook, Twitter on their own website at Celtic Woman.com, and you can view their videos on YouTube.
