02 Jan 05 - 02:22 PM (#1369485) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: River by Susan McKeown From: Jim Dixon RIVER, written by Susan McKeown, is performed by Susan McKeown and Natalie Merchant on the various-artists compilation "Celtic Circle, Vol. 2," Windham Hill 2-CD #64590, 2004. Sound samples are available, but I can't get them to play right now. Time to reboot, I guess. |

03 Jan 05 - 06:08 PM (#1370410) Subject: ADD: River by Susan McKeown From: Brían On: SNG 704 Susan McKeown and The Chanting House Prophecy RIVER (Susan McKeown) Bathe me in the waters of the Lagan, of the Boyne Of the Liffey of the Slaney, of the Barrow, Nore and Suir Of the Blackwater, the Bann, the Lee, the Shannon, Foyle and Erne Bathe me in the waters O bless the water that flows from the fields into the sea that surrounds aour little isle of green Hope is a river that flows from these stone walls into an ocean we have never seen Hope is a dress that my mother once wore a fiddle tune I heard that has no words Hope is the one thing we have never lost Though we are tired of the old war Same anger in our hearts, same desolation and loss Why are we divided Bind us in friendship so rage will never rise again In fair Éire between friends |

Also the melody is so soothing I keep listening to your song every time my dad and I drive in the car! I love your song and I will really look for these rivers the next time I go to The Little Isle of Green. -Gaelyn Donoghue |

12 May 10 - 01:12 AM (#2904965) Subject: RE: req/add: River (Susan McKeown) From: GUEST,Sabrina The annoying thing about the Celtic Circle cd is that the song is on the disk I have (which is where I heard it), but since I lost it and want to download it, that song isn't on the track list for some strange reason. Anyone else have this problem, or are there two versions of the CD out there? |
12 May 10 - 01:37 AM (#2904973) Subject: RE: req/add: River (Susan McKeown) From: Joe Offer Hi, Sabrina- I found it on the first disc of Celtic Circle, Volume 2. I see there's also a Celtic Circle 3 (at an outrageous price - must be out of print). -Joe- |
