is anyone else here a fan of Celtic Music?

I have always been a big fan of Celtic Music, two of my Favorite songs being "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ny7NZPfl0l4" (a song obviously about part of the Arthurian legend), and "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VQpdxi4VW0s"



Who else is a fan of Celtic Music? what are some songs you enjoy?

I've been a big fan of Celtic music at least since the theme from http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yMaoSRr2oOQ by Clannad was a hit in the eighties.

Learning to play Scots and Irish traditional tunes on the tin whistle - not very well admittedly. Would love to learn to play the Uilleann pipes except the neighbours would definitely lynch me - they might anyway. Especially love slow Irish airs such as http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dkwT911XkTM

If you're in the UK it's worth checking out BBC Alba - a lot of live celtic music on there and they cover events like the Hebridean music festival.

I direct all Celtic music fans to https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL01430065947B667E. He records a lot of brilliant music that's worth listening to, but Celtic is definitely where his passion lies.

Some highlights include https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=06H_6oI4EK4&index=42&list=PL01430065947B667E, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tWpe2ppRRGg&index=44&list=PL01430065947B667E, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E8LyfgvRhSM&index=59&list=PL01430065947B667E, and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=INaM813ohL8&index=37&list=PL01430065947B667E.
