Celtic Woman (A New Journey)

just finished watching a DVD of this live concert. It included even more traditional celtic songs than there first concert. Also Hayley Westenra was singing with them. Hayley has such a strong and moving voice. I've noticed however that after she sings, even if it's a song of mourning and/ or longing, she smiles really wide. I was so captivated by her singing of Scarborough Fair, I actually would have believed that she really does have an ex-lover living there, whom she misses. Then she smiles, and I'm like OK she must not miss him so badly after all. About the other members of Celtic Woman. Lisa was as enchanting as ever. Mairead moved gracefuly, as she played her fiddle, as a breeze over the water. Meav sang eloquently in gaelic, as only she can. Chloe's voice was somewhat more mature, yet just as vibrant. She also looked as if her body grew more volumptuous. Orla, the sole alto in the group, sang richly, and harped beautifuly. This is one journey you will want to take over and over again.
