Song for an Advent weekend: Oíche Chiúin
In the midst holiday preparations, take a bit of time for quiet reflection on the season. Whether Irish is your language or not, I think you will recognize the song.
Mairéad Ní Mhaonaigh, Muireann Nic Amhlaoibh, and Eleanor Shanley sing
Oíche Chiúin from Geantraí na Nollag, broadcast in Ireland on TG4 at Christmas 2010

Thanks for sharing. One of my favorites. And, so beautifully sung!
Beautiful. Silent Night is one of those songs that just calms me down every time I hear it. Also love the Mannheim Steamroller version.
Silent Night is my favorite Christmas song--simple, soothing. I enjoyed this version. Thanks for passing this along.
Beautiful. I love this song in any language!
Just beautiful. An all- time favorite. Thanks for sharing.
As others have said - a classic.
This is lovely. And the pints of ale in the video make it pretty realistic!
Thanks for sharing this.
