Go raibh maith agat, a Thomáis! Taitníonn siad liomsa freisin. Tá amhrán eile ar an albam seo dar teideal Éist do Bhéal, a chuala mé á ghabháil ag Sinéad Lohan ar an albam Éist, a tháinig amach cúpla bliain ó shin. Is maith liom an t-amhrán sin freisin.

Is breá liom an méid de atá cloiste agam go dtí seo. Chuala mé giota ar RTÉ fiú (agus is annamh a ligtear don ghaeilge ealú as geiteo RnaG).

Tá sé ar mo liosta do Shan Nioclás!

Nílim sásta le h-alt

"from Deichtines daughter in The Wounded Hero to the doom-laden fate of a mermaid's daughter)"

What does this mean?

"At times that's English, at others its Irish, and, more often than not, its a hybrid whose grammar is more readily defined by rhythm and syllable than by more conventional notions of language boundaries."

I bet they didnt take such an eclectic atitude towards building their houses. how about a thatched pagoda-cum-boat where part of the roof comes up to act as a sail?

"At a time when Irish society is agog to the sound of countless languages coalescing"

There is no evidence of a pigon-tongue mixed of Chinese, POlish, English, Russian etc developing

"I dont think we should underestimate what audiences are capable of, and that goes for music, for journalism and for university courses, too."

Sounds off with the usual artist rablings. Blah, blah, blah

Beidh siad i DCU ar Dé Luain agus mé ag tnúth go mór leis ;)

Good for you. I'm sure in person, the music will 'speak for itself'.

My iritation was from remembering the arts and music students I ahve met in the past who imply when speaking to you that you're somehow old-fashioned, yet despite are their codology, are perhaps the most narrow minded conservatives I have even met

Artsy fartsy pretension and condescention is usually 101% pure, unadulterated, prime grade b.s. It's all an act.

Sáralbam. Tá éacht déanta acu beirt. Tá súil agam go mbaineann sé áiut mhaith amach sna cairteacha.

A Chairde! Cheannaigh mé an t-albam..tá sé don céad scoth! Tá clip de nóiméad amháin ón gach amhrán le fáil ar suíomh John Spillane
