Van Morrison and the Chieftains - Star of the County Down (1988)

Somehow St. Patrick’s Day slipped up on me.  Here’s something good.

Have a very low budget cover! Not the best quality considering I have no recording equipment and did this on an iPhone in my car (with no backing music) but hey at least it’s singing! Anyway, this is a cover of “The Star Of The County Down” I did (specifically Loreena McKennit’s version). Any criticism is welcome! I only wish to improve!

I highly doubt that hardcore Tolkienians don't know this, but if any of you haven't noticed, many of the peoms in The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings have a basic meter of an avarge English/Irish/Scotish folk song.

So, you can actually sing poems like Far Over the Misty Mountains and The Fall of Gil-galad on the tune of songs like Star of the County Down as well as The Wellerman shanty and most cursedly - Drunken Sailor.

Enjoy this information.

#it's very hard for me to read poetry in a second language #and half way through fellowship my mind just started to sing them all on the star of county down tune #it was so cool when i realized this #anyway #now you are cursed with this information #have fun #you just need to find tge right beat #and also feel which line should be said a bit faster #try a couple and you'll know #the lord of the rings #lord of the rings #lotr #the hobbit #tolkien #jrr tolkien

Asha having a Hoppy Easter with hare bunnies by Asha Connie Kells Via Flickr: I just thought I'd upload this wee picture of Asha with her bunny ears posing beside two garden ornaments in our garden. This is one of Asha's first Easter shoots and it has brought back wonderful memories of this first Easter shoot. Happy Easter from Asha, wee Ashala and myself.

post-vacation hangover except I didn't go anywhere I just spent 4 straight days with Sierra so post-Sierra's vacation hangover...has anyone ever had a guest visit them and you're showing off your boring cringefail city with great weariness and they notice five thousand beautiful and deeply stupid things you never noticed before and then they leave and you have a renewed appreciation for your city 😭

#they sell ESPRESSO MARTINIS AT THE TANK #downtown is DEAD #there are amazing vegan nachos downtown!! #there is a nirvana soul kinda close to the tank!! #veteran's day is on a FRIDAY #and if you're a 10 on the east coast you're 50 in san jose and a 1000 for the barracuda!! #i can't believe i got them to haberdasher i forgot that place existed until this week and then we were there until 12am talking abt keebler #god truly fuck san jose conceptually this place sucks but living in north county was so so so much worse and i'm glad i'm down here again #and i get to show my beautiful friends this town #and i get to experience with them how deeply stupid this cringe ass boring city with bad highways is but with a kind of appreciation #asking sierra 20 times yesterday when they are coming back. you wanna come back for the all-star and season finale sooo bad :(((((( #now i have to write a sermon instead of being put in a medically induced coma or writing weird keebler/ekky all afternoon #which is a hell i think only methodists could design #fresno oilers.txt

For en studen siden fortalte jeg dere om den norske spillelisten min. I dag virker liksom en god dag for å dele den med dere. Spillelisten har for det meste folk, pønkrock og folkrock -- noen av favorittsjangerene mine -- og lyrikker på både bokmål (flere dialekter) og nynorsk.

A while ago I told you all I had a Norwegian playlist I'd share sometime and today seemed like a good day for it. The playlist is mostly folk, rock/punk and folk rock, and the the songs have lyrics in both Bokmål and Nynorsk.

#music #syld #speak your language day #there's one song on here's that's to the tune of 'star of the county down' but it is NOT a translation of the original lyrics #it's a drinking song #however the version of 'the fox' (reven på hønsejakt) is in fact still 'the fox'

anyone who invents spells in canon must have at least a rudimentary understanding of Latin. heaven knows Snape wasn’t going to the sort of primary school that taught classics (do we think he even went to school? Tobias doesn’t seem like he’d be that fussed about attendance and he’s the sort of kid authorities let slip through the cracks) so I’m gonna chalk that one up to your theory that he was raised Catholic.

so true, anon!

this is another reason petunia hates him - she thought she was someone because she'd won big in the coconut shy at cokeworth church of england primary school's summer fete, which snape [like all the rest of the taigs who were sent to our lady of lourdes] was forbidden from attending because he had to go to a confirmation class...

#asks answered #technically this is #northern ireland posting #only in that i believe everyone is northern irish until proven otherwise #tobias snape - star of the county down - they could never make me hate you

hey girl. let’s put on the special sex playlist tonight. [ALBUM- THE HIGH KINGS: MEMORY LANE]

#idk why it’s formatted like this that’s the best I could do. #highposting #hey babe. let’s jerk each others shit to thirty minutes of occasionally tragic irish music. #you’re the star of my county down babe.

Teenage Wiccan Caitie was wrong about many things but she was so so so right about being obsessed with Loreena McKennit and Celtic Woman and Enya as a gateway to other folk music celtic and otherwise.

#it’s listen to my folk shanty work song playlist o’clock #we are jamming to Loch Lomond and star of the county down #one day I will learn to fiddle and then I will be unstoppable #Caitie speaks

My brain cannot stop setting parts of Once And Future King to the melody of other songs that it really should not be sung to. Today it was Star Of The County Down

#trying to have a conversation meanwhile my brain is like ''to Arthur in his arms he sings of the star of the county down'' and I have to #not visibly react to that at all #the mechanisms #curio chatter

[adamshallperish]

would love to do an irish trad songs bracket but i fear the market for that is like three people

#who would win the auld triangle or the star of the county down i just have to know #irish music #irish folk music #mine
