Comment: I was very pleased with the cd. I had watch the video of this music on PBS TV and enjoyed it. The music is great and all the artist are a pleasure to listen to. I purchased one for each of my children as well. I was even surprised that my 6 year old grandson loved the music as well.

Summary: Would the real Celtic Thunder please stand up!
Comment: I can't believe an institution like PBS would join the evil corporate world just to make money. I thought they actually cared a little about the shows and names they are associated with...I was so disappointed recently to turn on the tv and see this hokey bunch of singers pretending to be singing Irish music. And they stole the name!!!! There is an original Celtic Thunder out of the DC area that I have listened to for years and they are the real deal--traditional music with lyrics that make you feel you are immersed in the world of being Irish. Don't waste your money, or more importantly, time with this group--check out the REAL Celtic Thunder if you are looking for Irish music--The Light of Other Days is a favorite!

Summary: Celtic Thunder cannot be beat!
Comment: I first heard Celtic Thunder accidentally by clicking through television stations and landing on a PBS program. I was going to quickly click out of it, but became mesmerized immediately. When the show was over, I went directly to the Internet and ordered a DVD and an audio of the show. Then I ordered two more for my children! This is the best I've heard in a while!Celtic Thunder: The Show

Summary: Celtic Thunder CD
Comment: I absolutely love this cd, and play it all the time. As soon as the drums start for 'Heartland', I'm starting to move in time with it! All the songs are great, and having seen a number of video clips on Youtube, I will be buying the DVD as soon as its available for Region 4! I was intrigued to see that some people were upset by the inclusion of some religious words in the song (apparently the words in gaelic), but when I saw the lyrics, I could see that it was a sailor's hymn to God, asking Him to keep them safe, and then giving thanks when they were safely home, so to me, it makes sense. Anyway, the one song I would have preferred not to listen to, is 'Puppy Love'. I have never really like the song, perhaps because there have been so many bad versions of it, but giving credit where it is due, Damien McGinty does a very good job of it, perhaps because he is a teenager himself, albeit with a very mature voice. I think Celtic Thunder work so well as a group,because all five are accomplished singers/musicians in their own right, and that experience shows up very clearly in the songs. I thoroughly recommend this cd to anyone who likes celtic music.
