Loreena McKennitt Lyrics


"If one begins with the big questions of 'Who am I?' and
'Why am I here?', the understanding of the roads back in
history seem as important as the ones forward, whether or
not it pertains to the individual or collective, to the
subject of love or the control of information."

In The Book Of Secrets, Loreena McKennitt's seventh release
and successor to the U.S. gold records The Visit and The
Mask And Mirror, the Canadian artist continues a process of
cultural excavation of the pan-Celtic heritage, serving as
a creative springboard and More...

A beautiful lullaby | Reviewer: Josephine
    ------ About the song The Highwayman performed by Loreena McKennitt

Hearing Loreena sing, you feel like a babe in a cradle, listening to a mother sing a lullaby, a story long forgotten and washed away by the past. A sad story it is, and for us to ponder on throughout all times.

Singing harp | Reviewer: Basit
    ------ About the song The Bonny Swans performed by Loreena McKennitt

It appears that the younger sister was going to marry into royalty and the elder one killed her for it as she loved William, the prince. The harper made a harp out of her parts and took it to the king's court, where the harp started to play by itself and told the whole story. Hugh is probably the brother-in-law, and she refers to her in-laws as father and mother.

    ------ About the song The Mummers' Dance performed by Loreena McKennitt

The mummers dance is referring to an Irish tradition somewhat like may day. usually young children take baskets of flowers and hang them on the doorknobs of friends to celebrate the arrival of spring. it was done at night or before sunrise so they wouldn't be seen. and the last line is referring to the Lord God. He is, afterall, the creator of all the beauty of nature.

Never Ending Road, BEAUTIFUL SONG | Reviewer: PRIVATE
    ------ About the song Never-ending Road (Amhrán Duit) performed by Loreena McKennitt

If I am correct, this album came about once she had initially recovered from the sailing accident which took the life of her fiancee. There were all kind of stories circulating of how she was dealing with the loss and whether she would even continue with her music. She rose above her grief and wrote, this song, which I believe is a tribute to his enduring Spirit intertwined with that of our Heavenly Father. I don't find it a dark mysticism but a potential that she was being guided out from under such beliefs into the Divine Light of Biblical Truth and the Holy and Abiding Spirit of God.

Heart opening, soul lifting. | Reviewer: Malcolm Tearle
    ------ About the song The Mummers' Dance performed by Loreena McKennitt

Wow, how beautiful, I'm practicing my aunt's witchcraft, 'Freeman witchcraft,' and this music just fills me with the spirit of the old ways, Loreena Mckennitt is a beautiful woman in heart and soul, if we were in the times of King Arthur, I would happily be your knight, may she keep up the good work, love and blessings.

A thin place | Reviewer: larry
    ------ About the song Skellig performed by Loreena McKennitt

I have been to Great Skellig, or Skellig Michael, and the monastic remains that perch on one of its two great precipices, three times over the past 25 years. It is a magical place indeed. A site the early Irish religious regarded as a "thin place", a place where this world and the one beyond drew very close together. Lorenna's song and beautiful voice evoke the utter isolation and romance of the place which lies 9 miles offshore from the Irish mainland.

Do people use this as a wedding march? They should... | Reviewer: Johanan Rakkav
    ------ About the song Never-ending Road (Amhrán Duit) performed by Loreena McKennitt

And another question: How can Loreena sing this song without breaking down and crying? (Or many another sing she sings, for that matter?) I can't even listen to it, let alone try to play it, without crying...

Karma is the only culprit there... | Reviewer: Ted Kawleski
    ------ About the song The Highwayman performed by Loreena McKennitt

Anything you believe, everything you perceive can NOT BE. It is only faith.
Faith is only... What?

Reality is not subject to fairy tales.... I've found it to be subject only to faith in reality.
