Is there any Irish folk song called "Can you hear me"?

Post by mdivk »

I recorded a song using my cell in a local event, the song keeps repeating "Can you hear me", I asked around who can identify the song's name but no one knows it, a music guy said it sounds like Irish style or Celtic style.

Do anyone have any idea?

Many thanks.

Could it be:

from this album:

or, the lyrics form part of the chorus (repeated) in Tommy Sand's song, here as performed by the group Danu.

That's the one I'm thinking of. It's also on the CD called "Legacy" by The Dunne Family.

One idea could be to post the sound file from your cell phone here if none of the guys above have found the right song yet :)

You must not visit often. Davy & I answered this 15 months ago - so sorry you've gone without for so long.
