Day 3: A song in a foreign language

Magma is a band from France and their drummer created his own language called Kobaian and most of their songs are sung in that language. This one has some English interspersed through the song. I thought this would be a fascinating addition to today's theme.

 
Day 3: A song in a foreign language

This is a Gaelic song heard in trailers for the Disney Pixar movie Brave. I was struck by how beautiful her voice is and added it to my playlist. Not a fucking clue what she’s saying but it feels good.

Julie Fowlis - Tha Mo Ghaol Air Àird a' Chuain

I love that movie and Gaelic music! I have a cd that is all soothing Gaelic songs that I play for my daughter at night 😍

"My Love Is Over (or Upon) The Ocean."

I still have my English/Gaelic dictionaries.

Old Scottish song, IIRC. It ends well, which isn't always a given.

Have I ever mentioned the dichotomy between your writing and some of your musical choices? Because there might be a slight one.

Oh, how I love you...

Beautiful language, though I understand it written far more than I will ever spoken (or sung). I used to sing Gaelic songs to my daughter as lullabies (as well as Irish drinking songs, which didn't go over as well when she was singing them on the playground the next day).

None of those drunken lullabies about rose tattoos at school!
