I'm a fan of Scottish and Irish folk music myself.
Here's a rather beautiful harmonic version of Galway Bay by some young Irish ladies.

His Name forever shall endure;
last like the sun it shall:
Men shall be blessed in Him,
and blessed all nations shall Him call (Ps. 72:17)
I like folk music because it usually has a story to tell that most will not listen to otherwise.

That is one of the prettiest versions of Galway Bay I have heard. Thanks for posting it.

Upon a life I did not live; upon a death I did not die, Another's death, Another's life, I'd rest my soul eternally
Omnia dicta fortiora,si dicta Latina
Si vis pacem, para bellum
Another great Irish folk band was Planxty, with the brilliant uileann pipe playing of Liam o'Flynn :
