This is Karan Casey singing Buile Mo Chroi (which means either "The Pain in My Heart or The Beat of My Heart) from her CD The Winds Begin to Sing.
I had posted this video a few months ago, but the link became dead so I am reposting it. I want those who link in for the music posts to continue to have access to it.
Notice that Donald Shaw is playing the piano on this video. He also is on the CD along with Michael McGoldrick on the pipes. The singing is in both English and Gaelic and the overall "feel" of the song is a kind of Celtic roadhouse blues.
