Westenra, Hayley - Shenandoah Lyrics
Oh, Shenandoah, I long to hear you
Away, you rollin' river
O Shenandoah, I long to hear you.
Away I'm bound to go
'Cross the wide Missouri.
Away, you rollin' river
'Tis seven long years since I last saw you
Away I'm bound to go
'Cross the wide Missouri.
Oh Shenandoah, I'm bound to leave you
Away, you rollin' river.
O Shenandoah, I'll not deceive you,
Away I'm bound to go
'Cross the wide Missouri.

Westenra, Hayley Shenandoah Comments
The great American song of history, sung beautifully by a NewZealand girl.
This is beautiful but Tom Waits and Keith Richards still got it down the best, a bunch of lonely drunken sailors singing their hearts out.
I'm happy to see so much love for Endless Ocean in the comments. We need a new HD sequel!
Endless Ocean forever!!
いいね
Pure magic beautiful song thank you for sharing
Really awesome. Fantastic.
Breathtaking. The song and voice, too.
I want to cry
To those people who disliked the video, you are just twats this singing is amazing.
Im shook
At the end there are militar drums ,but sound good.
An Angel Sing this and Ave María of Bach Gounod and Pokerare Ana ...Hayley Is so Amazing and Excelent !! Just don t understand the militar drums at end ,but soy d good.From Lima Perú.
Hey guys, listen with close attention between secs 13 and 14: you'll note an unnatural small jump in the voice. Melodyne or other software intervention?
That jump is her raising the pitch of her voice
I should explain better. (Listening with headphones) after the Eb, the attack of the D....something strange, there, the D follows the Eb in a way too abrupt. This is typical when editing the sound. It happens in some other moments of the song.
+@coro uniud I have seen Hayley in concert and believe me, she doesn´t need some editing gimmicks. Her voice is or at
least was at the time beyond the world and beyond what one might reasonably expect to be possible
Thank you for your friendly feedback. I'm just aware of many cases where performances are wonderful and need no intervention, nonetheless a different (maybe more modern?) perspective, pushes sound engineers to put their hands on the voice track.
+@coro uniud Thanks for your additional information, I had no clue that his ican happen..What a disturbing trend! Yet again streamlining everything, trying to make everything sound "perfect" and distorting every originality and REAL beauty this way :-(
She sings Like An Angel I love it
Good, very good! But Sissel's still my favourite version.
I will allow others to tell you how truly beautiful both you and your music are and only say that I have listened to you since your Celtic Woman appearance and have never been disappointed in your music. A day with a Haylay Westenra song is a 100% better day than one w/o a Haylay Westenra song.
I just have to get to New Zealand. Chistchurch or Wellington come to mind. :-)
Her voice is off the charts awesome, I agree. How is it that no one has mentioned that she is drop dead gorgeous? As stunningly beautiful is her voice, so is she physically. Her eyes are the harbor to an endless ocean of love.
I totally agree .... I love all the lovely pictures of Hayley in this video ... I also love the way she sings and says Missouri!
Make up. Meh.
Singing this in choir
Every time I need to “let it all out,” I just listen to this and bawl my eyes out. This is literally the only piece of music in the world that makes me cry.
paul robeson...
I've never heard such an angelic voice in my entire existence.
+ I can only agree. I was lucky enough to meet her in concert in Germany when she was only 17 years old, me and my mother could even talk to her afterwards and take a picture. I think that you might enjoy these songs of Hayley as well: "She moves through the fair " https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tS-TGJLWEec , or "Benedictus" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UmEsKN_-gu0 and "Bridal Ballad" after a poem by Edgar Allan Poe https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RIqU6t3coWo and finally "Quanta Qualia" where her voice is simply beyond this world, reminding me of Angels and Divinity https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q99rqTX0C0o Best wishes and greetings from a German who learns and loves your beautiful language
Haley Westenra has a voice that will Carry throughout eternity.
Every part of the world and beyond will hold its beauty deep within. I honestly do love her magically touching voice. It touches my embattled spirit. Offers my soul a breath of life.
ENDLESS OCEAN!!! HELL YEAH!!!!
endless ocean mermaid ballroom dancing with phantom
Away is not pronounced awa
@Kopp203 actually this song is from like 1700 and it was pronounced MissouRYE back then, search it up. It's supposed to sound this way.
+@Phorteen Thanks for your comments!
@Robert HeilmeierWow! People still listen to this!
+@Phorteen Yep, and for years to come. Timeless beauty
@Robert Heilmeier it really is
Nice version, but Connie Dover does it better.
´+3wideBob Well, to each their own. De gustibus non est disputandum
this is a truly beautiful song. if u study the structure of the melody along with the lyric it seems as if the notes suggest the same story as in the lyric.
Does Celtic Women realize how blessed they were to have Haley sing with them for a while?
She is truly the best. ♥♥♥
Love this song! ;D
Incredible, two of the items on my bucket list are to visit New Zealand and see Hayley in concert. Maybe I'll get to do them all in one trip.
who in the @#$% disliked this
Some uncultured swine probably.
i love this song and i cry every time i hear it
Singing this for a school concert....)
Mermaid Cave in Endless Oceans :3
The happiest memories of playing that to this tune with my now estranged daughter. A bittersweet song now.
This is an American folk song from the 1700s, lol
Yesss! I loved that game. Made me dizzy as all getup, but loved it.
OH MY GOD THAT WAS MY FAVORITE GAME
awesome map, my personal fav
Hayley you are a beautiful singer! Have you ever tried to sing El Condor Pasa? Isle of Innisfree? Thank you!
A haunting rendition of a beautiful old song, sung with great sensitivity by a young woman blessed with a divine gift. Accompanied by wonderful musicianship and a splendid arrangement.
well said
Exact words Can t say Many others !!
Oh, Shenandoah, I long to hear you
