The Celtic show`s third album focuses on old pop stand-bys.
The Celtic Thunder road show is a multigenerational extravaganza of Irish-flavored pop music designed to melt hearts. Their third album, culled from their 2009 show, focuses mainly on pop standbys like "Every Breath You Take" and "Wichita Lineman." While the uninitiated may not even suspect that the act is Irish, an emerald glint shines off the folkier numbers like "The Green Fields Of France" and "I`m Gonna Be (500 Miles)."

Customer Reviews
I would highly recommend this CD to any fans of Celtic Thunder, Ten Tenors, Irish Tenors, American Tenors, etc. The variety of music can fit any mood/time of day!
Really great voices and a joy to listen to. I listen to this often on my to and from work and usually most of the time I am in my car. I would recommend this to everyone. It is well done, a good value and the songs are great as well. Looking forward to getting all of the Celtic Thunder cds as I find it worth the money and the time. Such enjoyment.
They are marvelous singers .... NOT SCREAMERS like we are forced to listen to these days. I love their choice of music and songs. Each has a different sound and all of them are great when they sing alone or with each other. I now own three of their CD's and am looking for more in the future.
