Here's a live version by MacTalla Mor. See what you think (bear in mind this is a cell phone recording and the game's song is a techno type):

| Hey everyone! I am new to this community. I am actually a total newbie to Celtic music in general though I've always liked the style. I am looking more into the genre. Anyways, I have a very odd question. There is a song I am trying to identify. Where I heard it? Believe it or not, a slot machine at a casino. The song is so gorgeous that there is no way the song was created specifically for this slot machine. Here is a video of it with the song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DqJQrWuASJs I am pretty sure it's a Celtic style song. I am new to this genre. If you can help me find this song, I will be indebted to you for the rest of my life, LOL. It's suck in my head constantly and I need to find where I can get it! Thanks in advance |

| It is familiar...perhaps a Loreena McKennitt song? I can almost hear bagpipes playing it in my head, though. Hmmm. I would look into Loreena's music and see if you can find it there, and I'll keep my "ears open" since I listen to Celtic music all day and if I hear it, I'll be sure and let you know! |

| Got it, I think! I just requested Chi Mi Na Morbheanna on Highlander Radio because I thought that might be it, and I think it is Here's a live version by MacTalla Mor.

| Vixie, I think that may be it! I wonder who did the version on that machine, though? I've been googling instrumentals for this song with no luck. The sung version is nice and I see lots of good versions of it, but I am wanting to find this version. I wonder what the chances of that are? Thanks so much you guys for the help. If anyone has any other comments or suggestions please pipe in. |

Try it under the English version "The Mist-Covered Mountains of Home".  |

| Been looking for a while. Seems like this is gonna be a challenge. Usually I can find almost any song I am looking for, but I think this version is going to elude me for good. I hate to think it was just made for this slot machine. Surely there must be a full version of it somewhere on the net. Thanks again for the suggestions. |

| Hey guys, I thought instead of making another thread, I'd post here again. I found this version of the song and I really loved it and bought the mp3 from Amazon. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ws0QlTubyZ4 I like their rendition of the song. The style of singing along with the instruments they used its wonderful. Can anyone recommend me some singers/bands like them? Thanks in advance. |

| I recommend Talitha MacKenzie, she was the singer in Mouth Music. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fpMVE74n3zA |
