Since I appear to be the first voter I thought I'd qualify my response: Would like to hear more music from our Welsh kindred (including some of their Choirs). Otherwise I think Highlander Radio is GREAT!!!

Don't get to listen as much as I would like (Silly IT guys complain about bandwidth here at work all the time, so I usually only get to listen evenings/weekends...)
Seems to me that, since a large part of the playlist is listener generated via requests, that if someone wants more of their favorites on, they need to request them... (at least 5 a day, anyway!!)
I love the old classics, but have quite a bit of respect for some of the newer sounds as well.
Until I get time and money to round out my CD Collection, Highlander Radio is my first choice!!
I enjoy the current mix. Just the right blend of traditional/nontraditional and new music. If there is something that I'm in the mood for I just request it.
You just keep making the site better and better with every tweak without overdoing it. Please keep up the wonderful work!

I think it's perfect the only thing I would change is that we can make more then 3 requests in an hour and more then 5 requests in a day. I know there are alot of listeners but................

The mix is great. The current rotation tends to stagnate after a while (seem to be hearing the same rotation two months later, when it's getting old) But this is no big deal. I just crank my local playlist for a couple weeks, and HR is fresh and new when I come back Things like that are part of listening to a radio station, and if I don't like it, I can do something about it with:
killall mplayer ; mp3 /home/lunatic/Celtic.m3u
The mix of modern and traditional is great though. Keep up the good work, Lord MacArthur! I'm looking forward too, to better cross browser support. Any way I can help?

One can not profess to be of "GOD" and show intolerence and prejudice towards the beliefs of others.

I like the current mix. Keep up the fantastic work! The only this is I wish we could request more than three songs in a hour....but I know rules are rules...

I love the current mix! I love everything that is played. (But I'm not crazy about the techno stuff...) My very favorite is the bagpipe and drums! Keep up the terrific work!

"You thought the leaden winter would bring you down forever, But you rode upon a steamer to the violence of the sun. And the colors of the sea blind your eyes with trembling mermaids, And you touch the distant beaches with tales of brave Ulysses: How his naked ears were tortured by the sirens sweetly singing, For the sparkling waves are calling you to kiss their white laced lips." "The tiny purple fishes run laughing through your fingers, And you want to take her with you to the hard land of the winter." Tales Of Brave Ulysses by Eric Clapton and Martin Sharp
