55 Things You Missed In The Shape of Water (2017) - Duration: 14:12.

This episode of Things You Missed is brought to you by the new CZsWorld Merch Store.

Stick around to the end of this video to hear about our free merch giveaway.

The biggest theme that I picked up on in The Shape of Water, was actually not water, but

rather, time.

Right off from the opening scene, we are bombarded with symbols related to time.

Elisa's life is constantly on a tight schedule, she keeps an alarm clock and a watch on the

table next to her bed, just two of the many clocks seen around her apartment.

She's always on top of keeping track of the date using her calendar.

The calendar also features quotes on the back of each page, one of which compares the flow

of a river to the flow of time.

But despite all this, she is constantly late.

Whenever she shows up to work, her co-worker Zelda always has to rush her and pull her

up to the front of the timestamp line so she can clock in on time.

The timestamps, by the way, are another time reference, because being on time seems to

be a huge deal at the company that they work at.

There's a huge clock on the outside of the building and Director Guillermo Del Toro really

wants his audience to notice the time motif.

But the question is: what does it mean?

One of the timers that Elisa has in her apartment is a kitchen timer which is shaped like an

egg.

Eggs may have a greater significance than just being the food that Elisa feeds Amphibian

Man.

They don't really give him a name in the movie, so I'm just gonna call him…

Gabe…

Gapien.

But if you look at it in a broader, more symbolic sense in terms of their relationship; Elisa

offers her Eggs to Gabe, which could be seen as a symbol of reproductive fertility, especially

given the weird stuff that goes down later in the movie.

Which takes us back to Elisa's egg timer because human fertility is on a rather strict

timer as well, which Elisa, who looks to be in her 40s is coming up on.

And like Dimitri's timer, the one he attaches to the building's circuit panel, once time

is up, it's lights out.

Although, that could just be a reference to death.

We do see the first kill take place in that scene as a result.

There's also a scene where Elisa is waiting for the bus and sits next to a man holding

a birthday cake, a symbol for aging.

Then Giles during the part where he's feeling rejected and unwanted, he says he feels he

was born too early or too late, which is most likely a response to him being kicked out

of his favorite pie place because of his sexual orientation.

He wishes he lived in an era where he could be accepted for who he is.

That also plays a part in the reason he helps Elisa, because he can relate to her in the

sense that most of the world doesn't understand him.

That's not to say that Giles didn't need some convincing and a slap in the face to

get him going though.

Did anyone notice Elisa checking her watch before hitting him?

This could be her trying to break out her shell.

She is usually quiet, reserved… and as I mentioned, always late.

But in order to save Gabe, she knows she has to change to challenge authority and be spot

on time in order for the heist to work.

We know this because they have to synchronize their watches and there's a four minute

window to success.

Elisa still does end up being late during the heist, but she gets lucky when Dimitri

ends up being on their side.

When Elisa develops her next plan, to release Gabe on October 10th, she is once again faced

with the time challenge.

Dimitri tells her she needs to release him by then as a health concern, Strickland is

given until then to bring back the asset with his life on the line, so he bears after the

fishnapper, leaving Elisa no time to spare anyway.

It is only then that she finally makes it to the docks on time and gets herself and

Gabe to safety, presumably also beating the biological clock as she takes a dive with

Gabe, this movie's so weird…

The use of color also seems to tie into the time theme that Del Toro has woven into the

story.

This is explained when Giles presents his artwork to the Jello company and they tell

him that they don't want red jello anymore because green is the color of the future,

which led me to assume that red represented the past.

We also see some yellows in this movie, so maybe they represent the present, you can

let me know your own ideas in the comments.

I think one of the reasons I can get behind the idea, is because we see Strickland's

transition to becoming what the Cadillac dealer refers to as a man of the future.

When we first see Strickland's family, they are all wearing yellow and everything in the

house is yellow, but he really wants to get ahead of the curve in order to impress the

company he works for, where literally everything is green or teal, they are interchangeable

here.

He buys the teal car, and as he's driving home, he passes a group of people in another

Cadillac.

They are all wearing yellow.

This is the visual metaphor of him pulling out of the past into the future.

We know he's always craving green, since we see him carry around those green candies

he enjoys so much.

We know he's unsatisfied with his yellow wife and goes after Elisa, a green who is

much more innovative and forward thinking.

After he gets the car we start to see his family transition to green, at least in their

wardrobe, but his wife stays the same.

Elisa on the other hand may be painted as one of the most future oriented characters

because she is almost always seen in green and wears a large emerald throughout the movie.

The only time we see her regress to red is when she loses confidence and she's seen

crying in the locker room.

I also noticed that in Strickland's office there are three phones, red, black and green.

I'd have to see the movie again to remember who called on which phone, but I'm willing

to bet it plays into the color trends I've been pointing to.

Giles is also another example I can use.

He's going after the job to draw that Jello advertisement as I mentioned, and while doing

so he has cravings for Key Lime Pie, which is teal.

After getting rejected, he's feeling down, and reverts to ordering a red pie, it looked

like maybe cherry.

But when it comes to the heist, he knows he has to step up his game, and as he mentioned,

be brave like Elisa, so he wears green for that.

I could probably go on and on, because every shot in the movie is coded with these colors,

so let me know what you noticed in the comments.

It's mentioned that green and teal are perceived very similarly.

I would maybe call some of those shades, like the soap in the bathroom for example, more

of an aquamarine, because believe me.

I know that color.

I KNOW that color.

I KNOW.

THAT.

COLOR.

I think aquamarine is an appropriate color choice for such an aqua heavy movie.

Outside of the obvious, flood bursting out the bathroom door stuff, there were some interesting

and poetic uses uses of water in the movie, such as Strickland intentionally spilling

his glass of water to get to Elisa to come clean it up.

In doing so, he takes advantage of Elisa's love for the aquatic to try to seduce her.

As we know, it doesn't work, and Stickland is made an example of by another one of Elisa's

calendar quotes: "Life is but the shipwreck of our plans."

He is much like the Greek mythological figure, Tantalus, who Giles references earlier in

the movie.

He was made to stand in a pool of water beneath a fruit tree with low branches, with the fruit

ever eluding his grasp, and the water always receding before he could take a drink.

When Dimitri first meets the Russian spies at that one restaurant, they order Surf and

Turf.

This continues the trend of characters ordering the very thing they are going after.

The Russians want control over an amphibious creature, meaning he can get around underwater,

or on land.

Surf or turf.

The water may also foreshadow the connection shared by Elisa and Gabe.

We see early on that she loves the idea of being underwater.

This could have something to do with the fact that she's mute and you can only communicate

in sign under the surface.

But she dreams of living underwater before she ever meets Gabe.

And early on she's seen masturbating in the tub, which is the same place that she

ends up hiding Gabe, so that could allude to their sexual relationship.

And then the bathroom is the first place that they… well you get the picture.

And then finally we have the last quote of the film delivered by Giles.

"Unable to perceive the shape of you, I find you all around me."

He's talking about water, which as I mentioned in my last video, has no set molecular structure,

no shape; but when submerged, the subject is completely surrounded by it.

The story of the silent princess comes full circle, beginning and ending with her fully

submerged in water.

In both the opening and ending scenes, we see the next major motif, shoes.

One of Elisa's shoes can be seen floating in a closet in the opening dream sequence,

and when she joins Gabe in the ocean at the end of the journey the shoe is seen slipping

off her foot.

It's almost as if she's been dreaming about a fish person coming into her life and

sweeping her off her feet all along, but that's really weird to think about.

In the last video we talked about the idea of shoes representing her life on land and

her not needing them in ocean.

So the shoe slipping off her foot could represent her giving up her life on land.

I'm going to take that theory one step further, pun intended, and say that Elisa's shoes

represent her way of artistic expression and communication, and while living underwater,

no longer needs them.

Early on we see her cleaning the shoes to give that crisp tap sound, so when she's

prancing down the hall or tap dancing with Giles in front of the TV she expresses herself

rhythmically, or musically.

She's obviously interested in music and singing, as evidenced by her whistling and

the part where she actually speaks and imagines herself singing on a stage with Gabe.

We also see her literally using that tapping sound to communicate, like when she taps the

wall to get Giles attention or when Zelda asks her to tap the phone so she knows Elisa

is listening.

Whoa, hold up a second.

Time out.

How weird is it that I've been using this Legend of Zelda clip to demonstrate the extended

lifespan of amphibious fish people, and it turns out there's a character in this movie

named Zelda.

And on top of that, one of the characters in the movie is referred to as a princess.

AND on top of that, we have a silent protagonist who wears green!

Just wanted to point that out.

If you know what I'm talking about, leave a like on this video.

But anyways, back on topic here, Zelda complains when her feet are killing her while they are

working.

So if shoes are the thing that grounds you to the land on the surface and Elisa is ditching

them to be with her soulmate underwater, then Zelda's shoes must represent her marriage

to her husband, which we later find out is not a good situation.

Maybe I'm looking too far into that, I don't know.

I'm sure I'll hear it from you guys if I am.

Much of the movie has Gabe locked up, with Elisa and Zelda trying to get him to freedom.

Both characters have symbols of flying free on them.

Zelda has this bird pin that she wears during the breakout scene and there are also some

similar birds on the wall in her home.

Elisa has a butterfly jewel on her collar.

They had this wardrobe display setup at my theater, so here's better look.

Take this with a grain of salt, but Strickland tells Elisa he thinks he can make her squack,

which is possibly another bird reference?

In any event, we can infer that Strickland has no game… whatsoever.

Gabe on the other hand....

You know what?

That will probably never seem normal to me.

No matter how many times I see this movie.

One other thing that stood out to me was what appeared to be an Egyptian hieroglyphics design

on Giles's couch.

The ancient Egyptians are known for building the Sphinx and actually worshipping cats as

Gods.

You'll notice that Giles has over a million cats running around.

He has so many that it's not even that big of a deal when Gabe bites one of their heads

off.

That cat by the way, was named Pandora, which is another reference to Greek mythology.

According to Strickland, Gabe had been worshipped by the Amazonians as a God as well, before

he was captured in a river in South America.

And for those of you who are going to ask, yes, I do still think it's possible that

Gabe is unofficially the Creature from the Black Lagoon.

The information we got in the movie only furthers the notion, and when Gabe carries Elisa into

the water just before the credits rolled, I immediately got a flashback to the way the

the Creature picks up Kay and carries her in Creature from the Black Lagoon.

It almost had to be a nod from Del Toro.

But my point is that the Amazonians worshipped Gabe as divinity, and by the end of the movie,

he makes a case that he really is a God by healing some injuries John Coffee style, giving

Elisa the power to control water and possibly causing it to rain so that the canal would

fill up in time for the floodgates to open.

He's also captivated at the movie theater watching "The Story of Ruth", which I

haven't seen but apparently involves the worship of Gods and idols.

Did anyone catch that movie theater was supposedly "scientifically air conditioned?"

What does that even mean?

Anyways, let's see what we've got in here?

There are a couple of posters in the women's locker room at Oceam to analyse.

The first is simple a PSA by the City of Baltimore to save water.

The other says, "Loose lips might sink ships."

My first thought was the song XO, by Fall Out Boy, but given that the movie takes place

43 years before From Under the Cork Tree came out, I decided to look it up, and apparently

it was an actual piece of WWII propaganda, basically encouraging soldiers not to give

away their plan to the enemy.

I find the choice kind of ironic, considering that Elisa has no voice, due to her neck being

injured as a baby.

It's not entirely clear what happens at the end of the movie, but I got the sense

that her neck scars ended up being a blessing in disguise because Gabe turns them into gills.

It seemed to be like she was able to breath underwater at the end, but let me know how

you perceived it too.

It was also symbolic how Gabe stabs Strickland in the throat at the end, so that as Elisa

moves to a place where she doesn't need her voice, Strickland is silenced.

And if there's a meaning behind Strickland's death, I think his initial injury, where he

loses his fingers, is also significant.

He ends up losing his ring finger and his pinky finger.

The pinky represents a promise he made to his superior, General Hoyt, to protect the

asset, which he breaks.

The ring finger represents his marriage to his wife, with whom he is unfaithful.

He tries to reattach these fingers, to patch these mistakes that he has made.

But because his character is not genuine, they never mesh back in this his body and

he just ends up ripping them out again.

I just opened up the new CZsWorld merch store, there are some killer designs you're gonna

want to get your claws on, like CZsWorld and Kill, the CZsWorld Cafe and the classic logo

design.

I'm also going to give away a free merch item to one lucky contest winner.

All you have to do to enter is upload a picture of yourself with one item from the merch store

and tag @CZsWorld.

You can enter as many photos as you want with the same merch item.

Assuming we both survive.

Top 10 Batman The Merciless Shocking Facts - Duration: 5:06.

The Merciless Batman Shocking Facts Hey guys!

Welcome back to Top 10 Nerd, Iím Ron McKenzie-Lefurgey.

Iím back with another Dark Nights Metal spotlight, this time focusing on Batman: The Merciless.

This is my favourite of all the Metal Batmen, and hopefully this video will help you to

love him as much as me!

If it interests you, definitely check out the comics!

Iím really looking forward to seeing where they go.

Now get ready, itís time for the Top 10 Facts about Batman: The Merciless!

Number 10: Origin.

As always, letís start with how Bruce Wayne went bad.

This Bruce from Earth negative 12 battled alongside Wonder Woman against Ares, who had

created a new helmet that made him 100 times more powerful.

After Diana had seemingly been killed, Bruce grabbed the helmet in a last ditch effort

and defeated Ares.

While he knew the helmet could corrupt him, he used it with the intention of wielding

it mercifully with his set of rules.

Number 9: Powers.

After taking the helmet, Bruce unsurprisingly gained a whole whack of abilities.

Because he was the damned God of War.

He gained ridiculous strength and invulnerability, and the ability to manipulate his appearance.

He also seems to have some sort of telepathic powers, allowing him to see into the hearts

of others.

This was briefly mentioned by The Batman Who Laughs, so Iím not sure if itís a legit

power, but considering Ares had some telepathic ability, it wouldnít surprise me if itís

real.

Number 8: He was corrupted by the helmet of Ares.

While the helmet of Ares gives The Merciless a huge amount of power, it has a pretty significant

side effect: it corrupts its wearer.

It acts quickly, more on that later, and seems to corrupt them further over time.

I really like this, because it actually gives an explanation for why he would go soooo evil.

With Red Death, itís weird to me that he went so crazy so quickly, but here the helmet

actually corrupted him, so his transition is a lot more believable to me.

Number 7: He went on a rampage of justice.

Yeah, issue 1 is basically ìTerms of Enrampagement 2: Batman Editionî.

After putting on the helmet and defeating Ares, Bruce decided that peace and morality

werenít real, and he needed to bring his own form of justice to those who opposed him.

And he would do it with a big olí sword.

Number 6: He doesnít think heís evil.

This isnít particularly uncommon in the metal series, but itís definitely something that

should be mentioned.

The Merciless is aware that his views changed after putting on the helmet, and knows that

others see it as corruption.

But he sees it as purification; he was purged of the meddlesome moral system that was holding

him back, and is now able to enact justice in its purest form.

Is it original?

Not really, villains have been saying this for ages.

But itís definitely important to know moving forward, since it means he may be able to

be convinced otherwise.

Number 5: Tolkien vibes.

Yeah, if you havenít noticed by now, the helmet is basically The One Ring from Lord

of the Rings.

A powerful being creates something to increase his own power.

A brave warrior (Batman and Isildur) takes up the weapon to defeat the evil, but then

becomes corrupted by the weapon.

Granted, Batman ends up becoming an insanely powerful being while Isildur gets lit up with

arrows, but this is totally Lord of the Rings Batman.

And thatís why heís my favourite.

Number 4: He survived a blast that would have killed Superman.

The military had developed a weapon using a combination of Sonic Tech, Chemo Particles,

and Kryptonian Sunstones.

It was believed that nothing could survive it.

When The Merciless attacked, they used this Valhalla bomb as a last ditch effort to take

him out, dooming Gotham alongside him.

But when the smoke clearedÖ he was just chilling there without a scratch, having seemingly

absorbed the blast.

So we can probably add energy absorption to the list of powers.

What a boss.

Number 3: He killed Wonder Woman.

Wait, what?

I thought Ares killed her!

Nope, turns out she was alive, and tried to take the helmet from Bruce.

So he killed her.

This was a shock right at the end of the comic.

It showed how quickly the helmet was able to corrupt him, and that not even his love

for Diana could fight the helmet.

For now.

I suspect Wonder Woman Prime may be able to get to him by the end of the series.

Number 2: He still loves Diana.

Despite his intense corruption, and the fact that he, ya know, killed her, he does still

miss her, as can be seen in one panel of the comic.

This is a pretty big revelation; youíd think he would be void of any emotion by now, but

there still seems to be a place in his heart for Wonder Woman.

This is part of why I think she will eventually manage to convince him to change his ways.

Bruce Wayneís still in there, dammit!

Number 1: Heís still evil even without the helmet.

As I was reading the comic, when I saw that the helmet was corrupting him, I was soooo

sure that getting the helmet off him would be a big plot point.

I was like ìOh sweet, theyíll get the helmet off him and heíll go back to normal and join

the good guys.

But then he went and took it off, and was still bad.

There goes that theory.

He looks awesome without the helmet though.

Thatís it for today!

Hope you guys enjoyed, if you did please smack that thumbs up button and subscribe to Top

10 Nerd for more videos!

Whoís your favourite Batman from Metal?

Let me know in the comment section down below!

Merciless is definitely mine, although Dawnbreakerís Parallax-looking dudes are some of the coolest

things Iíve ever seen in comics.

Until next time, Iím Ron McKenzie-Lefurgey with Top 10 nerd.

This is Fine. (TF2 Commentary) - Duration: 6:38.

Hey, guys, LazloBibbins here coming at you with a gameplay commentary in the year 2017

Seems like no one does these anymore, and you know what, I kind of feel lazy doing them

and yes, I know my name's Lazypurple... but please don't comment that... just...

Please, no more of that joke.

I only wanna do commentaries when I really have something to talk about, and boy do I.

See, I was gonna upload another big TF2 project this week, but it turns out... that everything's on fire!

We're currently dealing with the Thomas fire in california, which started about five days ago... I think

It almost immediately caused a blackout that stretched for hundreds of miles. so i definitely couldn't work for a couple days.

But I thought that'd be it, I mean the fire was hundreds of miles away from me, so that- what's the worst that could happen?

Turns out that this is one of the worst fires ever witnessed in California

and at one point it was spreading an entire acre per second!

I can't even imagine what that looks like!

And it's not just one fire anymore. Thanks to crazy 70 mile-an-hour winds and dry conditions there are something like

Five different fires going on right now, with one of them being 30 miles away from me

So uh, queue up that Pyro gameplay, am I right?

If there's any way to deal with the potential loss of all your worldly possessions, it's humor!

If i'm gonna be the victim of natural disaster, at least i'm gonna get some

I had to pick up my dad from the airport earlier, and the same mountains that I have driven by a hundred times before

Were totally burnt through. I've got some really awful footage here of it

Courtesy of my dad's amazing camerawork.

It was so close to the freeway that we felt the heat as we drove by

The wind was so strong driving along the coast, that these huge blasts of sand were being picked up from the beach and blasting my car

They were like sand ghosts haunting the freeway in the night... it was not the most comfortable situation

But I'd like to paint a picture for you of what it's like to live in fire country.

You might've heard about how often fires happen in California,

but you might not know all the side effects... so what's it like having a raging fire thirty miles away?

It's basically nuclear winter. The entire sky is just smoke.

Everything is just smoke. It looks like fog on a camera but the thing about smoke

Is that it causes this crazy orange discoloration.

All day, there's just this ominous, orange glow, on everything.

Pictures don't do it justice

Everything looks like it has a sepia-tone Instagram filter on it.

The sky is orange, the horizon is orange... anything white looks orange.

And to add on to the nuclear winter effect, by 4:00 p.m.

The sun can barely get through the smoke anymore... it's pretty much nighttime by then.

At... four o'clock!

Like, the days are six hours long.

If you look up at the sun it's almost always this horrible orange, or even worse

Just. Red.

Don't worry it's just a picture you won't hurt your eyes looking at it

And as if it couldn't be more of a nuclear winter, it is practically snowing ash.

All over the floor, all over the cars, white and gray ash

just keeps piling up and getting into everything.

I just opened my front door and it is literally snowing ash.

It's not a gradual build-up, it's- it's- you, visible

You can see it, it's impossible to exaggerate.

This is not what i had in mind when i was dreaming of a white Christmas!

Everyone outside is wearing breathing masks like they do in China.

It's like this crazy, apocalyptic Mad Max scenario where

no one can breathe the air, everyone could burst into flames at any moment, and people just have to go to work still

because maybe everything's gonna be okay.

And the worst part, that it's not just this one fire that is the problem

conditions are so bad across the coast

in terms of how dry everything is and how fast the winds are blowing...

it seems like, at any moment, any city could just be next.

It just seriously, unironically, feels like the apocalypse.

I just looked outside the window again

and I- I can't believe it, it just doesn't look real...

which i guess is a great segue into

my thoughts on the current state of Pyro

(crowd laughing)

It's funny, because if the winds pick up, my whole town could catch on fire

Alright, well, as many others have documented:

the problem with Pyro is that he is in a really buggy state right now.

The backburner is a total mess, you can't see through the flamethrower particles half the time,

and it seems like no one has a good idea of how long the flamethrower hitboxes last.

But is Pyro overpowered?

Surprisingly, no.

Honestly I tried my hardest to only play pyro today to get a feeling

for how powerful the flamethrower is, and I just couldn't do it.

There were so many times where I knew that, if I didn't switch to Demoman,

we were never gonna make it past a chokepoint.

Or, if i didn't switch to scout, I knew I'd never be in enough places at once to really have an impact.

I never felt like: "Oh yeah, this is the PERFECT time to go pyro."

There are still 101 things that pyro cannot do

So I'm definitely not gonna be calling for some kind of direct nerf...

what I would love to see is that they fix all this buggy garbage surrounding Pyro

and then tune up the Thermal Thrusters so that pyro can have an actual mobility option

See, I say pyro's not overpowered, but i'm not stupid. I know that this is what people have issues with:

*trap music picking up*

Yep, three kills.

See, this is the eternal struggle for any class in any game that can succeed without aiming

No matter how much positioning it requires, no matter how many interesting abilities the character has...

someone, somewhere is gonna feel cheated when they die to it.

I have felt this feeling hundreds of times dying to Pyro

Oh, you know: "He didn't even have to aim at all, how is that fair?"

But until Pyro somehow becomes stronger than, say, Scout, I'm not gonna worry.

And that day is far, far away.

Hopefully, when the TF2 team sorts out all these kinks, Pyro will feel more consistent

and people can focus on outplaying Pyros

instead of wondering how they died to them.

That's really all i have to say on the matter.

And if you have been affected by these fires, or a natural disaster,

my heart goes out to you.

I just checked and 190,000 people have been evacuated

That's... crazy.

If- if you feel compelled to help these people, you can

literally just Google "donate california fires" and Google will handle it for you

Like, they just provide a button. It's pretty impressive.

I don't mean to trivialize what's going on, I'm just hoping that

this is another lucky day for me and it's just a near-miss

and i can keep working on videos.

if everything goes alright

My next TF2 project should be out real soon,

so stay safe and stay tuned.

Thanks for watching! Here's another video for you, and if you really enjoyed this video make sure to subscribe and hit the bell

[ENG SUB] 171209 Sound of War S2 Ep8 CUT - Hua Chenyu "Dad, I'm Home" - Duration: 9:19.

The song he is challenging is Jay Chou's

<Dad, I'm Home>

Jiayou!

Actually him (opponent) having picked out

<Dad, I'm Home> this song for me,

It has instead put me in a dilemma.

Right now this song,

Is one that I'm good with in everyone's eyes.

But I want to play a style that I've never tried before.

It is quite risky.

It is quite,

I'm not sure if the audience will be able to feel it.

We'll have to see how it goes tomorrow.

Towards the end (of the song) you'll have to bring (the emotions) up a little bit.

Unless he conducts everyone,

That'd work.

[Joining in last minute]

[The music director conducts in person]

I hope the audience will be able to think of this song

as my version,

And not of that I'm singing Jay Chou's song.

Teacher An!

Let's welcome Hua Chenyu to come on stage for battle!

With this song,

I used a very different art style in expressing it.

It might be a little different from what everyone thinks of.

I hope everyone can like it.

I heard that usually after a war,

Peace comes in exchange.

But why, do I keep seeing my dad hit my mum?

Just because he's drunk,

He can take his anger out on my mum?

I can't stand watching it happen each time,

Yet I can't do anything about it.

I was still too young back then.

Ever since I was little,

I could feel warmth only from my mother.

I am always thinking,

why is my dad so fierce?

Even till now, I haven't found the answer.

If I really had a pair of wings that could take me away anytime,

I will definitely, secretly bring my mum

And leave this house.

Don't hit my mum like that,

Will you listen to what I'm saying?

Don't hit my mum like that,

Doesn't your hand hurt?

Truthfully in other families, other people's fathers,

There will surely be a reason for the various causes of violence.

However,

My mother and I did nothing wrong,

Yet we still can't escape from the clutches of violence.

To think that I still call you 'dad'.

From young you've always asked me to look up to you as a role model and learn from you,

So many false illusions.

Mum often says,

"You have to be good,

"You have to be good, listen to your father more."

You tell me, how can I listen to you.

How can I be like you?

How can I be like you?

How can I be like you?!

How can I be like you...

Don't hit my mum like that,

Will you listen to what I'm saying?

Don't hit my mum like that,

Doesn't your hand hurt?

Doesn't your hand hurt?

Don't hit my mum like that,

Will you listen to what I'm saying?

Don't hit my mum like that,

I still want to call you,

'Dad'.

This is what is meant by "a singer who excels in singing also turns to acting".

What the music brings out is the inner monologue

Of our male lead Hua Chenyu.

In just 24hrs,

How were you able to change Jay Chou

Into Hamlet?

It really is amazing.

Actually there are many ways to express art.

Previously I've always been telling everyone a story

Using the method of singing.

So this time I'm using the method of telling a story,

To sing for everyone.

And I also hope everyone will like a performance like this.

I have to especially thank Teacher An.

He isn't only just our overall music director,

He even conducted.

So, yes, especially thankful to Teacher An.

Simon Mignolet warns Liverpool only their best will do against resurgent Everton ● News Now ● #LFC - Duration: 2:15.

Goalkeeper Simon Mignolet insists Liverpool have to "deliver the total package" to maintain

their winning run in the Merseyside derby.

Everton arrive on Sunday having failed to win at Anfield since 1999 and not won any

of the last 13 Premier League matches at either ground since the 2-0 success in 2010.

The Toffees have been rejuvenated since Sam Allardyce was brought in as new manager last

week with three back-to-back wins but Liverpool are currently on a different level.

Their 7-0 Champions League demolition of Spartak Moscow on Wednesday made it 32 goals in nine

games in all competitions since the loss at Tottenham with five Premier League wins and

a draw during that time.

Liverpool's front four of Mohamed Salah, Sadio Mane, Roberto Firmino and Philippe Coutinho

are all in top form but Mignolet said they need to maintain that this weekend.

"We are in a good moment.

We had a good result in the week but that was only about getting ourselves qualified,"

he told Press Association Sport.

"We have to prove ourselves again to try to win the derby.

We've always had good results at home against Everton but now the fact Sam Allardyce has

just arrived means it will be a different fixture.

In addition to the goals raining in at one end Liverpool have shored things up at the

other, conceding just three in the league since shipping four against Spurs in late

September.

Their record at home is even better this season with five clean sheets and just two conceded

in seven matches at Anfield.

Mignolet believes that is testament to an all-round team effort, starting with the men

up front.

Irish Music Stories Podcast Episode 01: Trip to Sligo - Duration: 35:06.

>> SHANNON: I'm Shannon Heaton,

and this is Irish Music Stories.

It's the show about traditional music,

and the much bigger stories behind it. [MUSIC: "The Tap Room", Dan Gurney (accordion), Shannon Heaton (flute), Matt Heaton (guitar)]

>> SHANNON: Like why 400,000 people, including a band of 8-15 year olds from Boston,

would head to the "All Ireland Fleadh," a contest featuring top traditional musicians from around the globe.

Musicians like Cormac Gaj.

Cormac plays flute and uilleann pipes (the Irish bagpipes)

with a group of kids from Boston who competed in the 2015 All Ireland Fleadh.

>> CORMAC: It was massive! They took over this giant auditorium.

There must have been at least 1500 people there. All there for this one competition.

>> SHANNON: In this episode, you'll hear more about Cormac's experience in the big Irish music competition,

and what it meant to him.

And to all the parents, teachers, and peers

who were in on the qualifying round in New Jersey,

and the big All Ireland finals in County Sligo.

[MUSIC: "Grúpaí Ceoil Theme," production music with Matt Heaton (guitar]

>> SHANNON: I'll also take you to Comhaltas branches (Irish music schools) in Boston and in Dublin.

And to Mary MacNamara's kitchen in Tulla.

That's Mary's little town in County Clare, where she teaches music

and organizes exchanges between Tulla kids and young musicians like Cormac.

And I promise, whether you already play the fiddle,

or you don't know anything about traditional music or dance,

this story (and the amazing and incredibly charming people you'll meet)..

well, it's not just about Ireland and Irish music.

[MUSIC fades]

>> SHANNON: But Irish music is where the story begins.

And Cormac loves playing it.

Now, his dad is from Ireland.

But Cormac was born in Cambridge, Massachusetts.

Playing music that came from Ireland is a big part of Cormac's life.

His family has taken him to countless Irish sessions (music gatherings).

And he's met a lot of other kids through the local Comhaltas branch,

which offers music classes at St. Columbkille's Partnership school in Brighton, Mass.

[playground noise]

>> SHANNON: During the week, St Columbkille's is a Catholic grade school.

And for 6 hours every Saturday, it becomes an Irish music zone, for students of all ages.

[sounds of walking down the halls, sounds of people speaking Irish]

>> SHANNON: When you walk down the halls, you hear people speaking Irish.

There are signs on all the classroom doors for the various instrument classes.

[sounds of walking upstairs, group singing]

[teacher says, "good job! Let's try that first verse again"]

>> SHANNON: I'm right outside Mairin Ui Cheide's room.

She teaches sean nós (or old style) singing here.

So I'm walking in…

>> MAIRIN: Hello! This is Shannon Heaton! Conás átá tú!!

[dude pokes his head in]

>> DUDE: I'm looking for tin whistle?

>> MAIRIN: Tin Whistle? Well, there isn't a high whistler or a low whistler here!

>> DUDE: All right, I'll ask at the Comhaltas office…

>> SHANNON: I asked Mairin, as the Irish speaker in the room, to define Comhaltas.

>> MAIRIN: Comhaltas means a gathering, or a group.

It's a gathering of everybody who's interested in the Irish culture, be it whatever instrument or our traditional style of singing.

>> SHANNON: Is this serious business?

>> MAIRIN: Oh, yes, very serious! And you teach children that there's a WONDERFUL world outside of America's got talent! Hahahah!

>> SHANNON: After I left Mairin's class and bid adieu to the school in Brighton, I talked to Seamus Connolly.

Seamus was named National Heritage Fellow in 2013, and he led a big event called the Gaelic Roots Festival.

Later he served as Artist in Residence at Boston College for over a decade.

And he can really play the fiddle.

[MUSIC: "I'm Waiting for You" from Seamus Connolly (fiddle), and Charlie Lennon (piano), recorded on The Banks of the Shannon, Grn Lnt, 1993.]

>> SHANNON: When Seamus first came to the States in 1976, he taught for the Boston Comhaltas,

helping students prepare for the Fleadh, before Irish music was searchable on the Internet.

>> SEAMUS: I honestly do believe that Comhaltas are responsible for a lot of the great music played today.

And of course musicians, they interpret it in their own way.

But they got the basis from Comhaltas.

And I think Comhaltas are to be complimented.

>> SHANNON: Seamus is not shy to admit that competitions weren't always his cup of tea.

>> SEAMUS: When I was growing up competition-wise, I felt like I was boxed in very much.

I felt like I had to adhere to a certain way of playing. But I suppose that has to happen to put somebody on the right track.

And then you're freer when you're done with competitions, you know?

>> SHANNON: But competitions are something to do. And they're what brought Cormac and his peers together,

working toward a goal, going through the process of preparation, traveling together.

Competition or no, this is what sharing the music is all about for Seamus.

>> SEAMUS: There's a sense of closeness and camaraderie about all of it. It's not all to be kept in a box.

It's to be shared with people, and we can all learn from one other.

The friendships that we make in it, you know? So it's the music that brings all of us together.

[MUSIC: "Heartstrings Theme," production music from Matt Heaton (guitar)

>> SHANNON: Indeed, it's brought a LOT of people together. There are now 420 Comhaltas branches all over the world.

The head office is in Dublin's Monkstown neighborhood. So I hopped across the pond from Boston to Dublin.

My friend Lisa Coyne and I rented a car. In fact, our car rental guy reminded us, with a wink, to "DRIVE ON THE RIGHT!"

He gave us this moment. We both looked pretty puzzled, before he said "GOTCHA!"

Man, Welcome to Ireland. NO car company would joke about the side of the road in the States.

So, we drove ON THE LEFT to the head Comhaltas office, just a few blocks in from the coast.

[music ends, birds begin singing]

>> SHANNON: Now, Lisa knows all about Comhaltas. Her kids play fiddle and accordion, and they've been in classes along with Cormac.

Lisa herself has taught flute and whistle in Brighton.

When we arrived at Comhaltas HQ in Dublin, Lisa looked over the new trad releases in the store front.

[birds chirp, and footsteps echo on stairway]

>> SHANNON: Administrator and Flute Player, Siobhán Ní Chonaráin took me up to the second floor.

We chatted in a classroom with a massive ceiling.

She talked about how Comhaltas has grown over the years.

>> SIOBHÁN: 1951 was the foundation of Comhaltas Ceoltóiri Éireann in Mullingar.

There was a whole joining of people of likeminded ideals and commitment to the music.

And it grew from that to the extent that it is now an international organization with 420 branches.

>> SHANNON: So, Comhaltas is the institutionalized arm of Irish music.

And one focus, for many of the branches, is preparation for the regional contests.

First and second place provincial winners can go on to compete at the All Ireland Fleadh.

>> SIOBHÁN: Well, Fleadh Cheoil na h'Éireann is a phenomenal undertaking.

At its core, of course, we have the competitions. And all of these competitors come from the world over,

having qualified from their various provincial qualifying Fleadhanna Cheoil.

[MUSIC: "Travel Theme," production music from Matt Heaton

>> SHANNON:There are seven regional qualifying contests: four from the Provinces of Ireland, the All Britain,

and two in North America (one in the Midwest, and one in the MidAtlantic, which is where Boston students like Cormac compete).

>> SHANNON: And then what would be, say, a very popular event at the All Ireland?

>> SIOBHÁN: Obviously, the reputation and the whole awareness of the Senior Ceili Band competition: it's a given that at this stage it's seen as the accolade.

[Guitar strums last chord]

>> SHANNON:The Ceili BAND.

It's the Irish version of a big band. Formed in pre-amplification days, to play in dance halls,

Ceili Bands feature fiddles, accordions, flutes, banjos, concertinas, uilleann pipes…

all playing unison melodies, with a rhythm section of piano and minimal drum kit (with occasional woodblock).

[MUSIC: "The Imperial Set, from Live in Lisdoonvarna from the Kilfenora Céilí Band with live dancing, (Torc Music, 2002)]

>> SHANNON:Ceili bands are still a big thing.

And at the All Ireland Fleadh, it's sort of like the figure skating of the Irish music Olympics.

Once all the solo and duo contests and singing rounds have played out, participants pile into a big venue to take in the hotly contested Ceili Band championship.

To see WHO will be knighted

KING of the Ceili Bands that year.

I mean, when you see the photo of the 2015 All Ireland winners, the Shandrum Ceili Band from Cork,

the guys are all wearing black pants, vests, and Chuck All Stars. And they have awesome haircuts.

And the women are all wearing matching blue dresses. It could totally be an ad for a mobile phone network.

Only they're all holding accordions and fiddles.

[MUSIC ENDS with applause]

>> SIOBHÁN: You know, we're delighted that that competition has reached the profile that it has.

An awful lot… a very large number of musicians and teachers, mentors and branches,

would have been very involved in the Grúpaí Ceol competition for many years,

which allows the potential of up to 20 people to take part, instead of ten.

>> SHANNON:The Grúpaí Ceol (which means music group in the Irish language) has a slightly looser format than the Ceili Band.

Competitors have eight minutes to fill, however they choose. Instrumentation is up for grabs.

There's an emphasis on creativity. There's room for more musicians, too. Up to 20 per group.

[MUSIC: "Grúpaí Ceoil Theme," Reprise]

>> SHANNON:No matter the category, the competitors for the All Ireland Fleadh come from

Comhaltas branches around the world. Overseas competitors who can't make it to a qualifying Fleadh, can apply to be evaluated to compete.

That's how two groups from Tokyo came to the 2016 Fleadh.

Independent musicians and schools can ALSO register to participate.

[MUSIC FADES]

>> SHANNON:After a few nights of tunes and hilarious reunions with friends in Dublin and Galway,

Lisa and I moved on to County Clare, home of the rocky Burren wilderness area,

the scenic Cliffs of Moher, and legendary musicians and music festivals.

And surprisingly good coffee.

We were on our way to see independent teacher and concertina player Mary MacNamara in Tulla.

[MUSIC: Jennifer Molloy's" (Jig), from Mary MacNamara, recorded Live at the Burren with the Trad Youth Exchange]

>> SHANNON:From her home in Tulla, Mary teaches concertina and prepares students to compete.

She has help from Alan Kelly on flute, and her daughter Sorcha and Eileen O'Brien on fiddle.

They follow Comhaltas rules, but they're totally independent.

And in addition to preparing students for the Fleadh, Mary also organizes music exchanges between her students in Tulla,

and groups abroad, like the Shetland Islands, Norway,

and Boston, with Cormac and his peers.

I had a chance to speak with Mary and her husband Kevin about the Boston exchange in their kitchen.

[MUSIC Fades]

>> SHANNON: Lisa made tea in the background, and piped in from time to time,

since she was the U.S. instigator for the Boston-Tulla exchange.

[sounds of making tea and talking in background]

>> MARY: It was a great experience. Because for most of them, they would never have been out of the country before, certainly not in America.

The best memories for them is being in the underground trains. And every day we had 3 and 4 of them to take.

Trying to get 30 people on and off at the right time and right station. We were constantly counting.

They thought it was very exciting.

>> SHANNON: You send them tunes, they send you tunes?

>> MARY: So I sent off a bunch of sets of tunes. I sent them to Lisa. And she sent me over another bunch.

It is my job to make sure that the kids know the stuff. And it is her job to make sure it is given out to the individual teachers.

So the first thing when they meet,

whether it is in Boston or Norway or Shetland or wherever,

they can sit down and immediately play together.

>> SHANNON: They have a common language?

>> MARY: They have a common language. It's the most important part of the exchange. Wouldn't you agree, Kevin?

>> KEVIN: I would.

>> SHANNON: And what about the Boston kids then coming here?

>> MARY: When they came here then, they were staying in Bodyke in the the middle of the countryside.

We had a big 59-seater coach.The problem was getting the 59-seater coach down the little bog road to the cottages where we were staying.

So all the Boston kids were looking out the windows saying "look, there's grass in the middle of the road!"

And the bus can barely fit! So from that to the underground in Boston. I think for both sets of the kids, that was the thrill.

The difference between both places. You know, the experience of how to get from A to B.

[MUSIC: "Travel Theme" Reprise]

>> SHANNON: Another highlight on the Irish side of the exchange was the trad disco

that Mary set up for the kids.

A local DJ spun Ceili Band albums, and all the kids did simple Irish social dances together.

>> MARY: I organized the trad disco because I think dancing, it's a great way for interaction.

They're all great musicians. But I find when people are sitting down playing in sessions,

there isn't much opportunity for interaction. So the dancing is a great way to get people up,

dancing together, talking together, moving around the floor together.

So they had learned some dances, but they were fun dances, like two-hand dances, and The Haymaker's Jig.

And it was okay if people went wrong, So that was a big hit, because the kids were freeing up with each other.

>> LISA: And actually, that was the cover of the album

>> MARY: The cover of the album!

>> SHANNON: That was Lisa. She was talking about the live recording the kids made at the Burren,

one of Boston's best-known Irish pubs.

[MUSIC: "Joe Cooley's Reel," from the Trad Youth Exchange)]

>> SHANNON: A few hours later, I asked fiddle player Rosa Carroll about the Irish side of the exchange.

She's one of the musicians on the album.

>> SHANNON: What'd you think of the program? Did you enjoy it?

>> ROSA: Yeah, I loved it so much. We just had loads of fun. We did loads of activities,

played in sessions, made great friends. We still are great friends today.

And then they came back to us in Feakle and Tulla. We did more concerts. We went to Bunratty…

Yeah, we just did loads of activities.

>> SHANNON: After the activities and concerts of the exchange, Cormac and his friends back in Boston stayed busy.

>> CORMAC: Well, what now what do we do? We've got all these tunes lying around.

Might as well do something for those tunes that we had. So we just pulled together the group.

>> SHANNON: They pulled the group together with a lot of help.

With help from fiddle player Séan Clohessy, who coached the kids and arranged for them to compete in the Mid Atlantic Fleadh.

Tin whistle player Kathleen Conneelly and other Comhaltas teachers chipped in.

They helped prepare the Boston Grúpaí Cheoil.

They'd enter in the U15 category: the Under 15 category for 12-15 year olds. But some of the kids weren't even 12.

So really, some were punching above their weight. They called the group Realta Gaela,

which is Irish for bright stars.

[MUSIC: Grúpaí Ceol Theme Reprise]

>> SHANNON: Now, taking a group down to New Jersey to compete… this was kind of a big deal for Boston.

Unlike their competitors in Pearl River, NY and St. Cecilia's parish in NJ,

Boston didn't have a track record of competing.

>> CORMAC: Anyway, so we figured we'd just head down there, just to meet some people.

Just for the fun of it.

>> SHANNON: Nobody expected Boston to win. They were in it for the experience and the learning.

And the hotel pool.

They'd worked hard in Brighton.

But they also horsed around between classes. They jumped on gym mats stacked in the hallway.

They acted like kids. They took breaks from the tunes.

When fiddle player Liz Carroll was growing up in Chicago, she went to the Irish Musicians' Association to play tunes.

And to play around with other kids.

I had a chance to eat blueberries in Liz's kitchen, and hear a few stories about her early days with the fiddle.

[MUSIC: "Heartstrings Theme" production music by Matt Heaton (guitar)]

>> LIZ: My early memories are of going to a pub, and it was on Ashland Avenue, right off of 55th street.

It had a pub on the first floor. And there were meetings of the Irish Musicians' Association on the second floor.

And I remember that there was a player piano on the first floor—very attracted to that.

And going upstairs meant a round group of people playing.

And I remember sitting in the back, of rather a dusty room with a wood floor...

...and people playing, and just picking out my fiddle and sitting in the back.

I could put that fiddle away and run around for an hour.

And I could hear a tune in the distance, maybe that I kind of knew or I liked.

And I could run up and take my fiddle out, you know and stay there for a while.

Very nice existence, Shannon! Hahaha!

[END MUSIC]

>> SHANNON: As I traveled around Chicago and Ireland, I kept Cormac's story in mind.

From Chicago to Boston to Tulla…

[MUSIC: Travel Theme reprise]

>> SHANNON: There are so many Independent teachers, and music clubs, and Comhaltas branches.

And that's where the All Ireland competitors come from. There are groups from Australia, Luxembourg, Chile.

And I imagine they all have their own stories. And rivalries.

Here's Cormac's account of the day Realta Gaela competed in the MidAtlantic Fleadh.

Remember, only first and second place winners go on to compete in the All Ireland.

Cormac and I were talking at a holiday party.

At this point in our conversation, a few family members and friends had sat down to take in the story.

[END MUSIC]

>> CORMAC: There were two other teams competing, two other bands. And they're pretty big deals.

They practice for pretty much the whole year leading up to the Fleadh.

We figured our band would be lucky to get third.

They got up there, completely serious.

One of them even had, like, a custom shirt for each one of them, complete with the name of the music school on the front and the back.

[Laughter]

>> PHOEBE: Yeah, and I think it's the type of competition that if there are three teams,

if you're not good enough to be awarded third place, they will just award first and second.

>> SHANNON:That was Cormac's mom, Phoebe.

>> CORMAC: They don't even have to give anybody anything.

So we figured we'd just got there for the fun of it. Just play a few tunes and then leave.

So after we get up there and play, at least half the team leaves to go to the swimming pool.

I stuck around for the awards. And when they announced one of the bands in third place,

everyone looked at each other. We thought, "did we actually get SECOND?"

And then they announced second place. You figured, "oh that's bad. Nobody got first!"

[Groans.]

>> CORMAC: And, honestly, the whole place just exploded when they said that we'd gotten First!!

>> FRIEND IN ROOM: So, half of your people were still at the swimming pool at that point?

>> CORMAC: At least they'd changed.

>> PHOEBE: I think they had come. But in the photo, a bunch of kids are in bathing suits.

You know, in tee shirts and bathing suits, holding a tennis ball—because they were ready to go play.

>> SHANNON: Hahaha! That's so great!

Yeah, it's a great Bad News Bears story. But it doesn't end there.

The kids went on to raise money and try their luck in Ireland, where they'd face MANY more competitors.

[MUSIC: "Triumph Theme," production music by Matt Heaton (guitar)]

>> SHANNON: Irish musicians and teachers from all over the world.. thousands of players invest all this time preparing for the Fleadh.

All this, and there's no money in winning the competition.

And the Comhaltas pay scale for teachers is, well, quite modest.

So what drives people?

I asked Cormac what he thought.

>> CORMAC: These people tend to find the competition, and the ones who aren't interested don't really…

...it's not like anyone's pushing them to go to the competition.

They're going because they want to compete against people and be the best.

>> SHANNON: For many of the teachers who are passing on the tunes, it's a mission.

Here's Boston singing teacher Mairin Ui Cheide again.

>> MAIRIN: I think it's incumbent upon me to give, like I was given.

I was fortunate that I had come from a musical family that passed songs on for generations.

So now it's my turn to pass this on, because it IS important.

[END MUSIC]

>> SHANNON: Because Irish singing and instrumental tunes are commonly passed on by ear, directly from one player or teacher to the next,

it is a pretty profound living link between the people who played the tune before, and people who are playing it now.

In this way, it's not so much about any one player or time period. It's older. It's bigger.

Now, as charming and timeless as giving and handing down music is,

sometimes Irish music is passed on less directly.

[MUSIC: "Grúpaí Ceol Theme Reprise"]

>> MAIRIN: I teach by ear, and then I send an mp3.

After all it's 2017! The Bard can't travel to Cape Cod and Brighton and Braintree and Milton. It'd take me all day.

So it's much easier to send it via mp3. Then they can download it on all their devices.

[MUSIC ENDS]

>> SHANNON: And sometimes it's even more remote than getting a sound file from your own teacher.

Some people are learning songs and tunes from random YouTube videos.

And remember, these guys can apply to compete, too.

But they might not have the same context as, say, the Boston kids, who DO get to meet Marin in person on Saturdays, right?

I asked singer Karan Casey what she thinks about learning traditional music in isolation.

You'll hear a lot more from Karan next month, in our one on one Cuppa Tea chat.

>> SHANNON: And what about people learning it online?

>> KARAN: Yeah, absolutely! Any way you can. Any access, any way you can.

You just have to go out there and really follow the threads and the streams.

There's great information out there. There's people on Mudcat Cafe. They've all the different versions.

They know more about it than I do!

>> SHANNON: Yeah, you mean the MudCat online discussion group? That's an amazing song database.

You think it's cool to get songs that way? Can you really learn online and in isolation?

>> KARAN: I mean, I do think if you can befriend someone. I had the privilege of befriending Frank Harte.

And you know, if anyone wants to come to come to my house for a cup of tea and learn a few songs,

they're welcome.

And that, you know. That's the way it works.

Of course do the stuff online.

But I think if we can reach out to one another and establish more connection that way, it's really good.

>> SHANNON: So, most people who learn Irish music make connections.

And unless you're really learning in isolation and you never find a social context for your tunes and songs,

you're bound to meet people with a similar connection to the tunes, to the rules, to the conventions.

There's shared humor and respect for very particular details when you go deep like that.

And when you go to a Fleadh, you'll find a room full of people:

the competitors, and also the onlookers, the parents, and the judges

who are all in on the style and the prevailing fashions.

Here's Liz Carroll again. She'd started out at the Irish Music Association in Chicago;

went on to win the All Ireland fiddle championship;

and has this story about the finer points of woodblock playing,

and what happened when one group of musicians went off book.

>> LIZ: There was a moment that I have on tape, actually. A ceili band had won in Ireland.

I want to say it was the Bridge Ceili Band. So now they're being presented.

So on my little cassette tape, it's "Winners: Bridge Ceili Band."

[cassette tape]

The band usually had to play a dance that night. But I think this was just the moment when they play a tune.

They've just won,they've all grabbed their instruments, they're up on the stage, and they start in.

Couple of taps, and off they go.

[MUSIC: two taps into "High Part of the Road" (Jig), live recording of Bridge Ceili Band made by Liz (1976)]

>> LIZ: At the time, it was not cool to play the block.

So, they go into the second part.

And the drummer goes to the block.

[laughter]

>> LIZ: On the tape there's this murmur...

into a well...

into a CHEER!!

It's like one of the best things I've ever heard!

That whole room knew. This is a room full of musicians, their families.

Everybody knew when he went to the block.

Hahahaha!

[END MUSIC]

>> SHANNON: That's what happens when the village invests.

[MUSIC: "Travel Theme" Reprise]

>> SHANNON: When everybody knows about the tradition, a woodblock can really convey something.

Because everybody's bothered to learn about the music.

And about the tunes.

The tunes.

The tunes.

The tunes!

There are so many tunes.

And these Boston kids learned a lot of tunes.

They took those tunes, and formed Realta Gaela.

They took the group to the MidAtlantic Fleadh and enjoyed an unexpected victory.

They raised money and went on to the All Ireland Fleadh in County Sligo.

So, how did the Boston kids do in Ireland?

Well, in short, they didn't even place.

>> SHANNON: What was Sligo like? Were there lots of kids competing in the Grúpaí Ceol.

>> CORMAC: Yes, it was massive. They took over this giant auditorium.

There must have been at least 1500 people there.

>> SHANNON: What was it like to be in that room with 1500 people?

Here's Cormac's mom Phoebe again.

>> PHOEBE: Oh, the tension was so thick. Yeah.

That atmosphere where I feel like people are listening for the mistakes.

And you start to see other people giving 'the look' in the audience. It's like, I can't even enjoy it.

>> CORMAC: No one else we really knew from before was competing.

>> SHANNON: But the Boston kids weren't alone.

Their friends from Tulla, the kids who had taught them some of their competition tunes were right there in that room.

[MUSIC: "Triumph Theme" Reprise]

>> CORMAC: There were a bunch of people we'd met back in the exchange cheering us on.

Just like a little speck out in the audience.

>> SHANNON: So, was it worth all the effort and expense?

I asked Cormac and his mom what they thought.

>> PHOEBE: I think it was nice to get to know the other kids, as well as the teachers, through the exchange program first.

Where the focus was really on building community through music.

And the competition was so clearly secondary.

So, I think if the competition had come first, that might have felt a little different. But starting with that was really nice.

>> CORMAC: A lot of people compete. They get there for the competition, they compete.

Then after that you forget about it for another year. And that's when you hang out with other people. Just go down to the pub for a session.

[END MUSIC]

>> SHANNON: Here's Siobhán Ní Chonaráin from Comhaltas.

>> SIOBHÁN: It provides them and their parents with an opportunity to come to this festival

with so many like-minded people and families, many of them much further on, in that sense of development. They are entering into a community.

[MUSIC: "Travel Theme" Reprise]

>> SHANNON: Back in Boston, Mairin Ui Cheide talks more about that community feeling that grows by going to the Fleadh.

>> MAIRIN: You can go across the Atlantic to Ireland to participate.

And it's an experience that's forever with you.

>> SHANNON: It's not just about the competition?

>> MAIRIN: Oh, no! The competition is just the minor part of it.

It's the people you meet, the music you hear, and the relationships you build.

And the community that you belong to after going to a Fleadh. It's very different.

>> SHANNON: You've all been there? You've all run the marathon?

>> MAIRIN: Yes, you may have been the slowest one in the marathon, but that's okay.

You finished. You reached your goal. You got to the end!

And that's what sustains you as a human being: to belong.

And belonging in our community of musicians, especially Irish musicians….

You know, Ireland is such a small country. But the impact that its people has had all over the world, is… you know, you can't contain it!

It keeps growing, and growing.

And it keeps on growing.

And it's wonderful.

And to start so young and to be part of that..

of the seedlings of that. I think, for me, I find it one of the most fulfilling things I do.

[back in County Clare]

>> MARY: I think it's been the biggest pleasure for me in music, is the exchanges.

>> SHANNON: And they're fun for you?

>> MARY: Oh, it's great fun. I mean, I love travelling myself.

And I love watching the kids have an opportunity to have a platform to perform. They live on this.

>> SHANNON: And you do, too?

>> MARY: Oh yeah, I do. I often sit down… I mean, looking at those photos this morning.

My heart skips a beat when I open that Boston book and look at the photographs.

And I think it'll live with them. And when they're older musicians they will go back and think about it.

And we will always know each other, which is great.

[MUSIC: "Heartstrings Theme" Reprise]

>> SHANNON: By the time they were in that room in Sligo for the competition, the Boston kids had already been through a lot together.

They'd formed a band.

They'd held up a giant trophy wearing flip flops and damp hair.

They'd ridden a huge bus on small Irish roads and navigated the Boston transit system.

They'd developed friendships across the ocean.

And the Grúpaí Ceol FORMAT was a chance to take what they'd learned and do their own thing with it.

They got these old tunes from a concertina player in Clare,

who'd learned it from older musicians.

[MUSIC ENDS]

>> SHANNON: And then they arranged and sculpted the music in their own way (with guidance from their teacher Sean Clohessy).

Here's Seamus Connolly's take on invention and innovation.

>> SEAMUS: We have to move forward, particularly with traditional music, wherever it may be from.

It's a living tradition!

And the younger people who are playing have to add to the music how they feel it should be interpreted,

and give us something new.

But at the same time we shouldn't forget what the older people did, too—what they put down.

But that was in their time.

Now it's 21st century, with new people coming along.

And it keeps it vibrant. It keeps it alive.

And when I'm gone and the young people who are now playing it, when they become older, they will hear something different as well.

So again, it's very much a living tradition. And it should be that way.

[MUSIC: "Seamus Connolly's" from Kevin Griffin (banjo), Eoin O'Neill (bouzouki), Sharon Shannon (accordion)]

>> SHANNON: And at the end of the day, the Boston kids got to swim in the hotel pool!

[Sound of SPLASH into swimming pool]
