The original Celtic Woman Forum is dying. I'm thinking a hardware failure. Images hosted are NOT loading anymore. If you value ANY of your information log in and download it before it's completely gone. https://www.celticwomanforum.com/If you know someone who was on there, tell them to do the same! The more we can save, the better!

Wondering how well she performs on stage. She is coming to our city.
This is my first experience with this artist.

Uematsu is one of the greatest composers in video game history (IMO.)
I grew up with Final Fantasy (My first one was number 8 and I was very young) and have been playing it ever since.
Final Fantasy XVI is one of the best ones in the series if we're also talking gameplay, but to warn you, the Mature rating it was given is very much justified.

ya we were to get a upgrade this summer but hasn't happened yet and like years past that were no shows on the upgrades we were told about. We are to go to a fiber main line and then copper to the house and the added new hub only a few 100 yards away meaning we all here could go to 100 megs down and 10 or so megs up all because of a new family that moved in at the end of the dead end road right now the only internet they have is dailup so this upgrade is needed to offer them DSL. The thing we all are pissed about is the fiber line has been layed 21 years ago and just never hooked up all they needed to do is hook it up and put a hub at the end of it and we all could have had much better internet for years. This is why I hae been looking into starlink I have heard the speeds are around 150 megs down and 25 to 30 up and that the speeds will only get better as they improve their network but it's $110.00 a month
If you're not getting fiber for at least a couple years, starlink is the best choice IMO. It may be wise to look at different providers in you area. They may be able to give you a better deal and more speed.

Fiber is the best choice if you can get it from your provider.
Fiber is pretty amazing, although it's often used as a marketing buzz word by ISPs.
Fiber is used in ISP backbones and in data centers, because of it's bandwidth, resulting speed, and the distance a signal can travel without degradation. This type of infrastructure would be used by any modern ground-based ISP, regardless of whether the connection between a house and the cable company's box in the neighbourhood is copper wire or fiber optic cable. An ISP would prefer copper since it's a lot cheaper and easier to work with. Unless the cable lines are REALLY old, the copper wires can carry up to around 300 Mbps in the real world (unless subjected to a different bottleneck), which is sufficient for just about any residential purpose (you could have multiple 4K TVs streaming different things at the same time, easily). Fiber between a house and the ISPs neighbourhood box is mostly for marketing and speed differences between fiber and non-fiber house connections are mostly due to other factors.
Fiber is not a buzzword. Here in Saskatchewan we have a crown telecom named SaskTel. At home I have direct fiber to my home. I currently have 300/150 and I can go up to 940/500 if I want. It isn't shared. I can max it out in a heartbeat if I need or want to.

Starlink is a good internet option if you can't get fiber.
Fiber is the best choice if you can get it from your provider.
Bandwidth does vary heavily with Starlink, but in your situation, it is the best option as your only getting 15 down and 1 up from your current one.
FYI I don't have starlink but I am going on what I've heard online.

I think we should begin setting up shop somewhere else.
Youtube is mainstream and most DMCA takedowns usually are some script kiddie trying to cause trouble. I don't think that is the case here and is a credible threat.
Other places may turn a blind eye. That may be to our advantage.

Thanks for giving me so many chances and bearing with me as I tried!
Guess it's my turn...
This tune was sung by both an Irish musician and one CW member.
There are 2 versions of the cover art of the album where the song is recorded originally.
A Train is involved.
Y2K is mentioned.
Name that tune
A Spaceman Came Travelling?
From Chris de Burgh's "Spanish Train and Other Stories" album. The album did apparently have 2 covers:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spanish_Train_and_Other_Stories
It mentions Y2K indirectly:
When two thousand years of your time has gone by
This song will begin once again to a baby's cry
Performed by Lisa Lambe on Believe (and on a German edition of Songs from the Heart), though not performed with Chris de Burgh on the recording.
You are right on, Tom! Great job! You're up next!

Just to confirm I only have Apple Music and not Spotify,
Guessing Siúil a Rúin Sadhbh Ní Bhruineallaigh
Did you get my PM? They did.
EDIT: more confident guess.
99.99% there. Those are lyrics in the song, but the song has another title on Ancient Land.
(That's Hint #5.)
PS. Make sure you are having fun with this! 
I am having fun now!  Sive

Sigh
At this point I'm grasping at straws.
I really want to win this.

I'm going to guess Mná na hÉireann They are on both the Believe DVD and the Ancient land regular album.
After that I have no more ideas. (We might need another hint)
