I would assume to guess Kate would stay for at least one recording. Now if that possibility is not in the picture for say one whole year much like when Mairead C left the group in 2020 then it's not surprising. Perhaps Kate knows that the slot she filled was originally for Ciara. Do we know if there's not a possibility of Ciara taking back the role after her tour endeavors with the other group, that be if needed like Kate leaving.

There were more Decade lineups than I have friends, but I don’t think we’ve mentioned Éabha during this tour much. What did she have as solos? I know she sang Harry’s Game during the Destiny tour at some point, did she also sing this during this tour? Or did she just sing her Destiny solos?
Eabha sang Newgrange but for that fall tour when she joined that song was changed into a duet between her and Mairead Carlin. It's the first time Eabha sang Isle of Hope, Isle of Tear's. My guess is her second solo was How can I Keep From Singing.
Here is a clip that has the Newgrange Duet, Eabha is ABSOLUTELY!  !!!

Wow, Éabha sounds incredible!!! Of course, Mairéad does as well, but Éabha has such a special magic to her.
I didn’t know she did Isle Of Hope then! Thanks for clarifying.
Yes indeed! Makes you wish they had a recording of Eabha on it! Eabha doing Isle of Hope let them realize it was truly special hence why it became her solo on Voice's of Angel's when it use to been Susan covering it.

Hi forum family, As you may know me I've been here for all years, months but have never known this and by accident I pressed on the statistic button and then I got to see it and what really struck and flattered me was seeing myself as number three on most post active within this forum! I know that I post and am active, I just didn't expect to come out as number 3 as of now!  This section of the forum is really cool and a clear visual for whatever you want to know and see! <3 - rfcw

I'm curious if it was to do so she could maintain some personal private pages but if so she could set them private. When your a public figure and your full name is out there I mean how can you avoid such... : /

Thank you so much! I have not seen them live, but maybe someday. Have either of you seen them live and, if so, how many times?
Oh yes, Dawning of the Day with Mairead was so beautiful. Although, I have to say, the way Chloe days, "Young man, don't bring me blame," brings me chills every single time! Speaking of stage presence, Chloe has it too!
Honestly, one of the main reasons the Postcards albums one of my favorites is because of the way they recorded music videos in Oreland to go with the songs. So pretty and well done, in humble opinion.
Yes, Over the Rainbow this tour is so gorgeous. Their voices blend so well, they sound like rippling water.
Thanks for the warm welcome!!!!
Wow! Your input was perfectly said "rippling water indeed!" When Susan sang Dawning of The Day she pulled off Chloe's style really powerfully as well. I must say I do prefer Megan in strength with the song, but who doesn't love Mairead in it.. dream dream. Postcard's From Ireland Tour had some of the best choreography and energy especially with Chloe with them! Mo Ghile Mear which sometimes the best stellar performances are tour performances! Seeing them live is an unbelievable experience, you know it when you get goosebumps! One tour in 2010 after a rainy afternoon was the evening show and Lisa Kelly kindly said we had a lovely time at the Governor's Mall. That mall is the one place to go when it rains and I it was amazing if I had been there that a chance to run into them  if they could walk in the mall without people knowing it's them!

I was highly blessed that they came every year to my small capital city in Florida when I lived there up north. I am blessed to have able to attend and experience a live concert with the originals. My first one was A New Journey Tour in 2007 where Meav and Hayley were alternating but I was so happy that Meav was at my show and even though for that first show I was seated so high the most furthest it the sound live performing was a chilling experience nonetheless. Ever since I have seen A New Journey Tour with Alex and Lynn 2008, Isle of Hope Tour, Song's From The Heart both with Alex and Lynn and 2010 with Lisa Lambe. They stopped coming for Believe but have returned for the 10th Anniversary which I got the Emerald Tour lineup which was cool even if Alex and Meav would been EPIC, I had a special treat a rare unique opportunity of hearing Lynn do The Voice. In 2017 I traveled to Jacksonville to see Voice's of Angel's Tour. Now what's really really funny is since moving to central Florida I thought I'd get way more opportunity but nowadays they don't come but it's really great for places like Ft Myer's FL because they never had shows down there in the past. <3

So cool that Mairead Carlin is your favorite member and yet Postcard from Ireland is one of your favorite albums..so it must have been an experience witnessing Mairead doing Dawning of the Day and Wild Mountain Thyme alongside Muirgen. Seeing both Muirgen and Mairead doing a duet none other than Over the Rainbow is something within itself since Muirgen was Mairead's replacement back then.
Welcome to the Family officialy!

Who sang the main part of Óró Sé Do Bheatha ‘Bhaile on tour? I saw a YouTube comment saying it was Éabha, as she was the only vocalist fluent in Irish at the time. But I couldn’t find any definitive source on that…could they have split it up between them by verses? Susan dominated a lot of the Destiny songs as well (My Land as a key example), so could it have been her?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=at8L7DQw9DsThis should probably help ; -)

Yes Muirgen does/did play she started playing at 5 years old Here is a AI serch on the topic
She started violin lessons around age 5 but has said she was "terrible at it" and soon gave it up (along with classical flute, drums, and piano) to focus on singing.
Also Hayley plays the violin
as a hobby. Hayley Westenra also learned violin (plus piano, guitar, and recorder) as a child
This is a hard topic has the girls have many hidden talents
Interesting as somewhat only Hayley came to mind.

As for the past of CW, I thought I recalled Alex auctioning selling one of the dresses. 🤔
This is late but I went on Alex’s website recently, and I think she got to keep her red Homecoming dress because there’s a photo of her performing in it as a solo artist.
Great Catch! That is really cool, I wonder if it was her dress idk, at first she wore a blue one.

Watching Black is The Color, I could not think of not thinking Lisa Lambe again, Caitriona kept her voice as Nollaig as such a volume that you could listen to it, God Merry Rest Gentlemen, Going Home as if Lisa L was on it, of course Lisa L would of shined in some moments with her riffs. The pre song of Dulaman, Caitriona has a special voice like Eabha worth utilizing. Since Song's From the Heart was centered and Chloe and Lisa K and Lynn participated in a duet song and trio song added to her two solos, as Lynn deserved because she became a CW a period before Alex, if Alex had stayed she would perhaps had a broader significance within the next special Believe especially it being more under Musical Theater and Broadway where you literally have Alex Sharpe, infact imagine Alex tributing to Over the Rainbow as she was Dorothy when she was younger. She would of been a leader to that show. Lisa Lambe was breathtaking and a striking new energy, it's hard to believe how magical it be both Alex with Lisa L. She would of had more solo or group collaboration during Lullaby. One thing comes to mind, what if Alex was on Goodnight My Angel as she was a Mother.

Time for a Poll on Special Style Format. This is an individual preference poll, not what is best because every special filming is phenomenal!
