Yes what a fabulous recording as part of an Irish series of recordings during lockdown Lisa is also part of another great recording relaaed recently where many of the best known Irish female singers do a wonderful version of Dreams by the Cranberries. Check it out!

She is absolutely great. But John Smith deserve a special mention too. Though is talent is quite discrete on this vid, he is a virtuoso guitar player and a great songwriter with an nice warm voice. His last album is worth checking, guys.

This is one of the strongest NPR concerts I've heard! She exudes Irish passion with that incredible voice - when she sings the world is silent :-)

With that voice could you imagine being a little kid and having her sing you a lullaby?

No costume changes; no autotune; no dance routines; no attitude . . . just pure music. It's wonderful how much joy she gets (and gives) when singing.

Can't believe this was 11 years ago already! Still enjoy every bit of it.

I love Lisa Hannigan, what a voice, what a talent! And it was great to meet her in person, lovely personality

Hmm. Blue Diamond looks a lot different than I thought she would. My diamond. Also, "Little Bird" brought me to tears.

When she looks into the camera, my heart just melts. She has such a great voice and such talent at crafting lyrics and music together in the most beautiful ways.

My one celebrity crush and this version of Little Bird outshines the studio recording.

For re-listening: - "Knots": 0:00 - "Little Bird": 2:30 - "Passenger": 7:28

Irish whiskey and laurel.

"Alright old bean" She's amazing.

Lisa's ethereal voice seems like a whisper and pulls you in ...and then overwhelms the senses with its range and depth! Thanks for this amazing tiny concert!

Every time I watch this, and believe me, it's often, I am reduced to a shaking, tear drenched wreck during little bird. That song has always touched me as deeply as any piece of music ever has, but there is something about this performance that just absolutely cuts through every defense I've built up straight to the core of my soul and reminds me of just how little we all are. Hands down one of the most powerful songs I've ever heard. I adore Lisa and the music that she makes.

Lisa Hannigan ! You beauty ! Such a gorgeous woman with such a beautiful voice ! You're impeccable :)

I’m glad that she decides to sing with her beautiful voice

For me, no St Patrick's Day is complete without this lovely video. Happy St Paddy's Day, 2019!

I love NPR music, this is like when MTV was actually about music. Keep it up :)

She is out of this world... one of the most amazing artists!

Tremendous. "Little Bird" is so beautiful, and I love "Passenger" even more when it's just...them, in the room with a mic. It reminds me of long ago summers. It swells my heart.

The subtle john smith, one of few collaborators who have no need to compete and only enhance from love, and if possible she shines even more on these tracks. Dont know how lucky we are, alive in the right time of blossoming, each song fresh as a daisy, and shared freely all over the net. Even if ‘we are all finished’, we remain in good tune, good heart, good company

Well said, friend. Life is better and better, if we can but appreciate our blessings.

pop music can't scratch me.... this shoots me in the heart, through and through, out my back yet fills me with more life than it takes away

Two brilliant artists at one time at Tiny Desk... always a pleasure to listen to them. John Smith solo is a big number, too! Everybody who doesn't know his music should check it out soon! His voice is incredible! Not to speak of his guitar playing...

Got so emotionally involved that I just was about to applause at the end of Little Bird like if I was in the room... This is so lovely !*

I thought I'd had a pretty good appreciation for Lisa and loved little bird but from a mahohnay session. First time watching her tiny desk and Passenger absolutely blew me away. The lyrics were super intricate and relatable

A talented and beautiful woman playing with a big heart. Well done.

Surely the best tiny desk concert ever?

what a perfect smile! such teeth. lovely songs

If you guys wonder the guy in background on "Little bird" etc is John Smith. You should check him out. He is great aswell.

Just want to add, as a lover of this concert, that I have just started checking out John Smith's own music on Spotify and it's awesome. If you love Lisa then go listen to John as well.

Am smashed by LIsa's flex voice... esp. the last song, with John voice coming in too... what beauty ... very touching

This music is refreshingly unique, and Lisa appears to be lovely in all ways.

I just love the beautiful vocal harmonies on Passenger.

I've been listening to this a few times a day for a couple of weeks now, along with other LH vids. It's addictive. I love everything about Lisa and her music. Just bought her 2 CDs as well. Hope to see her live one day soon. I'm a John Smith fan, which is why I watched this originally and discovered Lisa.

One of the great Tiny Desk Concerts, Lisa really is a marvel.

cant even watch program commercials interrupt middle of beautiful song Shame on you KZread

Love this. Love the mandolin!!

This is overwhelmingly beautiful. Thank you!

How cool and ethereal are Lisa little lilts.......play on, sing on...........

I saw Lisa, Zoe Conway and John McIntyre in St Malachy's church, Castlewellan, County Down. They played A Prayer for the Dying - it literally had me in tears. Absolutely beautiful. Lisa is such a delight to watch and listen to. Such a voice.

Beautiful, Lisa has matured both as a artist and a person. It's fun to watch!

excellently written songs sung excellently..:)...lisa is just amazing..:)

So good. 3 great songs, charmingly performed. Music as it should be.

Mister Smiths palying on this is just great, blown away by both Amazing artist

I could be in love only with her beauty and it would not be an exaggeration ..., but I am undecided if the artistic talent would not be even greater than the evocative beauty of this girl. OMG !!

Such a brilliant musician and artist. Most importantly, Lisa's such a beautiful storyteller :)

Love all the instruments, outputting through my Bose Companion 20 speakers.Justice to the artists that deserves it!

Lisa is amazing

her voice just brought me to tears

Came upon ohio I had you chewed on like a biro ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀 I love Lisa hannigan so much. Spellbounding

Great! Wonderful energy.

This is just as effective for discovering good new music as going to a music festival. Thank you, NPR.

absolutely sensational! wish she performed sail

There's a great vid on here of her singing this underwater in a bath. Beautifully filmed.

Im gratefully here because of Matk Hogben. He is a remarkable living man off-grid near or in Canada (i believe, im still getting to know my new YTfriend) sharing his life experience which include the late stages of Parkinson's Disease ❤

You know... Some music just touches the soul.

She's special.

great! :) just love these younger Irish artists
