Songs for fairies for the whimsical and magical @thislookinyoureyes
Just to preface this, fairies in gaelic (and I think more broadly celtic) folklore are mischievous, deadly, and not to be trifled with. I included some songs that sound light and airy like 'normal' fairies and then a few heavier Gàidhlig songs about the daoine sìth/sìthichean (fairies)
I know it might not be the typical fairy vibes, but I hope you still enjoy it! Thank youuuu so much for requesting, Mathilde! J'espère que cette playlist vous plaira! (<- J'ai essayé de pratiquer à nouveau mon français et ce verbe semble faux) 😭
