The two performers delivered buttery smooth harmonies that left the audience captivated, and fans online quickly shared their admiration for the performance.
McGinty’s tribute set the tone for the duet, with words full of warmth and respect that perfectly complemented Byrom’s presence. He playfully acknowledged Byrom’s charm and humor, saying, “I knew he was a great singer, but he’s an incredible talker.
In particular, his version of All By Myself was great, but I’ll let you in on a little secret…he said he was doing a Spanish version, but backstage he admitted, ‘He doesn’t know what he’s saying, and neither do you.’ So he’s just going to go with it, and you’ll believe it!” The remark drew laughter and applause, highlighting their easy camaraderie.
Their voices blended seamlessly during “Just A Song At Twilight”, creating a performance that was as moving as it was technically flawless. Fans on social media quickly chimed in: “Love hearing these two guys. Paul and Damien blended voices superb 😘” and “Oh my, so lovely to hear them sing this again. Thank you 😊”. Others called it “incredible” and “a true pleasure”, emphasizing the enduring magic of their collaboration.
Fans were particularly struck by the chemistry and connection between the two, with one noting, “This is one of my favorite bromances!” Another captured the emotional resonance of the performance, quoting the song: “Even today we hear Love’s song of yore. Deep in our hearts it dwells forevermore.”
The performance showcased both McGinty and Byrom at their best, effortlessly blending their powerful yet delicate vocal tones. It was a moment fans could watch over and over, leaving a lasting impression. As one viewer commented, “It’s surprising how well their voices blend. I’d love to hear more!”
For those following Celtic Thunder and the individual journeys of its members, this duet was a reminder of the extraordinary talent and musical connection shared by McGinty and Byrom—a performance that resonated deeply with fans and continues to be celebrated years later.
