This vocal powerhouse from Belfast has really caught the attention of thousands of avid music lovers over the past few years. From a massive landslide win at the Coca-Cola all Ireland music finals in Belfast’s Waterfront Hall with her powerful rendition of Aretha Franklin’s Natural Woman; to holding court at The Limelight with her unique session of both old standards and self penned tunes – this bombshell has earned the right to be taken seriously as genuine talent. She has been recognized as a truly awesome singer / songwriter and, as such recently won the title of Best Vocal Talent at the ITS international talent showcase event in Paris. Her vocal capability is simply massive. To call her credible is an understatement when you take the range of Franklin to Aguilera and wrap it up in a classic but cool presentation style that is on power with Winehouse or Duffy. All this together gives us one huge amount of talent in a little five foot package that is very easy on the eye. Leah McFall’s talent and stage presence is no accident. She has taken her amazing raw talent and worked relentlessly to perfect it into the outstanding entertainer we see today. No stranger to hard work, Leah has taken gig after gig to expand her experience in live performing. From wedding parties through restaurant backdrop sessions to regular spots at The Rotterdam, Donegans, and The Pavilion. This lady knows how to connect with her audience. She works closely with her skilled musicians that form her own band, collaborating with them on writing some really well crafted songs. Together they create a truly amazing live performance experience and are well respected and appreciated by audiences wherever they perform. Whether its their sell-out gigs at local venues or even their live session on BBC radio they have always received the respect and adulation they truly deserve. Leah's personal taste in music is incredibly eclectic covering most genres. The influences of classic Motown, Gospel and Blues flow elegantly through her set, however it is her own skill and individuality that will capture your head and touch you to your very soul. Leah is well within her comfort zone singing any of these but with a style and flair that would make some of the great divas sit up and listen.
Wolf Den
Leah McFall Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Walking through the forest of doubt
I know they hear me now
Through the moonlit trees
I need your cloak to cover me
Like a child I've wandered into the den
Facing the foolish of the wisest men
Sweet Faith
Sweet Faith
The wolves are at my side
But I know their teeth can't bite
So I won't hide, no
I'll keep singing that
Sweet Faith
You sent me on a quest
And you hid your treasure in my chest
Maybe they don't know it yet
That my weary eyes disguise the strength inside of me
Like a child i've wandered into the den
Facing the foolish of the wisest men
I'll keep singing that
Sweet Faith
Sweet Faith
The wolves are at my side
But I know their teeth can't bite
So I won't hide, no
I'll keep singing that
Sweet Faith
I won't run away oh no
Won't run away oh no
When the wolves say "Go Home, go home"
I'll wait for you, Its time
To let love rule my mind
So when the wolves say "Go Home, go home"
I'll dare to stay right here and silence fear
In the Darkness
I'll keep singing that
Sweet Faith
Sweet Faith
The wolves are at my side
But I know their teeth can't bite
So I won't hide, no
na na na na na na na na na na
Sweet Faith
In Leah McFall's "Wolf Den," the singer sings about embarking on a journey of doubt and facing the challenges that come with it, likening it to wandering into a wolf den. Despite the presence of the wolves, the singer remains steadfast in her faith, singing "Sweet Faith" as a means of grounding herself and reminding herself that the wolves ("the foolish of the wisest men") cannot harm her.
The lyrics evoke images of a forest and a moonlit night, creating a sense of mystery and danger. The use of the child metaphor emphasizes the singer's vulnerability but also her innocence and purity of heart. The wolves represent the obstacles that the singer encounters along her journey, but her faith in herself and her belief system serves as a shield, allowing her to face her fears head-on.
Ultimately, the song is a testament to the power of faith and the importance of perseverance when facing difficult situations. It encourages the listener to stay true to themselves and their beliefs, even in the face of adversity.

You send me out
You have tasked me with a difficult challenge
Walking through the forest of doubt
Navigating a confusing and uncertain path
I know they hear me now
I feel that my message is being received
Through the moonlit trees
In the nighttime, the world seems mystical and magical
I need your cloak to cover me
I could use some protection and guidance

I won't let fear diminish my efforts
You sent me on a quest
You have set me on a journey of self-discovery
And you hid your treasure in my chest

Perhaps I haven't yet fully recognized my own potential
That my weary eyes disguise the strength inside of me
My exhaustion and anxiety may distract from my true capabilities
I won't run away oh no
I won't give in to my fears
When the wolves say "Go Home, go home"
When opposition tries to intimidate me into giving up
I'll wait for you, Its time
I will trust in the timing of the situation
To let love rule my mind
I will focus on compassion and understanding

How is she not THE most famous singer in the world right now?! I want her to be so well known but I also love the feeling that only a select few know how truly amazing she is.
Lucas De Sa
I agree, for me she was perfect the best voice of the world, I don't what's happen for her!
Wallafe Moreira
I do not understand why singers like her are not successful in the United States. I thought the country recognized good talents. But now I see that the only thing that pleases is the fad.
Xander Eros
I belive it s because not a lot of people understand and appreciate real music I mean look at the number of views...it s us who can make people famous or not.
KursedMoo
Maybe just learn a little respect?
Melissa Velez
XVoltPlayer words of truth!!❤️👊🏽
Bruno Pereira
How about we get together and do hashtag on twitter or a multiplayer to leah to have more visualizations here on youtube?
Wallafe Moreira
I do not mind being called crazy or being compared to one. The mad have kindness. They never fail to tell the truth and are simply marginalized by it. And I will not stop communicating through what I have of best. If you want to erase the your comment, at ease, I have always been open to any dialogue. Whether or not per a YouTube comment session... :D
Princess Wonderwoman
She not only sings well. but the lyrics are creative and deep
Leroy Jnr
I was listening so intently, and was so mesmerised that I think my heart stopped beating for a second... Absolutely breathtaking. It was like watching an Opera. Her voice is so captivating. She is literally AMAZING.
