Not speaking for Kelpie, but its one and the same really.. when people refer to Irish that means the Gaelic.. there may be a classical as well as a everyday version but I am not sure.. will ask my wife when she is home.. she knows some Irish..

For myself, having lived in Wales as well as Ireland, I would have to say that while both languages are of course very similar.. I always thought that Welsh is not as pleasant to listen to as Irish, which is softer and more flowing generally. Welsh is good sung of course as is Irish but a bit rougher to hear spoken..
