【鏡音レン】Scarborough Fair【鏡音リン】

[amayahiroku23]

Oh my gosh, I love this so much! It is interesting to hear the different versions, such as Luka, Gakupo, and Rin and Len.

[rimedragona]

Never heard this version of the song before! I like it. :) I have to admit, I was expecting the S&G version, though. ^^;

As for the herbs, they all used to have meanings, like flowers still do. So when they mention the herbs, they're really invoking the meanings of the herbs. I was told that:

parsley - taking away bitterness

sage - strength

rosemary - faithfulness

thyme - courage

[XReaperKnightX]

Nevertheless, the fact that my favourite Vocaloids are singing in ENGLISH (barely), and from what I can tell, by a JAPANESE person, my faith in the world has been restored. Hallelujah!

[XReaperKnightX]

@LittleMissMimic I'm not too sure about the herb nonsense, but I REALLY didn't know that Miku had an English voice bank! What a crappyVvocaloid fan I am.

[sharkmanki]

Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay to high. At least, from a Simon & Garfunkel fan.

[LittleMissMimic]

what's with the parsley sage, rosemary, and thyme?

Rin and Len. Almost speaking english! I hope they get an english voicebank like miku

[YingofDarkness]

Me (watching video): What a pretty song. I'm glad it has subtitles so I could understand it

Me (after videos is done, and looks at top comments): ....wait...THIS IS IN ENGLISH?! O_O

Did this happen to anyone else?

[Twinglemom101]

Rin and Len... have two of the fairest voices among the vocaloids.

The beauty within the song grows within the hearts of the listeners.

Not much else is said.~Forest

[punkrose1225]

Is it just me or is Kaito is the VERY back of the picture?

[punkrose1225]

I thought "Oliver" once I saw the title

[Ik40i]

Since a lot of people are confused about Miky appearing, if you listen very closely, you can hear Miku vocalizing in the background.

[the1Bored]

a lot o f people seem confused about miku, but the way i see it is that len asked rin and miku to do all those impossible things and rin was the only one that tried, so rin stayed and miku left.

[Em0Pierr0t]

I'm not kidding, their Engrish was really good in this vid owo)b

[Twilinden]

I ment to say "Thank" instead of "Forgive"......!

I'm so sorry!

[Twilinden]

Um....Hello....^^

If you want to download this

The number is really sm2321328

Unfourtunely there was a mistake in the description...^^

Please Forgive this kind person for uploading...^^

Bye...!

[cultivationful]

while this is very nice and amazing in its own right, the majority of all vocaloid stuff is, my only problem is that its supposed to be more of a deep song =P even Miku's very is deeper than this >.>

still awesome in every way

[NekoAdri07]

That forest look like so beautifull!

[leafinmilo]

lol miku at 1:50 kinda reminded me of evil hatsune miku.

[Mikailamylove]

Is this a remix by this one P? It's different from the normal Scarborough Fair.

I'd love to hear the human version of this, but I can't seem to find it anywhere.

[adaje5]

@Mikailamylove

The song itself is an older variant of scarborough fair. the song is ancient dating back at least to the 1600's. I believe this particular set of lyrics is one of the versions collected by Francis Child in the 1800s. I think it is one of the elfin knight versions. perhaps Child's Ballad #2. at any rate look up elfin night or child's ballads along with search terms like lyrics, video or you tube. i know you can find lyrics.

[Razzlyify]

@adaje5 I think they meant tune wise. When I saw Scarborough Fair, I was excited, thinking I could sing along but the tune is different from the one I heard many times. Don't take me wrong, this sounds lovely but there seems to be a large variety of different lyrics and tunes.

[adaje5]

@Razzlyify this song is an ancestor of the more familiar versions of scarborough fair :) forms of this song go back for centuries. it is amazing that someone, particularly a Japanese person, knew of it and liked it enough to such a good job with non english speaking Vocaloids.

[aximilisnum1fan]

Wait... Did Len say "For he was once a true love of mine"?!?! Ooooh boy.

[8Midnightmelody8]

The full version!

I thought i'd never hear it :3

This is my favourite song ^.^

[KagamineRinxLen02]

The BEST english i have ever heard from the kagamines!

[Usachanscakes]

The lyrics are a bit off but it's very cute, and I have to say a bit creepy.. XD Good job!

[pinkfox55]

This is a beautiful song, I love it, but... What the heck happened at the end?!

[SickTwistedQueen]

I think you got the sm wrong...

[Twilinden]

@SickTwistedQueen

*Smiles Cutely and

eats a candy Apple*

[SickTwistedQueen]

@Twilinden Thank you~

[Twilinden]

@SickTwistedQueen

*Smiles and continues

Eating*

[SickTwistedQueen]

Beautiful! Rin looks like she's crying... I probably would be to if I were to sing a song this gorgeous.

[SyaoLin213]

Nice. It's not often that you see someone cover the original full version of this song.

[lenxkaho08]

so it was Miku that was singing the "aaahhh" part.

[ArtificailxXxVampire]

I think Miku apears because she's singing 'aaahhh' Lightly in the background at the time she apears, soo....

[Animecons1]

interesting.....

[prettynekogirl1]

i cant hear rin in the beggning boo cant spell today again booooo

[Hikariae]

It's a very pretty movie, and song too :D

[MagicalKittenT]

This song is exactly what Len's voice is most suitable for! Choir standard!

[prettynekogirl1]

why is miku there

[Drappaofsealpack]

@prettynekogirl1 because she singing aaahhh very lightly in the background.

[Blame125]

Beautiful! First time that I hear the complete song. :)

[fierflies]

Its nice but its in the wrong tune.

[mysticthecatninja]

@fierflies its a revision of the song.

[Kirunekira]

@fierflies I like this tune better than the original :o

[tomoxxxxuchida]

英語の下手さを笑ってやろうと思ったのだが・・・

おそれいりつかまつりたてまつり！

Well done!!

[shyboyIvan]

interesting to hear Rin & Len singing in english it sounds very diferent to Luka version but is nice

[rosedragon1827]

lolz in the middle of the song i realized tat they were singing in english xD

woahh... im slow O.o

[wiredlord]

I know that this is unrelated but I got the feeling that Miku's role here is a fairy that watches over the Twins

[kyuketsuki16]

I think it might be more like she's the one who the twins are talking to. Maybe?... I don't know.

[sorenluver]

i luv this song, but i think this was done near the beginning of their vocaloid life, ya know when they were still tryin to tweak the sound of vowels and whatnot? cause ive heard other english songs and its perfect..but i would probly prefer this version over a better version lol. i luv this song sooo much...and actually, have u ever noticed if u listen real close u can sorta hear miku in the background? i heard her thru out the whole song, its real faint tho, have to listen hard, sry for length

[kaitoXmikuXlen]

not bad but miku's is better.. if any1 wants to hear miku's version this is the title  Scarborough　Fair 初音ミク Miku Hatsune sing

[dimgrey]

Did anyone else hear them sing "Tell her to make me a cambric shoe"?

Still, really good for a Japanese vocaloid.

[Twilinden]

*Giggles cutely*

A little.....^^

[ChibiMewtwo]

It does sound like they are saying shoe. XD

[sorenluver]

i love this song, but why does miku appear then disappear? anyone get that?

[TOXICxREDxBALLOON]

i think she's the one harmonizing in the background

so when she starts they put her in but only as a shadow cause she's not really singing

that's just a thought

[lldesudesull]

1:50 - close to the end of the vid

miku's outline is behind rin

btw they sing this so peacefully, even the vid is peaceful

[LoveTezuka27]

Peaceful song

[fatalframe95]

Omg a version of the song with all the Lyrics LOL! *writes down*

[vampiricXarchangel95]

for some reason the song reminds me of something you would hear from Lord of the Rings XD

[playtagwithme]

omg its so cute

[RaziTheKitty777]

Len looks so awesome.

[RaziTheKitty777]

Myaa!! Give us link for mp3~!! Or someone. lol

[OMGhappiness]

i have always loved this song ^.^

[Puolum]

they are singing english, well 0v0

nice indeed`

[Pichivoice]

anyone knows where I could find this in mp3? I really like it.

[galuidi]

This is the best version I've ever heard of this song. Having once lived in Scarborough and the town just down the road from where I now live this song has some meaning to me. Thanks

[XHeartStarAngelX]

OMG! Did you people noticed Hatsune Miku at 1:50 ? O.O

[mysticthecatninja]

yes

[ChibiChiiChandes]

I saw it!! o__o

[1989Chiro]

Look behind/beside Ren

[mysticthecatninja]

she is also singing

[sushiyakiniku]

アンドロイドが歌うなんて、もはや近未来的ね

[rockerchickXOXO]

i remember singing this song in music class but wow it really pretty even tho its kinda hard 2 hear them singing it~

[isabelletje11]

I like the song! I can play it on the cello!! XD

[zuzukato]

I wonder what teh meaning of the song is..is it an old recept of something??

[guildwarsdabest]

Image and sound purely rock. i wuld give this a 10/5 if i could. And they did quite well with the pronunciaton actually, ive seen worse

[guildwarsdabest]

and now that i notice, a transparent image of Miku appears behind Rin, does Miku sing a part of this?

[ArialKyoSohma]

Yup, she sings a slight bit in the background, the "aaaaa" sounds and such. ^^

[Saviliana]

Huh?!we got this too?

[fushigiusagi]

発音がもっとよければ神だったねｗ

でも、音がすごくきれいだ(*n´∀｀n*)

There can be improvement in pronunciation but the sound is awesome.

[shadowjinx13]

They usually do end up needing improvement on pronunciation, but seeing they are pretty much a japanese product, and they are singing English words, they can't help it. But I really love the sound of their voices! It's amazing!!!
