I sang this song in primary school.

I had no choice,had to sing this piece of crap also sang oom pah pah

My school tortured us with these songs

[monkeypaw1010]

Thanks for the little bit of history in the description. I sang this years ago in high school chorus, and I loved it but knew very little about it. The version we sang was very similar to this.

love this song boys well done.

[tigerhugger66]

You're welcome my friend. Love your version of Tom Dooley too.

[tigerhugger66]

They make it sound almost cheerful, I heard this at Outdoor School and it was the saddest song ever. Not because of the lyrics but by the way the people sang it to me. For some reason it made me homesick, and when I was back home it made me want to be back at Outdoor School again.

Great rendition, with full harmonies and haunting whistling. I just uploaded my own rendition as well. Good to see the folk process is still alive and well.

[meowsgomoo]

i thing this is such a folk song we r playing this on guitar and singing the corus of it.....in music

[leprechaungreen]

Nice song and performance. Anyone knows the tabs/chords for "The Dublin saunter" (also known as Dublin can be heaven) by the same composer? Thanks. Greetings from Portugal

[michaelbels]

[shnos]

very nice sense thanks

[novapup2001]

Nice! This song is still sung by traveling troubadors. If you catch him, Darrell Keigan's (Cape Breton, NS) solo version is pristine.

[marygurl11]

i did this fer a recital[ matdatory ] or i fail music

[dragonhunter1011]

Who is singing this? i can't see faces.

[sensei48]

Sorry about that, Dragon. We had no control over the video shooting. If you look at the liner notes for the song, you'll see we're The Chilly Winds, a semi-pro folk group from around the U.S. There are links in the notes to some of our other websites.

[Blatherskyfe]

Sounds like IrishTreasa is looking for "Anachie Gordon".  Mary Black does a great job of it.

[SwimChick5690]

[irishtreasa]

anybody know of a song about a gypsy and a settled girl who fell in love and they used to meet at a river, but then the father finds out and stops them an then the girl kills herself, and then the traveler kills himself after to be with her? have no idea what its called, who sang it, or any of the lines in the song.lookin for it for months now , its doin me head in!

[sensei48]

Wow - this sounds familiar to me too - but I can't place it either. If you find out, would you please post it here?

[birgidaledoofy]

the gypsy caravan?

dont ask hoo sung it, my uncle sings it aty partys thats how i know it.

[margueritehart]

I definitely like the Clancy Brothers version the best (but I suppose I'm a bit biased, since I've heard that version since I was probably 6) But thanks for posting the video! It's great to hear the song at the very least

[DragQueenFetishGirl]

did you write the information on this song, cause i bet you didint

[sensei48]

bet I did.

[DragQueenFetishGirl]

look whose mature now! goodday!

[sensei48]

Odd couple of comments, DQFG. However, in case the first was serious - I write the notes for all Chilly Winds videos, including the rather longer ones on "Tom Dooley" and "Country Roads." As to the second....I need say no more than that I took a look at the DQFG page...interesting...

[DragQueenFetishGirl]

yeah see? its called taste!

[sensei48]

an interesting take on the idea of taste - as I'm sure it's meant to be! congrats on a really original look.

[DragQueenFetishGirl]

gee, you sound so sincere!

[BringMeToLife715]

i much prefer this version to the ones i've seen that go too fast with no accent whatsoever! thank you for uploading!!
