  • A truly beautiful work.

  • @Oroboros525 Thank you for this share  -- Perfect for this time of year.

  • amazing lyrics of love

  • Hello! Is this another version of the tale of Tam Lynn? I've never heard this. The first time I heard the other tale someone had sent it to me on a cd; I loved it so well I played i til it scratched and was unplayable. Yes; I should have burned it on puter, but didn't think of it. Someone with a fine Scottish Brough spoke the tale with good Faerie timed music of the same title. Had to do with the Dark Faerie Queen and getting Tam back to his human love.

  • VERY BEAUTIFUL

  • 'There's four and twenty ladies all in the land' 420? Can this be..?

  • Wonderful. I always loved Tamlin. This is a great version of the old folk song "Lady Margaret".  Thank you.

  • some of the best story telling in modern music, some people may dislike Davids voice but the music and the poem set to it is EPIC!

  • messed up much ?

  • wonderment... Tibet is the best.

    and my fellow Americans... doesn't this video make you have a strange craving for porter? It must be the painting. hahaha

  • This is amazing!

  • really good  !! and the painting is so beautiful

  • the bloody best song everrr!passion for Tibet's rendition caused me read all the manifold versions of the ballad and I found out that Tibet's lyrics are just pale&simplified in comparison to traditional ones;Nevertheless it's the best example o his voice (which is the best voice in the world). and hail Cashmore or whoever..................(but I strongly suppose Cashmore)

  • the woman in the painting was a lady golfer

    amazing song tho

  • beautiful beautiful beautiful

  • what album is this off of?

  • You can find this song with "How great satanic glory faded" in the EP called Tamlin on Coptic Cat site ! : )

  • @Oroboros525 @rawtofu It was also reissued on the Six Six Six Sick Sick Sick compliation CD.

  • @rawtofu SixSixSix: SickSickSick

  • thank you, this is great

  • this lyrics is a part of : Isaiah XIII:21-2;1 and Corinthians XIII:12-132

  • Did Tibet compose these lyrics? I recognise some of the content from traditional song, but not all.

  • They're either taken from or deeply inspired by the Anne Briggs version of the song.

  • When I hear this song I think there is a traditionnal "sound".

  • @Oroboros525 Someone might have mentioned, but it's an old Scottish folk tune, there are longer versions, shorter versions, various chord progressions...

    Yeah. I like this version quite a bit. Found an original issue CD for 9usd!

  • @rosasomniferum Tibet took the lyrics from the Anne Briggs version of the song.

  • @rosasomniferum This is a traditional song. Though this version's variations on lyrics are IMO better than most. Not to mention Mr. Tibet's unique touch. Fairport Convention's version is also good.

  • the guitar is so pretty, and the story is as well.

  • This painting is called "Lady Margaret Scott" painted by Ellis William Roberts (1860 -1930).

  • sorry I meant the painting..

  • what picture is this?

  • this is by far the best version i've ever heard of this old song.

  • A SPLENDID SONG, INDEED.

  • I just wanted to represent Lady Margaret as i imagine her. Dress in black with a hat. And a white skin, so romantic...

  • Maybe the best song ever sung by David Tibet, revealing his obsession concerning the fight between the fairies' vanishing world, and the crescent christian one. I think the picture does not fit with the subject : whereas Tibet uses archaic terms, this picture seems to have been painted during XIXth century. And why does this piece of art stand so far behind tunes that are not worth being heard ???

  • this is mesmerizing. ive never heard of this band before
