Good version!! I've noticed someone commenting, seeing a similarity with the Corries, personally I can see a similarity with the folk duo Gaberlunzie. However not to say you aren't original keep up the good work!

[keltickev27]

thanks my friend...... we are good friends with the Gabs....so there may be some influence there!

[blaxcot]

Glorious!! I'm from Kilmarnock and we used to sing this song at school during the Scottish Singing period. Along wi' "There was a man called Aiken Drum", Green Grow the Rushes O", Banks Of Loch Lomond and others.

[keltickev27]

good to hear from you! enjoy....

[BardofCornwall]

Thanks for posting this. I've never heard the song, and I notice a Corries influence in the vocals.

[keltickev27]

You may be right there! I grew up listening to them. Thanks for the feedback...and you have some great videos posted yourself.

[bella96]
