The Grenadier and the Lady

[ExNihilMetal]

A very bittersweet song. Sums up the transcience of human experience quite well, both lyrically and melodically. Very well played, I'll have to check out your other videos :)

@ExNihilMetal

Thank you for watching and for your comment! I like this song very much:-)

[Shropshireladdie]

This may sound bigoted and idiotic(well it is) but this is English music being played on a celtic harp, can you play it on an English instrument?

[maaswater15]

@Shropshireladdie

Alas, I only play the small harp:-)

[BrionyMae]

@Shropshireladdie yes thats an extremely idiotic thing to say

[agormanvideos]

@Shropshireladdie Well, don't you English have some celtic blood mixed in your veins too?

[Shropshireladdie]

@agormanvideos

Well the "english" do but the ethnic English dont, if you understand.

[ExNihilMetal]

@agormanvideos

Possibly in some cases, but not very likely for most. The Saxons pretty much removed the native populations of the lands they conquered. The "Celts" (or "Britons", as I think they're more often called) were relegated to Cornwall, Wales, and Scotland, and even then, they saw large influxes of Scandinavians, Gallic Celts, possibly even Iberians. Much of England is still quite homogenously Western Germanic, especially compared to other areas in Europe.

@ExNihilMetal OK, anyway, is it necessary to be so strict? Aren't there any Celtic songs that seem to have English style as well as English songs that seem to have Celtic style? My point is people always have silly excuses to start a fight.

[agormanvideos]

@ExNihilMetal Heck, I even heard some Irish songs that sounded a little like chinese music! Why making so much fuss about it?

[ExNihilMetal]

@agormanvideos

Haha, I'm not making a fuss about the music, just clearing up the issue of whether the modern English have Celtic blood :p there are definitely going to be links between Irish, Scottish, Welsh, English, French, German, Scandinavian, Hungarian, European, Eurasian... and Pangean music ;)

Thanks once again Maria...Great video !!!

[maaswater15]

Thank you again! I just love Scottish, Irish, Celtic music . So I am very motivated to learn these songs:-)

[Shropshireladdie]

@maaswater15

But this is English music =-[, yes this is all i do: defend what is Englands from culture grabbers.....

[shanereel]

@Shropshireladdie I guess Celtic people didn't quite have the chance you claim to defend what was "theirs" from Britons....
