I really like this song, i have a more basic version of it in my channel if anyone wants to check it out. I hope someone can help me improve it, because i think i should have used a different tune
Apparently it's unlikely that King Henry VIII composed Greensleeves because the particular harmonic structure is of an Italian form that didn't reach England until after his time. Also, I find it hard to believe that he could have written a melody like this!
this is actually the best, one ive herd on you tube yet, most of them are just people trying ot play green sleeves, this is a awsome song, i believe that the king wrote this song may be,and had some one work on the musicial part as he paid them, may be batoven before he died, as he had a lot of un finished works
I think there is certainty that Henry didn't write it, and i think most historians attribute the creation of this song to either Bon Jovi or Duran Duran.
This song is probably one of the most beautiful, most calming songs ever composed. I am grateful to whoever composed this song. I am learning how to play this on the piano. :)
I'm not really sure, might be the England queen: Anna Boleyn (in a young, pretty look) 'cause it was believed that king Henry VII composed this song,
the truth is the painting is "My Lady Greensleeves" by Dante Gabriel Rossetti. Who knows, might Dante painted this because (as the king) he was in love with her, but she didn't noticed him, so he loved her in secret. Perhaps she wasn't Anna Boleyn but Dante's secretly loved one.
Legend has it that it was made by Henry VIII and his once unrequited love for Anne Boleyn, who later became his second wife. Some say that it wasn't written by him though but either way it is about a lover spurned.
Actually... It was King Henry VIII And yet that is not a picture of the beautiful Anne Boleyn.

Whatever the history may be on the song, it is all besides the point. The point is, it is a fantastic song that really makes you relax.
