The Duke of Marlborough (Live) - Maddy Prior

[acerb45666555]

Marlbourough appeares to have been in 100 places at once during the 30 Years War!

[hawkmoon03111951]

@acerb45666555 Marlborough did not take part in the 30 years war.

[uafchris]

@acerb45666555 It was the War of the Spanish Succession

[danvers0549]

I love Maddie (of course) but still adore Sandy..Who was the best singer??

[MrGodzirraman]

she is a good artist to

[MrGodzirraman]

i wish more current artists sang songs lik this

[MrGodzirraman]

is this like a traditinal song?

[MrGodzirraman]

is this a populr english song?

[hawkmoon03111951]

I would imagine that it is only known on the folk circuit.

[MrGodzirraman]

@hawkmoon03111951

thats too bad it's a nice song

[MrGodzirraman]

cool song

[acerb45666555]

2- back then, i would have smashed through the defenses around all enemy artillery emplacements, as my artillery, the captured guns, and my cavalry kept the main enemy at bay until i could turn my full force on them! id use lots of dragoons. and many sharp shooters.

[theroachksu]

It sure was a totally different brand of warfare back then.

[MrGodzirraman]

ya i'd use alot of artillery so i could pound em up

[acerb45666555]

Marlborough's Wars............yup, i would have fought for his gold! so it ended up in my pocket! remember, these were all mercenary armies mostly with a core or national regulars.

atfatw has been banned from this page

and it appears that he has re-invented himself as some Kafkaesque cockroach.

Best response option is to IGNORE IT.

[theroachksu]

Huh?? I love Maddy Prior and this song as well. It's not my fault that people can't take a fucking JOKE!! I never meant to offend anyone, but I'm not going to bow down like a bitch to some snotty-ass lesbians who haven't had a laugh since 1984.

[ednawalling]

@ParArdua

After you showed 'theroachksu' to be an opiate addict instead of a lawyer cum military genius he has now closed his account.

He'll working up a new profile as we speak. The US offers the world nothing but tricksters and charlatans, what a pathetic populace they are.

May YT be free of this pontificating poseur and hypocrite for one week at least.

Tyler Roache, Law Sudent, Kansas State University - perhaps he'll return as une femme, lol !

[banksiasong]

Roach (short for cockroach ?)

I am not British, and before you assume further (another of the failings of your country - assume much, know little), I am not from Europe or Canada either.

Unlike yourself, I do not hold pretentions to perfection. I have much before me on my journey to knowledge, but I do know ignorance when I see it. Your delusions of grandeur are quite nauseating and very unattractive.

Does the descriptor, 'Know All, Know Nothing" ring some distant cerebral bell?

[wadjela]

@banksiasong

No I think he's the "love child" of the former governor of Alaska - he's getting his nukes ready as we speak.

[it's always funny when they whine out the 'but, but, but we invented yt...' they forget that that they still use inventions of their enemies like the wheel, paper, print production, penicillin...]

He sounds like a very young boy well on his way to a life as a no responsibility taken alcoholic ;))

[hawkmoon03111951]

I've seen him posting on other channels as atfatw and giving out the same grief. Ignoring him is best. I now delete his idiotic comments.

[Pangael]

For which many of us raise a toast in your name!

[Maddy4Me]

Oh God. It's you again. Your anti-Maddy comments are never appreciated.

[atfatw]

Hi Ho maddy4me, it always kills me the way that you probably dream on about dating maddy it ain't gonna happen for one thing she is way way too old

[Maddy4Me]

I think she is the finest musician of all time. You seem to spend so much time trawling through Maddy videos to leave ridiculous comments, often highly xenophobic and hurtful.

[atfatw]

maddyjustdoesn'tlikeme, she was WAS one of the finest musicians once a long long time ago now she is just another english money grubber for whom a trillion dollars just isn't enough thats why she is abusing the stupid stupid ears of her fans with her horrible croaky old frog voice

which gets worse every year

[Maddy4Me]

You clearly didn't see her live this year, or last year, and you clearly haven't bought any of her or Steeleye's albums.

[guyosborn]

Do you look at all Maddy's songs and slag her off? Have you nothing better to do, or do you just want to irritate her fans? Are you going to go to Tina Turner's, Madonna's, Cher's, The Stones, Dylan's sites and slag them off too? I suppose you like silly little rap stuff or "hip hop" or R & B" or other worthless gangsta rubbish?

[theroachksu]

How does this only have a three-star rating? This is a wonderful performance.

[atfatw]

maddy was once,a long time ago a good singer and now she has lost ALL her talent and abuses the stupid stupid english ears of her elderly fans with her croaky old voice she just doesn't know any better or she would retire! hooray! for the french who kicked the origina lnazis the english out of their homeland

[guyosborn]

@atfatw - loser and liar! just been on your site - your comments are mostly just anti-English (easy targets - not like attacking Moslems or Black people, when you would get attacked back for racism). Gues what he says? "I am seriously studying Zen buddhism it is an excellent way to deal with the natural horribleness of human life. Is yours a special rude and vilent form of Zen. Hahahahaha. you loser

[banksiasong]

@guyosborn

His love of Maddy is like his love life, he does it by himself, and only in private.

His two Private Playlists prominantly feature Maddy and Steeleye. They are called 'Great songs here LOOK! (5 vids)' and 'Great profound songs (18 vids)'.

[ search 'atfatw' ]

[guyosborn]

@banksiasong - you are a total genius - well done, really well done - I think you are right -"he does it by himself, and only in private" - then he feels guilt, comes on here to attack Steeleye and Maddy in the hope that it works like chastising himself - golly well, spotted, he is soooooo twisted, isn't he?

[guyosborn]

@banksiasong I feel a bit guilty after looking at his pr9ivate playlists, as guilty as atfatw does after a solo love/Maddy session - one of his favourite videos is "Yoga for obesity" -

[banksiasong]

@guy

Ordinarily I would agree with you, but by his own behaviour, atfatw has forfeited the rights l would afford others.

For many months he has trolled many pages including Steeleye, British, Canadian and Dutch music and culture, SF Bay music in the 70s and left racist and sexist comments of the worst kind.

I have been trying to understand his incomprehensible behaviour as mad / bad / sad and my conclusion is he's a mixture of all, motivated by enormous sexual tension.

[banksiasong]

ps Your guilt is a good thing, it shows you are a good man.

The thing with women is that we are aurally stimulated, not visually stimulated, so we can fall for a guy who looks like the lead singer of The Pogues if can tell a tale, or has a good sense of humour.

Our corpulent friend need not lose a ton of weight, all he has to do is be respectful, and divert his sexual urges in a more socially appropriate way.

Sorry for bending your ear, all the best for a safe and happy New Year.

[theroachksu]

I think you spelled "orally" wrong LOL.

[banksiasong]

@theroachksu

Well you and your mother might think you clever, but I can see that you are definitely another arrogant Amerikan (deliberate sp - see 1970s politics) who has NOT read enough as he should, nor had much experience of romance with women folk.

'Aurally' is a real English word, not some Amglish 'made-on-the-spot-one-when-I-c­an't-think-of-one'. It is the adverb refering to the auricular sense - for you that is hearing (ears). It is a sense much underused in your country.

Fail.

[oopsydahlia]

@banksiasong

Good grief - he does think himself quite the Don. The more he talks, the more I am convinced of your original assessment. Your suggestion to him to embrace his auricular sense, has sadly fallen on 'deaf ears'.

Oh for a day on these pages without our US 'commenters'.

[guyosborn]

@atfatw I think this is maybe the only life you have - perhaps you crave love and affection and attention and any attention or reaction from other people (even bad) is better than none - so maybe the kind thing to do is to carry on replying to you, even if you do bite the hand that feeds you. I hope you had a Happy Christmas and that you enjoy success in the new year

[tippngthevelvet]

@guyosborn You are a very generous person Guy, l am glad there are still men such as yourself to act as a benchmark of behaviour for people such as FT.

My best wishes to you for a happy new year.
