Nice one. Anachie Gordon was ma Granda by teh way (nae relation). I was just thinkin when ah watched the sunrise this mornin' "there's the sun". Ah can be quite deep at times, but I only speak for masel. A spokesman for no one. Don't put all that crap on me. How can others write books about me,,when ah don't know what ah' m talkin aboot masel, Shuggy Dylan ps Scotland rocks!! Thought ah seen the Loch Ness Monster wance, but jist the wife wi her teeth oot

Sorry but the definitive version is by Nic Jones in my humble opinion.

Loreena's version is almost painfully beautiful. Thought it had ruined me for all other versions, but this one by Lark and Spur is wonderful. Not as lush a production as Loreena's but that's one reason why I like it. The vocals and lyrics are more up-front and immediate, but still very soft and delicate. Beautiful interpretation!

07kyal, Loreena's is the very best. Thanks for mentioning it.

Yes, i agree with you. I've got the song from Loreena McKennitt - Annachie Gordon on a CD.

i love the british one day might marry a girl from scotland or englend
how can you reference Sinead O'Connor without mentioning Mary Black???? Sadly its not on youtube, but she sang the defininitive version of this number during a Christy Moore gala for irish tele about 1980, most moving thing i ever heard. Only scolding for the lack of Black, in all other respects i mean alot of respect, this is a sweet version. Bravo!

Didn't know that Mary had recorded it. Have amended the description to include her.
