Westerners thinks Gypsies are soooo cool and fine, but they haven't been in Romania! Gypsies should be civilised by someone, but nobody is giving them a chance, and so the gypsies remain unschooled and uncivilised. Sad!

It's very very similar to a song by the italian singer and musician Angelo Branduardi, who often gets his inspiration from celtic songs; anyway this time I think the two songs are almost identical. Branduardi's song is titled "Vanità di vanità"... Does anyone know it,or the singer? I wanna know your opinions! :)

[GERLORIEL]

Very nice music!

Success.

It's interesting how song subjects genders get changed This song is "The Gypsy Laddie" / "Black Jack Davy"/"Raggle Taggle Gypsies"

Lad. = Laddie = Young boy

Lass = Lassie = Young girl

----

The song "House of the Rising Sun" also had gender-subject (of song) changes.

So did the original lyrics of the earlist versions of "St. James Infirmary" ( from the 1500's)

The Modern lyrics for "Shady Grove" are totally different than the original (1400's/1500's -

ballad of adultery & murder)

@madmiguelh2o - "Scottish"

"The Gypsy Laddie" (Roud, Child 200), also known as "Black Jack Davy" and "The Raggle Taggle Gypsies" among many other titles, is a Border ballad, possibly written about 1720 on the Scottish side of the border. The ballad has often been used and recorded in many different variations in Scotland and England from the 18th century, the United States, Canada from the 19th century, and more recently Ireland from the 1970s" -wikipedia

This rendition :))

I love this song. Just to be an annoying youtube snob though i gotta bust the title. Pretty sure its. a Scottish/English song although lots of Irish musicians have played it...probably better. Although I think this Hungarian dude plays it the best
