Is it my imagination or has Oysterband re-recorded this song to sound a little more like the Great Big Sea cover version of it?
This version is better than their original one. Great song all around, one of my favorites.

Huh?

I'm French and i listen to this kind of music, I really love it ! Oysterband is great :D

@MusicWriter1965 - agreed...I do enjoy Deep Dark Ocean myself...I was introduced to this band through that album when I spent the summer along the Atlantic coast, very surreal album for a reminiscent time.
Deserters is right behind it, in my book. I liked their Oxford Girl compilation/re dedication project as well.

Anyone else think of the 4 hour warning on Viagra

I noticed some folks here are new to the Oysterband. I defintely recommend their albums Holy Bandits, From Little Rock to Leipzeig and The Deserter, all from the '90s. Those are their best, I think. "Ride," from 1989 was pretty strong too, but more produced and funkier

I love this song! My thanks to a fb friend who sent me this video. I looked up this group on Wikipedia & learned that they are from Great Britain. I'm sorry I'm late in finding out about them. I added this video to my fb page & to my online collection of YouTube music/dance video gems. That collection is called jambalayah. Most but obviously not all of the videos showcased in that collection are from African American or other Black cultures around the world.
Thanks again for a great song!

Sorry: GBS covered it on "Play" in 1997. It appeared on Oysterband's "Holy Bandits" in 1993.

@ThePhobia18 Actually, it's an original Oysterband song (1993, written by Ian Telfer, Alan Prosser & John Jones of the Oysterband) and GBS covered it in 1995.
