I love this version. It is the truest I've heard to the old folk song, and it is easy to understand the lyrics. The simplicity fits the spirit of the tune.

My grandfather taught my sister and I this song in 1942 I was five years old. Our sur name is Dotson and my grandmothers maden name was Hudson. Pretty much English.
On a front porch swing on an Oklahoma farm. I rememberded every word and my Grandfather.
He died shortly after. He was a wealthy man his treasures I was denied. But he taught no one else "Bahara Allen".

Thank you, Mr. Sondahl, love the way you do this ballad. Sounds more authentic to the period. Listen to Greensleeves by the King's Singers, think you would like it. Maybe you would consider doing a version of Greensleeves.

Greensleeves is my big Youtube hit (couple hundred thousand views), but I didn't sing with it... You can find it searching Sondahl and Greensleeves.

I enjoy this version. I teach 12th grade language arts, and I used my new LCD projector to show this video to my classes when I taught Medieval ballads. I hope the performer doesn't mind. I mean it as a compliment. I'm also a guitar finger picker and string player. I enjoy the performance on that level, too. It's not super difficult, but it's nice.

That's fine with me. Youtube implies public use... Most of my other guitar work is more complex, but you don't want to overpower a ballad with fingerwork...
