American Folk Song :

Oh, Shenandoah, I long to hear you
Way, you rollin' river
Oh Shenandoah, I long to hear you.
Away w'ere bound to go
'Cross the wide Missouri.

Oh Shenandoah, I love your daughter
Way, you rolling river
Oh Shenandoah, I love your daughter
Away, we're bound to go
'cross the wide Missouri

'Tis seven long years since last I see thee
Way, you rollin' river
'Tis seven long years since last I see thee
Away w'ere bound to go
'Cross the wide Missouri.

Oh Shenandoah, I'm bound to leave you
Way, you rollin' river
Oh Shenandoah, I'll not deceive you,
Away w'ere bound to go
'Cross the wide Missouri.

We recorded this in 1975 (The Techmen from Virginia Tech) and sang it on a European tour. Great arrangement and nice video. Brings back great memories of my college days.

Lovely video, great singing. Have been to America 6 times & have been made welcome every time. Loved every trip, been to most of the east coast also California. As an Englishman & a Londoner, I say god bless America. The people that say they hate America & Americans, don`t really, because they have probably never met Americans or been to the States, I would think they disagree with certain policies that America pursue.

Nothing like the sound of a fine men's chorale...just outstanding!!

[theted1993]

Some of the finest choral music in America came from the Shaw"s Chorale in the 50's and 60's. The men's sound in absolutely incredible. This came from an album of sea chanty's recorded in the 50's. Most of the arrangements on the album were by Alice Parker and Robert Shaw, including this one. Find the song "Lowlands" from the same album if you'd like another spine-tingler.

Hi. Many thanks for coming back to me. Just to let you know, if the question would be asked of most English people,where would you like to visit? I would think over 50% would say America. Our 1st visit was to Nth & Sth Carolina & Georgia. We as tourists obviously visited the nicer parts,[ we as well as America do have deprived areas] Enjoyed Savannah & Charleston.New England ,beautiful !!.

A London dish would be Pie & Mash & liquor.Manzi`s,Tower Bridge Rd. Unique pies, Liquor= Parsley sauce.

@Teddyb1939 and worked in the Timeshare business for 16 years loved meeting so many different people from all sorts of cultures and backgrounds. Especially when the English came in we would talk about food, (crumpets)and Masterpiece Theatre. Can't wait till Downton Abbey 2nd Series hits America!!! Just finished Larkrise to Candleford, Bummer that it finished on the 4th Series.
