Hi, all ye good friends !:))

There is always something special
with this old traditional that
I´ve always loved so much. IMO this
song is something of the most beautiful
ever written.

I am not doing it the justice it would
require but then again there is the following
story to it.

Many years ago when my wife still lived
we were driving around in Scotland and
naturally we did visit the beautiful Loch
Lomond also. Little did I then know that
I was not destined to walk on the bonnie
bonnie banks together with my wife ever again
as she died a couple of years afterwards.

I beg all Scottish and English to forgive
this old Finlander for mixing both languages
performing this beautiful song but have mercy
with me as i was carried away by my emotions
and the nostalgia that the tune always awakes
in me whenever I hear it !

The song should be in the Public Domain, at least
I did see it on a list of UK PD songs !

Dani,

This is absolutely beautiful - gave me chills... I loved it and think it's the best thing vocally I've ever heard from you - your range is incredible and full of emotion.

Hi Dani!

You told me in a PM that you aren't a classically trained singer, but I would never guess that from this piece! This sounds like something that would be part of an album made by a famous orchestra!

Like you, I love this song.. my music collection probably has twenty different versions of it, mostly celtic arrangements. Your version is quite different from any other I've heard... a very beautiful difference. More classic, less celtic.

I identify with what Bob said about the chills... (Although its so hot today here in North Carolina that I'd welcome chills any way I could get them)

Good song for you.. it shows off some capabilities we haven't in your other songs to date. You are a man who is just FULL of surprises! Keep it up!

GREAT!!! Like Pat we've heard mostly traditional celtic versions.
You've taken it to a new and excellent place.

The POWERFUL vocal and production make this an instant
classic.

Congrats!!

PS No problems with the public domain on this one my friend. It was
published in 1841 and that makes it PD even by the strict US
standards!

Hi, Pat !


How nice if I could
bring some chills to you
on a hot day !!!

Seriously, I have not trained
my voice professionally but
I have done some arias with
one Chamber Choir up here

I confess that I wanted to
show you what I sound like
when singing with a breast voice
and not, like in barbershop, with
a headvoice !:))

Muchas gracias, Pat, para tus
palabras bonitisimas !

Cheers
Dani

Floyd nailed it! I always loved your vocals but had no idea you could do something so traditional so well. I know this song but did not know it by name. This is an OUTSTANDING (like I said, Floyd said it right) vocal-Awesome job!! Take care. Greg

Hi, Guenter !:)

Dear friend, I do feel humble
by your assessment though
I do not consider myself
capable of singing like this
long enough to become professional !
I should have started some 50 years
ago and maybe...

But, as always, I do feel proud for your
most kind words !

Cheers
Dani

Hi Dani

Beautifully done, It took me there my mind’s eye, every hill, valley, loch and village, with its little stone pub, where I can imagine this song having being sung over so many years. Pure nostalgia.

Dani,

You have really excelled yourself with this arrangement and performance. This is my new favourite 'Dani48' song. Like you, I reckon this is one of the prettiest melodies around.

Superb work!

All the best,
Noel
