An Irish traditional this time. Mountains of Mourne Style: BZSLWLZ.STY (Bouzouki SlowWaltz Duo [100RS]) 1797:Piano, Rhythm IslandJohn Ev 110 (midi) Realtracks: 2334:String Quartet, Rhythm PopChamber Ev 085 1815:Guitar, Acoustic, Fingerpicking CelticSlowWaltz Ev 110 896:Guitar, 12-String Acoustic, Rhythm FolkRock Ev 100 1122:Bass, Acoustic, CountryWaltz Sw 110 900:Guitar, Acoustic, Strumming FolkRockWaltz Ev 150 Mountains of Mourne Oh, Mary, this London's a wonderful sight With people here working by day and by night They don't sow potatoes nor barley nor wheat But there's gangs of them diggin' for gold in the street At least when I asked them, that's what I was told So I just took a hand at this diggin' for gold But for all that I've found there, I might as well be In the place where the dark Mourne sweeps down to the sea I believe that when writin' a wish you expressed As to how the fine ladies of London were dressed But if you'll believe me, when asked to a ball They don't wear no tops to their dresses at all Oh, I've seen them myself and you could not in truth Tell if they were bound for a ball or a bath Don't be startin' them fashions now, Mary McRee, In the place where the dark Mourne sweeps down to the sea There's beautiful girls here, oh, never you mind Beautiful shapes Nature never designed Lovely complexions of roses and cream But let me remark with regard to the same That if at those roses you venture to sit The colors might all come away on your lip So I'll wait for the wild rose that's waitin' for me In the place where the dark Mourne sweeps down to the sea

Very nice. Great video. Another cover showed up on the YouTube list from Don Mclean so I could make a comparison with an artist I am familiar with. Your version is equally impressive. Can't ask for more.

Rob, you have such an amazing voice! How I wish I could make notes flow out of my vocal chords the way you can! So smooth and effortless sounding! And here we have an example of your versatility! A couple of tunes ago it was an excellent 80's style pop song, while this time it's an Irish traditional! You just don't have any boundaries do you??  The old photos in the video did a good job of visually creating a space in time for the song to reside. Without the video, the impact of the song wouldn't have been quite the same for me. Beautiful scenery to go with the beautiful song. I guess that was Anne-Marie singing harmonies... as usual a very nice job! But maybe a little bit understated. We always want to hear as much of her contribution as possible. Great job, my friends! I always enjoy everything you post, and this was no exception!

Really nicely done!! Pretty song, a superb vocal delivery, and the instrumentation could not have worked better. This is a bit different for you guys-very traditional folk sound. Some really interesting lyrics. You nailed it!! Take care. Greg

Hey Guys,
We just listened and watched...mesmerizing! The production is outstanding and particularly the vocals and the vid images. There is a wealth of great material out in the public domain just awaiting a new vibrant interpretation like this. Thanks for introducing us to this one.

Hi Pat,
Thanks for your nice words! We like to try all kinds of styles. Yes, the harmonies are Anne-Marie's. We thought the song just needed some modest harmonies. Other songs ask for more.
