Aldous Harding & Marlon Williams - The Trees They Do Grow High

[@Littlemouse884]

I played this balad to my rescue cat when I first got her and she still loves it 🖤🐈‍⬛👣

[@emilbaur6285]

It's like going to a time machine.. their voices.. so authentic.. and somehow so ancient. I feel like I'm getting to hear how people sang in the old times

[@Steerpikey]

Two of the best singer songwriters of my generation. Delighted to see their growth and evolve with them

[@Littlemouse884]

I love this bard so much as it so captures that whole era (and history)...spot on

[@bingonamo7520]

Two talented Kiwi's from Lyttelton, New Zealand.

[@cboag3]

Aldous and Marlon the old folk influence in your music is beautiful!

[@marlonwilliams3034]

Thanks for loving and listening to my music,I really appreciate you for the so much love you've expressed and shown. Will love to hear from you again💯❤️

[@cherfr6]

This just helped me : The trees they grow high, The leaves they do grow green Many is the time my true love I've seen Many an hour I have watched him all alone He's young, But he's daily growing Father, dear father, You've done me great wrong You have married me to a boy who is too young I'm twice twelve and he is but fourteen He's young, But he's daily growing Daughter, dear daughter, I've done you no wrong I have married you to a great lord's son He'll make a lord for you to wait upon He's young, But he's daily growing Father, dear father, if you see fit We'll send him to college for one year yet I'll tie blue ribbons all around his head To let the maidens know that he's married One day I was looking o'er my father's castle wall I spied all the boys as playing with the ball My own true love was the flower of them all He's young, but he's daily growing At the age of fourteen, he was a married man At the age of fifteen, the father of a son At the age of sixteen, his grave it was green And death had put an end to his growing

I remember when this was one of the only songs on KZbin of Aldous's - bar maybe 2 others filmed in NZ. Would listen to them over and over. I love watching her face in this, she looks so serene. Be still my heart!

[@wildrosecece]

Happy New Year. 2022. Whoever sees this, hope this year is awesome

[@robertd8351]

What a lovely performance. I have listened to this many times and commented once (at least). Really should be in the best of of the best of's.

[@paddyedwards]

absolutely stunning Marlon & Aldous- great song choice and your voices are so well suited in this range

[@havilahfarm1591]

Beautiful couple make beautiful harmonies. Energy between them is magnetic.

[@jenniferparmenter3708]

I have had the intense pleasure of seeing both Marlon Wiliams at the Newport Folk Festival and Aldous Harding at Iceland Airwaves, and in Boston most recently. Hearing their voices together is, sublime. So good, so real.

[@rosinabondnumerologyandbus4263]

Amazing - they sing like angels So inviting and soulful

[@pauldolan9077]

Combination of 2 voices at same time is spine tinglingly beautiful

[@altongrimes]

O man, drop dead beautiful music. What a great blend of voices. Magnificent

[@labarga8760]

La première fois que j'ai pu apprécier cette balade anglaise , c'était la grande Joan Baez qui la chantait... Et puis savoir qu'à cette époque médiévale , les gens se mariaient à 14 ans , c'était nouveau pour nous.Merci les Kiwis pour cette performance.

[@robertd8351]

J'avais reconnu cette chanson de Baez sans trop savoir. Merci de m'en rappeler (de Montreal).

[@jenniferparmenter3708]

Sooooooo beautiful. I saw Marlon at Newport Folk Festival and Aldous at Iceland Airwaves. Would love to see them together!! xoxo's to you Marlon and Aldous. You have inspired me so much, I swoon every time I hear you both!

[@jamesminogue2177]

Stunning! Such beautiful voices in close harmony.

[@sambell385]

WOW! You don’t hear or see this often, stunning stuff.

[@kerrypolly1252]

Fantastic balanced harmony and duet.

[@gg41r]

Love this song. Its sung brilliantly by them both.

[@jt20042]

Incredible! These two need to make an album together. Thank you for sharing!

[@philipferguson8570]

They're very successful artists in their own individual rights here in New Zealand - they come from a small harbour town - and they are also a couple. Marlon is more a country singer and Aldous (Hannah) is more a kind of atmospheric folk-pop singer. But, yeh, they sound really good together.

[@puscifer10000]

I was under the impression they were no longer together?

[@helenl6593]

Loving this today. Sublime harmony!

[@WhitestWaters]

How much do I love this duo
