[@itsmentallyill]

This is music exactly how I like it. Being from Zimbabwe this genre could have missed me completely. Ever so grateful for whoever played me Fields of Athenry those many years ago. It lead me to this and much more. Next is to visit a pub in Dublin where I can listen to some live sets. Not sure which pub is best for this but I shall find out.

I wish, I wish so much I had access to Scottish and Irish music when I was young. I listen as much as I can to this music. Making up for 40 years of lost time.

As long as you get to hear em, as an irishman, im glad...happy you like them so much! Thats always dope

[@stevenhaines9489]

I’ve been listening to the Irish and Scot music lately. Most of my family are Norwegian. I live in the Florida Keys. But I’ve always been drawn to the music. I’m 46 and grew up in the states. I just love the music!!!

I'm not of any sort of Celtic descent, but I have a strong background in music. And The High Kings have more musicality than many other comparable groups. Their vocal blending is absolutely amazing, and the accompaniment is perfectly suited. I tip my hat to you, High Kings, and I thank Pandora Radio for introducing me to you!

[@davidsheridan09]

I remember the Clancy Brothers singing this when I was a very young child. This song has always touched my heart for some reason. I think it is the melody/ air. It makes me happy and sad at the same time.

[@jasonenglish8133]

Keep the Celtic music going. This was played at funeral for each of the Clancy brothers. Tommy Clancy's son Finbarr is in this band and is keeping the flag flying.

[@artlinkassociatesllp6104]

Finnbarr Clancy dad is Bobby Clancy not Tom Clancy or Tommy Makem.

[@jeffbezoz4868]

Wth

[@gaelicgirlfilly]

I also noticed Aoife Clancy sitting in the crowd on this song. My family and I listen to Cherish The Ladies, and still have CDs from when she was a founding member of the group. Lovely voice!

[@briansivley2001]

Of course she would be there to watch her brother Finbarr Clancy perform with his new group. I'm sure the rest of the family was there.

[@Larstig81]

As a 39 years old Dutch guy, I can easily sing together with them. This song is something special I think.

[@tarafaith8061]

I'm from the USA and love the High kings- listened to them on a road trip with my sisters in Ireland and saw them play live in Cork- after the show they gave autographs and when we said we came from California to see them they said "Awesome" in that cali way! Thank you High kings for being so awesome!!

[@janetmenzies3506]

Will ye go, Lassie go? And we'll all go together To pluck wild mountain thyme All around the blooming heather Will ye go, Lassie go?

And we'll all go together To pluck wild mountain thyme All around the blooming heather Will ye go, Lassie go? If my true love she were gone I would surely find another To pluck wild mountain thyme Grows around the blooming heather Will ye go, Lassie go?

First time I heard this song was at a intertribal gathering, song by a scottish-cherokee brother, with just him and his guitar, he said the scottish colonized the ozarks mountains where the cherokee lived, and they lived together in the mountains, so i always thought it come from there. Either way , I always appreciated the tribal-clannish styles of the irish-scottish people more than any other european group!!

Many of you will know that the lad with the guitar is Liam Clancy's son ( or nephew). He sang this in the cemetery after Liam's funeral - it's up on YT, somewhere. You know you're in Ireland when you have 50 people in a cemetery, in the rain, singing a Capella, and it sounds like a choir.

There is no doubt that this is a scottish song, but Irish and Scottish trad music is very similar. I would say Ireland has remembered and revived alot of our trad songs and Scotland doesn't remember alot of their traditional songs. Great song, beautifully sung.

Two of my great-grandmothers were products of what I'm sure was considered at the time to be race mixing. How could an Irishman possibly call an English woman his wife? How far she has fallen! How could an English man possibly call a Welsh woman his wife? Oh the shame he has brought upon his family. Sorry I'm not Scottish, but I'm just saying 4 of my 16 great-great grandparents weren't stupid. They came to America where all that old world bullshit could go fuck itself.
