Have you heard the Sweeney's Men track by Andy Irvine ? kzbin.info/www/bejne/mmiloHp-ZayWrtU The story is, he looked up the wrong tune for the lyrics and invented this classic version that people have followed ever since. He revisited it decades later for a lovely re-make: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qainqGuseKmXd8U

I first heard Martin Carthy sing this some 50 years ago followed by a few others. You two lads easily stand with the rest in your singing of it here. The same tears from fifty years ago were again shed in one of the most beautiful ballads I've ever heard. Thank you, the film maker, Mr. FJ Child's efforts and especially the unknown souls who carried this story forward. Just a stunningly beautiful song.

I've listened carefully to the versions from Olivia Chaney, Andy Irvine, Anais Mitchell, Sweeney's Men, Pentangle and Anne Briggs but this is by far the best. The phrasing, diction and gorgeous rich tones of Ye Vagabonds are superb. They have that particular 'Irish' tone to their voices - similar to Sinéad O'Connor and Lisa Hannigan (different to the equally gorgeous 'English' tone of, say, Olivia Chaney). It is a very distinctive and slightly breathy/nasal tone. I'm playing this Ye Vagabonds version about 5 times a day now. This video is great also and I love the Stoneybatter area in Dublin which has now become very trendy.

I've never heard a version I preferred to Pentangles'. It was our lullabye when our kids were little (along with John Barleycorn), and it is right cemented into me. Among the dolorous laments, tragedies and murder ballads I love so much, the happiest ending of any ballad anywhere, ever. But this is really, really good. Love duet singing and there's good singing with good voices, and then there's another level of magic where the sum is so much greater than the parts. These guys have got that. I've heard it called "blood harmony" because it's more often found among siblings and relatives, but whatever, these guys have got it.
