I know Medieval England had already been cut down at the Battle of Bosworth and replaced by the Tudors and the beginning of the modern age and empire by the time this song was written but it still takes me to the idealistic chivalry and romance of Medieval England so perfectly. You can imagine a Knight and a Lady walking in a forest ,trees gently swaying. A haunting song of the best kind
Gosh, the 1st time i heard her sing over the radio, I fall in love with her vocal immediately. She will be one of my fav. singers singing new age/traditional songs ^^
I love Amy's clear, pure voice. I love what a good actress and singer she is, she was very moving in Downton Abbey, It would be awesome if some of the Hollywood producers out there would cast her in musicals, she has been successful on the screen and on the stage, and I think she would be better than most of the voices we have in film adaptations of musicals today.

Holy $@#% I was not expecting this degree of awesomeness when I clicked on this video! So much creativity with arranging the lyrics, phrasing, dynamic, everything very well done! Shiver inducing!
i love this song, i listened to it the whole day it was so beautiful but also sad. it was overall a wonderful song. i found this song on one of my violin pieces, and i just fell in love. the best song ever.
Même les français adorent cette chanson! Elle est magnifiquement bien chantée par Amy Nuttal! Bravo à cette merveilleuse chanteuse!!! Quelle voix! J'en pleure! :-)
Lands roughly around 1547 during Elizabeth I reign when such amazing pieces were being done. Still hits as hard as it did then. Alas Taylor Swift dominates the charts. How we have fallen with music.
0:17 0:39 1:01 1:24 1:50 2:14 Alas, my love, you do me wrong To cast me off discourteously; And I have loved you so long, Delighting in your company. My smock of gold so crimson red, With pearls bedecked sumptuously. The like no other lasses had, And yet thou wouldst not love me. Greensleeves was all my joy, Greensleeves was my delight; Greensleves was my heart of gold, And who but my Greensleeves? Thou couldst desire no earthly thing, But still thou hadst it readily; Thy music still to play and sing, And yet thou wouldst not love me. Well, I pray to God on high, That my constancy mayest see, And that yet once before I die, Thou wilt vouchsafe to love me. Greensleeves was all my joy, Greensleeves was my delight; Greensleves was my heart of gold, And who but my Greensleeves? Aahh... Greensleeves, now farewell! Adieu! God I pray to prosper thee; For I am still thy lover true, Come once again and love me. Aahh...
+j rajendran jayaraman My favourite of any I've heard was from a talk on modal music, where it was played and sung in its original modal tuning. (This version, as are most modern renderings, has been adapted to modern tuning.) It was achingly beautiful, just gobsmacking ... but I can't find it, or remember who it was. *Anyone know?*
+ShadowinaCave My other favourite is a Christmas song version which I had heard in my childhood in the early 80s. Sudden bout of nostalgia got me searching. Didn't find it but discovered this gem instead. Do let me know if u find that modal tuning version.
i hum this song to get my baby to sleep- the low tones somehow soothe him and my husband asked me why I was humming a Christmas song lol. I told him What Child is This and Greensleeves are the same melody and Greensleeves is what I am humming.
Greensleeves is my all time favourite, always makes me think of England's green and pleasant land....Love this version. and no, I don't think we're related...shame !! :)
Amy has a unique voice and especially the way of singing. Creative way. Unparallel.
Amy Nuttall raises this wonderful old song up to a new level, and gives it a classiness that I have not heard before. Thank you Amy.
I'm youth japanese , I think so your comment.
Sweet melodius voice for this classic song
This song is perfect. She's and her voice is wonderful!
Absolutely beautiful....the very best version of this phenomenal song I have ever heard, and I have heard so many.
Thankyou Amy,, for singing this lovely old song so angelicly, Touche's one's heart!
I used to like techno and drum and bass but im all about british folk now!
Beautiful truly beautiful.
***** This was written by Henry VIII
***** This is Early Modern English, not Old English.
Cockney Jon Uk Metal Detecting Haha. you IDIOT!!!!! It's a common misconception, i would explain the reason behind it, but i doubt you'd understand.
+outlawstarjakob please do. im sure I'll understand
Sorry i was wrong, It was Greensleeves that was written by Henry the V111, My mistake oops
This is without any doubt one of the loveliest versions of this song. All thumbs up here :D
A great version of the prettiest song....
This is so beautiful that I cannot explain how beautiful it is. So beautiful.
I know Medieval England had already been cut down at the Battle of Bosworth and replaced by the Tudors and the beginning of the modern age and empire by the time this song was written but it still takes me to the idealistic chivalry and romance of Medieval England so perfectly.

Emotions enhanced many times by a highly sophisticated orchestration !
Bu sadece müzik değil... Tüm duyguları barındıran olağanüstü bir şey bu.
Magnifique voix et chanson, je ne peux plus m'arrêter de l'écouter.
L'Anglais est une langue merveilleuse !
Gosh, the 1st time i heard her sing over the radio, I fall in love with her vocal immediately. She will be one of my fav. singers singing new age/traditional songs ^^
That voice is eternal. 🥰
Nobody sang it better. 😁 This is my favourite version of my favourite song.

It doesn't matter what Amy sings it sends shivers.From this to Scarbourgh Fair so enchanting.
I used to just like this song. Now I love this song. You have one of the most beautiful voices I have had the pleasure of hearing.
Lands roughly around 1547 during Elizabeth I reign when such amazing pieces were being done.
Still hits as hard as it did then.
Alas Taylor Swift dominates the charts. How we have fallen with music.
oh my good Lord............ Such a beautiful voice!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm in the middle school chorus and I'm doing this song for a solo ensemble at the Weeki Wachee high school and I love the song!

To cast me off discourteously;

Come once again and love me. Aahh...
Probably the best version of Greensleeves ever.
