This tune was played at my wedding, now almost 40 years ago. We met at a Scottish Games and never looked back. John Turner, champion Scottish fiddler, officiated and played the fiddle. A wonderful day …
Cannot get enough of them! They are so adorable and magical, just make you fall in love with Ireland again and again! I would love to see them live perform
This song was played at my sister's wedding when she married my bil from Scotland. Still love that song all these years later. And my sister's name is Mary lol!
I accidentally clicked on this recommendation & was stunned! YT waited about 9 years. This song took me to the past life. Greetings from Great Britain (Tue 30 Mar 2021 ) Lyrics: Step we gaily, on we go Heel for heel and toe for toe Arm in arm and row in row All for Marie’s wedding [Chorus] Step we gaily, on we go Heel for heel and toe for toe Arm in arm and row in row All for Marie’s wedding [Verse 1] Over hillways up and down Myrtle green and bracken brown Past the sheeling, through the town All for sake of Marie [Chorus] Step we gaily, on we go Heel for heel and toe for toe Arm in arm and row in row All for Marie’s wedding [Verse 2] Red her cheeks as rowans are Bright her eyes as any star Fairest of them all by far Is our darling Marie Step we gaily, on we go Heel for heel and toe for toe Arm in arm and row in row All for Marie’s wedding [Chorus] Step we gaily, on we go Heel for heel and toe for toe Arm in arm and row in row All for Marie’s wedding [Verse 3] Plenty herring, plenty meal Plenty peat to fill her creel Plenty bonny bairns as well That’s the toast for Marie [Chorus] Step we gaily, on we go Heel for heel and toe for toe Arm in arm and row in row All for Marie’s wedding [Chorus] Step we gaily, on we go Heel for heel and toe for toe Arm in arm and row in row All for Marie’s wedding Step we gaily, on we go Heel for heel and toe for toe Arm in arm and row in row All for Marie’s wedding.
My mother was called Marie and she was from the Scottish Highlands but she lived in London from when she was 17 - my kids loved this song as they related it to her although she spent most of her life in London
I am a descendant of Irish imigrants. I am so happy to hear music of my ancestors :) this makes me want to go to Ireland more and more when I listen to this awesome band.
Interesting fact: As long as you can prove that you have Irish heritage, you can claim Irish citizenship while knowing next to nothing about Ireland, and you don't even have to have gone to Ireland.
This song is the only thing that ever calms down my 11 month old son. Hurt, tired, hungry - it doesn't matter. This song is his preferred favorite and works everytime!
My maternal great-grandmother came from Ireland (Cork City) Easter Time 1916 and married with a spanish man with only 17 years old, she came alone in a boat direction New York City but the bad weather and the impossibility to continues travelling, she stayed in Santander city. She had a bad memories from the Irish Civil War but in Spain she was very very happy with 22 children. From Santander she always remembered Ireland and her family who never has seen again, She had Ireland in the heart forever and ever!! Listen the traditional irish music join me with my great grandmother and with her roots.
My old tute teacher in high-school I think it was got me into the High Kings music. I have loved it ever since. It is is just so joyous and definitely the best bar songs.
I love this!!! I love these guys, they have that something- magical, spiritual, charisma that takes your breath away when listening to them performing.. Thank you to the uploader ☺️

First off not everyone can afford international travel, but it’s much more conceivable for a band that already has done international tours to do them again. Second, you’re rude attempt to guess my age failed. Even if I was my parent’s age, how narrow minded to assume someone acts in a certain way because of a negative stereotype. While my comment was meant to give a compliment to one of my favorite bands, yours seems only to attempt to be rude to me. There’s so much more reason to try to be positive to others rather than try to needle people into aggravation.
@@user-mw8ty7ky8e Europe is the one place in the world you can fly two hours in any direction for $200 and be in a different country with different culture and language.

All for sake of Marie
[Chorus]
Step we gaily, on we go
Heel for heel and toe for toe
Arm in arm and row in row
All for Marie’s wedding

Arm in arm and row in row
All for Marie’s wedding
[Chorus]
Step we gaily, on we go
Heel for heel and toe for toe

Plenty herring, plenty meal
Plenty peat to fill her creel
Plenty bonny bairns as well
That’s the toast for Marie

That's why I love Irish, good mood, good music, I love you Irland and I hope to go back soon to Cork
