Don't worry friend, gracefully relinquish your youth for the present, the sun still shines, your life still has meaning. I wish you the best. Life is constantly changing.
I've listened to a few other versions of this since hearing this one and I gotta say, not ONE of them does to me what this one does. This version just about puts me in a trance and transports me to a different plane of being. It's incredible. I get chills every time the bass kicks in.
If anybody wants the lyrics, here you go: If all the young men were like hares on the mountain How soon the young girls would get guns and go hunting? If all the young men sang like blackbirds and thrushes How soon the young girls would go shaking bushes? If all the young men were like hares on the mountain How soon the young girls would get guns and go hunting? If all the young girls were like ducks on the water How soon the young men would turn drake and dive under? If all the young men were like hares on the mountain How soon the young girls would get guns and go hunting? If all the young girls were like fish in the river How soon the young men would undress and dive under?
Listen to this one then ua-cam.com/video/XHF4kcMod8w/v-deo.html Radie Peat from the band Lankum. Also listen to their "Hunting the Wren" and "Dark Horse"
@@slydoll7877 Awful, why do people insist on turning this light hearted, flirtatious English folk song into a tuneless dirge. Don't you people actually listen to the lyrics?
George Daniels No it doesn't capture the 'vibe' at all - it is a modern affectation. These old songs would have been sung unaccompanied in pubs and at social gatherings.
@@Wotsitorlabart And why do people such as yourself feel the need to rain on another’s parade simply because you disagree? No shame in having an opposing opinion but if this man enjoys this song and thinks this is the best version he’s heard, then who are you to shit on his enjoyment? Shame.
This song makes me feel a deep sense of gratitude. Tomorrow I will have a photoshoot, the first after more than one year, to organize this session has been matter to go against myself, cause I suffer from anxiety and depression. Half an hour ago, I had to stop to set up everything to be ready for tomorrow, because a panic attack was making me breathless, then, this song started playing in a random playlist, I never listened it before. And then, slowly, it soothed me. Thus, the gratitude. Thank you @AllThemWitches and @Dreary Ghost
You are strong,with the Power of all them witches,i whish you good luck, make your Fotoshooting, in some years ITS away 🤗🙏🎶✌️☺️🤘🍀🌞😘😘😊🤘🏵️ i have also Depression since Iam 18 jears. Now Iam a Bit older😅. ITS hard i know😔..any single step you don't do , is a Losting Time.greetings fromm Germany, iwish you good Karma 🍀☯️👌🤘
Other versions of this song are really charming and beautiful. But if I were going to make a movie about, let's say, Wolfe Tone's rebellion, this is *exactly* what I'd want to use in the soundtrack.
@@FlowerPowerRockGirl This is an old folk tune, so there are a lot of different versions of it out there - a lot of the other versions are really upbeat! ATW's version is very melancholy, so I feel like it'd be perfect as part of a movie about something regretful and sad, and a failed attempt by Ireland to gain independence was the first thing that came to mind as an appropriate story.
Discovered this song from the Faoileán version about a week ago (Their version's pretty good by the way, I'd recommend it), But after listening to a few others, I think this is definitely my favourite. Dang. Just hauntingly beautiful.
Oh Sally my dear, it's you I'd be kissing Oh Sally my dear, it's you I'd be kissing She smiled and replied, you don't know what you're missing Oh Sally my dear, I wish I could wed you Oh Sally my dear, I wish I could bed you She smiled and replied, then you'd say I'd misled you If all you young men were hares on the mountain If all you young men were hares on the mountain How many young girls would take guns and go hunting? If the young men could sing like blackbirds and thrushes If the young men could sing like blackbirds and thrushes How many young girls would go beating the bushes? If all you young men wеre fish in the water If all you young mеn were fish in the water How many young girls would undress and dive after? But the young men are given to frisking and fooling Oh the young men are given to frisking and fooling So I'll leave them alone and attend to my schooling

Type in the Alt J version of this song
It's so good.
Dreary Ghost yes I love this version too
Have you heard the Shirley Collins version?
Doesn't even compare
Alt J version is indeed even more hypnotizing

This always makes me grieve my youth as it falls away into the mist of the past.

Beautiful thanks a Lot ✌️☺️seems to be the Text want US to say, that men needs Woman an Woman needs men to survive,together??😅💪☮️😘
I absolutely love this version of the lyrics, really turns a lot of the other versions of the lyrics up on their head.
Thank you for this I loved everyword
I love it when two of my thoroughly enjoyed and vastly different genres come together!
easily the best version of this song i've ever heard, captures the old atmospheric folk vibe of it so perfectly

I can't stop listening to this, it's incredible.
Beautiful. Reminds me of Dead Can Dance.
Masterpiece!
Been playing it on repeat, it reminds me of the soundtrack of Guy Ritchie's King Arthur which has a great score.
This is one of the most intense songs I know. I just love how it all slowly builds up. So beautiful 🖤.🖤

all them witches are definitly 1 of the best bands at this time ❤❤❤
Brilliant! These guys turned on themselves in a great Band!
This song blow my mind
Re Sda Same, can't get enough of this
There's an incredible amount of emotion in that guitar at the end. Such a simple song, but ATW makes it magic.
It is just a magic!!! 😮❤️
If you don't get chills from this you must be dead! ❤
This deserved more views.
one day I was listening to this like 30 times in a row.
Hermosa cancion. Gracias por compartir.
This version makes me think of ancient soldiers tacking their horses and preparing for battle in the early dawn, LOTR style
Sounds so much like Dead Can Dance!
Beyond Epic, these guys are amazing
Close your eyes and go somewhere else for 5 minutes
Great advice, I’m taking it. Thanks for the post, it’s been one of those, your voice still has sound 2 y later ❤️
@@SmileyDN
Actually, not such good advice.
If you did as J.P. suggests you would keep bumping into things.
With possible dire consequences.
@@Wotsitorlabart Definitely probably questionable advice if you’re driving.
I'd love to hear all or most of the places everyone goes in that dream.
🍄 where was that. I've been there before..
Superb 👍👍. First I’ve heard this one. So good👍👍😍😍

Peace on Earth👌✌️❤️🦋😍💯🔥🙏🏵️🍀
If the Mike Tyson ring entrance drone had a baby with an old folk song
I don't know why, but it reminds me of the style of some native American songs
I'm addicted to this fucking song. YEAH!
The hare shows up when you need and you didn't know he was there or you need him. Always just in time. Be a hare .!!
No thanks
@@NoxForest to bad because you just did.. thanks for showing up here right now hare..
This is Intense in an awesome way. 🌼💙🌼💙
This and the version from Lankum are the best ones.
This cool guy. I'm from holland

Oh Sally my dear, it's you I'd be kissing
Oh Sally my dear, it's you I'd be kissing
She smiled and replied, you don't know what you're missing
Oh Sally my dear, I wish I could wed you
Oh Sally my dear, I wish I could bed you
She smiled and replied, then you'd say I'd misled you
If all you young men were hares on the mountain
If all you young men were hares on the mountain
How many young girls would take guns and go hunting?
If the young men could sing like blackbirds and thrushes
If the young men could sing like blackbirds and thrushes

LISTEN TO THE DAVY GRAHAM AND SHIRLEY COLLINS VERSION
Faoileans version is still my favorite, but this is great too
Those 2 dislikes must have been on accident
💗💗💗💗💗💗
Here we go music ride for today
ZEPPELIN REBORN🔊😎
With his dad go rest high on that mountain
No Irishmen were killed during the recording of this song
So glad
The song's pitchshifted half a tone up D:
Alt-j fukked up any hope of a lyric search on this one.
19 CHILDREN
RESPECT
I much prefer Shirley's version
Good interpretation but still love the Shirley Collins traditional pagan peasant vibe.
ua-cam.com/video/LrQK0Gg4Aw0/v-deo.html
Nowhere near as good as Shirley Collins.
In your opinion, opinions differ.
I hope everybody knows this song is a cover.
