"Scarborough Fair" is a traditional English folk song from the Middle Ages, referring to an old fair in Scarborough, Yorkshire. As a market fair, comprising of traders, merchants and other vendors, it started sometime in the 14th century and used to take place until the 18th century. Dry herbs
Dive deeper into the story behind this English song:
The music of the folk song is characterized by extensive harmonies and rising melodic lines. The purpose here was to develop a sensitive setting, akin to the story behind it. The song opens with acute melancholy, that then turns into a wonderful association of smooth harmonies and counter-melodies.
The lyrics of Scarborough Fair puts forward the concept of unrequited love. The yearning is felt throughout the song, creating a perfect medieval love story in the process. A young man delegates certain impossible tasks to his lover with the condition that she would have to finish those to be able to come back to him. Consequently, the lady also requests equally impossible things from the man, with the condition that she would complete her tasks when he would complete his.
The popularization of Scarborough Fair today is due to Rock & Roll greats Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel, who were introduced to it by Martin Cathy, a British singer. The song was then re-written with a song of theirs, ‘Canticle’ and its popularity rose due to its anti-war lyrics during the Vietnam war period. Added fame was brought by its presence in the Dustin Hoffman movie “The Graduate” in the year 1967, considered as one of the greatest films of all time. The tune is also audible in Simon & Garfunkel’s other compositions, such as "Mrs. Robinson".
The song was most certainly not composed by Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel as it predates them by hundreds of years. Numerous versions of lyrics apart from the Simon and Garfunkel version, exist. One of the versions has the young man asking his lover to sew a cambric seamless shirt, which is simply not feasible because cambric was a light fabric utilized for making lace and needlework. Subsequently, we have the search for a dry well to wash the shirt. The lady’s tasks for her lover include finding an acre of land between sand and sea, to plant peppercorn in it after plowing with a ram’s horn, the crafting of a leather sickle with peacock feathers, etc. Absurd as they may sound today, such elements were well-received centuries past.
About its lyrics:
A number of theories surround the song lyrics, especially the cooking spices - rosemary, sage, thyme, & parsley. Three of the most popular ones are as follows:
Some experts theorize that the song is meant as a riddle for the composer’s lover.
The young man is actually dead as the four herbs of parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme were once associated with death.
The four herbs are actually ingredients for a love potion used by witches in the medieval times.
The mention of the herbs could also be simply to accommodate a line forgotten over time, thereby not really meaning anything in particular. However, the herbs, nonetheless, had serious associations back in the day.
Parsley was a symbol of evil and sorcery. Further associations have also been made with hell. Sage is thought to bring the blessings of a long life and possible immortality. There is also a reference to it warding off the effects of the Evil Eye. Rosemary is a great element of love and relationships. As such, it is the primary ingredient of love potions and eliminates love problems. Thyme, the final herb, is of an ethereal significance, believed to get you in touch with fantastic creatures and apparitions. A solid bringer of luck and exuding good vibes, it would also assist in searching for one’s true love.
Scarborough Fair is an example of medieval outlook toward love and adventures. Though the author of the piece will never be found, we can assume that he had a penchant for all things strange and magical. Indeed, keeping with the time of its inception, such ideas were encouraged and accepted well. Moreover, the 20th century saw a globalization of this song...
Thank you 🙏

This is by far the best, most interesting, and insightful comments I have ever read. I have absolutely loved this song since I was a child. Now I know why.
Thank you.

My 9 year old son played this on guitar for my aunt’s funeral. 🙈❤️ today. For 4 weeks she was in hospital for Covid in India. We had a prayer meeting thru zoom. We are all heart broken that our precious aunt is no more with us. 💔
May your hearts ♥️ mend soon blessings to you all 😌
From the middle ages to the present day, the song is always relevant.
It's haunting how Sarah invites you to the fair like an ancient siren when she sings.
Certainly mesmerizing it is!
The original singers give birth to this song but she makes the song alive.
One of the most beautiful songs ever written sung by one of the most wonderful sopranos in music history!👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

This has a wonderful climax that rings so ancient in its wonder, it’s indescribable. Definitely the definitive version.
She is just so beautiful and the voice of an angel just magical and that's what you call a video❤
her version still melts me in 2022, just love her.
MEE to. Heard her a long time and I just adore her voice
Yes💙
Outrageous video. Saw her in 99 and in 2000 at MSG in NYC. Everything about this woman is angelical, from her spectacular voice, to the way she floats around on stage. I can't believe 20 years have gone by since I've seen her.
beautiful rendition and Sarah Brightman looks absolutely stunning but then again she always has
Além de mim, há algum brasileiro apreciando essa voz e canção celestial?❤️❤️❤️ Que voz! Que cantora! Ou anjo, diga-se de passagem!

Sim. Belíssima canção!
Realmente muito lindo !🌹
Sensação de estar escutando os anjos!!🌟

One of the most beautiful songs ever, sung by a beautiful lady with an angelic voice❗🎵💖
To think the Simon&Garfunkel version was good enough, Sarah Brightman proved me wrong and I am grateful for it!!
I can think of no other person that could sing this song with such feeling ?her voice as I have said before comes from beyond Saturn no one else in the world has this voice
Nah

All her music are all very peaceful, relaxing, & spiritual. The videos, too.
Enya and Sarah 🎶🎶🎵🎵🥰🥰
I don't think Sarah has ever had the critical recognition that in my view she undoubtedly deserves. This is a wonderful rendition of the song.
Her voice is perfect for expressing true love.
動画end歌🎵とても⤴️⤴️素敵です。好きな🎵歌でもあります🤗🎵様々な歌を🎶ありがとう御座います😆
No matter how many times listen! An emotional melody that will wash your heart.
When you listen with your eyes closed, you can see the old British scene with just the melody.
A country that fosters such wonderful music!
Kingdom of Great Britain is truly amazing!
Eyes closed.. Imagine to see the panorama of if mountains in Northern Italy.. High emotions.. Me too with tears dropping🌹
Scotland, England, Ireland and Wales are so rich in old songs, tales and legends, it's a really fertile place for songwriters.
It's just England, this song is English, Specific tribe if British Isles
@@but_iWantedTo_speakGerman Yes but the origin is certainly Celtic as the Celtic peoples are the oldest inhabitants of the British Isles having lived here for many thousands of years.
@@but_iWantedTo_speakGerman, no, it's Scottish, id.ot!
I'm glad I discovered her beautiful music
For some reason this is always one of my favorites
Wow, never heard this version before. What a voice! Haunting.
My mother loved that song, as a child didnt understand it. Now, 10 years from passing away... this melody usually sounds in my head to remember her. Thanks to the celtics for this awesome song
I've never seen this woman before nor have I heard any of her music. Hearing her voice I know one thing for sure: she is no mere woman. She is a force of nature.
Sarah is beauty personified.
She's only famous cos she married Andrew Lloyd Webber or someone like that.
@@stevelowe2647 who?
@@stevelowe2647 Wrong she is famous because her Voice Singing is Stunning!!!
@@stevelowe2647 she got into fame after her duet with Andrea Bocelli 'Time To Say Goodbye'

My heart has been deeply moved by your voice. I went very emotional after listening to this beautiful song and lady. Thank you for doing it for all of us. You are awesome, gorgeous and fantastic. Respect.
Her singing voice is unfathomable and immeasurable , and beyond description , and full of admiration and emotion , and flawless , stellar and stunning , and comfortable to the ear and the mind

Sarah is an outstanding singer. She will always be my favourite!
What can you say, one of the best singers in the world. Jim
Mrs. Sarah Brightman is an awesome, wonderful wife, an her voice is the voice of an real angel; god bless her... Tom (Germany)
I would say that "she's an awesome woman". I don't speak German; I'm from Spain. But if you say wife you're speaking like if someone was married to her. Woman is the noun refering to the gender female of the humans.
I've searched for it... I see that in German it happens like in Spanish: wife and woman the same word and depending on the context it changes its meaning, but in English isn't like that.
Wife: Woman who is married.
Woman: Adult female who doesn't always have to be married.
I don't know if you wanted to say that, but I supposed so. Greetings from Spain :).
This is really beautiful song. I love this amazing, magical composition. ♥
Amazing! I discover only now this Singer! I'm feeling inside an enchanted forest. From Italy with love❤
Ascolta il duetto con Andrea Boccelli di con te partirò
This is already a very beautiful song whoever sings it and Sarah Brightman made it even more beautiful with her rendition.
I love this song so much. It gives me a feeling I can never put in words. 🥺
Although this is not the music of my society and this song of Scarbora belongs to my nation, but its music is amazing and charming. Music is no one's legacy. And no one has a monopoly on it. There is definitely magic in this music and song. There is a longing in it. There is an invaluable call for love in it.
Beautiful song and voice Sarah Brightman! 🎼❤️
Очень красивая женщина и прекрасная певица, невозможно наслушаться и насмотреться, , здоровья на 💯 лет!!!!
I didn't expect that people can create such amazing melodies like this one!! Awesome

Are you going to Scarborough Fair?
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
Remember me to one who lives there
He once was a true love of mine
Tell him to make me a cambric shirt
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
Without no seams nor needle work
Then he'll be a true love of mine
Have him wash it in yonder dry well
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
Where ne'er a drop of water e'er fell
And then he'll be a true love of mine
Tell him to find me an acre of land
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
Between salt water and the sea strands
Then he'll be a true love of mine
Tell him…
Das Lied ist so emotional und auch sehr schön und zum träumen einlädt und beautyful und die Sara brightman hat ein wunderschönes Kleid an

Are you going to Scarborough Fair?
Parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme
Remember me to one who lives there
She once was a true love of mine
Tell her to make me a cambric shirt (in the deep forest green)
Parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme
(Tracing of sparrow on snow-crested ground)
Without no seams nor needle work
(Bedclothes the child of the mountain)
Then she'll be a true love of mine
(Sleeps unaware of the clarion call)
Tell her to find me an acre of land
(A sprinkling of leaves)
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
(Washes the grave with silvery tears)
Between the salt water and the sea strands
(And polishes a gun)
Then she'll be a true love of mine
Tell her to reap it with a sickle of leather
(Blazing in scarlet battalions)
Parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme
(Generals order their soldiers to kill)
And gather it all in a bunch of heather
(A cause they've long ago forgotten)
Then she'll be a true love of mine
Are you going to Scarborough Fair?
Parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme
Remember me to one who lives there
She once was a true love of mine

When I first listened to this song my English was as bad as one could imagine, but “parsley sage rosemary and thyme” was just ingrained into my brain before I even knew what they meant
I've heard "Mary Anne Tide" xD
I thought it was "passing things, draws Mary and Tom", made no sense to me at that time.
