squeezeldy Folklore: Kissing Walking Corpses (42) RE: Folklore: Kissing Walking Corpses 13 Jan 05


In the original poem "The Unquiet Grave," the dead beloved is a woman. The gender is usually adjusted to fit the singer...

In the song "Anachie Gordon," he "kissed her cold lips 'til his heart has turned to stone, and he died in the chamber his love, she lies in."

Nothing like a couple of cheerful ghost songs for a gloomy winter day. I feel much better now!!
