Malcolm Douglas Lyr Req: Drowned Lovers / Clyde Water (Kate Rusby) (35) RE: Lyr Req: Drowned Lovers / Clyde Water (Kate Rusby) 21 Jan 09


'Clyde's Water' seems never to have been found in tradition outside Scotland.

I suppose there may be recorded arrangements by a few North American revival performers. If you want to sing it yourself and prefer to avoid having to grapple with unfamiliar Scottish words, transcriptions of the collated and anglicized texts used by Martin Carthy and Nic Jones can be seen at http://www.informatik.uni-hamburg.de/~zierke/nic.jones/songs/thedrownedlovers.html
