aldus | What is a Geordie? (44) | RE: What is a Geordie? | 20 Apr 98 |
It relates to the period just after the Battle of Culloden, but is really a much older song. There are many versions but mostly they fall into two categories, The song of lost Love and the poltical version, in both cases Geordie is hanged.I have never heard of it being in any way connected to the hundred years war..but all things are possible. It has traditionally been regarded as an anti-english song from Scotland. |
