Thread Name: Origins: Skye Boat Song
Subject: RE: Skye Boat Song
Some debate over whether it's "thunder CLOUDS rend the air" or "thunder CLAPS". Lots of people seem to have learned the latter version, which would perhaps seem more logical, but I have a copy of "Songs of the North", edited by Harold Boulton himself, in which it appears as "thunder CLOUDS". Any views? Malcolm ? Ewan?
