Subject: Same tune as the song, Dainty Davy. From: GUEST,David Murphy Date: 26 Sep 04 - 02:45 PM I remember hearing a song long ago to the same aire as Dainty Dave. It was more of a marching-type song and indeed , I think it had the words like "marching lines" or, "See the marching lines" somewhere in it. Every so often I go over stuff I'd written down long ago in scrapy notebooks and this came up. So, there's not much to give a clue, but if I can find it anywhere, it's probably here. Many thanks, everyone. |
Subject: RE: Same tune as the song, Dainty Davy. From: John MacKenzie Date: 26 Sep 04 - 03:01 PM Well there's 'Rantin' Rovin' Robin', and the parody on Burns, 'There was a Lad was Born in Kyle', both of which go to the same tune, butI don't think either contain words like you quote. Giok |

Subject: RE: Same tune as the song, Dainty Davy. From: Snuffy Date: 26 Sep 04 - 06:50 PM Only thing I can think of with something like "See the marching lines" is Roddy McCorley, but I don't think taht's the one you're looking for |
Subject: RE: Same tune as the song, Dainty Davy. From: Joybell Date: 26 Sep 04 - 07:40 PM The two tunes - Dainty Davy and Roddy McCorley do have some similarities. Just a few though. Snuffy, you may be on to something. Joy |
Subject: RE: Same tune as the song, Dainty Davy. From: MartinRyan Date: 27 Sep 04 - 06:45 AM It's used for "The Carmagnoles" - which is very much a march setting. Don't think there's any lines of marching men, though. Regards |
Subject: RE: Same tune as the song, Dainty Davy. From: SINSULL Date: 27 Sep 04 - 07:37 PM refresh I apologize. Just needed some diversion. |
Subject: RE: Same tune as the song, Dainty Davy. From: MartinRyan Date: 28 Sep 04 - 07:23 AM What The Carmagnoles does have is a reference to "Behold the great Batavian line"! Regards |
Subject: RE: Same tune as the song, Dainty Davy. From: Snuffy Date: 28 Sep 04 - 09:24 AM There are also lines of marching men in The Foggy Dew |
