Subject: Tune Add: BACHGEN BACH O DINCAR
Sian in West Wales sent me this tune. The lyrics are here. He says it's his first effort at an ABC tune, but I'm not sure I believe that, because it seems perfect.
My problem is, I KNOW this tune, and it's really bugging me. Can anybody tell me what English-language song is sung to this tune? I think I know (but I'm not telling). I can't be sure, because our MIDI for the song isn't working. So, name that tune.
