Thread Name: a folk song with lots of incarnations
Subject: RE: a folk song with lots of incarnations
Sumer is Icumen in (surely more traditional even than Barbra Allen) also has a Benjamin Britten arrangement, and has been recorded by the Magdalen College choir, Richard Thompson, The Futureheads, Glenn Close (!), the mice in Bagpuss, and of course the classic version at the end of The Wicker Man.
