From: Felipa This song was submitted in a discussion thread about Juneteenth, and no title is given As I walked out one morning, it was on the [8?]Teenth of June; The birds were singing in the trees, and all the flowers in bloom. On a primrose bank I lay me down beside a crystal stream. So deep, so deep I fell asleep and I began to dream. I dreamed I saw a clipper ship a-floating on the tide, With four and twenty sailor lads all for to be her guide. On the deck was one young lad, and he much alarmed me: 'Rise up, rise up your weary hearts, for the royal sons are free.'

Ligo is celebrated on the 23rd of June so there is also a Christian overlay (St John's eve). Near where I live in Ireland, some people still light bonfires on hilltops on St John's eve but the custom is not so strong as it used to be. Apparently Latvia is the place to be at summer solstice https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VXJpIBocNys The dancing towards the end of the video is very like Scandinavian dancing, and of course the Scandinavians also do mid-sommer festivals. I don't know what they are doing in pandemic times though. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-18614119 "Latvia's most important national holiday is arguably not Christmas but the summer solstice celebrations of Ligo (pronounced "leegwa") - a pagan tradition when Latvians celebrate the shortest night by staying up to greet the rising sun." |

22 Jun 21 - 06:08 AM (#4110983) Subject: RE: Any June Songs? From: GUEST,Ric Jerrom A West Riding version of “The Jug of Punch” starts: “‘Twas on the Twenty Third of June, as I was a weaving all at me loom, I saw a bird on an ivy bunch and the song she sang was “The Jug of Punch” Gladly fol the day Gladly fol the skiddly-iddly didle-dum, skiddly-iddly didle-dum, Skiddly-iddly idle-didle dum dum day” The Bates Brothers of Sheffield sang it in local folk clubs in the mid 60s. They were raucous, irreverent, funny and sometimes moving. Thank you Ric Jerrom,I looked on the Yorkshire Garland site https://www.yorkshirefolksong.net/song.cfm for this song and not finding it I asked Steve Gardham,of the Yorkshire Garland about it . Steve says I think the Irish would be a bit annoyed if we included this as a Yorkshire song. All of the oral versions come from Ireland although it is originally English c1845 featured in J B Buckstone's operetta Green Bushes. This version obviously comes from Irish oral tradition, probably the McPeakes version. I think it would be a stretch too far to claim it for Yorkshire. But thanks for your suggestion Ric . The Jug of Punch , of the Irish kind, is in the Index at the top of this thread . If anyone knows of recordings of the song as sung by The Bates Brothers of Sheffield it would be good to add it to the list of recordings |

24 Jul 21 - 06:14 PM (#4114300) Subject: One Morning in June Macaronic song From: Felipa note re the 5 June post re ONE MORNING IN JUNE; there are two versions of the song listed here. The song sung by Lasairfhiona Ní Chonnfhaola and Eithne Ní Chathain has Irish and English language phrases intertwined in a continuous narrative One morning in June agus mé ag dul ag spaisteoireacht? Casadh liom cailín ba ró-dheas a gnaoi,? She was so handsome gur thit mé i ngrá léithe? ... (one morning in June and I out walking about, I met the most beautiful girl, She was so handsome that I fell in love with her ..) see also Cartlanna Sheosaimh uí Éanaí/Joe Heaney, Joe Éinniú Paddy Tunney sings a monolingual version of the song, completely in English, and he uses a different melody. The linked mudcat post does give both versions of this song. I think in this case the bilingual version is actually the original, as is suggested by Fred McCormack in his post.

10 May 22 - 06:29 PM (#4141390) Subject: RE: Any June Songs? From: GUEST,henryp Mike Waterson's last song An August Bank Holiday Lark draws on those traditions. Remarkably rehearsals have been divided equally between work on the text and Conrad Nelson's work on the music and dancing. Barry Rutter writes, "My friend, the late great Mike Waterson, was one of the doyens of English folk. I met him when he was dying and I said, ‘Do you want to write me a song for 2014?'. He said, ‘I won't see 2014 – I'm dying.' I said, ‘I know you are, but I'd like you to write a Rushcart Song.' So he wrote it and recorded it with Eliza Carthy, Norma Waterson and Martin Carthy in their studio in Robin Hood's Bay. Conrad's taken that song and incorporated it into the play. |

04 Mar 23 - 06:18 PM (#4166893) Subject: RE: Any June Songs? From: GerryM Dana Lyons wrote and recorded JUNE IS A COMING, available at https://youtu.be/1ez1DOKchD0 Lots of months get mentioned in this song, set in Seattle. The first stanza goes, The Fall is the sunniest time of the year And the mountains are clear every day, But November it brings home the clouds And the rain once again, December is many warm nights by the fire Reading stories and sipping some beer, With the days growing longer, The end of the winter seems near. The 2nd stanza mentions March. We finally get to June in the 3rd stanza: June is a coming, the salmon are running And I've got to be on my way, I don't want to leave you my darling But there's so many more debts to pay, They say that the catch will be bigger this year And we'll all come home rich in the end, I don't want to leave you my darling, But the nets will be loaded by dawn, June is a coming and I must be rolling along. |
