17 Sep 01 - 10:20 AM (#552217) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Where will ye gang? anyone know wods From: Malcolm Douglas A song by Ewan MacColl: THE TERROR TIME DT file, with tune; also in the Forum under its other -original, I think- title, WINTER SONG with tune in miditext and abc, plus a link to a midi. |
17 Sep 01 - 10:22 AM (#552221) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Where will ye gang? anyone know wods From: IanC Any more words? Sounds a bit like "Sir James the Rose" or the Finnish ballad "The Bloody Son" from Swinburne's Poems and Ballads.

Will you gang love and leave me now? Will you forsake your ane love true, for a bonnie lass that you never knew?" If this is it, let me know. It's an Andy M. Stewart song. (I think) I have the words around here somewhere. Z

I have only heard Old Blind Dogs rendition of it and it appears to be only 3 chords D,C, & G. Can anyone confirm this? Thanks 64coupe wconnel1@nycap.rr.com |
15 Oct 08 - 03:52 AM (#2466009) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: The Terror Times From: Jim Carroll Can't imagine it being sung to an accompaniment - it's chilling just with the unaccompanied voice. 'Winds of Change' on the other hand.....!! Jim Carroll |
15 Oct 08 - 05:40 AM (#2466074) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: The Terror Times From: GRex Didn't MacColl write this as "Winter Song"? Jean Redpath was the first singer I heard sing it as Terror Time. GRex |
15 Oct 08 - 05:53 AM (#2466084) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: The Terror Times From: Fred McCormick It was never called Winter Song. MacColl called it The Terror Time and it is from the Radio Ballad, The Travelling People. In fact it's from the section where they talk about Travellers braving the winter, naturally. Just before it starts, one of the Scots Travellers says "ahh that's the Terror Time." |
17 Dec 09 - 10:24 PM (#2790918) Subject: Lyr Req: The Hunger time From: Susan-Marie I half-remember a great song about surviving the winter that I thought was called "The Hunger Time" and sung by a Scot. The heather is gone And the bracken has died Streams they run cold and clear And the small birds will be goin' And its then that you'll be knowin' That the hunger time is here Anyone know who wrote it and where I can find the rest of it? |
17 Dec 09 - 10:44 PM (#2790929) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: The Hunger time From: Effsee The song I think you're looking for is Ewan MacColl's "The Terror Time"...it's in the DT, just put terror time in the search box. |
17 Dec 09 - 10:59 PM (#2790932) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: The Hunger time From: Joe Offer Twenty minutes for a hard question - I'm duly impressed, Effsee. I can't find an Ewan MacColl recording right off, but I found a very powerful recording by Jean Redpath. -Joe- |
17 Dec 09 - 11:05 PM (#2790933) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: The Hunger time/The Terror Time (MacColl) From: Susan-Marie Ah, Terror, not Hunger. That explains why I couldn't find it. Thanks so much guys. |
