All the old videos are set to private for now. I don't want to take the risk of bringing them back until the copyright strike ends which is around the end of June. If the channel gets deleted all my transcriptions and song notes will be gone. I didn't back them up before, I wrote them into the video descriptions as I uploaded new songs, but I'll be doing it now. When the strike runs out I'll bring back all the field recordings. I hope RUclips has a way of allowing me to select all videos that contain no copyright issues at once. Setting them all back to public by hand while avoiding the copyrighted videos is too much work, I won't be able to do that. As for a website or another way of sharing the music with likeminded people? I have no idea honestly, I need to think a bit about what else I can do to make all music and info available again without years of work. RUclips isn't the place for this kind of project, I should've known better. Maybe I can also turn to the mudcat cafe forum for questions and suggestions regarding this situation.
@@hanshazlitt4535 It's an idea. The only problem is file size. All the music takes up a lot of space. I will find a way to share everything again in the future, including song transcriptions and additional notes I wrote.
Commenting to say thanks for sharing the songs and collections here while also providing the lyrics and information in the descriptions! Your channel has brought me much great joy. Very lovely cover and well sung :)
I'm so happy you find it useful. It started as a little just for fun idea and grew into an extensive archive of field recordings of folk songs. You're welcome, thank you :) I haven't uploaded anything new in a while but I try to read the comments and correct mistakes in transcriptions when I notice them. There's still more work I'd like to do, more field recordings I'd like to share but currently life got in the way a bit. We'll see what happens.
Wow Holy shit Foxy You sing so beautifully It's Been a minute But now well worth the wait So sad the rest is gone away I cherished the child's You taught us about But now the candles been blown out Long live The Child's Roud Tonight
Oh, thank you so much. I'm happy you like it. Now Jack Orion / Glenkindie is an interesting ballad. I heard two Scottish tunes for it and they were different from Jack Orion. Mrs. Mary Thain of Banff in Aberdeenshire sang a fragment of Glenkindie for Dr. James M. Carpenter in the 1930s. She sang: "Have ye lost yer gloves, Glenkindie? Or have ye lost yer knife, this night? I'll wager all my lands an' rent That Jock my man's been here the night." And Ewan MacColl recorded the ballad with a similar tune on "Blood and Roses Vol. 3" (1982). But I love A.L. Lloyd's modernized set of words and the tune he used for it. Now Blow the Candle Out doesn't quite fit the same words, but I can hear similarities too. I heard the Jack Orion tune used for a Scottish song called "Highland Harry" before. And Andy Stewart used it for a funny song called "Donald, Where's Your Troosers?".
If you are interested in comparing, here is a recording of Highland Harry by the Ian Campbell Folk Group: ruclips.net/video/gj66er-Y7rU/видео.html And here is Andy Stewart singing Donald Wheres Your Troosers: ruclips.net/video/4yw0bLHTOb0/видео.html Both are very much like Jack Orion I think.
This one isn't a Child ballad. It's an old broadside, first printed in Thomas d'Urfey's "Wit and Mirth: or, Pills to Purge Melancholy" from 1720, as far as I know.

Could you host the media on another site and post a link somewhere?

Wow
Holy shit Foxy
You sing so beautifully

But now well worth the wait
So sad the rest is gone away
I cherished the child's
You taught us about
But now the candles been blown out
Long live
The Child's Roud
Tonight
Beautiful singing. There are elements of “Jack Orion” in it.

Lovely song. Is it in Child's book?
