- Here is one of my favorite early songs played on one of our 18 1/2 inch Mira Concert Grand console music boxes. From 1865, this is Henry Clay Work's "Marching Through Georgia" dedicated to General William T. Sherman's march to the sea in November and December 1864. It is said that General Sherman intensely disliked the song but it was extremely popular with the Union Civil War veterans and to this day remains one of the most popular of Civil War songs. Always one of my favorite recordings to play on early Edison cylinder and Victor records I was pleased when I first listened to this fine arrangement on the Mira. Thanks for stopping in for a visit and I hope that you enjoy the video.
When war songs about burning a state to the ground sound like lullabies
they should sound like this
Jefferson Davis: “IS THIS THE BURNING OF 64?”
Use this to rock General Sherman to sleep
@Pferd Schild I am sure he would fall asleep anyway
“Okay little Sherman… time for beddie-bye… just dream about Atlanta and things will be alright”
@@FlyingTooFast Awww
He's hated this song. And most likely would've put on fire those who'd try to lullaby him with it.

Bring the good old bugle, boys, we'll sing another song!
Sing it with a spirit that will start the world along!
Sing it as we used to sing it, fifty thousand strong;
While we were marching through Georgia!
Hurrah! Hurrah! We bring the jubilee!
Hurrah! Hurrah! The flag that makes you free!
So we sang the chorus from Atlanta to the sea,
While we were marching through Georgia!
There were many Union men who wept with joyful tears
When they saw the honored flag they had not seen for years!
Hardly could they be restrained from breaking forth in cheers;
While we were marching through Georgia!
Hurrah! Hurrah! We bring the jubilee!
Hurrah! Hurrah! The flag that makes you free!
So we sang the chorus from Atlanta to the sea,
While we were marching through Georgia!
Wow! This tune brought a tear to my eyes. My dad used to play guitar and sing this song for square dancing. What a great memory you gave me. Thanks!!
This channel is simply the best for memorising the names of historic tunes and the music boxes are simply mind blowing. To think that a few officers may have heard this tune on a similar machine must add another experience to Civil war experiences.
Also to note, Sherman absolutely hated this song due to because he never felt any triumph over any fallen enemy and it would follow him wherever he would go.
You’re being a bit editorial with it. We know Sherman disliked the song, whether that’s because of some sense of weird misplaced morality or because hearing the same goddamn song every time you go somewhere becomes grating is a point of contention.
Honestly Sherman had no qualms or guilt about what he did - having spent the entire war getting his sense of reconciliation chipped away gradually by an Southern populace that did not harbor the unionist sympathies first believed, and ultimately the march to the sea and the Carolinas shortened the war and saved lives, I doubt he hated the song for that reason though he did mellow out with age (unless you happen to be American Indian).
He knew the job wasn't done, and the traitors are still trying to destroy the republic.
So this version would be more like baby shark to him that a nice lullaby version of marching through Georgia?
@@TU-mf2ut only a traitor if you lose
@@fuzzydunlop7928 Tell that to King Charles who has to listen to "God save the King" everywhere he goes and for the 70 years prior when the tune was played by his mother.
Thanks, Rocky. Harlan and Stanley were the perfect choice for recording the early vocal version of this song weren't they? Thanks, as always, for your gracious comments!
Wish both Harlan and Stanley recordings were on spotify. They’re ace, but Ernie Ford’s is a fine substitute.
We have this song in Thai version.
If you know the video can you link it
Yes please
懐かしい雰囲気抜群!
Love these machines! However, i have unable too find one that I could afford! Oh well, at least i have my Mandolinia and phonographs.
Love this song!
How to go to sleep knowing Georgia is a battleground state once more.
A damn fine lullaby it is since Georgia's redeemed herself

Best learn history before besmerching your name calling good men traitors ...
@@fjb4932 to which good men do you refer? The ones who owned slaves, or the ones who betrayed their country and killed their countrymen over it? Or the ones who did both?
@@fjb4932 still mad about losing?
@@fjb4932 The south fought for one of the worst causes humanity has ever fought for, that being slavery based on race and which you could be born into. Slavery in antiquity wasn't even like that, not that it was good. Even if there were good men in their ranks they were all traitors.
@@fjb4932 but they were?
Hello, Hello, we are the Billy Boys.......
God Bless Billy Sherman.
General Sherman hated this song.

Even if quartz clocks of Citizen, Seiko and Rhythm electronically imitate the same music-box it can't beat the real music-boxes.
