Was für ein tolles Lied, wunderbar interpretiert. Seine Popularität und Aktualität beweisen die nach wie vor zahlreichen Interpretationen dieses alten Volkslied. Joels ist eine der wunderschönsten.
Wie wunderbar... Es hat so was emotionales und friedliches. Es tut gut dir zuzuhören, das Interview das alles erklärt macht alles noch verständlicher und wirkt so aufrichtig. Vielen Dank Joel🤗

"parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme" sounds like a very typical chorus for a folk song (a real folk song). It is very normal for folk songs to have a chorus that has nothing to do with the verse lyrics. Without a chorus like that it would sound unusual to the ears of someone who is participating in that traditional culture. It's one of the more ancient aspects of folk music which got lost over time in most places.

Perhaps in my speaking voice, once in a while:-)! However, I don’t think my singing voice has changed. Perhaps you’re noticing a slight Minnesota mixed with New York accent!
At one point he says "all these things are ja impossible" and I thought "interesting, the German use of ja to show that something is obvious made it into this German's English."
Hi David, Sorry not to reply sooner. That's one of the wonderful things about our voices! We can modulate them and use them to express various emotions in various ranges! But yes, I am by birth, opened up by training, a Basso Profundo!
The ballad we know as Scarborough Faire can be dated back, as it was by the great Folk-song collector, Francis Child, to a Scottish Ballad called the Elfin Knight (first appearing around 1610, tho it’s surely older). It’s a riddle song and has many variants which are still sung all over the English-speaking world. It was the subject of my recording, “The Elfin Knight”.
Not what i was expecting at all utterly beautiful

Thank you! In the Info above, I wrote "To skip the intro and go directly to the song: 4:05". Your time gets you to the song immediately!
so selten war Petersilie nicht, denn im Mittelalter waren viele Gerichte damit gefärbt
Danke für Ihre Kommentare!

Interesting. He's American, but seems to have developed a hint of a German accent from living in Germany

the `t` is notably german sounding....love your version...and what a gorgeous low voice @@ensemblephoenixmunich2210
Very beautiful arrangement!! Would it be possible to have the music sheets for this?
I do have a printed arrangement. Please contact me via Email: info@ensemble-phoenix.com
And thank you! This ballad and it’s variations is the subject of my CD, The Elfin Knight (try Spotify, RUclips, etc!)
So, he's a Basso Profundo, right?

Does anyone know the Scarborough a fair where a man asks her questions and she answers like what is deep love is deep

De su carácter religioso no hay duda. Prefiero la versión de los padres Simon y Garfunkel. Amen
