Derry girls brought me here , great song .
Me too. Love this song and her voice
same!!!
Same!
Me too
Same here. Horrible tv show. But Cara's voice is pure gold.
i heard a bit of this song on the show "derry girls" and it has become one of my favorite songs of all time, it´s so nostalgic
oh my good thats how I heard of this song for the first time!
@@nouralhuda4011 Me too! In fact reading these has reminded me thats where I first heard it, I'd forgotten lol
OMGEE same, immediately came from the scene where James says hell wait for erin
Glad he got his electric razor 🥲
I really struggle to understand with the thick accents on the show - what was the deal with the razor and why was he asking about it at the seance?
@@ilurvemv i’m fairly certain he gave it do his wife prior to her passing and she died before she told him where she last left it thus him believing it to be permanently missing. but the “totally real seance” he was led to the spot and got it from the box
@@unxprienced9548 okay, thanks
Yessss..! 🙏🏼
Derry Girls is such a hilarious show, and sometimes I’m still laughing well into the credits… but those episodes with the quiet, emotional ending scenes… oooof! Those really get to me 🥲❤️
@@CheshireCesare I couldn’t agree more! They did such a good job mixing sad history with humor. Great show
Derry girls final season slapped in terms of the soundtrack......damn!
Derry Girls is so brilliant..
Erin and James 4eva!!
Black is the colour of my true love's hair
Her lips are like a rose so fair
She's got the sweetest face and the gentlest hands
I love the ground whereon she stands
I love my love and well she knows
I love the ground whereon she goes
And how I wish the day would come
When she and I can be as one
Black is the colour of my true love's hair
Her lips are like a rose so fair
She's got the sweetest face and the gentlest hands
I love the ground whereon she stands
Oh, whereon she stands
Oh, whereon she stands
Oh, whereon she stands
Oh, whereon she stands
Oh, whereon she stands
I go to the clyde and mourn and weep
Satisfied I never will sleep
I'll write her a letter, just a few short lines
And suffer death ten thousand times
Black is the colour of my true love's hair
Her lips are like a rose so fair
She's got the sweetest face and the gentlest hands
I love the ground whereon she stands
I love ground whereon she stands
Love the ground
Thank you!!
Derry Girls S03E04 sent me here.
I heard this song in my teenage years, it was one of those rare songs that instilled me with a little bit more of will to live.
Such a beautiful voice!! Why has she not gotten more exposure in the USA??
I LOVE THIS VERSION OF THIS SONG WITH CARA DILLLON !!!!!!
So beautiful arranged - and the voice - my goodness - so many artists where interpretating this song already, but this is definitly my favorit version !!!

One of my favourite songs of all time 🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮
That’s the flag of the Ivory Coast
her voice is so sweet.
@nakedBison69 TY :)
I have seen Cara Dillon twice so when I heard her singing on S3 Ep4 of the derry girls I came on here to hear the whole song again.
A beautifully interpreted traditional folk song.
Derry Girls 🇮🇪🤘🏽💚

I don't think I can overstate how important stumbling upon this song as a heart broken queer teen was.
This is absolutely beautiful..... So having this at our wedding what a fantastic voice
Derry Girls brought me to this page, but I know the song from an Above & Beyond track that uses the same lyric. Both excellent tracks.
So beautiful
Omg! Lovvvvvveee it!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Thank You ...
I first heard this song at Scarborough faire in waxahachie Texas.
I love it.
Derry Girls!
This is one of my favorite songs I think. I love how unapologetically sapphic it is 💗
it’s not a sapphic song it was written by christy moore who’s a man this is a cover, love a good sapphic song though love girl in red this just isn’t one though
@@Claire-fs2dn yes it is

Derry girls brought me here
I was the girl in the black cap, cheese and grain. Log d ya kid from the first time, the way you sing Irish folk is truly unbelievable. God bless you.xxxx
To be fair, this is an American folk song derived from a Scottish folk song, but she does sing it well.
Thanks for uploading this. It's been blocked here in her native country
PendulumFTW why?
@@JON100JLOMAN Because women are not supposed to love themselves and other women.

Lyrics: Black is the colour of my true love's hair
Her lips are like a rose so fair
She's got the sweetest face and the gentlest hands
I love the ground whereon she stands
I love my love and well she knows
I love the ground whereon she goes
And how I whish the day would come
When she and I can be as one
Black is the colour of my true love's hair
Her lips are like a rose so fair
She's got the sweetest face and the gentlest hands
I love the ground whereon she stands
I go to the Clyde and mourn and weep
Satisfied I never will sleep
I 'll write her a letter, just a few short lines
And suffer death ten thousand times
Black is the colour of my true love's hair
Her lips are like a rose so fair
She's got the sweetest face and the gentlest hands
I love the ground whereon she stands

And I love the ground whereon she stands.
I love my love and well she knows
I love the ground whereon she goes
I wish the day it soon would come
When she and I could be as one
I go to the Clyde and I mourn and weep
For satisfied I ne’er can be
I write her a letter just a few short lines
And suffer death a thousand times
Black is the colour of my true love’s hair.
Her lips are like some roses fair
She had the sweetest smile and the gentlest hands
And I love the ground whereon she stands.
It's one of the most delicate, angelic voices I've ever heard. Absolutely poignant and overwhelming for sensitive souls.
She remembers me at ISGAARD - "Fold Your Hands and Pray" ruclips.net/video/OARlkH0dGvs/видео.html touching similar your heard.

Much different version than the traditional folk song.
All hail Shockwave
Black was the colour of my true loves hair. I thanked the universe a billion times over for bringing her to me, she thanked the universe a trillion times for creating me
Original 1099 brssrr😢r
It’s kinda like a pop song, no?
floppeur89 idiot
paddyjimbo you alright there gramps? Should I get off your lawn too? It’s not a knock on the song, just seems to have more pop flavor than regular folk songs.
No, listen to Christy moores version. Its an old Scottish ballad
what the actual fuck are you on about
I'M A DERRY GIRL TOO!!!
Voll doof
Absolutely murdered it.
Christy moores version is much much better
