Where does the English folk singers accent come from? It's an accent I've only heard in folk songs.

Jamie Cross

The best versions of this song:1. The Young Tradition (this one)-The most ancient and spooky and deep, maybe the most like how it was sung eons ago?2. Pentangle- More modern and polished but beautifually soothing.3. Enclave of the Elder Earth-Sorta a hybrid between 1 and 2. I can't find out anything about this group, does anyone know? Maybe a 'fake' group. The only way I can find the song is by googling their name together with 'Lyke Wake Dirge', and it's like they are featured on some weird joke compilation..

Rev Mary Miller

THIS ae nighte, this ae nighte,—Refrain: Every nighte and alle,Fire and fleet and candle-lighte,—Refrain: And Christe receive thy saule.When thou from hence away art pastTo Whinny-muir thou com'st at lastIf ever thou gavest hosen and shoon,Sit thee down and put them on;If hosen and shoon thou ne'er gav'st naneThe whinnes sall prick thee to the bare bane.From Whinny-muir when thou may'st pass,To Brig o' Dread thou com'st at last;From Brig o' Dread when thou may'st pass,To Purgatory fire thou com'st at last;If ever thou gavest meat or drink,The fire sall never make thee shrink;If meat or drink thou ne'er gav'st nane,The fire will burn thee to the bare bane;This ae nighte, this ae nighte,—Every nighte and alle,Fire and fleet and candle-lighte,—And Christe receive thy saule.Note: ae: one; hosen: stockings; shoon: shoes; whinnes: thorns; bane: bone; brig: bridge there ye go!

I was introduced to this song via New Sounds on New York radio many years ago - this song, this version will stay with a soul forever.

Rufus Corder

Why I never, Mr Vandemar...

J Gamble

Thank you, Hans Fried, for such a contribution to reviving this song for the generations.

Erik Schwab

I had the great good fortune to sing this song with Heather Wood of The Young Tradition at a pub sing in NYC in 2011. Unforgettable, really.

I had the good fortune to hear the YT in a reunion at Cecil Sharp house in 1970...good to see they're still remembered. Great stuff!

Graham Robinson

i heard this on John Peels show in 1967 or so. The harmonies made the hairs on my arms stand up and started a 20 year love affair with folk music. Lovely to hear it again. It still sounds so stark and elemental

Hans Fried

I got this from my stepmother Nan (nee Spence) who heard it from an old Scots lady, Peggy Richards. The tune she sang was probably printed in "Songs Of The North" by Robert Boulton in 1909 and unconsciously changed by me into a more folk like tune. I taught it to The Young Tradition claiming no copyright. Subsequently sung by Pentangle etc.

Hans Fried

These verses were originally chanted en route to the graveyard along the "Lyke Wake Walk". They tell of the journey of the soul to the afterlife. The whinnies are thorns with berries on them called whinberries, now known more commonly as bilberries or blueberries. The verses concerning the 'Brig O' Dread' are lost although Robert Graves had a go at writing them and not admitting to it.

Carol Cripps

@semiperilous I'm torn between delight and disgust - delight that someone got a bargain, and disgust that such brilliant music is being sold so cheaply. I was fortunate enough to have seen Peter Bellamy perform in Toronto in the 80's, and it was truly memorable. Too bad there aren't many singers of this calibre amonst the younger generation.

I won this L P in 1970 at a folk club in Birkenhead at a raffle (I was 16 then) back in 1970. It was a toss up between the Spinners and the Young Tradition so I chose the album I didn't Know. I still treasure it!!
