I've heard so many haunting versions of this ballad. In my view, this is the most powerful. Somehow "the lion shall be lord of all" gives the tale a strength that is missing in "down by the greenwood side-y-oh."

Allan Black

This version brought a tear to my eye. Brilliant song

Just saw him do the same. Was amazing. Can't find it anywhere. Sad face. Sad face /everywhere/.

James Jeffrey Paul

One of the greatest of all ballads.

I did the sound for him in Leeds last year and he performed this song a capella - put his guitar down and stood up. It was awesome. Came here looking to see if anyone had uploaded a similar version from anywhere.

One of the most epic songs I ever heard. Hope he gets more attention. He deserves.
