MAJOR DISCOVERY!
I didn't know Steeleye Span had teamed up with Terry Pratchett to create music around the story Wintersmith!!

THREAD: Only two songs solely in #Latin have reached the #Top20 of the British singles chart. The first was also the only Top20 Latin #acapella song: #SteeleyeSpan's "#Gaudete", which reached no 14 in 1973. h/t @withaveeay
It's a 16th century #ChristmasCarol (published 1581), which wouid have suited this Sunday, which was Gaudete (Rejoice) Sunday. It's catchy.
There are also a few other recent recordings: >>

(As a child) I used to think that this was something to do with France, but it's actually a Scots song about some Germans. LOL

Amongst my YouTube suggestions today was
FAUN -- Walpurgisnacht.
https://youtu.be/nLgM1QJ3S_I?si=Jg_rm4jF4LrP15KiThis German neopagan group reminded me strongly of the older British group Steeleye Span.
Although I'm sure some people love this MV, I can also imagine it evoking a strongly negative reaction.

What are you all listening to today? I’ve discovered Steeleye Span Live At The Bottom Line, 1974 which I don’t think I’d heard before. Really good, classic stuff. Helps the work to go by.

Found a neat little article that provides a background for the song which is apparently "an 18th Century song from the reportoire of the Copper family". It also includes a more sombre performance by Jon Boden and the Remnant Kings. And points to some other versions. Happily checking those out too. #folksong #SteeleyeSpan

Listening to Steeleye Span a lot lately. Lots of old faves but currently stuck on one i hadn't listened to as much: Hard Times of Old England. Such a strangely festive tune considering the lyrics. And seems to kinda fit into the turning of the year. #folksong #SteeleyeSpan

Elf Call - Steeleye Span
#music #SteeleyeSpan #elf #elves
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fu4sYNxXof4
“Elves are wonderful. They provoke wonder.
Elves are marvellous. They cause marvels.
Elves are fantastic. They create fantasies.
Elves are glamorous. They project glamour.
Elves are enchanting. They weave enchantment.
Elves are terrific. They beget terror.
The thing about words is that meanings can twist just like a snake, and if you want to find snakes look for them behind words that have changed their meaning.
No one ever said elves are nice.
Elves are bad.”
― Terry Pratchett, Lords and Ladies -

New #review today: "Toronto musician Pete Johnston is primarily known as a bassist with a long running group called See Through (in Trio and Quartet variations). In #StrangerStill, he takes up the guitar. While there is a folk-oriented base to many of the tunes which can be likened to #SteeleyeSpan, #MellowCandle, and others, the music has an angular rhythmic quality showing influences from 20th Century #ChamberMusic." #ExposeOnline #AcidFolk http://expose.org/index.php/articles/display/stranger-still-the-songs-which-are-2.html
