This to me is like a Monarchist love ballad. Recounting the suffering of young men (and their sweethearts) who went to serve their King.

Beautiful song, with an awesome voice. Random pictures of 100 years of British military history. The white cockade should not be confused with a plume, it was the badge of Charles Edward Stewart and worn by his Jacobite supporters in the disastrous 1745 rebellion.
The white cockade worn in headgear was a symbol for Scottish Royalists, and later Jacobites. It helped distignuish them from their foes as both sides tended to wear blue bonnets as headgear.
Jacobite gang
Many different militaries wore cockades in the headdress as well as hackles.
There were also a few Northern English Jacobite rebels in both the 1715 and the 1745.
@@alistairthompson8311 First of all, they were Scottish, and second of all, they were a well organized military force, and the risings only failed through a series of coincidences.

Such a beautiful song... I found this channel yesterday, and I'm quite honestly Sir, addicted. Keep up the good work!
Wow beatiful voice makes my eyes water
Beautiful lyrics and melody. My best from France.
A lovely song and sweetly sung. I first encountered it fifty years ago as sung by the Watersons, and this does it equal justice--the eternal lament of the lass whose lad has taken the King's shilling, one war after another.
Just one small correction to the lyrics : first verse, third line. "A flowing ball" makes no sense in the context. It should be, "a flowing bowl"--an overflowing bowl of ale, that is.
Hi James. I am a fan of the early Watersons (and the present Carthy Watersons). Do you know which LP White Cockade was on?

Your videos are great, congratulations! I'm your fan from Brazil!
Avé Imperio.

Fuck off this is an English song.
This is lovely.
I just love this song Kare..such beautiful lyrics and melody..
Beautiful voice and song, pity all the paintings are misplaced. This song tells the story of a young man who joins the Jacobite rising of 1745. She wishes a Hollander ship had sunk the French frigate that brought Charles Edward Stewart, and disaster to the highlands of Scotland and her sweetheart who wore the white cockade at Culloden.
No it doesn't tell the story of the Jacobite rebellion. The cockade mentioned in different versions of the song was variously green, blue, red and sometimes white. The songs were collected in various (basically all) parts of England. So, the paintings are not misplaced, the words of the song come out of late eighteenth century England and the fact that the version that became popular in the 20th century folk revival happened to mention a white cockade does not make it about the Jacobites.
@@andrewwigglesworth3030She wishes the Hollanders would sink the soldier who enlisted her lover (by getting him drunk and tricking him into accepting the King's Shilling). For me that sets the song during one of the Anglo-Dutch Wars - 1652-54, 1665-67, 1672-74 or 1780-84.
@@sirknight1399 It could be, and it's pretty clear that the song refers to the Anglo-Dutch wars, but folk songs aren't history documentaries and the people who sang them weren't historians.
Folk songs mix up dates and events all the time, but they often get over the sense of what it was like to live that life or to be left at home grieving and give some info on what the ordinary people who sang these songs thought about (in this case) wars.
@@andrewwigglesworth3030 Wrong

Bring back English folk
The people or the music?
Both man, both
I am german and have listened to both german and english folk songs and studied both nations history, it's incredible how similar we are, it's a damn pity and crime we fought and hated eachother for such a long time.
Oh my God, you again...
Lovely song =) Thanks for posting it
At beginning the guy is influenced and catched by the money and performances rather than his Love. Money and pride are nothing compared to Love.
To be honest, as much as I'd have loved to fight for Charlie back then, I'd not leave my girl behind if I didn't get some money from fighting and send it to her back home
where do i find those great paintings?
The Hanoverian cockade was black, it was the Jacobite that was white.
Correct, wrong pictures of random redcoats
It's not a song about the Jacobites, whatever the colour of the cockade, which was variously blue, green white or red in different versions of the song.
Holland was at war with France 1744 to 1748.sj
Holland was at war with France in 1745.she wished that a hollander ship would sink the French frigate that took bonnie prince Charlie to scotlandcausingthe death of her sweetheart.
Why the white cockade? That was Jacobite/French before the Revolution. The British Army cockade was black.
correct
It was a Stuart emblem before the risings took place, it has just been made famous by the Jacobite. The Stuarts were monarchs of both England and Scotland, and as such it would have seen use across both sides of the border
The cockade in the song was variously blue, green, red or white in different versions of the song collected across England. This was a late 18th century/early 19th century song that came in many versions, with a "white cockade" version becoming popular in the folk revival of the 1950s and 60s. It's best not to try to tell history literally from these type of songs.
Something about Italy?
lady stop singing , he's now non binary gender who calls itself ingrid
