I find the use of volume in this performance so powerful, the way the choir is allowed to almost overwhelm to lead vocals is perfect in displaying the power of the words and the modesty or strength with which they are sung. The moment when the choir takes the lead always gives me shivers, the words are sung strong and loud because he means them but can't sing them himself because it's too painful
I love many types of music me but this is something special, just everything about it is completely amazing, hard to think of anyone, choir, Sam Lee and everyone performing putting in and bringing so much emotion from a piece of music
If anybody asks why you like folk music so much - just show them this this video clip, absolutely brilliant
One of the most beautiful, incredible and moving live performances I've ever seen or heard. The combination of the song, Sam Lee and the choir is simply wonderful. I just can't stop watching it.

If my name was Molly, and someone sang to me like this, I'd fall at their feet!
The choir nailed it. Wow. What a performace...
beautiful version,sam lee and the roundhouse choir,what a combination,folk at its best
He is so gifted, talented and pure singer!
Such a beautiful voice and poignant tale, simply devine!
The trouble with words, is that sometimes they are not nearly enough. I can't really explain how this performance makes me feel. It's not often that I'm stunned by a piece of music but this is one. As I say, " beautiful", " sublime ", " breathtaking ", none of them comes anywhere near.

@@bythebooksgaming2721 Near enough :) We need a word like that.
To be there, and hear this performance was a real privilege. Thank you for posting
sam lee's music is healing, life-giving, inspiring.
THE most beautiful piece of art. I was not there but am just playing it over and over. Extraordinary.
Sam Lee is something special.
I doubt a longer waistcoat would improve on his singing.
I was lucky enough to be there that night... It gave me goosebumps then, and every time I've listened to it since. Just wonderful. He and the Unthanks were the highlights of the night.
I heard this song last week and ended up ending the life of my iphone 5S. It was worth it. I simply can't get this song out of my head. It's just so gawd damn beautiful.
This is a moment of utter beauty from the truly exceptional Sam Lee and Friends.
Sam Lee is Special
Ohhh how stunning was this I WAS THERE !!! it earned a well shed tear from me I can tell you
+Maggie Duffy me too maggie
I once was a ploughboy, but a soldier I'm now,
I courted lovely Molly, as I followed the plough;
I courted lovely Molly, at the age of sixteen,
But now I must leave her, for to serve James, my king. Chorus (after each verse): Oh Molly, lovely Molly, I delight in your charms,
And there's many's the night I have lay in your arms.
But if ever I return again, it will be in the Spring
Where the mavis and the turtle dove and the nightingale sing. You can go to the market, you can go to the fair;
You can go to the church on Sunday, and meet your love there.
But if anybody loved you as much as I do,
Then I won't stop your marriage, so farewell, adieu
Sam Lee made some changes:
I
I once was a ploughboy (1),
but a soldier I’m now,
I courted lovely Molly,
as I followed the plough;
I courted lovely Molly,
from the age of sixteen,
But now I must leave her,
and serve James, my king.
Chorus
Oh Molly, lovely Molly,
I delight in your charms,
there is many’s the long night
you hae laid in my arms.
But if ever I return again,
it will be in the Spring
Where the mavis and the turtle dove
and the nightingale sing.
II
You can go to the market,
you can go to the fair;
You can go to the church on Sunday,
and meet your new love there.
But if anybody loved you
as much as I do,
I won’t stop your marriage,
and farewell, adieu

Un tempo ero un bracciante agricolo
ma ora sono un soldato,
corteggiai la bella Molly
quando seguivo l'aratro,
corteggiai la bella Molly
dall'età di 16 anni
ma ora la devo lasciare
per servire Giacomo, il mio re
Coro
Oh Molly bella Molly
deliziato dal tuo fascino
per più di una lunga notte
sei stata tra le mie braccia,
ma se mai ritornerò ancora
sarà in Primavera
quando il tordo e la tortora
e l'usignolo cantano
II
Tu puoi andare mercato
e puoi andare alla fiera
puoi andare in chiesa la domenica
per incontrare un nuovo innamorato.
Ma se qualcuno ti amerà
tanto quanto io ti amo
non impedirò il tuo matrimonio
e addio, addio

His voice is absolutely devine! Every single time, in each of his interpretation, he hits me from inside 💠
I cry every time i hear this incredible song. I can't see the keyboard for the tears. Its just so haunting.

Absolutely Beautiful' i must have listened to this 10 times or more today !!
I just love, love, love this.
a great version of this old Scottish folk song..whether we call it "Once I was a Ploughboy" or "Lovely Molly" no one has done it better.. wish i was there to see the hall of fame award going to "The Lady", the great Sandy.. I have seen Sandy perform live twice and also got to see the 2015 winner Ewan MacColl perform once.
Beautiful song/singer and I am crying...
This is both haunting and beautiful
Stunning and beautiful and sad

Good God that's wonderful!
Such a perfect performance
Amazing!! so beautiful!!

encantamento puro!!!!
Beautiful
Beautiful!
Wonderful treatment of this traditional song
Originally collected by Hamish Henderson from Jock MacShannon while engaged in fieldwork in Kintyre. Hamish taught it to Jeannie Robertson who passed in on to her daughter Lizzie Higgins. It's Jeannie and Lizzie's magnificent recordings that popularised this lovely song, but Sam's performance comes from a different direction and is delicate and touching in its own right.
sublime
Amazing singing
So beautiful,...thank you :)
Thank you, Glenn! This is so beautiful song, really!!
