Me as well, its quite cheery!
Do you know any other versions or recordings of this song?
This tune is soo soo familier.
voice reminds me of some english civil war songs
@@BunglebottomInc no i am talking about something else. So in 1700s when brits came to india they brought their music with them, so there was fusion of both traditions resulting in formation of a music which was neither indian or western but uniquely both. Wanna hear?
@@ShivanshThakur-sh8ub sure, but i was just also saying it reminds me of stuff
This and the British Grenadiers song are both really good
I don't know why but this song sounds so nostalgic to me.
@@Lucas-q2l5e it's the old style and the cheery yet sad almost feel of war

It is from Waterloo, the scene just had a lower brightness so it looked a bit out of place.
