  • I'm a sucker for Celtic music... I just got the new IRISH ROVERS - Home in Ireland DVD and popped it in. It's incredible! Rush right out to Amazon and buy it! tinyurl.com/Rov...
    This song just grabbed my heart and wouldn't let go. It reminded me of my parents who have been together for almost 60 years. As soon as I heard it, I thought of my dad singing newfie and celtic songs to me as a child. It's incredible to have a lifelong love and to stay together as the years fall away.
    Thanks for your example Mother & Daddy! This one's for you...

    This wonderful song is meant for the ages. A tune so beautifully expressing the love of a man for his wife.

    I adore this song. I love the tune and the words, and I especially love it because Maggie was the name of my maternal grandmother, may she rest in peace.

    I cried over this song when I heard it in my twenties and I am crying still at nearly 70. the words are as deeply felt as when 20. my soul relates to these words of life progressing.

    This song reminds me of my Primary School days in Dublin back in 1967. Out teacher at that time ( a Mr Fitzgerald from Sneem in Co Kerry) often sang this song to us in class. I think it' a particularly beautiful song that mixed with sadness, joy and nostalgia. I hope you like the song too.

    This is my favourite memory of my late father - he was a big fan of these amazing guys and sadly passed away in 2013 at the age of 65. Listening to this song brings back memories of road trips where at least one Foster & Allen song (and usually Maggie) was played!

      It may have been written in Canada... maybe by a person if Irish, Scots, Welsh or British ancestry. But make no mistake, it has become deeply ingrained in the hearts of the people of Scotland, Britain and Ireland.
      Music is a “heart thing...” and is adopted by the people who resonate with it most. It become “theirs” in a way that transcends country, nationals and geography.

    Do you happened to have a song with: Magdi?
    Same pronunciation, but: instead of dubble (2) gg-es, the second turns downside up! As your many musical theatre songs.
    Maggie stands for: Margaret
    While:
    Magdi stands for Magdalena, and other versions in different ethnicities.

      @gaconnochie 7 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      You are absolutely right the song is from the New World not our side of the pond. It has been popular in Scotland for so long that many here think it is Scottish. It was on Ord's 1930 book on Bothy Ballads and has been an integral part of the Selkirk Common Riding for many decades. Likewise the Irish tenor John Maccormack recorded it in the 1920s so it has been around and popular for a long time in both Scotland and Ireland so many people presume it is from our islands..
