Just beautiful. I used to live in the heart of this. The Yorkshire Dales. The National Park ranges into Cumbria and Lancashire, and I was right on the border. To those who find it odd that these images are used to support a Jacobite Lament, sung in a rural Yorkshire accent; think again. The Jacobites were not only Scottish Highlanders, but much support for their doomed cause came from Northern England. In the rising of 1745 a Manchester Regiment was formed to support the Jacobite cause. Head south from this part of the Dales for 60 miles, and you hit Manchester. The Jacobites lost their cause, partly due to the ineptitude of Bonnie Prince Charlie in 1845-46. And to the low level of support from the continental Europe. The Watersons do a fine acapella version of this song. Another different Jacobite song, also called the "White Cockade", was often performed by the excellent Corries. The White Cockade was the white cloth rosette worn on their hats, bonnets or jackets to symbolise the cause in 1945. Cockades of various colours were often used by irregular military forces in Europe and North America in the 18 and 19 centuries, to distinguish friend from foe.
This ballad has everything.....a beautiful story that paints a sad sole full love affair. And the beautiful voice of Kate Rusty is the true artist of this masterpiece
This video is so beautiful! What a joy it is to be able to listen to the truly lovely voice of Kate Rusby while viewing the picturesque landscape of Yorkshire!
Voice and landscape in perfect harmony. Kate's 'little girl' voice along with her Yorkshire accent, casts a spell of authenticity in this video that no one else can match.
The Jacobite song has totally different lyrics. This is an English song which only shares the title. There are versions of the blue/white/green cockade from northern England, Norfolk and Cornwall.

We here in Michigan thank the miners from Cornwall who immigrated to the Upper Peninsula of Michigan in the 1800's to work the copper and silver mines, and for introducing Michigan to the Cornish pasty. Michigan has hundreds of pasty shops throughout the Upper and Lower Peninsulas.
Difficult to interpret, which side? I think he joined the Jacobites and was killed , hence she wishes Bonnie Prince Charlie had been sunk by a Hollander ship? Maybe I have got it wrong, What do you think?

Typical ignorant Yank comment. This is an English song of Yorkshire, and 'Jacobite' isn't a blood type ffs, it's just the Latin form of James (via Jacobus) for the supporters of James VII of Scots and II of England who was a catholic, like 'Williamite' was for supporters of William of Orange, like the Scottish Covenanters would have been supporters of. And yes obviously you're an ethnic Yank USian native of the USA state of American heritage.

Beautiful rendition, probably the best. But any historian would be shaking his head in disbelief at the random pictures that accompany the song, what does the explosion of the L'Orient in Aboukir Bay in 1798 have to do with a Jacobean cockade?
The white cockade headgear was a symbol the Scottish Royalists, and later the international catholic Jacobite supporters later adopted. It helped to distinguish them from their foes as both sides tended to wear blue bonnets as headgear which was too historically standard in Scotland.
2022.... and the story in this song could be going on right now, if you're the sweetheart of some poor Russian bloke being sent to feed the meat grinder of Putin's blind ambition.
a beautiful voice and the most beautiful countryside!

I wasnt expecting Kate to be singing.... it took my breath away as she always does.
Kate Rusby has the perfect voice for this song - evocative and takes you gently to the 18th C. A delight to hear - thank you for sharing.
I love Yorkshire and i miss it every day that I'm not there.
A beautiful voice singing a beautiful song over a beautiful landscape.
There's seriously no words at all to describe how great this song is 💕
She has a beautiful voice.
This ballad has everything.....a beautiful story that paints a sad sole full love affair. And the beautiful voice of Kate Rusty is the true artist of this masterpiece
Rusby not Rusty!

This video is so beautiful! What a joy it is to be able to listen to the truly lovely voice of Kate Rusby while viewing the picturesque landscape of Yorkshire!
Kate at her very best. Thanks for the posting.
Thanks from me too. I'm from South Yorks put expat in flat Denmark. This reminds me where I come from.

brilliant and beautiful and heart wrenching
Well. I last listened to this song. In Holmfirth. in 1965.. Wood cottage YHA..
Perfect
with some 'summer wine'?
@almond1915 Can't think of another voice more suiting to go with the beautiful Yorkshire landscape. Cheers!
I live in Wet Yorkshire. No finer place.
Great! I didn't think this song could be done delicately, but this version makes more sense than the usual macho rendering. Nice!
Wow 👍
Cheers!
Awesome
@periannpo Indeed it is such a beautiful countryside and beautiful voice. I'm glad you enjoyed the video. :D

Dead right
He picked a white rose on landing.
how can ashley jackson paint such bleak landscapes after looking at this vid?
yorkshire at it`s best and kates voice to cap it all eh?!
Does anybody else think that Kate should've been born a couple a decades from now or just me?
I mean with her Yorkshire accent,great voice and songs it seems like she should've been alive in a whole different century
it seems like she's from a different time long ago to me

Nicely done - but the acappella version by The Watersons is much more powerful.
When we want a more powerful version we will listen to it - perhaps!
it
Cheers!
