Love Songs in English/Irish/Scottish* Folk Music

We fell in love but you were secretly married to someone else the whole time, so thanks for that

We fell in love but then you married someone else, so now I must drown myself for sorrow

We fell in love but my father didn’t approve, so we’re going to drown ourselves now

We fell in love but my mother wouldn’t let you sleep over, so we’re going to drown ourselves now

We fell in love but you went off to war for many years, and when you came back you tried to commit identity fraud

We fell in love but you went off to war and married someone else, so I murdered you and now I’ve received a promotion at work

We fell in love but you went off to war, and now you have literally zero limbs

We fell in love but I’m moving away and you’re not invited

*sorry, they all kind of blend together after a while, and they’re all fairly similar except the English ones are missing the “fuck the British” sentiment of course

anyone: yeah i love barbry ellen but i hate that barbry gets punished for cruelty in the end- it really feels like she did nothing wrong and william was a jerk

me, showing up in their door like a jehovah’s witness: do you have a moment to talk about child 295 “the brown girl”?

Samhain!

Without morris dancing the Wheel of the Year won’t turn, so the morris-wolves are dancing under the moon of White Samhain.

My most dear Happy Kelpie morris-team;)))
