AboutGisele Expertise I can answer about the main characters of the series, the rules of immortality (how it works), the Watchers, episodes, the sound track, Highlander books. I can`t answer questions about swords (although I do know which is Methos` sword...) and cars and barges...
Question There's a scottish song(sung in english not gaelic) which is sung in the episode "homeland" of the highlander tv series. What is the song title and what is the group playing the song? Also, any page including the whole lyrics would be also useful. Thanks!
Answer BONNY PORTMORE, a public domain traditional Celtic folk song, sang by Laura Creamer.
Oh bonny Portmore, I am sorry to see
Such a woeful destruction of your ornament tree
For it stood on your shore for many's the long day
Till the long boats from Antrim came to float it away
Oh bonny Portmore, you shine where you stand
And the more I think on you the more I think long
If I had you now as I had once before
*I would cling to the memory of our love even more (Creamer's version)
*All the Lords in Old England would not purchase Portmore (McKennitt's)
All the Birds in the forest they bitterly weep
Saying "where will we shelter or where will we sleep?"
For the Oak and the Ash, they are all cutten down
And the walls of bonny Portmore are all down to the ground
Oh, bonny Portmore, you shine where you stand
And the more I think on you the more I think long
If I had you now as I had once before
I would cling to the memory of our love even more
