Cuckoo's Nest

I suspect traditional English folk (rock) is not going to attract 1000's of views on this forum, but what the hey! 😁

 

A cover of two songs (traditional folk songs themselves) by the same name by two separate folk rock outfits. The first 2/3's is a cover of Morris On's (functionally The Albion Band) song Cuckoo's Nest and the last 1/3 is Cuckoo's Nest by Steeleye Span - which was the last 1/3 of a song they did called Drinking Down the Moon! Confused?!😀 My vocal is pretty strained at the start but is better (when hidden) when the instruments come in. I added some lyrics in to Steeleye Spans song, namely:

 

The King is dead

The King is dead

His crown is on the ground

The King is dead

The King is dead

His body can't be found

Perhaps he walk amongst us

No tomb to home his rest

Forever ever hunting down the Cuckoo's Nest

 

Hi the Cuckoo

Ho the Cuckoo

Hi the Cuckoo's Nest

Hi the Cuckoo

Ho the Cuckoo

Hi the Cuckoo's Nest

Sirens on the rock put many men to tortured test

Tempted by their cravings of the Cuckoo's Nest
