Inch by Inch
sung by Peggy Seeger
Peggy describes this song as a bit "corny," and I'd probably agree, although it's ALSO one of those lovely and and gentle songs that I remember singing growing up. It's one of those cozy and nostalgic songs that I couldn't help but share :)
Wild Mountain Thyme
Whitby Folk Week @ Home
"Wild Mountain Thyme" (AKA "Will you Go, Lassie Go") is an Irish folk song from the mid-20th century that is fairly recognizable at this point!
It's one of those "ear worm" type songs...for me at least. Here's a beautiful rendition from Whitby Folk Week in August.

Whitby Folk Week @ Home
