Occurances of the song

This song was also in one of the Highlander movies, though I can't recall which one at the moment. Shador5529 14:37, 6 September 2006 (UTC)Reply

Yeah, this song can be heard in Highlander 3 & Highlander 4 Golumas-Smygolas 17:17, 9 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

This song was also recorded by the British folk guitar hero Bert Jansch as "The Ornament Tree" as the title track on his 1990 album "The Ornament Tree". —Preceding unsigned comment added by Strictboy (talkcontribs) 17:44, 28 February 2010 (UTC)Reply

Scottish or Irish?

edit

The "Great Oak of Portmore" is stated to be near Portmore Lough, in Northern Ireland. So is the song a traditional Irish or Scottish song? Does it lament the destruction of Ireland's or Scotland's oak forests?
