Looking for a seventies music title...
MerleOne:
I was thinking something more along the lines of Talitha Mackenzie's :-* Fair Shoulders - or Fionnaghuala if you speak Gaelic. (I don't!)
Even if it's not, Talitha is well worth a listen. :Thmbsup:

Not that one either, but nice to discover it. The one I was looking for was less "rythmy".
tomos:
I am wondering if the song could have been Irish: Gaudete by Steeleye Span from 1973, here from 2008 but almost a copy of their original version:-Curt (November 11, 2013, 01:22 PM)

another one I enjoyed Curt :up: - but definitely not Irish -
Latin lyrics, with a melody of unknown (possibly Skandinavian) origin -

*not* wanting to go off-topic :-[
Spoilerenjoyed that :up: - the version I knew growing up was from the Bothy Band - from the album with the wonderful name "Old Hag you have killed me" ;-)

-thanks a lot for this interesting information, Tom. Because I right away didn't understand what they were saying, I never bothered to actually listen to the lyrics.
app103:
If anybody here would know who that is, it probably would be app103. She's the only person I know who is even more into fringe and obscure musicians, instruments, and idioms than I am. ;D
How about it April? You're our resident whiz for this sort of thing. :)

Unfortunately, I can't help with this one. Not really an expert in foreign language (non-English) music.
Only one artist comes to mind when referring to songs in a made up language, and that would be Adiemus, but they didn't come into existence till the 90's...and they really couldn't be considered pop, any way. (new age)
