Thanks to YouTube I ve just listened again to Pete Seeger in 1963 and to tell you the truth I m not wholly convinced He seemed to think it was rwm as in cwm And a non native listener could go either way on that one either towards rim or towards rum We all agree that both The Byrds and Judy Collins got it equally wrong in the 1960s And 1960s UK folkie Mick Softley also got it wrong In 1970s John Denver went straight for rim even when performing in the UK As do the Oysterband as recently as last year Even Show of Hands go for a Seeger esque rwm Only Rhyl s Mike Peters of The Alarm seems to get it right There must be countless other recorded versions from both sides of the pond The leading rhyme of give me of course could easily sway a non Welsh singer A listener mght even think they were the sad bells of Rimini I wonder how many recordings have it right
