I've just been listening to the Doves latest album and there's a track on it about Winter hill.
Does any of you music bofins out there know o any other songs about our beloved fells?

Manchester rambler by Ewan Macoll:
I've been over Snowdon
I've camped up by Crowden
I've been by the Wain Stones as well
I've sunbathed on Kinder
Been burnt to cinder
And many more things I can tell
I've seen the white hare in the gully
And the curlew fly high overhead
And sooner than part from the mountains
I think I would rather be dead.
sic etc

Runnin up that Hill by Kate Bush
"I am not a number! I am a free man!"
Old Pendle -it takes a while for the lyrics to kick in.
