Song of the Week – The Foggy, Foggy Dew
If I am counting correctly (no guarantee to that) this is my 20th post. That means I only have 150+ posts to go. Actually I am unlikely to ever reach that number as many of the songs I do are copyrighted and I cannot obtain permissions or afford to purchase open licenses. Still, I expect to be here for a while.
I think that many people who request this are confusing it with the more martial tune “The Foggy Dew.” I seldom hear much complaining about it. A touch of bawdy does that you know.
The best explanation I have heard is that the Foggy, Foggy Dew refers to virginity. I’m not sure it’s a really good analogy but it’ll do until a better story comes along.
