Apparently not Irish in origin as has been suggested but a Scottish song based on Pailsey poet R Tannahill's song The Braes of Balquidder.
This video of The Silencers performing Wild Mountain Thyme was directed by Steve price with Photography by John Brown in 1996 and shot around Lochranza on the Isle of Arran.
Ther are 28 videos of performances of Wild Mountain Thyme on the tube and much as I like such as The Corries I keep coming back to The Silencers.
I was inspired to add this after visiting http://roonthehoosemindthedresser.blogspot.com/
I think it's great and makes you home sick when you're at home.

Hello, and thanks for the credit/link. This song does make one homesick, of course I do have a reason as I've not been out your way for some time! :)
