‘The World Turned Upside Down’ is a famous song from the interregnum, associated with the English Civil War and the succeeding period of Commonwealth rule. The era began in 1649 with the execution of King Charles I and lasted until the restoration of the monarchy in 1660. The song is a folk ballad that expresses the maddening ideas of the radical religious and groups that emerged during this time, particularly the puritans in power. The song's lyrics rightly criticise the government’s authoritarian policies about religious faith, political views and even celebrating holidays.
The song's popularity endured beyond the Interregnum era and has been passed down through generations. It has been recorded and performed by numerous artists over the years, often as a symbol of resistance and rebellion against oppressive authority.
Recording done by Maddy Prior.
