OWER DA HILLS TAE AMERICA. Shetland, Shetland Reel. From the island of Whalsay, Shetland. The tune appears in a list of traditional Shetland reels in the archives of the School of Scottish Studies (1981). There is a similarly-title reel from Whalsay called "Ower da Highland Hills," although whether there is a relationship between the two is unknown.
