Various accounts of the local culture survive. As a boy during the Second World War, Morrison was evacuated from his home in Glasgow to the Isle of Bute. There, he met a piano teacher from St Kilda. Before he died, he wrote a letter to thank those who helped him record the songs, saying he was happy "that these few tunes from the long-forgotten isles can be preserved and given a future". It’s just a beguiling story. However, a number of witnesses reported hearing islanders singing love songs, work songs and funeral dirges.These eight songs, played on an old care home piano, are now being released on an album, The Lost Songs of St Kilda, alongside arrangements of the tunes by Scottish composers Sir James Macmillan, Craig Armstrong, Rebecca Dale, Christopher Duncan and Francis Macdonald (who is also the drummer of indie band Teenage Fanclub).

At times in its history, the island had supported a population of up to 200 people, but during the 19th century, emigration and staggeringly high infant mortality due to tetanus meant that by 1930, that number was down to 36.
When a volunteer in an Edinburgh care home heard an elderly man playing folk music on the piano, it started a journey that would lead to the 'lost songs' of St Kilda being performed on the abandoned island for the first time in nearly a century.He suggests that the songs might have their origins in Gaelic psalm singing, which has a "very strange, very ethereal" sound. Original lyrics of St Kilda song by Fable Singers. "But St Kilda is also a melancholy place.
