"Bonny Portmore" is a traditional Celtic folk song which details the centuries of Ireland's old oak forests, specifically The Great Oak of Portmore, being leveled for military and shipbuilding purposes. Loreena McKennitt performed this song on her 1991 album, The Visit, and it was subsequently used in the film Highlander III: The Final Dimension (1994). A new version of the song was recorded by Laura Creamer for the 1995 episode Homeland of Highlander: The Series. Laura Creamer's version, which has slightly different lyrics, was re-used in the episodes Dramatic Licence (1996), Armageddon (1997) and the series' final episode Not To Be (1997). In 2000 the song was used in the film Highlander: Endgame, this time recorded by Jennifer McNeil.
