I've listened to Chavela Vargas singing the song, i've listened to Lila Downs, to some others... For the moment, this one is the best for me. There are no breakdown, only a description of that pain the love can bring. And this way it is even more terrifying.
I think Joan could understand very well what she was singing about, just check her biography, the Dylan affair and more...
Joan es una gran defensora de las causas justas y gran artista la admiro desde siempre. Lo mismo ahora con el gran Alejandro Aldonza quien también canta este clásico mexicano y nunca se olvida de las luchas sociales y justas de nuestros pueblos latinoamericanos. Artistas comprometidos no abundan, la maravilla se compromete solo con su bolsillo.
I love when she sing`s in spanish she is a good singer and fore those 3 persons that ddon`t like this song they really don`t have a good taste of music.
Excelente canción que sintetiza la tragedia del amar. Digna es de estar a la altura de las tragedias griegas. Digna de ser supremas manifestaciones de la creacion humana del sufrir el amor.
before my birth everyone had told my mother that her voice was like joan's so she tried to sing this. and it was true... no i'm used to hear her so i'm not moved or something... but this video reminded me a lot. now I realiised it....
i like Joan Baez but not here ..not singing this song .I understand that there's a version for everyone to love ..but she totally ruined this great song.imo no one's ever been able to sing it better than Chavela Vargas .
Just makes me wanna burst into song! My spanish teacher sang this today and it left me speechless. Es una cancion muy bonita, tiene una voz magnífica :)
Hasta hoy se que Joan Baez habla Español. Esta es una de mis canciones Mexicanas favoritas! Antes de oir a Joan la interpretacion de Raphael era mi favorita pero ya cambio!
I love this song. My Spanish teacher blasted this on full on her stereo and it was so haunting we all stopped screwing around and just listened. It's very melancholy, I've never heard anyone sing this with such emotion.
Amee la cancion de la lloronaa con Joan Baez desde los 10 años, ahora tengo 16 y les aseguro quee esta version con ella es mi favoritaa... maraviillosoo el video :D

Nothing to be sorry about, we all have our favorite singers and versions.
Chavela Vargas is the ultimate interpreter of this song, in my book.

dicen que no tengo duelo, Llorona,
porque no me ven llorar:
hay muertos que no hacen ruido, Llorona,
y es más grande su penar.

Joan's father was born in Puebla, Mexico. This is a Mexican song. She sings it beautifully.

To everyone saying that she's a white girl and that her accent is bad, look it up, her father is Mexican.

LA LLORONA
(Mexican folksong related to Cihuacòatl, an ancient earth goddess)
frenchiecocorico1 2 years ago 2
Todos me dicen el negro, Llorona,
Negro pero cariñoso;
Yo soy como el chile verde, Llorona,
Picante pero sabroso,
Tous mappellent le noir, Llorona,
Noir mais affectueux,
Je suis comme le pigment vert, Llorona,
Piquant mais savoureux.
frenchiecocorico1 2 years ago 3
Ay ! De mì, Llorona,
Llorona de ayer y hoy,
Ayer maravilla fuì, Llorona,
Y ahora ni sombra soy
Hélas pour moi ! Llorona,
Llorona dhier et daujourdhui,
Je fus merveilleux hier, Llorona,
Et maintenant je suis si sombre
frenchiecocorico1 2 years ago
Dicen que no tengo duelo, Llorona,
Porque no me ven llorar ;
Hay muertos que no hacen ruido, Llorona,
Y es màs grande su penar.
Ils disent que je ne prends pas le deuil, Llorona,
Parce quils ne me voient pas pleurer,
Il y a des morts qui ne font pas de bruit, Llorona,
Et la souffrance est plus grande.
frenchiecocorico1 2 years ago 25
Ay ! De mì, Llorona,
Llorona de azùl céleste,
Y aunque la vida me cueste, Llorona,
No dejaré de quererto.
Hélas pour moi ! Llorona,
Llorona dun bleu céleste,
Et bien que la vie me coûte, Llorona,
Je narrêterai pas de taimer.
