This live concert was held in Osaka then Mary sang for us in French/English/French. Buy Mary's early recordings CD from sain, former Camblian label. The French &Welish version is included and it's really fantastic.

A voice of an angel....

[griffcats]

Ive heard her singing this before, and it stuck in my mind for many years. It is such a joy to hear it again. Certainly, this is too short a time to listen to such a sweet voice that should last until the last drop of wine in the glass.

[robertlaberge]

Plaisir d'amour ne dure qu'un moment,

chagrin d'amour dure toute la vie.

[cuzinkevin]

1.46 is just not long enough. Mary has it all beauty and the voice of an angel.

Thanks for posting

At the Mary Hopkin show, after a good Spanish guitarist play alone, Mary appeared singing this fantastic her favorite song. This is her introduction herself.

Bye now and see you!

Tommy

[Sarahfreckle]

Beautiful. Thanks for posting. But some of those unflattering photos should have been edited out.

[Kuramochi0214]

Hi,

I HAVE edited Mary's photos. All are the best edited ones.

The record jacket for this version,

the introducing photo (with an apple) of the Expo '70 that delivered to me when booking,

her come-home interview at London Heathrow from this Osaka tour. Mary is looking into a Japanese-made kaleidoscope, her own souvenir,...Mary can see real memories of her Expo'70 concerts and her short holidays with her dad, mum and a elder sister there. They are for me really treasure photos. All are lovely.

[pontedupre009]

Beautiful interpretation !!!!

[Kuramochi0214]

Thank you very much, pontedupre009.

I have visited Paris several times. Paris is very beautiful city!

All the best.

Tommy

[christophe76382]

very sweet , beautiful !!! 5 stars !

[Kuramochi0214]

Welcome!

Thanks for giving this 5stars.

By the way, in this month / March2009, Seven Stars (Japanese-made cigarettes brand name) are sold in special limited packages cerebrating its 40th anniversary. Really 40 years!? The DAYS is only a year ago !?

Thank you.

Tommy

[pauls2407]

Wow thanks for this, what a treasure. She sings this in Welsh on "Early Recordings" when she was about 16 and its great to see that her voice is just as good. Thanks

[Kuramochi0214]

Welcome!

Mary appeared with this song.

Next song, if my memory is correct, was "Both Side Now".

Tommy

[mrethrift]

I have the EP of her Welsh songs. I found it in a dustbin with a lot of other records from that label, so i bought a bunch of them. It was Welsh music fest at my house, for a day! I already knew who she was and had her first two records. I hope to get more, esp this one and early recordings.

[Kuramochi0214]

This is not available in authorized LP nor CD until today.

Mary with Kimono, japanese formal dress, and her shots in Kyoto are printed on a short LP titled Pleasure d'Amour. But Mary sings in Welsh only. It often appears at auctions (Yahoo or eBay) here, while the min. bid 100-500 LOL.

Tommy

[mrethrift]

I wonder what the Cambrian EP is worth. It's her first recording effort.

[Kuramochi0214]

YES OF CAUSE!

You are right.

I think this is her selection for the opening the concert "Mary Hopkin Show" at Osaka Expo 1970, the days of Apple.

Mary really wishes introducing herself with her 1st recorded songs at Camblian.

Could you answer to you, mrethriff ?

All the best,

Tommy

[Kuramochi0214]

I missed the currency!

100 to 500 Euro must be the first bid price according to the conditions.

[Marievil68]

That was so beautiful... really loved this..!!

Thank you, Tommy, so much for sending

this lovely performance..!! =) 5*****

[Kuramochi0214]

Welcome!

Thank you for your lovely comment.

This is the Mary's loved song before her début at Apple.

She appeared with this live at Osaka Expo held midsummer in 1970.

Tommy

[stairwaytoheaven321]

I have this on a CD of Welsh Singers I bought on a market stall in Wales years ago and this is the first time I have seen or heard it anywhere else.

I think it is a better version than either the Joan Baez or Nana Mouskouri (the original) versions.

Thanks for the posting

[Kuramochi0214]

Thanks for your leaving a comment.

I think so too.

This is HER loved cover song before the Apple days.

All the best,

Tommy

[ZIEBELL5]

Lovely - Thanks :o)

[Kuramochi0214]

Thank you for your lovely comment ;D

[werty2000]

"Those were the days my friend" is my favorid.

[Kuramochi0214]

Oh yes thanks.

Tommy

[Kuramochi0214]

Thanks for your nice commenting.

The photo of Mary with an apple is from the programme for the concerts (delivered when ticketing)...then maybe taken in UK.

I have to correct my information below.

Have a nice new week.

Sincerely,

Tomoya

[bestiaccia]

Beautiful! :-)

[Kuramochi0214]

Thank you!

The top related video for mine (Jennyluvver's posting) is sung in Welsh and is very beautiful!!!

[bestiaccia]

Thanks, it's wonderful!

[Kuramochi0214]

Welcome!

In my mind, it very much surprised me that her Welsh, the original recording post!

Have a nice new week to everyone!

From the Far East Japan,

Tommy

[librat4u2]

What a lovely song and nice photos too!

[Kuramochi0214]

Thank you very much!

The kaleidoscope Mary is looking into is a Japanese made one for her own suvenir. After that photo, all photos were taken in Japan.

[CptSato]

Hello, Tommy

This song is one of my remembrance.

Anyone will be fascinated of Mary Hopkin, if listening to this song.

I appreciates a wonderful posting. CapSato

[Kuramochi0214]

Hellow, CptSato.

Mary likes this and sang many times before she contracted with the Apple Ltd.

She sang at the concert in the Osaka Expo in French/English/French. Her Welsh version is available now since just one day before my post, Jennyluvver uploaded Welsh version, that is shown the first in the related video colum in the right! Very beautiful.

[richpat]

Lovely

[Kuramochi0214]

I am very much surprised to see the first related video for this, because Jennyluwer post this song in Welsh just yesterday!!

[Kuramochi0214]
