This version of this song is GORGEOUS!!!! My choir only sung the other version (which is pretty I guess but this one's like 'whoa' ya know) and I didn't know this one existed until now. :P Beautiful!!!
my Nanna used to sing this to me when I was little, apparently her mother used to sing it to her aswel...ahh..brings back memmories. Years since I last heard it now my Nanna's passed away.
This a different version than I remember, but you did a really nice job, and I think this is a really pleasant version too. (I'm expecting my first grandchild in April, but am a CAT lover too, so this works for me in BOTH areas!) Thanks
thanks, i hardly ever come on here, but i loved the song and arrangement...the video is slow cause i only had a few stills...my first fumbling attempt ...lol
I know a completely different melody for these words, for this song...
A strangely haunting melody that does not resolve melodically until the very last line ("while my pretty one sleeps") and actually ends on the tonic ("doh" or root ) note.
Thank you so much! I've trawled the Internet far and wide looking for that version, the one I recall from childhood (and sung by my now-departed sister). I've always known it to be a lullaby - that version is the very one, and I thank you again!!!
That was the most beutiful song i have ever heard. I am in tears, only one vid on youtube of this. a new part of me was born. thanks for bringing this to youtube, the only place I have acess to any song.
I commented on this a few months ago...I used to have another lullaby by this group...What's their name again? I MUST get more of their music! ETHEREAL hugs, Rhonda (Welschick on Tabblo)
This is Bill Douglas with the Ars Nova Singers (Boulder, Colorado). ALL of their collaborations are just as beautiful. The choir appears on MOST of Bill's CDs (especially "Deep Peace"), so please purchase them and support him! Thanks!
Ohhhhhhh this is my MUSIC YES!!! BEAUTIFUL BRAVO!!! MY FAVORITE LULLABY~~~Take me away Riley...in my dreams you are there~~~~ Thank you so much Deb... from Rhonda (Welshchick) I am logged in under my son's funny psuedo name....HUGS

Beautiful. I'm so glad to have come across this version! It reminds me of a nostalgic cartoon of it being sung, but I can't find it anywhere. :(
This is still gorgeous. Thank you for posting it!
