[carlaglavine]

Thank you for putting this on! This is my favorite Version, its awesome

[CaprForevr]

not sure why 15 dislikes what is to dislike? this is better than Marianne Faithful

[Barbpresby]

I'm a Lucy Jordan, but I've come out at the other end with help from people who cared.

[riverwinduk]

[Sforzando99]

Why so many dislikes?

[charlestonbaby]

beautifully haunting

[melfriend7]

is this about parents who loose their daughter.

[MariaAarhus]

Marianne Faithfull is the only real singer for this one.

[569021]

The singer is Lucy MacNeil singing with her brothers Stewart, Kyle & Sheumas They form the group The Barra MacNeils. Barra is a Scottish island, the ancestral home of clan MacNeil. I've watched them perform several times in my home town of Antigonish, Nova Scotia & the show is always perfect.

This is wonderful. Usually, the more I love a song, the more I hate cover versions of it, but this is nicely done. The understated quality of this version makes the song seem even more tragic ultimately.

[rastanswibbo]

There must be a lot of Lucy Jordans out there.

Sad fact of life.

[Mad4Mirren]

I was in my 20s when this version was released. now I'M 37.

[benefity]

@Mad4Mirren At the age of 37, have you ever ridden through Paris in a sports car, with the warm wind in your hair? (Well, I hope you have.)

[BonesJuly]

[SerpentGoddess]

I don't particularly care for her voice singing this song. HOWEVER, she has a lovely voice and it is great to hear someone give Marianne a bit of attention, aside from comic geniuses French and Saunders. Well done.
