Clare Bowditch (undeniably beautiful) , Bernard Fanning (wasted in rock and roll..well maybe not, but super at alt country) and the unique voice of Casey Chambers... pretty damn good
amazing,mind blowing.its so refreshing to know there are such great artists in Australia, and with such an in depth intellect,this sort of stuff really blows the hell out of all that pop crap.
I dedicated thhis version of this song to my best friend Johnny who passed away 2 months ago today.
I LOVE this song. But this particular version of it, with the absolutely beautiful harmonies, is just perfect. Clare Bowditch & Bernard Fanning should do more stuff together. As much as I dislike most of Kasey Chambers music(dont like country), she sounds beautiful in this, & completes the harmony.
Wow. Listening to this song makes me so proud to be Aussie. Fanning is a genius for coming up with this song. Chambers does a good job with her part, but I love Bowditch -- her voice is so pure and rich, and she is simply glowing here. A beautiful arrangement.
Had this as my wedding song awesome song by an awesome musician it puts things in perspective when i listen to it the glass is half full not half empty
Thanks...particulary because this should be a forum to make constructive comments about the video & its contents, not to diss performers based on the colour of their hair or make crude comments about who fathered their unborn child.
It's such a beautiful, heart stopping performance & sim0b is an obvious tool for not even acknowledging that.
I came across Bernard Fanning by chance looking for songs that I could play and sing. He is not main stream in the UK but he ought to be! I think that this performance is a terrific version, particularly with the contrasting voices and the violin! One of the most moving things I have seen on utube! I see from his website that he was recording in the UK recently. I hope he comes back and tours! (With the girls!!)
Wow! I love this version. The girls bring something extra to it in the best way possible. Even though Clare Bowditch looks almost set to give birth on stage -she smiles and almost laughs as if the baby gave a kick during the song - but still sounds terrific and looks stunningly beautiful and healthy.
I love this clip and song. Clare and Bernard are great...Kasey is alright, but compared to the lungs of Bernard and Clare I don't tihnk she really matches up. However, this song (version) is still awesome!!
This is just great!I'm from Scotland, but definitely have to say Australia has produced some amazing artists, such as this man himself, MISSY HIGGINS, Silverchair and Delta Goodrem.
And what a song this is, the female harmonies just make this perfect.
I adore this beautiful song. I'm getting married in April and hopefully i can convince my partner to have this as our wedding song. Simply beautifully touching....
I think that is the ARIAs performance that I've most enjoyed. Great song, with sublime 3 part harmony in that version! It's way harder to do than it looks, and Bernard, Clare and Kasey do a brilliant job. MacTruman is so right, performances like this are little pleasures that make life worth living!
This was an Awsome Track on The Album "Tea and Sympathy" This Version is even better, 3 Aussies doing what they do best. I really hope they release it as a Single one day!! I Cant get enouth of it.
On the "lip-injection" comment, I think it's just the ground-up lighting making a slight shadow above her lip, making it appear as if Clare has had lip-injections. :)
who cares about her lips? sick of shallow people. Its about the song, the feeling, the meaning behind it. how sad that people care about what someone's lips look like.
i think his voice sounds better here than on the CD, its more... gruff, i like it. ... does the chick in the middle have lip injections in her upper lip? isnt that bad? shes pregnant... beautiful voice though
Middle chick is clare bowditch and i doubt she has lip injections, just a bit of overzealously applied lipstick... she gave birth to two twins a couple months after this performance :)
I just love this song and this version is just amazing. I could listen to it over and over. Fantastic song....fantastic songwriter....fantastic performers!!! Thanks for putting it up!
This song gives me goose bumps every time I watch it. It is in my favourites and I play it often. I would love to have seen it live. These 3 artists together are amazing.
I think they should release it as a single with all 3 singing on it, makes it sound even better - this song is on the album - but only bernard sings it
amazing song.beautiful lyrics one of my favourite songs i listen to it when i feel sad
