Excellent. Absolutely splendid! I know you are probably busy with life, but after hearing this song from Allison Krauss I have to ask- will you please if its possible interpret another one of her songs "You're just a country boy"? I would be most thankful.
I always like to take a little trip back in time when beginning a new YT friendship so that I may be able to gauge any improvement over time. If this is what I encounter on this cover, then what's in store for me latter? How can it possibly get any better than this? These questions will have to be answered be me. Such great harmonizing and depth of feeling! Your voices meld together to form a high quality of beautiful melodies, and the way you brought it all to an end, wow.
Very Nice !!! You sound so good! This song was written by Gordie Sampson from Cape Breton,Nova Scotia,Canada. The tune that the song is based on is an old scottish lament called "Neil Gows lament for the death of his second wife" Gordie also wrote the song Jesus take the wheel by Carrie Undewood and won a grammy award for that song.
Let's face it. Anna Johnson is the most talented young singer/songwriter I've ever come across. She makes you feel every note. And her sister adds the perfect balance of harmony. I just close my eyes and picture myself laying in a field of long warm grass looking up at the beautiful sky watching the clouds drift on merrily. . .
Before reading my comment, realize I am a professional musician. When I saw someone was covering this tune, I expected a butcher. Its an amazingly difficult tune, which would be hard to emulate. You do a phenomenal job capturing the song and adding your own interpretation. Keep up the great work. If you find yourself in Sweden or North Carolina... send me an e-mail, I'd love to play a few tunes with you... (ie. where i play).
@nlosborn It's always wonderful to hear encouraging comments from musicians - people who listen closely and critique! I so appreciate you taking the time to listen and enjoy the video, and further to tell me that you were pleased! I'm Swedish by descent, so I'll certainly go there someday! When I make it to North Carolina I'll hope to see you there, too!
That's so really beautiful,the blending of your voices is so sweet and pretty to listen to. I love the message too. Allison is fantastic. It's always reassuring to hear that it can always get better. I went through some of the worst sufferings and songs and performances like this are a joy and a help too. You two are such great singers and musicians. Beautiful violinf part by Julia and great fingericking by you Anna. This is very soothing and calming. You're both so adorable! :)) Hugs
Thanks for posting! I love this song too. I can tell you listen to Alison-- she can teach a listener how to reach high, pure notes-- I can hear it in yours! Such a pretty song-- I'm going to work on it. Thanks again! Keep playing! Plus harmonies too! Wonderful. Can bring a chill.
these girls came to my school they have a little sister named Clara Johnson and she s to shy she said she would never be able to be like her sisters.... clara is my friend and her sisters agreed to come play for our choir group... it was soo fun! they were amazing! so therefore i have met them personally!
This is a beautiful song as performed by Alison Krauss. I couldn't imagine it being performed any better that she does. Yet, somehow you did it. I can't believe how incredibly well you covered this song. Such soul yet very subtle and understated. Amazing job. You're both very talented.
I, too, have the dream of singing with Alison Krauss--She's wonderful. You ladies bring such Beauty to this song that I love to listen to it every day!! Fantastic!!
Wow! You've really got that special shimmer flashing from your voices. I do like this song, and I never thought someone could performance as better as Krauss does. That's talent!
Its 1873 , the Mountian full of snow and that cold Irish cowboy has a long ways to go, the plains they linger below and her loving beauty he'll hold. Faith moves mountians so I've been told..... Thanks *****
Thank you! I want so badly to meet her someday. I don't usually get all crazy over celebrities, but she's so amazing. Sounds crazy maybe, but I want to sing a duet with her before I die. :)
Violin's beautiful and girl on right sings beautiful, left girl harmonizes well. One tip, look like you enjoy it more. the girl on the right looks passionate which fits the song and it's good the girl on the left has a blank look, looks like she's there because her sister drug her along. Beautiful job. I don't mean for it to come out mean, just want to help for the future.
deeply beautiful....thank-you both!
