  • I got chills.....

  • Definitively one of the most beautiful cover interpretations I´ve heard

    The spaniard Camilo Sesto sings it in Spanish as well, but I loved your interpretation.

  • WHEN IN TROUBLE AND SCARED, GO TO CHURCH.

  • Amazing

  • Amaizing

  • a favourite song by a favourite person - wonderful x

  • I can't think of an adequet superlative for this

  • @cornishhh why not '5****' ???

  • @bgbelgorock2 Or even 6!

  • Holly, We had a firefighter that was killed in a serious accident in front of his home returning from being on duty at the 6's. (His parents lived next door,) He leaves a wife and two 3 1/2 year old twin boys. We are sadley burdened by his loss of life for his Wife/Children-Mom & Dad/ Family & Friends and the fire fighters of IFD. I posted your song on facebook with words from the tears of my heart. Thank you for your passion of music. IFD Firefighter-Richard

  • @TruckieOz

    Hi Richard,

    I am so sorry to hear of the very sad loss of Duane. It brought tears to my eyes thinking of his poor wife and those little boys, as well as the rest of his friends and family of course.

    I am Holly's mum. She is away from home studying music at university, so I am afraid doesn't have much time for checking her YT comments at the moment. She hopes that once she has settled in a bit more she will be able to reply more often.

    Take care~our prayers are with you all x

  • Holly, This firefighter is heartfully grateful for your version of this song. I will post it to facebook for the Family/Friends and Firefighters of Duane Clark (35)-an IFD Firefighter that was killed in an accident while waiting to turn into his driveway near Brownsburg. At his home he leaves behind his wife and twin 3 1/2 year old boys. His parents lived next door to hime also. Please pray for the family and Firefighters! Thank you from my heart-Richard/Indianapolis

  • BLESSINGS FROM AMERICA.

  • Holly, I almost never comment, but you're out of this world! A chance discovery...A TV ad w/the song "Coming Home" (Major Tom)...Led me to Youtube, then to Nena/99 Luftballoons...which led to YOU!! I am shocked over how good you are. Stunned. Thank you for your being, your beauty and esp your efforts to share your talent w/the world. Please do the Neil Young (actually Buffalo Springfield) song "Expecting to Fly". It's a lost gem that is begging for a cover like only you could do. ~tracedog27/USA

  • I'm just fascinated by your voice. It is very mild and at the same time has such full of colour and beautiful sound.

    For me, your version is better than the original, very fresh, old song is born anew.

  • wow, you are really amazing!! i truly like your voice. you are great on those low notes and holding out phases very well. I love how you don't overdue the sound. It was wonderful to listen to.

  • wow! Absolutely beautiful...

  • I was wondering if it was possible to do it better than Simon and Garfunkel. Well, YOU DID !!

  • I really like your version it's really soft but really emotional

    it reminds me a bit of eva cassidy

    if you have time you can check out my version it sounds a bit more raw :D

  • Great version! U put so much feeling in it...gives one a gooseflesh! Nice!

  • My favorite youtube singer doing one of the greatest songs ever. What could be nicer than that?

  • The kindness in your face will lead one to believe this is how Jesus would look if he were singing to us. You had me crying, looking for his face in the clouds. In case no one has ever given your Our Lady's Special Mothers Blessing, (as granted in Mejagorie), I give it to you now.

    Thank you for what you do. When the Lord said, "Share with the world what I have given to you, " you did just that. Thanks again. I'm going to go look at all of your other videos!

  • Hello spill :)

I requested this song in March 08 and it was posted in June 08... coincidence? of course... but I'm gonna pretend that you covered this one just for me if you don't mind. Thanks =) Just play along - it's good for my ego.

  • Excellent work girl!

  • Many thanks kchan :-)

    Hollyxx

  • Wow! Stunning. Such control you have. I love that you don't belt or shriek like 99% of singers would doing the same songs. You maintain a rich and intimate and perfect tone throughout. Have you been taking singing lessons all your life or is this just a gift? I really hope you become professional but if you do, don't let them change you, don't let them package you, the best thing about your performances is that they are sincere, and sincerity is a hard thing to fake, lol.

  • Hello again (I can't add your name as I usually do, or it wont let me post the comment :-))- very strange!

    Thankyou very much for another wonderful comment - you are very kind.

    I started singing, just at home, when I was about 8 or 9 (see jessedora channel-my mum :-)

    I do have lessons from time to time now but I don't sing the songs I put on YT. I would love to sing all the time but I don't have time at the moment - too much studying! :-)

    Thankyou again
