I appreciate that Alexander chose to record this piece, because I was very curious what it would sound like with a more masculine voice, but after all is said and done I still like Heather's rendition better. The way Heather sang this song makes it one that I will remember for all time.
I am a Heather and Alec fan and I've been trying to find this song for months; I've always loved it, but I knew it needed to be sung by a male voice, and here it is. I have some of Heather's songs that YouTube doesn't yet; I'll see about fixing that when I get the chance. Thanks for posting this!
@IrishTactical The Old Man From The Barrow. Life's Flame. Also Flesh Against The Thorn, but I don't think that one is on YouTube, so... hm, Midsummer. I think Alec would do a pretty cool rendition of that one. And for complete balance, watch Faerie Queen, which is a really cool piece that was directly surpassed by Alec.
Everyone seems to like March of Cambreadth more than I do, including the writer who introduced me to Alexander in the first place, so you can give that a try as well.
ok you want a good comparison,... Heather singing "Faerie Queen" then afterwards listen to "He of the Sidhe" by Alexander ,.... they are 2 parts of the story,..hers saving her beloved,..his after seeing her beat the Faerie Queen he tries for his freedom.
@griffinist1 Heather wasn't Alex's mother. I agree that Alex performs this song better, though. It's from a male's perspective, and he's better suited to it. @IrishTactical That's the 'official' story Heather gave when she became Alex.

At 2:25 I can't help but dance down the street. I've done it, gotten funny looks but don't care whatsoever.

This is the first studio song I've heard with Alec. I can forgive his voice for not being Heather's now.

@griffinist1 I meant to say that I like Heather better in general, but I prefer Alex's rendition of this song.

@mashmusic11235 Because I have not listened (yet) to any of Heather's song, I gotta say that Alex's voice is amazing!

Alexander James Adams is awesome!!! This is the first time I've been able to hear his voice on a quality recording.
I prefer Heather, like (it seems like) most fans, but his voice is still great.

@mashmusic11235 He sure does have an amazing voice. But who's Heather?

@IrishTactical
Heather Alexander. She was Alex up until 2007. Look up either name on Wikipedia, or go to heatherlands . com.

@griffinist1 thanks for the info, but I think that Alexander is Heather (one in the same)

@IrishTactical If you believe the backstory, Alexander is mortal. Heather was a visiting Fey.
