  • Leesha this is great....with your permission we'd like to add this to our humble little collection of Original Train Songs over at The Salvage Yard!?!? Best Regards, ron

  • I don't like it..... I love it.!!!!!

  • Phenomenal!

  • I've been on Youtube for over a year and just found this gift of yours...not unlike a spider web...light and airy, yet strong enough to capture and hold. I didn't even listen to the lyrics for the first few times; I was so caught up in the hypnotic sound and the starkness of the black and white. Please overlook my weak metaphors describing this sensory delight of verse, music, and video. Captivating.

  • man i love you

  • hey, this sounds beautiful ! Are you a pro ?

  • This song is so good, I come back for the occasional listen. This time, I clicked onto the Stats and Data icon to see where this song was popular. Wow! Most of the map is lit up. And Coal Train is quite popular in countries like China, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Turkey, Russia and Iran.

    So guess what, Leesha? Aside from wife/mother, singer-songwriter, videomaker, TV star.... you are also a cultural ambassador! That old Coal Train has sure has traveled far and wide!

  • This a great song~great lyrics ~beautiful voice~five stars:)

  • This is such a beautiful song. I listen to it frequently, and as a fellow songwriter, I really respect the craft you put into this.....as well as your great singing voice. :)

  • My friend Abby is an amazing choreographer. I can imagine her doing something great with this.

  • Back for another listen, Leesha. The way your music is being received is just so WONDERFUL! I love it when you really great artists get some recognition. Good for you!! Big hug... Suze

  • Hey Leesha! This is Bailey Johnson... Yuki is my mom, and the whole family says hi! I love your voice, and I just bought your CD. I hope you're doing great! We're praying for you!

  • wonderfull,outstanding and touching

    your voice is the voice of an angel girl

    greets

  • I am still amazed at your cinematographic (not sure what word to use) skill and intuition and creativity. You are such an artist, yet so down to earth... I know you could make a living at it if you had the right connections.. and if you wanted to.

    I never get tired of your songs!

  • sitting here amazed at your talent

  • Lovely stuff i like it.

  • Thanks so much, fowler24!

  • good stuff, just subscribed.

  • Thanks for subscribing! Glad you liked it!

  • I LUV this song...

    the only thing i hate 'bout it is that it keeps reminding me of the lonely and small state i live in... and will move away from!!! (hopefully!)

  • Just watched most of your videos. Was kinda cool to see you progress as a musician! It encouraged me to work harder. Coming from Wyoming I'm more traditional country, but I'm impressed by your music. And oh yeah, I almost forgot. The princess bride is a total classic! lol

  • Thank you so much! It's very reaffirming to know someone notices improvement in my ability. It lets me know my practice is not in vain! :)

    Best to you in your music!

    And yes, Princess Bride is a classic! Love it! :)

  • Hey I love your music !!!! Keep it coming. Fellow Omaha listener. :)

  • Thanks so much!  Just played a gig in Omaha last weekend... were you there?

  • You are just amazing! 5* plus subscribing!

  • cool song Leesha. i like how it rolls along just like a train chugging for miles n miles. nice reflection of the story thru the music. its always a gratifying and inspiring trip to chance upon true originals like this. u get all my stars!

  • Nice composition! Have a look at my videos as well if you can... :)

    Keep up the good work...

  • I love this song. Great songwriting!

  • Beautiful

  • It's a lovely song Leesha, well done!

    Soothing, has sort of a dreamy feel to it.

    Caroline:o)

  • amazing!

  • This is a great song (we are living near the railraod too) it's nice of you to let us download!

    thanks suuzzee5 for sharing!

    Compliments from Croatia!

  • love it today, too!

  • love it!

  • This is wonderful, Leesha - certainly deserving of feature. You get such a great sound quality, I love it. Personally, I think your song Runyararo should be featured and number on on the commercial charts and what not. You know, to effect the world in a positive way.

    Peace.

  • 'One gust and it's gone!'

    Glad to know there that no one was seriously hurt during recent night of tornados near you. About the train that was derailed... Can't help but wonder if it carried coal?

  • The guitar picking, music, and lyrics all work together just perfectly. The train passing by and the rain on the windowpane enhance the mood of the song and complete the tale. Excellent work!!! I always knew your talent was special and unique. Congradulations for being featured!!!!!

  • What a great video and a first class performance indeed! I just love black and white photography.

  • just stunning! great to hear this song - over and over again... grats leesha! "weiter so"

  • WHAT A GREAT SONG AND VDO!!!!! I FOUND THIS ON katesmeow FAVORITES...I CAN SEE WHY!!! SHE HAS SOME MATERIAL THAT WOULD DO WELL WITH THE KIND OF PRODUCTION THAT YOU HAVE...I'LL CHECK OUT YOUR OTHER WORK...LOOKING FORWARD TO ENJOYING MORE [P.S. WHAT THE WORLD NEEDS IS FOR YOU TO BE FAMOUS INSTEAD OF PERFORMERS LIKE AMY WINEHOUSE!!!!]

  • very nice-thanks for the download.

  • lovely song.. very lovely.. it's raining here and that song just soothed me

  • BEAUTIFUL! * * * * * HAPPY MOTHERS DAY!

  • very well done! standing o ***** :) @@===*

  • Hi Leesha,

    You really come through on your original songs. The heart and soul are evident. Give us more good stuff like this. Too much music today is far too commercialized. This is real!

    BTW, who is on the harp in this one?

  • Thank you so much. It's good to know that my intentions are coming through in the music.

    I played the harmonica on this song (and the guitar and vocals, of course... plus all the video!) :-)

  • This is nice, voice super, complimenti!!!!

  • what a nice and simple song.

  • hehe.. i thought you were a teenager

  • shes not?

  • Um... no. In my 20s. Married with children, actually.

    The thing I always say about looking younger than my real age--it's a curse when I'm young, but it will be a blessing when I'm old. ;-)

  • indeed it will be :-)

  • still love it

    Rusty

  • This is nice. How/where did you record this?

    My new video actually talks about the music industry (and studio life). If you check it out, let me know what you think!

  • Emo!!!!!!!!!!

  • cool...

  • how much was your budget to make this music vid?

  • Ha, ha, well, about.... $0! I filmed myself singing in the dining room, and then I took some shots out my front door, and then when I picked up my kids from school, I filmed a train passing by. Then I put it all together in Windows Movie Maker and voila! A music video! :-)

  • Hi Leesha,

    Well here is a very nice song! Straight from to the heart!

    Congrats from Europe!

    Paris France is looking at your clips girl!

    ;-)

    Chris

  • That was fabulous! I absolutely loved it... So much so that I went to iTunes to see if they had her, and they don't. Such a shame... I want a CD.

  • You can get the song on my website for free (leeshaharvey . com without the spaces), and while you're there, sign up to be on my e-mail list so you'll know when the CD comes out! Thanks! :)

  • Great words - really atmospheric; I love the video too - really natural, tells such a sad, bleak story - wonderful! I've been trying for the same look myself, see "Homespun Country" .. but you do it so much better!

  • been all over Nebraska and ya know ... ya can get to feeling just like the tone of this song. That's why I moved to Arizona !!!!!

  • Ha!  Ain't that the truth! ;-)

  • Are you trying to copy Dylan ?

  • eretzsus, that is such a stupid comment. There are plenty of songs by original artist that could fall into some other artist category. On the other hand, this song is a beautiful song that could fall into folk, pop, alternative and rock. Each artist has their own story and their own way. Browse her music and see her stories. ~Raven

  • Excellent use of video and song - you really create a mood. The fingerpicking is good too. I just did my first try with the video - please comment.

  • cool, check out the new orig-rock video*CRAZY* by the "Kings of None".

  • this song is exactly what i'm feeling tonight. right down to "he can go for miles with Miles"

  • Great, I liked the folksy-ness of the whole video and song.

  • great i feel sad now. thanks!

  • Very little besides a literal analysis of this song.... still decent i guess

  • Wow... you are amazingly talented!

  • wow, ou are very Talented!!..great Song!!...Cheers...

    CJ.

  • Cool, you even got a global feature as far as I can see! :) That's worth way more than my 'only country-wise feature'. You rock babe! Love your music :-)

    Kris

  • Thank you so much, my friend!  :-)

  • Thanks for the song, I'm in London studying and away from friends and family and it was a comfort to me. Peace.

  • I'm so glad the song could be a comfort to you. Good luck in London! Sounds exciting! :)

  • the amount of spam is really dissapointing...its a nice song and all ppl can do is post shit....*sigh* get a grip, ppl

  • Yeah, it's a bit frustrating, isn't it? Oh well... I'm learning to wade through it! Thanks for watching. :-)

  • Leesha- wow. reminded me of growing up in w. va.- what a great great song. i'm now heartbroken. thank you, that was incredible. pls don't change anything!!!

  • I'm glad the song means so much to you! Thanks for watching!

  • 30fps :( lol i know its silly of me. nice song tho, could have used a much better recording tho

  • perhaps i judged too soon. i personally enjoy higher contrasts, but the music is quite soothing.

  • Congratulations world on having the pleasure of hearing Leesha. Gee maybe Youtube is good for something after all. lol. Once you've found Leesha you won't be "Sorry love" because you'll find you've "Gotta Stay" and you have more than enough "Patience to Endure." Well that's my opinion and I may seem like a fanatic but "Don't Hold it Against Me" because I "Always Will Be." Go to her channel and get lost in some top notch music.

  • totally reminds me of kimya dawson, but totally rad.

  • Great song and video was well done too.

  • wow!great!

    keep up good work!

  • soooo cute

  • I cant play those videos and i dont know why  would somebody tell me plz?

     jimmy

  • Great song.

  • Leesha already knows I'm a fan, but GREAT job!

  • Thanks Mr. Spencer! :)

  • Excellent song and really well structured lyrics. For an independent artist the video is quite stunning. This reminds me a lot of Robyn Hitchcock. Hopefully you will be able to make it out to New England to do a show or two. Keep up the awesome work.

  • Thank you so much, RadConsv!

  • Congratulations, Leesha!!!!

    Paul

  • Thank you, my Bossa Nova friend! ;-)
