Streets of London - Blackmores Night

[grahammurphy2]

blackmore is class deep  purple rainbow blackmores night perfection

[awilki1963]

I have not long discovered this and other Videos of Blackmores Night, All I can say is Amazing, She defo has the voice of an Ange!!!! Would love to see live.

[52musicfan]

i think it's -Ralph's music+Ritchie's guitar and Candy's voice!

[MrForever00]

Great version

Love it

[gaffer35]

wow

[1HaviksVrouwe]

I like this version but I like the version of Roger Whittaker more

[sandinmyears1]

@1HaviksVrouwe - And the version by Liam Clancy is the best.

[LuckyzzCharm13]

i love this song been listening to this band since before i can remember and ive stuck to them the whole time they bring me heartsease and this song does tht the most. amazing band, amazing musician, amazing singer

[nickmasterx]

excellent cover of the original

[lunaracial]

I link to this video from Ralph Mctell's "Streets of London". When I saw the name "Blackmore's Night", I thought that it would be some weird heavy metal band and expect to find a laugh or two. Surprisingly, it turns out to be an amazing band and I'm so glad I found this video,

[QueenReigns1]

@lunaracial

If you associate the name Blackmore with some " weird heavy metal band" ..you obviously know nothing about Ritchie Blackmore..you should do some research.

[blueicychill]

This band's music has made many hours of thesis-writing SO much more tolerable for me!

[GETTINGOLDGUY]

Really? If you want to be a real artist like the other "Americal Idol" artists who "make the song your own", maybe you should write "your own". That was really bad. Hey - Stevie Nicks wannabe - GO AWAY.

[DougWardBlammo]

Too bad American assholes can't grasp the concept of "VIDEO" site.

[McDago100]

@DougWardBlammo There are plenty of decent Americans! Unfortunately they are quiet ones.

[MrLetsrock54]

@DougWardBlammo I'm American I love this

[wateezit]

Whenever I am in the right mood this song sounds like the frequency to reach God.

[hervye66]

love this song.

[suzette4377]

Good, but Anti nowhere league's version is better!

[professorFloyd]

Great cover

[emilysingsalot]

just uploaded my first attempt at a cover of this song, not sure if everyone will like it, but please please have a little listen, would be much appreciated! :) x

[iluvanimexanimals]

I always think of Sweeney Todd when I hear this

[blueicychill]

@iluvanimexanimals So true... that sort of sad, dark feeling...

[jjoggi1969]

just great.......



[nath909]

Ritchie obviously thinks he's some kind of warlock

[QueenReigns1]

@nath909

" Witch " he is.

[SuperLudwigdrummer]

I just gota hear some purple after this, kind of gota shake this off er me!

[Fudgeforum]

Fabulous version !

[phonedoug]

Hasn't anyone heard Mary Hopkin's version? It is the best, and there aren't any bad versions I've heard.

[velebr3]

This song is in my english language student's book.

[metacosmos]

@velebr3 Please let us share it !

[saribar001]

not surpassed!

[wateezit]

This song always makes me feel at ease with everything.

[Tatjana1172]

Ich finde das ist die Beste Version sogar besser als das Original !!

Super toller Song !!

[hervye66]

My newest favorite from Blackmore's Night. Awesome! Thank You so much for posting this.

[humdrum17]

woo hoo pachelbels cannon in D chord progression FTW!!!

[zedochoro]

@humdrum17 yes, but in C

[Fl03ckch3n]

@humdrum17 yay, like about thousands of other songs

[humdrum17]

woo hoo pachelbels cannon in D chord progression FTW!!!

[smokeynewton]

I just have one thing to say to Richie.......

Well done you! (and I'm not talking about the music)

[plooploo1]

just total bollocks, Blackmore has lost the fruckin plot, one of the worlds greatest guitarist GONE for ever..........great wig Richie, and the birds young enough to be ya grand daughter lol

[MyrddinTheMetalHead]

but its better than the original !

[llewdor]

I had no idea this was a real song. I'd only ever heard the version by the Anti-Nowhere League - which is awful, like everything the League does. But this is wonderful. Thanks for posting.

[rivonbd]

liked it just bcuz blaackmore cover it :-p

[dickensbg]

@rivonbd You're absolutely right, next is STRANGERS IN THE NIGHT!

[IVH93]

extremely beautiful song!! :)

[venbergm]

@MillyCyrcott The song itself is nice. There are many good versions, but I agree with you, this is the best

[MillyCyrcott]

I think it's better than McTell's.

[Frapasce11]

I think McTell's version is better than this one.

[silverblade2006]

im a major blackmore fan so i thank you for posting this and if you got anymore please post them as well. my favorite one by them has got to be under a violet moon though. it is the song that was playing when i first danced with my fieance and will be the first dance of our wedding. blackmores night is what brought us together so they hold a special place in my heart.

[hyperionem]

Wonderfull...

[kumise]

I think the live version from Blackmore's Night from the concert in Paris is the absolutely best!

[phonedoug]

What about Mary Hopkin's version? The best.

[Pippin1988]

Love this version, but still think McTell's version is better. He seems really paint the image of hopeless people in your head, while Candice's voice is too sweet I think to really do this song justice.

[torr4545]

Not better than the original but very good

[waaltaar]

exactly true !!

best verion of this song, great

[hyperionem]

a wonderfull song.. a cover , but better like the original.. thanky Candice and thanks Ritchie... this sweet and onderfull girl had change the lifestyle from Ritchie and his musikstyle... we love you Blackmore´Night

[shaniaisgod]

aint it amazing what a beautiful woman can do to the greatest guitarest of all time I saw Ritchie in Newcastle in 82 will never f

orget

[Amy2Daisy]

I came across this song purely by mistake.. was looking for something else.. but I am very glad I decided to listen! :)

EXCELLENT TUNE!

Thank you so much for posting!

[Tazzman]

@Amy2Daisy Seems we both stumbled on this video by mistake and it turned out to be something good!

[abooboo4u]

What a duo...such music and that voice...just breathtaking.....nice song Cheers .....Da Texas fat boy

[pigletized]

I love everything Blackmore has done, except smashing those cool, expensive guitars back in the 70s. He should have given them away instead.

[Leguitar1]

I prefer Ralph's..

[velvetkit69]

Candace has a heavenly voice.....and when matched with Ritchie's guitar work....the results are breathtaking

[phonedoug]

Yes, Mary Hopkin was a beautiful voice in a beautiful woman. I loved all her stuff.

[phonedoug]

Not a bad version although the best version I've ever heard is by Mary Hopkin.

[safehouse123]

you mean theres another who remembers mary hopkin???

[shaniaisgod]

I remember her

[QueenReigns1]

Knock knock, who's there.?

Mary Hopkin.

[RulerOfRock666]

As good as Purple or Rainbow!

[applebeatle]

Can't imagine Gillan or Dio singing this.

Graham Bonnet maybe lol

[shaniaisgod]

not even Graham Bonnet but Candace does this well

[UBCForce]

SO AMAZING - 5 stars

[IEatYourPocky2009]

the beginning sounds like Canon

[hazegood]

if you mean Pachelbels Canon in D, thats because it, like many pop songs is

[moonlight2679]

I love canon, my sis wrote lyrics to that song!

[applebeatle]

Post the lyrics..I'd love to learn them..

[IEatYourPocky2009]

this is so good.

[Crazybutnice91]

this is such a meaningful song....+ i love this version !!!

he beginning reminds me of Canon in D xD

[DanekoBL]

Dobra pjesma...samo šteta što nema titla. Ovako ništa ne razumijem. :-D

[gromins]

Great song

[blackbloodyalex]

just great !!

love that version...

[tausender]

clap clap bravo.........

[Tazzman]

ENCORE!!!!!!!!!!

ENCORE!!!!!!!!!!

[promtaet]

im going streets now! i want to now this feeling

[phase866]

I learned about Blackmorse Knights from my mom, shes a big fan of them and now I am too <3

[LadyHelluin]

Um, no offense, but they're called Blackmore's Night, phase866.

But great song! <3

[phase866]

i don't know why u would waste time correcting someone's spelling mistakes on a comment that was put here a month ago but, ok.

[mysticalninjaduelist]

Blackmore's Night is my favorite modern folk band. She's got an amazing voice, and he is, of course, a stellar musician. And I love this song :D

[FANOFFAST]

Ah, Mr & Mrs Blackmore. Love it!

[wizhack]

For sure it's a much better version than my version , I admit, but still in the time we live some people died in the Streets of London in winter time , THANKS to remind us thoses sads things

[SophietjeKoffietje]

Blackmore's Night Rulez !! (^^,)

[liciu93]

very nice .....i love this version

[mickyh75]

she has an amazing voice

[dw558]

I LOVE this song, and this version is even better than the original!

[Tazzman]

After hearing this version, I forgot who did the original!!!!!!

[PjotrV1971]

Original is by Ralph McTell.. but I've very much fallen in love with this rendition,,,

[HedgehogChopper]

roger whittaker

[ihrkenntmichnicht]

Better than the original version.

[9496tull]

yes i agree

[charliedontsurf70]

stevie nicks who?

[jimmydcap]

out with the old in with the NEW!! LOve you Candice you are an ANGEL

[youngernet]

This is my best one. Outstanding for all aspects.

Gentle and sensitive vocal, very emotional instrumental, particularly the intro.

[Joske68]

Beautiful song, beautiful voice..subtile

Ralph likes it I think.. I do!!

[Kampfkatze7519]

nö, es ist neu interpretiert, aber verdammt gut

[Jamie0162]

That song is only covered by Blackmore's Nigh!!!

[ovetjkin]

O rly? Stil, a very, very good song!

[KRdata]

If you are going to mention every song that is covered you are going to be busy. What matters is that it's a really beautiful song and it's a good cover :)

[Jamie0162]

Of course, it's a really good cover. I would never say anything against it. I only said, that it's covered...

[MagicMusicLover]

It's a cover, but it is better than the original !

[Jamie0162]

Yes, that's right!!! :-)

[SilverWolfMoon]

@MagicMusicLover

Though Blackmore's Night are one of my absolute favourite bands and I love this cover, I disagree that it's better than Ralph McTell's original. I'd say it is 'comparable' or 'equal to' :)

[Tazzman]

@SilverWolfMoon Well put SilverWolfMoon! I agree 100%!!!!

[SilverWolfMoon]

@Tazzman It's the same with their cover of 'Child In Time' ~ a new take on a great song, which stands up wonderfully beside it, neither one 'better' than the other :)

[MultiTerra2010]

@Jamie0162 actually aside from Ralph McTell's version, there was also one by Sinnead O'Connor before BMN came along

[unicatoothfairy]

thank you for uploading this beautiful song of blackmore's night.
