Loved this song when Lightfoot did it and I love this one as well. It's just a drop dead beautiful song. All these years later to hear Sarah singing it reminds me how young I was when first I heard it. Now I'm 56 and I would be happy to just hold the hands of those I have loved and lost down the years...
When I lost my baby, this song was played on the radio, and it just seemed to fit. This will always be the one I associate with her... beautiful, and deep... just like winter.
Song reminds me of a simple relaxed time being spent by the computer...just listening to music but nothing else. Purchased the record and was completely blown away with the music she had on Wintersong! This is one killer album!
this is by far one of my favorite songs... it's so haunting in it's melody that it bring back memories that I thought have long faded....'If I could know within my heart that you were lonely too, I would be happy just to hold the hands I love, on this winters night with you.' Breathtaking and warm!!!
@MoonBeamWalker same here... it was the episode with fraser's sister i think where i heard this. in fact i have been pretty much introduced to sarah maclachlan through due south
And furthermore in response to "Mr SpOonup my ass's" RUDE INSULT, I thought that Youtube was a place where people could express their personal opinion on a song without fear of being attacked by some DISRESPECTFUL CLOD ! I mean can you imagine if everyone's opinion on a song was the same ? GROW UP !!!
Candles, snow softly falling.... "If I could only have you near to breathe a sigh or two. I would be happy just to hold the hands I love on this Winter's night with you..." Beautiful video - images, photos, and music. Thank you, angelyessss
This rendition is nice, but nowhere near as good as the original by the GREAT Gordon Lightfoot. She never should have changed the arrangement to suit herself...
No, but he likes the money that it brings him. And if someone is CREATIVE they CREATE ! They don't do other peoples material. You probably like Beatles "covers" too ! And regarding the use of the word moron. People of your low intelligence that feel the need to go around name calling usually have the intelligence of well rounded seven year olds. And you couldn't hurt me if you wanted to, Why doesn't she perform "Plagarize Together" by The Kwik Copy Trio ?
Are you kidding? Take a look at her discography. Nearly everything she does is her own material; she doesn't do a large amount of cover songs. You're way off base.
this is good, but i still likes Gordon Lightfoot's version better.

I bet Gordon Lightfoot would love this rendition. It's great. They're both amazing.
Saying narrow minded things like "She never should have changed the arrangement to suit herself" will get you called things like "moron."
Arrangements are made to be fucked around with, it's called creativity.
And don't kid yourself. No one gives a shit about your opinion or whether or not it's hurt, much less the people on Youtube.
