Mr. Niland. My daughter just came back this spring from a semester in Ireland. She had the privilege of seeing you perform live in a small pub. After seeing this video...how I envy her! She told me as well of your intention to forward on one of your CD's. She was not all that surprised to find that it arrived at her dorm several days later. Since then I've been veiwing your youtube stuff. You are indeed a gentleman and a man blessed by God. You are inspiring me to pick up my guitar again
Just seen him in Cork School of Music...Absolutely Brilliant! Bought both of his cd's....a must buy and "Wuthering Heights"...the best cover of that song I've ever heard!
Oh wow!!! I am floored! This is the biggest surprise on this song. Indeed, captured the spirit and passed by the original version with it's own magnificent originality. Fantastic. This is by far the best cover, and in my book, because it doesn't attempt to mimic KB it is as good as the original. Stabbed my heart.
Beautiful! Most coherent version. I've heard this one, Kate Bush's original, Hayley Westenra's too, but I still like Pat Benatar's rock n roll version the best and I think she has the best voice!!!
None finer than Kate's version, how could there be, it's hers for gods sake! But this is great; respectful, isn't pastiche, manages to have the spirit of the original while being original itself.
Great version of a great song. Apart from Kate this is the best. Lovely guitar work and a really nice guy. Saw him in De Barra's and he was more than willing to show chords etc.
class,nice to see the chords spent a year tryn to figure them out exact,glad to see they were the same and the split tuning,and i was working in a rough place then,good stuff albert
I return to this version all the time....just astonishing.

This is awsome. 5 stars.
The only question i have is:
how can so many awful covers have so many more views and subscribes and stars?
people can't apreciate a really musician.
I can tell you that simple chords everyone can play. So u just need to be good looking to be succesful?
