JOHN OF DREAMS

[LadybirdGryphon]

Oh, so lovely! I've heard this song by many others, but this one is the most beautiful rendition I've ever heard. Thank you so much.

[jhankri]

What an appropriate song ..........that will see me through on this dark night....the Martin seems to be playing you......as is sometimes the case.....sometimes the role of instrument and singer seem reversed..........

[ichingiching]

oh yes.. that has happened many times.. i remember watching David Wilcox run a song writing session at Auckland Folk Festival some years ago.. he said that some mornings he would sit down with his guitar and ask.. " now guitar, what have you got for me today"..? that says so much...

I heard this song for the first time about a week ago and it's been haunting my waking hours since then (my son asked if John sings it to me when I'm asleep since I hum it all of the time these days...). Love the melody and this version is one of the best ones I've seen good. Thank you for posting it. Now I have another song to learn - hope it's a quarter as good as this is.

[ichingiching]

what a lovely post.. i think john sings to everyone if they only take the time to listen.. i hope you enjoy learning this beautiful song..M:)

[seanog75]

Not too often a singer can give me goosebumps and a tingle down the spine, you have tonight sir, you have. greetings from a fellow singer in Belfast! :)

I come her every now and again to remember when my son John was young.

He's a man now and that's good...

Thanks... I feel satified again

[ichingiching]

Hi FSOL.. thank you.. this has warmed my evening.. and brought something kind into my life.. M:)

[tryingtoplay90]

Another great job. I just found this song and I am trying to learn it. It is simple yet calls for much emotion and you nailed it, thanks.

[ichingiching]

thanks ttp90.. look forward to listening when you post it.. cheers M

[mjollnir1969]

Beautiful rendition. I first heard this song accompanied by a hammered dulcimer, and have unfortunately lost my recording, this comes very close to that recording, which brings back a very happy time of my life, thank you.

[Sparroweye]

I like your singing and guitar playing very much. Especially like this one.

[ichingiching]

Mny thanks SE

[Rovmis]

Awesome rendition. Thank you very much for taking the time to record this. I think the way your guitar spoke really pulled off the piece, and truly told how the song is meant to be heard.

[ichingiching]

Hi Rovmis.. Its a beautiful song.. to be played late at night I think..cheers M..

[WHATnoPies]

once again ,thanks 4 this absolute delight,

[sunturtle1965]

This guy is awesome... I really like all his stuff. If he reads this just would like to say "Thanks".

[ichingiching]

He does and responds to every note (eventually) Many thanks for your kind comments. Cheers Mike

When Midnight comes and people homeward tread Seek now your blanket and your feather bed Home comes the rover, his journey's over Yield up the night time to old John O'Dreams Yield up the night time to old John O'Dreams Across the hill the sun has gone astray Tomorrow's cares are many dreams away The stars are flying your candle's dying Yield up the darkness to old John O'Dreams Yield up the darkness to old John O'Dreams Both man and master in the night are one

[madfortrad5958]

When Midnight comes and people homeward tread

Seek now your blanket and your feather bed

Home comes the rover, his journey's over

Yield up the night time to old John O'Dreams

Yield up the night time to old John O'Dreams

Across the hill the sun has gone astray

Tomorrow's cares are many dreams away

The stars are flying your candle's dying

Yield up the darkness to old John O'Dreams

Yield up the darkness to old John O'Dreams

[Ottawarocket]
