Looks like Hayley is just about ready to be in the movies! Wonderful tribute to Vera Lynn. She also had a wonderful voice in her prime, as Hayley also does.
When I get down, I always listen to this wonderful version of We'll Meet Again and video. It always brings a smile and a sense of joy for me. God Bless Dame Vera Lynn. And thank you Hayley for such beauty as a singer and woman.
Is it not amazing when she cuts in from the video screen? . Wow............. DV what a voice, I'm just loving this................I want Hayley to do White Cliffs of Dover aswell. maybe a duet................. still you are both great. Jess Dog 2010 (under 25 and still a big fan) xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx like Hayley's Abide with me too xxxxxxxxxxxxx
Hayley what a beautiful voice, Dame Vera must be so proud, I'm sure . What a tribute to a lady who means more, to most of us than any monarch or prime minister, unselfish, enduring, simply England (Scotland wales and Ireland) I can;t iamgine a world without her. We'd probably not have got through the war without her. God Bles you Vera. Love to youxxxxxxx stay with us pls for a while longer and sing .... Jess dogxxxxxx
Wow, this was beautiful rendition of the song and a terrific tribute to Vera Lynn, who still is one of my favorite singers of all time. Hayley gave a lovely performance :)
I was very deeply touched by this rendition. i am in serious tears right now. I am not even close to being from the ww2 generation but there was a strong sense of sadness attached to this that sort of made me picture myself saying goodbye to a loved one off to war. amazing and moving little song!!! Thanks so much!!!
She is so cool !!! and giving up so much to take over from VL. That video brought a tear to this guys eye. Vera Lynn is also cool ! and she has found the perfect angel to follow up her good work.
@18Wouter18 Not really much point telling her that on this video, how the hell would she see it? Anyway when performing in large venues with bright lights you have to overdo the makeup or your features get washed out - it's an old stage trick.
This had me weeping. My dad is an 85 year old WWII US soldier, and when I think of how the English suffered in that war...well, who could keep from weeping?
how is it possible for me to thank you for everything???? I have just served with british troops in afghanistan. Wish that Montgomery could use me. Greetings from a friend!
This is such a beautiful rendition. Although Hayley's voice doesn't begin to compete with Vera's she does a beautiful job. And that surprise at the end just raised goosebumps on my arm.
Wow! Truly Beautiful & the clarity & the voice of an Angel from long ago -Magnificiant! I Loved it! & Thx for sharing & cheering me up Dear Sweetheart David!;) Love & Hugs~ Glory;)
I know hayley is magic, just heard her singing abide with me just i love dame vera also x it'll take sum time for me to accept another forcrs sweetheart
Hayley this was brilliant performance but this song can only be sung one person. Just hear the last part dubbed in, a voice that makes us cry when it sings, and crys when it sings. She should come down on her crutch, I know she could! young lad oldham ( my granny loves her)
loved this .I have alot of respect for out British troops Im waiting for my basic training to start after Christmas im going into the 1yorks based in Germany
Excellent! 5 stars for uploading and sharing, hwivid. I'm always moved to tears when I hear this song and Hayley Westenra has done it justice. She has the voice of an angel.
I sobbed my eyes out to the last minute of this, and I must say, other than the decommisioning of HMY Britannia, it is the only time I have seen HM the Queen cry (or be very close to tears).
The Queen doesn't show her tears very often in public, as far as I know, but I did see her shed a tear or three during the funeral of Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother.
very touching at the end! my english friend told me who she is. God bless her for her efforts and God bless all those who lost their lives for freedom's sake.
Well The Queen obviously approved by the way she was clapping at the end. Ive never seen the royal hands move so vigourously. This will sell by the truck load.
The single will feature Veras original vocal with the From Choir. Dont know whether hayley wil be involved. Not sure of release date but it may do well if the Brothers Grime win the arse factor.
always reminds me of Dr Strangelove

No words can adequately describe the sacrifice of men
and women we honour today.
Not for fame or reward, not for place or rank
Not lured by ambition or goaded by necessity
But in simple obedience to duty as they understood it
These men and women suffered all, sacrificed all, dared all and died
