I love Kate Rusby and have most of her CDs. For once, however, I have to admit that the most emotional version of this song is performed by Iris Dement, the song's creator. Iris' voice is powerfully emotional and raw, whilst Kate's rendition is hauntingly pretty.
Beautiful, beautiful! I'm a great fan of Kate. That said, for this particular song I have to admit that my favourite version is sung by Iris Dement - for intensely raw emotion.
Very pleasently suprised to see Kate cover this awesome iris Dement song. Your broad Yorkshire tones and your crystal voice compliment the song well. Excellent
This is just as good as Iris Dement's version and before I heard this, I would have said that was impossible. How does she do it? Amazing!
