Nothing wrong with this cover at all. He treats the choruses with deep, dirty harmony that is a refershing new take on the song. 2 thumbs up from this guy, who happens to like both of the other versions very much, as well.
Not a fan of this cover - Kate Bush's original is very minimal in accompaniment - the level of production and manipulation on this cover just covers up a song that doesn't require that level of fussing. (IMHO, at any rate!)
Really like this version . Could you check me out Hope Murphy singing live my version of this song Hope Murphy I am a 16yr old singer/songwriter or check out Mama Knows Best Thanks Hope Murphy x
Hello Hope! I've looked at your music, and I have chills running up my spine. Really. How in hell can a 16 year old have a voice like that? You're amazing, truly you are. I can see you becoming a very famous singer, I really can.
For those unaquainted with the original version of this song, Kate Bush wrote this song for the 80's movie "She's Having A Baby". The song is about a man having to cope with his wife possibly dying in childbirth. Just to tug at your heartstrings a bit more.
@jennyloughman after reading your comment i burst into tears. congratulations on tugging at my heartstrings, and what a beautiful song. i did wonder what it was about and now i know it makes me really sad x
All this craziness with Glee had me wondering why the hell I knew this guy's name and this was why! I remember hearing this song on Three Rivers! Duh!
you spend years in a relationship, and know how that person is, you try to move in together, don't try to ask her for help with the bills,{ she's independant, but can't help with bills because she owes her landlord over a thousand in rent} still, don't suggest she's a boat anchor if she can't help with rent. bad idea.
Where can i download this version? Please. please. I want this. For so long, i searched this after i heard this on the vampire diaries makes me wonder that this song is so beautiful. More better version than Kate Bush. =)))))))
My life is now....meaningless. *chokes on sob* No more looking forward to Friday afternoons..... No more excitement in school and anxiousness to get home and watch it.... No more excited discussions about the latest episode on Facebook in The Vampire Diaries group...... No more amazing songs.... No more..... *sobs quietly* ....Damon.....
.....Until January.... My life has no meaning..... *crawls into dark corner* *rocks continuously back and fourth*
Good. But the girl who wrote and sang this song originally was one of, if not the best female artist to come from these isles. Famous in England, loved in America and abroad for her beautiful tones and celtic roots. give it up for KB. she is the best so far in female entertainment as far as i'm concerned. beautiful.
@xItBeJadaBee Well, for one, I never said anything was wrong with it or that it was a bad cover. I simply stated that she was the original....and not EVERYONE thinks his cover is better...just an FYI. Now, have a nice day ;)
i got teared eye when lexi look at stefan like i didnt get to say goodbye again and neither did he i so wish they bring lexi back stefan really needs her.
I think episode 7 is really touching me! with this song and the scenes! Anna gone, Lexi gone, but thank God, Anna finally met her mother before disappeared ! T.T sad sad sad
This is definately one of my all time favorite songs by Kate Bush. If you have not seen Maxwell's version of it you should check it out. Great job with it, man.
Well, I had to trawl through the internet for this but for you, I'd recommend you Google "Youtube to MP3". The first couple of results should give you some good free converters.
Guys, thanks for the lovely comments and the views. I've only ever watched the pilot of TVD but now I'm compelled to begin watching it again. Thanks guys!
Why cant they use Kate Bushs version? This is the second cover they have used of her songs along with Placebos cover of "running up that hill" which was used in the pilot.
Since I watched the Vampire Diaries episode where I first heard this song, I have been listening to it none stop! The best cover for this song that I have heard especially in this genre of music!
Greg Laswell, you have won me over! Fan for life :-)
@burritosb ok, thanks for letting me know, you don't have to be rude about it. I first heard the song on so you think you can dance, and maxwell sang it, so I assumed that was the original song.
I've always loved this song! it's one of my fav's... always will be... Vampire Diaries on Thursday the moment this song came on... it left me speechless... brought me to tears :)
Utterly beautiful. What a voice! Every other cover I've heard of this song makes me cringe, but this one for me even beats the original. Breathtaking.
Wow, I love this song so much.I put it on a cd (the orginal one) and my husband played it during the hardest parts of my labor while having my son 7 years ago.Now mY husband is dead and all I have are these small memories of him to hold dear. Brings tears and smiles to my face.Thank you...
Thanks to TVD for introducing me to GREG LASWELL..and thanks to Greg Laswell for his music..AWESOME!.. After hearing "this woman's work" on TVD, i rushed searching for his music and then listened to them and they're all brilliant!..
@iheartstefan14 A pale, weak, faint, watery shadow of the incomparable original. If you want to appreciate a "woman's work", listen to Kate Bush's sonorous original
@raiisdashxt Thinking before you post avoids those sometimes-not-so-little embarrassments. And if anyone needs to calm down, it's you, with the quick-post-trigger-finger. You're fortunate YouTube lets you delete your own comments; many sites don't.
Such a sad and beautiful song. I love the quiet and deepness of this song and I like Laswell's voice.
