This is a gorgeous song, but it literally isn't "My Lagan Love."
It sounds like a creative RESPONSE to "My Lagan Love," being sung from the girl's perspective in the original. That's a great idea on its own, but why did she extend the meter for the verses so much? The tune is almost unrecognizable in this incarnation.
Also, she can't quite seem to reach the low notes properly.
Amazing Collage Video!!! But I Prefer Sinead O'connor's Live Version Of This Song!!! Kate's Version Is Pretty Haunting, But All The Lyrics Are Different. I Don't Like Her Blunt Ending Of The Song!!!
Kate is an iconic legend. I had never heard her sing this beautiful song but her voice is perfect for it. It's one of my favourite songs and is now more special than ever. Thank you so much for posting this
@glasscandles2u Thanks for replying so politely if disagreeing. I do love Kate and regard her more as an artist than a Pop star. I couldn't resist pointing out the pitch problem here because no-one else had mentioned it. Even the first note starts under but the interval between 2nd and 3rd notes sounds like an ambulance sped by. She must have recorded this a capella with the other sounds laid on as the pitch bumps resulting are awful. Never mind , if the Tallis Scholars can go flat, so can Kate.
@alipitogen Kate establishes her pitch in the middle of this performance and probably should have begun in the key she ended up in. It would be haunting for me to listen to without the interjections of the instruments, which graphically expose the puncture. I'd love to know who they thought they were fooling. I know she should have had another take because she's better than this.
@alipitogen The sounds were laid in by Glasscandles2u...this is a fan-made video and not the original audio by Kate Bush (which is completely a capella). You can find her original recording elsewhere on youtube.
@robbjmc I fear I'm somewhat of a voice in the wilderness here. I didn't realize that the background was added on by the uploader .Apologies, but the pitch bumps are not Glasscandles2u's fault. Kate definitely and categorically goes flat and it would still stick out like a sore thumb even without the accompaniment. Having said all that I am a fan -really. I'll shut up now until someone else agrees with me.
wow i am so happy that is not her at 2:47. she had such incomparable beauty when she was young, and to think of her ending up looking like that woman was quite sad! i mean, i know she isn't a waif-like fantasy creature anymore, but i think that is how i, and many people alike will forever see her.

To me the flat pitch seems essential. It's the dissonance that creates that haunting sound. I really like it.

@alipitogen The pitch has been changed in a few places on this video...
Glasscandles2u, where does the extra audio come from? Is there a bit of the live version of The Man With The Child In His Eyes in the mix?
