The ballad of Joe Hill

[moceanu]

i'm afraid your voice is only suited to cutesy lovey dovey poppy faggy songs. seriously, you have zero real feeling behind your mediocre singing.

[IsabelleAndersson]

@moceanu lol. wow. get a life, will you?

[Viking86Warlord]

Beautiful, heavenly

[mickey8355]

thank you so much. You have such a beautiful voice and your version of this song is my favorite. Thanks again. Love Ralph

[bigade691]

Joe Hill was a murderer. He murdered my Great Grandfather while my grandfather watched.  Our family is still hurting...

[petermfh59]

Simply wonderful voice. Lets hear more from you.

[aldoreshgaramok]

Can we have an MP3?

[markusnilsso]

Din röst är helt underbar. Skulle vara väldigt tacksam om det kom upp lite fler låtar som du sjunger. Föll för din version av Joe Hill första gången jag hörde den. Tack för det!

[ianwalkerdownland]

loved it,well done.

[BioDiplomacy]

This brought tears to my eyes and I still have an ache in my throat: the closest I have heard any of the cover versions come to the emotional intensity of Paul Robeson's voice. When sung like this, Joe Hill will never die.

[RadicalTradition]

Very good real joy to listen to after a hard working day :)

[CrazyCoach]

Joe Hill is another of Sweden's gifts to this world. I am proud to say that I have been to Gavle and that my grandpa was Swedish.

I am also proud of my dad for being a member of the Union of Operating Engineers, Local 955 for over 40 years.

Isabelle, you have the voice of an angel. Thank you for this song.

[WarphobblerKaz]

Excellent. You sing this with conviction. I went to visit his birthplace in Gavle decades ago. Thanks. Kaz

[MiserableOldFart]

Very nice, but SAOS, Joan Baez does a spectacular job with this song as well.

[trabby601]

Found this while searching for Billy Bragg. Absolutely brilliant, almost brought a tear to my eyes. Best version by a mile for me.

[jerzymirsky]

So wonderful to hear you sing this

[SAOS451316]

Comrade, you and Paul Robeson are the only two people in the world who can sing that song properly.

[statrock1]

Awesome

[Avisionoflove]

Great! Joe Hill never died. / From Gävle

[coldwarsailor]

Ive heard this song done by a lot of people, but this is the best ever!

[RolowTomasi]

Wow, nice.

[Tombstone314159]

I've always liked this song but never heard this beautiful singer before: you had me captivated Isabelle! Thank you. I'm a Liverpool Lad but when I as here all we had was those Beetles; grrrr!

[BrianEnright]

What a beautiful version you sang, Isabelle, of this important song. Thank you so much for sharing it! I will search for other songs sung by you on YouTube. You have a very pretty voice!

[paulmcgachan3000]

best version ive heard...excellent

[bealmor1963]

I grew up listening to my parents playing this on an old box record player. Always loved this song and this is now my favourite version. Go raibh maith agat/thanks.

[AnnaJuk]

Beeutiful! You have the voice of a nightingale.

[trotspice]

Great!

[Tliljegren]

[ellohello0]

One of the best voices ever

[OutlawMinniePearl]

Absolutely beautiful!!!

[gwmacdonald]

A classic song, I first heard Joan Baez sing 40 years ago. You do a great job.

[smialek316]

Beautiful job on this song! As a union person, I have always loved this song.

[quizzlie]

Big Joan Baez fan? Me too. You rock, Isabelle.

[reygood1]

You really sing it the way it's supposed to be sung. Beautiful, very sweet voice! You are a very good singer!

[IsabelleAndersson]

@reygood1 thank you!! :)

[AccountantOfDoom]

I was looking for versions of this song tonight - yours really stood out as the best I found.

[apocalyptica55555]

[peterhartt]

Thank you - sung with such feeling

[karlvonl1]

Very nice! You have a great voice and I´m hoping to hear more of it in the future!

Keep up the good work:-)

[mistercircumspect]

So lovely.....

[mistercircumspect]

I wish there were more voices like yours in present-day American musical culture. You have such a lovely voice.

[manelk8]

To those who much is given, much is expected......keep singing...you are very talented

[yooababy]

The face and voice of a real live angel, just beautiful, Joe has to have smiling eyes now!

[TangueroFinlandes]

Din röst är mycket skön. Hoppas att vi kan höra mer om dig senare. Och du kan tolka ballader.

Hälsingar från Helsingfors!

[IsabelleAndersson]

Thanks for all the nice comments!

[McMaxTheDane]

It's the best version I have heard since....................... maybe since Joan Baez when she was "younger" (I don't like the new versions I have found that much).

I want to hear much more.

[toady115]

beautiful voice 5*

[punxinparkas]

i wish ya lived in sweden, then ya'll be the highlights of our majfestival

[coldwarsailor]

What a wonderful Voice!!!!!

Im a Swede and always have believed in the right s of the working man. If you don't stand for something you will fall for anything. What most Corporate managment forget is if it were not for the working man thier companies would be NOTHING!

[Elodea]

There would be no "middle class" in the world as we know it without horrible toll paid by fledgling unions at the end of the 19th Century. This song will always live on in the hearts of hard working men and women.

[ZoZorro]

Härligt Isabelle - toppen att få spela med dig på kulturcaféet. Hoppas det blir fler tillfällen!

[zfh10]

gosh, that made me cry. wonderful song, wonderful voice.

[Diotima012]

Today is the 94th anniversary of his death.

[colhary]

after Bush one tends to think that America is crap but when you hear the ballard of Joe Hillstrom and the beautifull voice you realise that there is some good

[llieber100]

Great job! Keep up the good work; you have a talent.

[ellohello0]

[65Seatrout]

[Diotima012]

Beautiful.

This song makes me cry.

[KenTelevision]

[killerbee11111111]

[andyhforest]

It's still a great song (and important) song and this is a wonderful performance. I'm inspired mara235!

[DurrutisGhost]

Where is Joe Hill buried?

All over the world.

Solidarity forever, sister. :)

[ellohello0]

he was cremated as he asked for in his will

[mara235]

This is one of the most gorgeous versions of this song that I have ever heard, a young and powerful voice. May it inspire all the workers of the world to seek better living.

[cjva1688]

Sjukt vacker röst, tillsammans med en grymt bra och fin text. kan inte bli så mkt bättre.

[lucienneuwel]
