Didn't know you had gotten around to this already and I'm quite touched. I hardly know what to say Barbara. Now I'm the one with tears in my eyes. Hope to get to Austin sometime in the coming year and if it's in the cards play a show together. Thanks for your kind words too James- I'll be sure to bring along some kind of chocolaty treat when I come. You can supply the ginger tea. All the best to you both. -Brian
I think your voice works well for a plaintive song like this, standing alone, offering sympathy and compassion, It needs no more ebellishment that the guitar accompaniment.
@jkilcull I agree. At first statements like that seem ridiculous but I attempted to think of another female singer on youtube that I would consider 'better' and couldn't. there's plenty better in skill perhaps but not in talent. ;) would love to play/sing with someone like this... not just a voice but a beautiful communicative ability.
you have been absent for a long time,,,this is excellent,,, wish i could go somewhere and see you perform live,,,im gonna check out this bknap guy thanks
Outstanding performance, chills while listening and reminds me of early Joan Baez. Well written song Brian. A very special thank you to gerdenshed for this wonderful share. Performances like this is what keeps me coming back to YT. A pleasure meeting you young lady. Mark
CONGRATULATIONS! Nice performances, clear sound and pure, excellent voice!
Keep on, hope to see you soon on TV...:)

Excelent work. I really like how your voice is both so powerful and yet so delicate. And that suits this song so amazingly well. Way to go
