another ballad beautifully sung by Ms McKinnon

Awful. A true massacre.

could you clarify...phrasing, pitch, intonation, diction, tempo, style...what exactly is awful? many like her presentation...can you provide some enlightenment.

Beautiful singing. I like the way the chorus joined in near the end. Very effective!

Beautifully sung - I love this version, she has such a wonderfully rich voice.

If you'd like to hear another lovely version of this song, have a listen to Nana Mouskouri singing it. She includes the 'operatic' part which Catherine leaves out.

My mothers cousin,the voice of an angel for sure!!!

this song is not by her.. it's sung by her. But she does a beautiful job :)

Every time I watch the BBC news on T.V. I feel as though my eyes kiss the Eyes of the charming well informed news presenters .The only trouble is who informs them.I think the answer must be written in the SKy.

In my opinion, this is the best version, thanks for posting.

@H3ndr1ka Thanks!!! I think it was Mom's first solo song, and there used to be a 45 of it lying around my Nana's house (over by the Public Archive!), but it's long gone now.

Next time we're in Halifax, I'll ping you! :-)

@literalgirl Hi, I did go to the Mount! So long ago, and music was so important to us. Catherine and Patrician Anne were our stars! My Mom still has them on vinyl, I will ask about "blue Lipstick".

[literalgirl]

@H3ndr1ka Hi - Did you go to Mt St Vincent? That's the only school I have photos from for my mom (Patrician Anne). It's so nice to see feedback like yours. I also wish my mom had lived long enough to see her music (even just duets with Catherine) posted on YouTube for the world to hear. Maybe I should explore more, because someone may have posted her solo material too, by now!

You don't happen to have a copy of "Blue Lipstick", do you? :-)

Thank you. I haven't heard Catherine McKinnon in thirty years, and I'd forgotten how good she was.
