  • I love the vocal richness of the McGarrigle harmony

    and I love the mournful wisdom of this version by Black.

    Renditions should not be, in my view, an attempt to replicate, but an opportunity to reinterpret and highlight other qualities in a song which may not have been previously expressed.

    That a person prefers one version over another reflects more on her/him, than it does on the performer.

  • Jeeze ... her mouth is miles from the microphone.  What a powerful voice!

  • Love the almost mournful vocals of Ms. Black .Crystal clear pure voice,lovely

  • @pippicat Yeah and it's not diminished today - she's possibly even better - heard her with Finbar Furey Walking With Me Darling - in a lower register and pure and sweet as ever. Bit hard to find her cd's down here (Oz) hope she comes back soon and her record company gets off its arse..

  • What a pure, true voice, and at only 24... 

  • cool clip thanks for sharing ..

  • Stunningly beautiful. I can only imagine what the McGarrigles' heavenly harmonies might have sounded like wedded to Mary Black's powerful and poignant voice.

  • go mary go, this is Irelands greatest asset......beautiful singers and she is one of the best, Privilged to have seen her live 3 times and can't wait to see her again

  • Wow! Such a beautiful cover! Mary Black at her best. I prefer this type of song and arrangement over some of the more overproduced songs on some of Mary's songs. She has an incredible voice and I love many of her songs...just don't care as much for ones that have a lot of overproduced arrangements as some of the later albums (or should say some songs...not all). This song is outstanding!!!

    Vocals and arrangement.

  • @ Hi jkoncz.....back at you...Mary Black is a brilliant artist and a lovely woman.
