I saw Kate sing this live in Oswaldtwistle of all places in 2008.............. Breathtaking !!!

oh no - they're comparing again....

I once heard the phrase "the incomparable Sandy Denny"

this is perfectly lovely

Sandy is Sandy

imagine them both walking hand in hand

through time

@ben909ben the best comment yet on Kate singing what is essentially a song with Sandy's name on it - they would have dueted perfectly - i am sure Sandy would like her words kept alive by singers who could and who cared.

This version has an English Folk sound to it.

Aye. Time. It's a funny auld thing. Days, months, I could count them.

I thought no one could sing this as beautifully as Sandy Denny. I admit to being wrong!

Well, if I may...Sandy's version was stunningly pure and ethereal; an angel song tethered to earth only by Thompson's guitar. It is a universal ode to love and loss. Kate's version is warm, grounded and intimate. While Sandy was singing to the universe, one senses here that Kate is singing directly to the one she loves. Both versions are breathtaking.

5 people are completely tone deaf.

I noticed more modern singers have a lot less angst or stress in there voice....kate rusby singing is very liberal and chilled out whether sandy denny and folk from past has more urgency and is passionate through a sense of lack of time :D

Will people finally learn that comparisons are odious and pernicious and detract from the music. Just appreciate the music if you can and please don't annoy people by stating that your favourite song, singer, or cover version is better than everyone else's favourite. If you can hear something in a voice and find something in a song, good on you. It doesn't really matter who is bigger, better, faster than who. We all have our favourites. I'll let Sandy go on singing my song if you don't mind.
