I've been looking for a version of this song for my wedding. Yours is by far my favorite recorded rendition thus far in my searching. I can only hope I find an mp3 or other audio-only version from someone that does this song justice the way you do. The simplicity is so very beautiful. Thanks for sharing. I may never have seen the beauty in this song if I hadn't stumbled across your video!

Don't let that canadian hater get you down ;) I think it sounds wonderful and gave me goosebumps!

[DogsLuvUNoMatterWhat]

Very nice.

Nice effort, Wendy. In my humble opinion songs like that should not be embellished in any way, and if you do it, it will have to be within the timing

It's the same with pre-teen American anthem singers who seem to think it's ok to butcher the anthem by trying to warble as many notes into a bar as possible. Hey, it isn't their song to change , so sing it straight.

Just my two Canadian cents. You have a lovely voice, use it right...

Wendy - Thank you so much. You will never know what this has meant to me. Richard was on the ventilator and sedated once you had recorded this song but I did play it for him.

Thank you for your friendship Carla
