  • nicefrog45. Can I amend the above that I posted as I should in fact have said that Eliza'a ancestor, General Jedediah Huntington participated in the American War Of Independence NOT the Civil War. With apologies!

  • We knew what you meant. It is a good song in any case.

  • anyone know the chords for this song?

  • The amazing thing of this song is it is based upon her ancestry and her great+ father had written letters and they came across her path to make this incredible song! Powerful indeed........

  • It's hard to really explain how much I love this song. Probably the best lyricist out there right now.

  • Thanks for posting this great song. I too am the descendant of a Valley Forge survivor, Christopher Ware Long, who ended up carrying the American flag at the surrender of the British at Yorktown. To me this song is a reminder that these were ordinary folks with ordinary concerns making an extraordinary sacrifice, and it behooves me to use well the freedom that they won for me.

  • i am going to see her in canterbury uk this thurs!! cant wait. what a beautiful voice.

  • Jedidiah* =p Thank you--Her voice is so amazing!

  • Hey, anybody got a video of Eliza doing "Calling All Angels???" I NEEEEED that song, I can't find it anywhere on YouTube!! That is the song that brought Eliza to my attention. Gimme that song. Especially the not-live studio version.

  • Why couldn't my dad have played at the Philly Folk Fest in '06? We were there YEARS ago...like '97 and '99. So unfair! I would love like mad to see Eliza. This song makes me tear up every single time I hear it.

  • eliza is my grandmother

  • I had the pleasure of seeing Eliza perform this song live at The Bugle Boy. I found myself in awe of her ability. I could listen to her for hours. I have heard that she will be coming to LaGrange again and I plan on being there, I couldn't miss it. Wonderfull songwriter and singer. Thanks for the clip.
