This piece works best as a sincere, understated folk song. Mr. Kearns captures its spirit in a way that soothes the soul and brings tears to my eyes.

Best version Ive heard. I bought the original unknown 45 by Nancy Griffith back in 88. Then a few years later came Betts version that introduced this wonderfull song to the world, that somewhat spoilt the sentiment. You brought it back home, beautifull.

The legacy of Nanci Griffith's time on earth--and in Ireland. Nanci once said she was looking for longevity, that she hoped her songs would be coming back to her when she was 65. I hope we can count on Lily Kearns playing for a few more decades at least.

Lily - if you can post them, what are the chords you are playing for the song and was that guitar, by chance, a Yamaha FS800? Thanks and great job! I really liked it. Nanci Griffith's version of this song by Julie Gold was my first real like of the song, and so I like to find other covers of the song. Just excellent Lily!

Most people I know first heard this song as performed by Bette Midler. It was a huge international hit, although in my opinion, it was overproduced and a bit too polished. Your stripped-back rendition reminds me of the late Nanci Griffith's performance on the David Letterman show. You have a strong, solid voice but you've still conveyed the same vulnerability. I can't know for sure but I think Julie Gold would be proud of what you've done with her song.
