I first heard Richard on WFUV-FM from Fordham University in the Bronx, NY... I immediately ordered three of his cd's and went to see him in Huntington, on Long Island, NY... Love, Love, Love this man and his music... He brings such joy at a time when it could be the other way around. This is real, truly heartfelt music that touches my soul and captures my imagination... Thank you so very much. D

Sometimes I have to stop listening to Richard do these songs because I need to stop crying for a bit. Then I come back. Voice, lyrics, guitar... everything flows. Thank you, Richard. the world is far better for your art.

Playing this with you in the formal dining room of a 10th Century castle in Verona, Italy with a 13th century fresco of the Virgin and Child on the wall behind us was one of the most magical experiences I've ever had as a musician. I still have a picture of the fresco. Thank you for that, and for your wonderful music- David Webb

I suffer from migraines more often than I’d like to admit - this is my headache song. When I don’t have my meds with me, or if I’m waiting for them to take effect, I listen to this song, and sometimes Ballad of Mary Magdalene. The gentle guitar and soft singing does wonders for me - thank you Mr. Shindell!

Beautiful. I heard Richard Thompson reference Shindell somewhere (Maron podcast?), and decided to check him out, bought his Sparrows Point, and have listened to it over and over. This song is on that one, and it's a wonder, but if anything, it sounds even better here. What a great singer/songwriter. He should be a big star and very rich. If I were king . . .

Very cool, Mr. Shindell! (I call you Mr. because you are apparently a few weeks older than me.) I continue to enjoy your music very much and have shared it with several folks, a few against their will (very king-like, now that I think about it). Will buy the new one very soon.

I’m already for many many years addicted to this kind of music. The combination of poetry and music is something I cannot do with out, it’s part of my life. This song is perfect. It’s the poetry. The music. The voice. The softness of his voice at the right time and how he ends it. This man is fabulous.

I adore thee Mother Mary But would you change me back to a witch And let me live in the arms of a sorry old elm Give the gypsy moths a realm of their own For a postman's fee would I work for Thee From that tree would I swoop down and leave A billion blue eggs of eternity And in no time you'd have your own See Don't just stare I mean it, really Hear my prayer I give it freely Are you there Fleur-de-Lis? I adore thee Mother Mary But would you change me back to a witch And let me live in the arms of willow And fly around not wearing a stitch For so long has this room been so hollow We wait at the gate for an echo In the flesh of your newly cleaned frescoes Where Jesus holds John to his breast Wrapped around And rocking slowly No one bound To be so holy In your gown of fleur-de-lis I adore thee Mother Mary But would you change me back to a witch As a witch would I love you more than any man So give a wink, give a nod, but give a damn Be a sport, Mary, and don't tell Dad He need never know how He's been had And never you mind about those seven seals Daddy was a one shot deal One, two, three It could be that easy There we'd be I with my baby On a sea of fleur-de-lis Do-re-mi It could be that easy There we'd be I with my baby On a sea of fleur-de-lis Written by: RICHARD SHINDELL
