    so sad.. Fotheringay.and a great cover of this... I was lucky to see poor Sandy perform twice around 1974 and like so many others belong to an almost cult like following of "The Lady" for decades now.

    Wonderful rendition, not an easy song to reinterpret. Of course you can't be Sandy or Richard Thompson, but you can still bring it all back to us. You go girl.

    There are certain songs that are so beautiful that any version is equal to the original. Fotheringay is one them. Thank you.

      @@songsofsandydenny Haha, instruments have a way of reminding us how to work with them. When I first picked up my guitar at the beginning of the year after some time off, it gently guided me back into the relationship. Glad your musical friend remembered you!

      @@davidmaddaford930 I agree 100 percent! When it came to the question how to arrange th songs with her lost lyrics, I decided to keep them very simple. No strings, no big band...just an acoustic version with guitar/ piano and some light other instruments. Sandys daughter did the booklet, I hope you get to see it, its a piece of art with Sandy's doodles we dicovered in her diaries :)

    It's a delight to discover another great German singer. (1990 - Ute Lemper performing in 'The Wall'). And with a wonderful empathy with Sandy Denny's work. Carla delivers her mellow sounds most fastidiously, and with delicate finishing due to her expert mouth / lips shaping. I think that Sandy and Carla could have dueted beautifully!

    • @songsofsandydenny
      @songsofsandydenny  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks, dear Ivan! Sometimes I really duet with Sandy, when I learn her phrasing or for example when I overdubbing vocals on "Quiet joys". Maybe when Im good enough Ill do a duet with her, Ill think about it, but I dont want to ruin her performance 😅

      @@songsofsandydenny Glad to hear that there will be many more to come. It is not a question of trying to sound like Sandy Denny. You have your own unique voice and the two versions of Sandy's songs you have posted so far show exquisite taste and sensitivity and in my opinion capture her essence and spirit. Sandy Denny herself was extremely unsure of her own songwriting ability, which of course she had no reason to be.

      Thanks, I can surely hear it! :D Guessing from your name you might be from Germany too? ;) The point is, that I am not allowed to perform for almost two years now. I dont do concerts where I have to exclude or divide people and so the only stage I have (besides the private concerts) is TH-cam. And I never would have thought how much impact not performing has on my stage personality...So thank you again for the nice words, I am thankfull about the opportunity to share Sandys music this way with you all out there and friendly feedback is helpful in many ways!

      Deine Erfahrungen in dieser außergewöhnlichen Zeit, haben wahrscheinlich viele Künstler machen müssen. Mir persönlich gibt es Zeit, auch eigene Songideen zu verwirklichen. Sandy Denny, muss ich zu meiner eigenen Schande eingestehen, kannte ich bis Vorgestern nicht. Bin durch ein ebenfalls wunderschönes Cover von Amy McCann drauf gestoßen. Nun bin ich hier gelandet. Wie sich doch alles auf wundersame Weise fügt. Falls dich das Cover von Amy interessiert, hier der Link:

      Thank you for your reply. I hope you are getting your health back.
      I was really sick late last September and into October and was very weak.
      All I wanted to eat was popsicles and small bowls of soup.
      Gradually got better and am fine now.
      Yes, I enjoy Anne Brigg's music too but just preferred Sandy's cover of this song. Look forward to hearing your cover when you feel up to it.
