- "Unplugged" is the title one of the albums by the Irish band "The Corrs", released in 1999. You can find there this beautiful version of "Little Wing", a song I first heard and loved by Jimi Hendrix, as a teen.
Lyrics:
Well she's walking through the clouds
with a circus mind that's running wild
butterflies and zebras
and moonbeams and fairy tales
that's all she ever thinks about
riding with the wind.
When I'm sad, she comes to me
with a thousand smiles, she gives to me free
it's alright she says it's alright
take anything you want from me, anything
Anything.
Fly on little wing,
it's alright she says it's alright
take anything you want from me, anything
Anything.
Fly on little wing...

Probably the best cover of Little Wing.
Jimi's timing is critical to this song, but it is impossible to duplicate. Imo, Little Wing has to be covered by making it your own. They took that approach and came up with a beautiful arrangement that captured the spirit of the song. Magic!
It's been 23 years, and still I got goosebumps with that guitar. Like, seriously.
Dito🫡
So much talent in one family
Somebody is listening this piece of art in 2020 ?
Felix Rivera me. Amazing
Greatest version ever. Pure perfection
I think a lot of people :)
something hopeful I believe...
Me :) This is the music
ya ... greetings from indonesia
I had to confess that I am a bit of a purist regarding covers of this Hendrix song by others than him. But as stated by others so precisely, the Corrs made this song their own. Splendid cover, I think Jimi would be proud.
Been a fan since 1999 and no one can top their music..even today...
Absolutely beautiful interpretation of a classic. I will return to listen again...and again...and again
The most underrated, yet magical, cover of Little Wing that ever exist. Coming from a guitarist
absolutely true
Agreed.
P
Yes!
Yes... An unknown guitarist
Flawless performance. I love this rendition of Little Wing.
I still fall in love with this Irish act after 20 years
We played this at my friend's funeral she passed having cancer she was so young in her 3o's miss you Katrina 😘 💔 😢 ❤
God Bless you….
Toujours la même émotion en écoutant ce morceau ♥
I still get goosebumps with any decent cover of LITTLE WING. It`s 2021 now and i`m 60
Excellent
@@erik15377 Better to get goosebumps than wrinkles. 😉

From the heaven, Jimi listen happy this cover...
THE best acoustic cover of Little Wing ever made! That slide solo Anto plays on the Dobro is... amazing...
Maybe. Monte Montgomery's cover is also something to consider.
Check Gosia Kunc from polish idol
La plus belle chanson d'amour de tout le monde et de tous les temps!
Merci beaucoup a Jimi et a tous ceux qui l'ont joue comme musique du ciel
Brings me back to 1999.. ❤️
Unbelievable cover. All involved deserve the praise and my god that guitarist captured jimi's style
Thanks for being such a beautiful and talented family, Sharon's running the Fairy Reel brought me tear's, Much Love to you All
OMFG. Celtic Soul. More feeling in in 4+ minutes than most artists can generate in a lifetime. And on top of it, the ladies look like Super Models. Hyperbole? Watch it again.
Totally agree. The violinist looks like she’s about to sleep.
Jimi would have tears in the eyes hearing this one...
This is a really beautiful interpretation of Little Wing
Less than 5000 likes?? Only 750000 clicks?? Something is wrong considering that they are one of the most talented families I know. Just the number of instruments they play is amazing, never mind what they achieve with them. God bless you all.
Well - think of it this way - 750,000 views would be like ? 15 stadiums full of people which is a ton of people
The best DVD I can call my own! A true masterpiece! Still listening to it in 2021 regularly. So sad there is no HD remaster 😢 best wishes from Germany
I've always loved this...its always had such a truely magical effect on me....listening to this..... im soaring on dragons wings....and im flying over the waves crashing against the rockface...😍😍 such a magical song to me...
Their mum & dad must have been the best looking people in Ireland plus they had a bit of music in them. 😍
Super talented musicians and all so good looking. 🥀🥀🥀🥀
Danke,das ist sooo schön. Geht direkt ins Herz.❤
A truly different version of a classic song from a fantastic Jimi Hendrix, but this I like as much, so floaty
It’s more like Sting’s version.
hENDRIX WAS A LUNAR GOD
Watching this again in 2021. BEAUTIFUL cover. Love the music. Love the band. ♥♥
05/07/2021,,,beautiful,,i believe Mr.Jimi would have tears on His cheeks listening to this,,,,,,✌🏼
Une des plus jolie cover !! Merci The Corrs!!! Love it!!!!
SO clean song, and sooo great solo cover! 2022 and still listening with love to these guys!
Greatest version ever it is really like listening to a piece of art and I hate it that this band never really got all the recognition that they deserve and there is some real crap on the radio today getting Grammy's left and right . And I think you guys know who I'm talking about lol
No LOL. We know - Anto's solo for example.
lol en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Corrs
they were plenty successful and still work now, at least were up to 2017
Are you drunk? The Corrs received massive recognition by the fans, radio stations, record stores, journalists, musicians ect ect ect. Stupid comment!
@@joe22589 Yeah Talk on Corners was a worldwide bestseller.
@@joe22589 An unnecessary spiteful comment. Are you jealous?
A beautiful rendition of a wonderful song.
Jan, if you combine this with their cover of the REM classic "Everybody Hurts" ...surely they should do more covers ?
This is heavenly music from the Corrs. I am absolutely speechless. They have so much talent and yet completely underrated. May you continue to produce great music!
Great guitar solo. Gorgeous vocal
Beautiful.
Awesome cover!
I had no idea this was a Jimmy Hendrix cover. They made this their own and paid homage at the same time. It's a shame they didn't get the recoqnition they deserved. They were a genuinely talented group that didn't need to hide behind an "X Factor" make over! Amazing!!! Blesings and respect to them whatever they're doing now.
I mean seriously...? You didn't? I actually love your reaction! That's great!
Sorry to say but the Hendrix original version is wayyyy better!
@@Tenskwatawa4U I know, shame on me😬🤦🏾 my only excuse, is that I was born in 1970😂...that's all I got 🤷🏾♂️😂
@@TheMentalblockrock Er, no need to be sorry. That's your opinion.
All I said is that they made the song their own whilst paying homage to the original.
@@RtripleA They just strummed acoustics and made some nice harmonies and missed all the elements and subtleties, drama and dynamics that made the Hendrix original so great and atmospheric and special. I've seen local bar-band musicians do a much better version. Sorry, not my opinion, but musically analyse what they are doing, even on a superficial level and you will see its quite a terrible, humdrum and mediocre cover. I'd urge everyone who has seen this check the Hendrix original that is WAYYY superior.....
Dam that was awesome 😎❤the guitar chords 😮and the flute sound 😢❤made me travel to my roots being half Irish and Maori , beautiful tribute to Hendrix 😊❤❤❤❤
Simplesmente LINDAS. São Paulo/S.P/Brasil. 2024.
This solo is great !!!
Just a great Band..2024 and ever..❤
Soy de Argentina vivo en un lugar bastante parecido a irlanda( ushuaia tierra del fuego) ojala pudiera.mostrarles donde estoy ahora y escuchando ésto no tiene punto de comparación esta.maravillosa version que me pone los pelos de punta como si fuera la.primera vez .es natural que al oirla salga un liquido de.los.ojos?.
Lovely Mario ☺️
(even by a translate machine...)
Prstě krásný ségry a hudba taky!!!
this version is awesome
"Little Wing"
Now she's walking through the clouds
With a circus mind
That's running wild
Butterflies and zebras
And moonbeams and fairytales
All she ever thinks about is riding with the wind...
When I'm sad she comes to me
With a thousand smiles
She gives to me, free
It's alright, it's alright' she says
Take anything you want from me
Anything
Now she's walking through the clouds
With a circus mind
That's running wild
Butterflies and zebras
And moonbeams and fairytales
All she ever thinks about is riding with the wind...
When I'm sad she comes to me
With a thousand smiles
She gives to me free
It's alright, it's alright' she says
Take anything you want from me
Anything
Fly Little Wing... Yeah, Yeah...
[Guitar solo]
Fly Little Wing...
I want her to fly
[Fade out]
This band so awesome
I miss the past century sometimes...
Never too late... Past century's music is full of diamonds, global and to all kinds of music... New forms, new sounds, new approaches in relation to society, and, also, about the expression of human emotions... Especially 60', the decade of miracles. :)
BEAUTIFUL......LIKE.
Personally my favourite cover of the song. Written the year I was born and my current license plate. :)
Penny Wright: When I saw Jimi play this song it was one of his longest jams of the night, wonderful.
@@johnwattdotca must have been amazing!!
@@pennywright1111: Let me tell you something I've never seen described anywhere. Jimi didn't have any speakers onstage. They were all up in the arena stands up top, around the arena, not seeing them. Two sets of guitar and bass amps on both sides of the drums. Jimi had two mike facing out sideways, singing into one or the other or both. Two tables with roadies in front of the stage, two flat-beds end to end, each had half the wires coming from the stage and half the wires going up to the speakers, Each roadie sat in front of what looked like a copper album. When Jimi waved his guitar to the right the roadies turned the copper albums and the sound moved to the right. I wish I had more room here. When Little Wing flew away everyone was staring up at the rafters. Waves came at you, sound moved around, not like you were stereo or quadraphonic, everything atmospheric and moving in every way. It was hypnotizing. Jimi said he was standing in the center of his axis of sound and explained why the seats were arranged in sections for listeners. He was very scientific, a total surprise. No-one else has ever done as much and sounded so inspiring. It made me leave a university scholarship and college bursary behind to get a factory job to buy the same equipment. I went with a 16 year old friend after his parents asked me to go with him so he wasn't alone in Toronto. They ordered the most expensive tickets, $5.50, sitting fifty feet away from the middle of the stage.
@@johnwattdotca the way that you just described that gives me an incredible idea of what it must have been like. Well done! Definitely a musical genius!
@@pennywright1111: Jimi was a U.S.A.F. radar technician. He hired an English electrical inventor to transform radar technology for guitar amplifiers, having the first phase shifter, flanger, forever echo and other effects. The Stratocaster had individual, two-way bridges for each string, the invention that let you plug a Strat into an oscilloscope, what TV repairmen used to tune TV frequencies, what allowed Jimi to get the most out of effects and have so many studio over-dubs, and that was using tapes, not even analog. When the C.I.A. asked Magnavox to built the first two twelve-track tape recorders in the world, they gave Jimi one. You can see why Jimi struggled with a right-handed Strat standing up onstage just to play one. That created scientific tuning, everything else now tempered tuning. I'm left-handed. Jimi gave me a reason to try harder myself. He did everything he could to put your head through, including being very scientific and talking about science fiction. When home entertainment units had stereo demonstration records with trains and jets going side to side, Jimi was all-around sound. However, I hope you are stock-piling food.
almost makes me want to cry.. Beautiful rendition❤️
😻 un de mes groupes préférés.
Miaow chadorreeee....
Beautiful 🥰
Look at the magic on minutes 2:45 starts from there...yes overthere....absolutely masterclass
God Bless the Corr sisters!

Only a few chords!
So hauntingly sad 😢😭

R.I.P. JIMMY HENDRIX AND STEVIE RAY VAUGHAN😢😢😢

una de mis top canciones de todos los tiempos deberia tener millones de likes
I collect covers of Little Wing. first I've heard of this one. definitely unique. it's going in the file.....,
This is masterful. We have the DVD - there's nothing like it.
this is a hendrix cover that i can only associate when she starts to sing . Hoooowwwww
I used to have the cassette tape of this unplugged album in 2000, very love their song.
Saw this life ^^
Class ❤️
Lovely version
Bravo.
Anto Drennan played one of the best, soulfull and melodic solo i've ever heard on the thousand of little wings solos out there
Most of the solos are pointless noodling
@@joe22589 smooth guitarist but yeah, almost jazz noodling at times which seems to stall the tune.
Thank you Jimi.
Nice, enjoy the wistful, sotto voce take on this
sublime
Love her personality.great person
Who thinks Jimmy would of liked this version
Jim I would have loved it, I think. He was so dedicated to art and beauty that had a profound sense of appreciation for great music such as this
A reporter once asked Mr. Hendrix if he put a spell on his "white" band mates. Casually he replied that they put a spell on him as were all brothers here. As a military vet Mr. Hendrix undoubtedly didn't see color, only his fellow man. And we have God to thank for that. Amen.
Jimmy would fall in deep sleep . Its boring
Permit me, as an Irish person, to tell a different story about Jimi Hendrix. As he was walking off stage at Woodstock, a reporter asked him "Mr. Hendrix , what is it like to be the greatest guitarist in the world ?". Hendrix replied ..."I don't know, ask Rory Gallagher" follow the Irish legend
awesome i loved
I LOVE this song.
Beautiful
The best cover of "Little wing" with Sting's version.
Lindo demais 🇧🇷😊✋💜🤝🙌💚🙏❤️🎈
Best performance!!!
That guitat solo !! Win win .
I love them and that's it!
