This is real. The feeling is so true with sharp tones and notes - clear vocals in perfect tune and sweetness. What a performance!!!! I love it.. Thank you Allison 🙂🥰
Vagueness and clarity as a poet i am forever caught inbetween. I have never heard a cover of this song before. Thank you for this wondrous, egnimatic, bold and definitive interpretation.
Dear Allison The way you play and sing its really bringing me back 38 years ago , I was a teenager very in love at an olden woman , She listen many time to music from Joan Baez , she plays also guitar , a wonderfull time , your performence brings me back in this time . Thank you , Tahsin from the Netherlands
I must have listened to "Diamonds And Rust" (analyzed it, cried to it, obsessed over it, played it on repeat only God knows how many nights until sunrise, etc) close to 100,000 times by Joan Baez, and almost every other singer who has sung it, and by this, I mean that without exaggeration, I know every word, emotion, and nuance of what the song meant to Baez when she first wrote it and sung it. Of course, only Joan Baez could sing it with the weight and meaning of the immersive subject, but that being said, I assure you that Allison Shapira is only second to Baez in putting as much soul into the song as the original. Bravo Allison
One of my indispensable loves... I'm glad you existed in this world and left an indelible mark on our hearts. We love you and your brave heart, Joan Baez! With my best wishes... 🌹
Brilliant interpretation of this classic song, one of my all time favourites. You really capture the vulnerability of this song, that you spoke so perceptively of in your introduction, and also have the lovely guitar part down so well. Thank you.
don't expect anyone to support you. you sing very well, there are always those who are jealous. Go ahead and don't look at them. They will drag you into poverty. Head forward, spread your wings and-uh forward!
Hi Ally , I remember when I first heard you play D&R on TH-cam years ago , all I can say is WOW !! You nailed it , to perfection !! Thanks so much , hope to hear more , Gary.
Hi Ally , it shows your style and technic that have have put a ton of effort in mastering an extreme demanding instrument. So many people think a guitar is so easy , until , they actually try to play one !! I am so amazed at your voice , your sound , it too has a quality of effort behind it as well. Thank you , I truly hope we can hear more of Joan`s songs , done in your way , bravo !! I can not see how Joan would not be proud. Take care , Gary. ( ps: perhaps a video on an upcoming You Now live concert :) ! )
If many people perfectly imitate Joan Baez then they make Baez look like one among many and take away his originality. Please do not imitate, make your own productions, do not deny your souls.
A couple of light years since I heard this remarkable song..
Wow! I’m blown away. So beautiful. If I closed my eyes I’d swear Joan was singing it.
Thank you!
This is real. The feeling is so true with sharp tones and notes - clear vocals in perfect tune and sweetness. What a performance!!!! I love it.. Thank you Allison 🙂🥰

Grazie!
wonderful song
Very beautiful performance! Allison has an amazing voice. And to think that Judas Priest on the local rock station led me here....
Holy Hell! Pretty ballsy Allison , to do a straight up cover of Joan Baez, but you totally kill it. I actually prefer your version. Thankyou!
Thanks!
Wonderful
Very beautiful cover with deep internalization. Really love it.
Thank you!
Magnificent!!
2023 from NZ beautiful cover thank you
Thanks!
Hi Ally , You sang so well! The only thing missing is not enough drama? Lack of painful helplessness!
Brava! Great interpretation! More intense like the origiansl Joanie-version. Could listen eternally
very, very good...
Wow! I had to check my settings to see if I was playing at Normal speed. I love the slightly slower tempo. Thanks.
Wunderschön
Oh WOW
Magnifiquement bien reprise ! Elle diffère de l’original mais en garde la teneur. Bravo !
Perfect.
Ganz großartig!!

Your voice is so much like Joan's voice! But you know that...
Thank you!
Brave Allison.
Thanks!
she’s good.
Thank You TH-cam for option to play videos with speed x1.25 ;)
Do you take requests? There is a great song that Joan Baez covered by Bob Dylan called "North." Just wondering if you could possibly cover that one?
I'll take a look at that one - thank you!
beautiful... she may have been vulnerable but also treacherous
