Can see how proud she is to get to sing this song to the nation in respect to her granny. Makes you love her even more.

[@TheRedirect77]

So beautifully sang, a real loving tribute and you can tell it was sung from the heart. Watching her hold back tears nearly made me cry. What a talent Olivia Dean is, cant wait to see more from her! 💜

Glad I saw this performance, how lovely

[@Rubylove48]

I’m so glad mainstream Britain is discovering Olivia via the bbcs live channel. She is perfect for the intimate redo dings so glad she is suddenly getting more airtime. 🥂❣

Such a beautiful song and an amazing performance, not only from Olivia but from her band. The incorporation of the steelpan drums is a lovely nod to her roots as well. One of my favorite albums of the year.

So happy that you were able to do this ! It was so touching.
it seems as if you are absolutely genuine about the amazing stories told in this song. Not to mention the array of different instruments being played. That in itself added or told another story.
Olivia Deen you never seems to surprise me in every song , you put 💯 into it.
The day I found you and your music , was the day you stuck with me on my playlist. 🎉
Nothing helps more sometimes, than to turn on Olivia Dean.
