--------------
What is this that I can't see
An icy hand taking hold of me
I am Death, none can excel
I open the door to heaven or hell
O Death, O Death
Won't you spare me over 'til another year
O Death, someone will pray
Please wait to call me another day
The children pray and the preacher preach
But time and mercy are out of your reach
O Death, O Death
Won't you spare me over 'til another year
I'll fix your feet 'til you can't walk
Lock your jaw 'til you can't talk
Close your eyes so you can't see
This very air, come and go with me
O Death, O Death
Won't you spare me over 'til another year
O Death, please consider my age
Please don't take me at this stage
My wealth is all at your command
If you would move your icy hand
O Death, O Death
Won't you spare me over 'til another year - เพลง
This chick rocks. Found her from some video about Congolese mercenaries and all her stuff is just awesome!
Same as you guys. Rhoadies rules!
Ah yes, Roland was a warrior
The same
Roland!
Knee deep in gore.
I've come back to this many times over the last decade. It's my favourite version by far. Superb musician. Thank you.
This one always stays in my mind, ten years later even.
I was about to comment just that ! Same feeling
12 years now and still stands true for me as well.
after all this years i like this version to much, it's my favorite, thanks to much for give us this jewel
Have not watched this in years. Glad I found it again
The best rendition of "O Death" on the Internet. Haunting in both vocals and instrumentals. This is what talent is all about, even the taking of the macabre and making it touch the soul.
This is really something. The drumming gives me chills.
Awesome. Love you Lauren.
It's quite awsome that she can play all those insrtuments so well and sing with such authority. Well done. Two thumbs up Lauren!
I've had this in my head for 11 years
goddamn
I love this Lauren! Great Great Great Great Great!!! keep coming back to listen and watch again...love it!
Wow, thanks this brought back so many memories of my great uncle on my grandmas porch in WV. singing this song.
I've always loved this song. I was lucky enough to have Rising Appalachia play it on request from my birthday. As much as I love them, I like your version more.
This is THE BEST version of the song on TH-cam!!!Well Done Girl!You are freaking AWESOME!!!
why I always keep coming back to this vid.. Simply just full of pure awesomeness?
This young lady is amazing. Love!
you have amazing talent i hope you go far
This is the best version of this song that I ever heard.
I love this SO much. Can't stop listening to it!
A bow across an acoustic AND an electric guitar! Well done!
And finally - after 6 years - this video isn't blocked in Germany anymore. TH-cam signed a licensing fee deal with GEMA.
This is really good. Maybe it's because I love O' brother I feel like this is underrated.
Absolutely wonderful rendition. Best I've heard ....
Awsome...Ive had this song in my head for 3 days now!
That's talent.....and a looker!
something about watching you create music is so sensual..i dont mean that in a creepy way i mean just the way you create your songs and piece it all together and your voice is just damn lovely..not everyone can move your soul and heart and mind with just a song....i may forget about you for awhile but i always come back to your music and am just as amazed as i was the first time i heard it
She is truly unique and has remarkable talent.
Na, that's not creepy bro... I'd hit it and she's a great singer.
Always a thrill to see and hear you!
Thanks for your Great Music!
All this goes on in her head!! AMAZING!!
Can this please be on the Game of Thrones soundtrack, or at least in a future trailer for a new season?! This song and the style in which Lauren performs it would fit so perfectly with the storyline of Game of Thrones. Anyone else agree?
I had to think of Vikings. Would fit there also.
No, I don't agree at all with you. It sounds nothing medieval and, while awesome, it certainly doesn't belong to any of those shows.
If I heard this on the radio, I would shout : "OOOH This is the song that I like!" and turn it louder!
Incredible. Just incredible. That woman has talent to spare.
I still get chills every time...
ooh someone thats done the full lyrics rather than just copying the more popular covers
This makes me want to get ready for a Gun Fight.
You wouldn't win against "Ol Death", fastest gunfighter ever been. Been here since the beginning, and will outfight the rest of the world, lol.
I just stumbled across this and it's my favorite version now.
One of my favorite songs!
Amazing! The verse starting at 2:06 comes through SO strong. I LOVE it. My only suggestion would be to gradually ramp up the backup vocals over the last 30 seconds before cutting out with that final chilling note.
She always looks like she's unsure about something when she's singing
That's her charm; you always get a nice surprise when she changes direction, kinda like catching a sharp breeze on a tight tack, but she never leaves in you in irons.
She looks like she really concentrating to me
You're astounding to watch and hear! Never change
Many years passd and im still coming back to this song...
Ugh, why didn't the creators of Until Dawn pick you up? Their version is horrible! I literally searched for versions of this song that does a better job than the game and everything I've found so far HAS been better, but your version blows all others out of the water.
duckiezz check out Ralph Stanley's version and tell me what you think
Wonderful!!!!! Awesome!!!!! Moving!!!!!!
Good god this young lady is brilliant!
That voice is going to take over the world... soon, very soon!
My Grandfather used to sing thing song when I was just a pup. Hearing it now brings back such memories. Thank you.

This song is an expression of something older and deeper than the language we have to express it. It's good to see it treated with such care.
Love this.

I couldn't stop watching her sing. Normal I tab out when I listen to music on TH-cam but I couldn't stop watching her mouth. It was mesmerizing.
