The most Beautiful Voice I have ever heard! The Voice of a Angel

[@rubberduck081657]

I had to hear Anita sing this song one more time today! She was sent to earth by God to sing like this!

[@mrhudsons]

Both Anita and Mickey Newberry were so underrated.

[@ianrundle5862]

Anita had a unique and sublime voice. It can truly be described as angelic

[@kerryevans1562]

No one can hold a note like Anita...she is in a league of her own singing in the Angles band now. Greetings from Dublin Ireland brother and sisters

[@billashe2316]

One of the sweetest purist voices ever in Country Music

[@MomoBaileybutt]

Any music? 🙂

[@johnmaguire8689]

Best pipes ever God blessed you dear

[@garydixon9742]

wow lady what a beautiful voice you are so gifted i shocked magnifico

[@johnnymac8680]

This is the best version of 'Sweet Memories' that I have ever heard. God bless you, Anita, you are missed.

[@dennisdesilva2220]

No question, Anita is one of the best ever but you do need to listen to Dawn Sears sing Sweet Memories. I does top Anita's.

[@johnnymac8680]

@@dennisdesilva2220 I will have a listen to Dawn Sears version.

[@snakemansnakes1]

To hear Anita sing again and wander down that memory lane. A voice angelic and so pure heartsease when hearts are sore

[@gerwynevans2729]

I haven't heard this in decades, Brooke Benton released a fine version but Anita Carter's rendition is the heartbreakingly definitive one. Thanks for uploading it.

[@kenowen9564]

Anita's voice will live forever....she is magic to me!!

I BELIEVE SHE HAD THE BEST VOICE OF THE CARTER SISTERS !!!!!!!!!!!! A VERY TALENTED LADY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@dufus2273]

wow, everytime i hear her sing i'm just amazed at that voice.

[@cityzen2717]

THE best version of this sad; her voice lives as does her memory.

[@terencecollins4343]

How could any man hear her voice and see her beautiful face and not fall in love with her? I certainly couldn’t.

[@Ozmulki]

Appalachian Angel! What a voice.

[@miltonmoore5294]

She was the greatest country music "super star" that never was! This recording belongs in the pantheon of the finest vocal performances of all time.

[@MomoBaileybutt]

💯

[@markstaggs1246]

All I can say is man she is the most blessed singer I've ever heard man

My queen of country music!😀

[@johnnymac8680]

Just beautiful from Anita. I wish I could have met her.

[@larrytrotter1075]

Anita Carter's voice singing a great Mickey Newbury song. Enough said, as my words could never due the singer or the song justice. Thanks to Anita and Mickey.

[@terencecollins4343]

My God is there anything more beautiful than the voice of Anita, with looks to match.

[@raultobias3898]

Connie francis and anita carter are the best...

[@WildPhotoShooter]

Wow! That is perfection. Alison Krauss is about the closest we have these days of such a perfect voice.

[@peterdegroot6644]

What a beautiful voice. WOW

Angelic quality voice

[@debrajeanwagoner3520]

Beautiful to hear Her sweet voice again. I'm thrilled to have found this song this morning. What a lovely way to start my day. The Carter family has given me many hours of joy through the years hearing their music.

[@rickryals3684]

Crystal clear voice!

[@saragarratt4397]

Absolutely beautiful - a truly outstanding talent, God Bless x

[@tonylennon7979]

One of the greatest voices in country music.The Carter family have lleft a legacy that will never be equalled.. My late wife loved Johnny Cash. We saw them together three times in Ireland, Their gospel singing was the best I've ever heard. AP Carter always comes across as a sad man , I'm sure he was broken hearted after their marriage break up . Hope they are all reunited in heaven now.

[@tonylupo1764]

Yea this rendition sets the tears flowing!, love Anita ,"The Appalachian Angel" and credit to Mr Newberry for writing such a beautiful song...

no one can match Anita voice, i can't believe 14 dislikes i guess they prefer rap music.

[@miltonmoore5294]

Ruth Boykin: I figured you would be all-in on this one! (I returned to the BeMisty ch and left more leads in my comment to you on the LETTER EDGED in BLACK video, so you may want to return to see them.)

[@dennisnorville224]

Possibly the best rendition of this song that I've ever heard (and it's been done by some greats).

[@mikewatts6813]

I am a great Anita Carter fan and this is a beautiful version but take time to listen to Dawn Sears version and then decide who has done the best version ever recorded. Dawn Sears was an unbelievably great singer and she "owned" this song. She is missed by all that heard her sing.

[@WildPhotoShooter]

@@mikewatts6813 I've heard dawn Sears with the Time Jumpers and she is truly great, powerful voice like Connie Smith.......but Anita just has the edge in my opinion.

[@williamkrejca4641]

@@mikewatts6813 amen!

[@sriiski]

I've allways thought that Joan Baez had a greatest voice on earth, but Anita Carter beats them all. :-D

[@lemanwilson1281]

ANITA AND HER SISTER HELEN WERE MUCH BETTER SINGERS THAN ANY OF THE FOLK SINGERS. EVEN THOUGH THERE WERE SOME VERY GOOD SINGERS FROM THE FOLK ERA NO DOUBT

[@roman14032]

interesting you say that since joan baez WORSHIPS anita carter joan baez LITERALLY EMULATES ANITA CARTER AS CLOSELY AS POSSIBLE AND HAS HER ENTIRE LIFE the only reason shes gotten away with it is few people actually know there IS an anita carter

[@musicola7371]

@@roman14032 Only in your made up fantasy land.

[@ihatedinonuggets]

@@musicola7371 I don't know what evidence Roman has of that, but Joan did say she took inspiration from the Carter Family and Carter Sisters and has recorded many of their songs, so it isn't too far fetched to think she heard of Anita or specifically took inspiration from her

[@musicola7371]

@@ihatedinonuggets Roman has no evidence. You are talking, inspiration. Inspiration is a far far cry from " joan baez WORSHIPS anita carter joan baez LITERALLY EMULATES ANITA CARTER AS CLOSELY AS POSSIBLE AND HAS HER ENTIRE LIFE". That is total crap. You want to talk inspiration, talk inspiration. You can do that without aligning yourself with a pile of crap.

[@kathleensmith8554]

Just beautiful. Thanks for sharing.

[@davidhorrigan2404]

Fell in love with this lady some 50 plus years ago, when I heard heard sing backing on a Johnny Cash record. I was more interested in her, "who is that voice?" than I was in listening to Cash.

[@MomoBaileybutt]

Lucky Johnny Cash!

[@MomoBaileybutt]

Good that you felt that way since they had already been in the business for 30+ years. 🙂👍

[@eviled2006]

Beautiful

[@jd450lh]

What a beautiful voice she had. So strong. Thanks for posting! God Bless, Jeff :)

[@miltonmoore7898]

How she was not promoted into superstardom, primarily by being given great songs like this that went to her rivals, is a mystery to me. For whatever reasons, it just wasn't meant to be. In the great Pantheon of female vocalists, she had some equals, but no superiors! When God was handing out the immortal voices, Anita was among the first in line.

[@cpomnitz213]

I read somewhere that she just loved to sing, but didn't care about the money or being famous, just wanted to hang with the family and sing.

[@peggymarsheck4926]

She saw what, in many cases, happened to super stars.

[@rockhard2654]

man, wow

[@miltonmoore5294]

For me, this version and the one by Brook Benton are equally magnificent! I wish they had recorded a duet!

[@johnsandiford5978]

Nice song,thanks for sharing Hank

[@UdayanGupta62]

When you feature an Anita Carter song, it should be replete with video. Because besides having an angelic voice, she was also damn good looking.

[@RandyWilliams1944]

After Mickey Newbury comes Anita Carter... such a beautiful and haunting voice...regards

[@wilmafogler2552]

awesome

[@peggymarsheck4926]

Anita sang this song many times as a solo on the Johnny Cash road show, accompanying herself on gut string guitar (not on her mother's L5 as pictured on the video). I'm sure she did this studio version the same way, and all in one take.

[@MomoBaileybutt]

Johnny Cash was so fortunate to have this country legend band behind him.

[@willisvanderberg8964]

One of my all time favorite singers. This is a beautiful song but the producer put too much reverb on it. Anita didn't need a lot of effects she had a beautiful voice.
