So many great versions of this song, loreena mckennitt, stick in the wheel, but June's version on the, quercus album is just beautiful,

[@daver8521]

Such a beautiful voice!

[@michaelrickard9890]

Exquisite. A bass earthiness that is a balm.

[@TheJoehussey]

i heard this for the first time from the Quercus album on the radio and was blown away... it was many years since i had heard june tabor. her version of this song is for me the best...snd thar includes the voice squad..sublime.

[@4EyedAnimation]

fabtastic...as is all of Miss Tabor's work

[@padraigoneill9295]

THIS IS BEAUTIFUL BUT HER VERSION OF THE SAME TRACK ON "quercus" is sublime.

[@RobinRowley]

[@tomoole]

[@tubeyou923]

Thanks for uploading this hobo lovin beauty

[@carolineedwards9490]

Simply beautiful

[@oldwobble916]

I recently rediscovered June Tabor, because she's mentioned in a DCI Banks novel by Peter Robinson. I knew JT from long ago, but somehow faded away. This song I know from Planxty and of course I had to listen JT's version strait away.

Touched my soul

[@misterdead6089]

Recognized the song from Bones, thought it was beautiful, but to hear the original song is something ethereal.

[@travisroth670]

Stunning!

When I reach for gold twas brass I found. Oh shit! Story of my life.

[@ProjektErde]

One of the saddest songs I ever know. The version of Andy Irvine / Planxty is a little bit sadder.

...Someday I will find you again...even if there's the end of all ages...I will. 🌹

[@ruffback]

The Cara Dillon version is especially beautiful.

[@cliffjamesmusic]

A beautiful voice, wonderful piano playing. I just wish they were played as solos on separate tracks.

[@bertspeggly4428]

Why, may I ask?

[@cliffjamesmusic]

@@bertspeggly4428 To me they are each beautiful and complete in their own way but encroach on rather than enhance each other, when played together. An analogy might be two beautiful paintings on glass laid upon each other. But as with all things musical, it’s just personal choice.

[@bertspeggly4428]

@@cliffjamesmusic I can understand wanting to hear the voice unaccompanied, but the piano on its own would be meaningless IMHO. BTW Try the Voice Squad's version!

[@fergalmurphy8188]

The piano accompaniment is the basket from which the vocal can shine. It’s a voice in itself and I can understand why someone would want to hear it in its own right. Those fleeting instrumental pieces between verses are a real treasure.

[@erniebeggs]

As Glorious as the Great Great version by Planxty

[@Bruchag]

This on its own would melt your soxs, however, inconceivable as it might seem she outdoes herself on the Quercus Album. If you like this seek Quercus....

[@AdrienMalemprez]

The version on the Quercus album is quite simply a treasure. I feel extremely lucky to have discovered it at such a young age.

[@sandramorey2529]

Another lovely version of a song about the consequences of the men being forced to fight in egypt, and other parts of the ongoing wars between England and the rest of Europe. The wars and consequences continue to go on, breaking up peoples' lives. We Americans picked that up from our British rulers and instead of creating a better world in the new world, we just continue the same old thing in the same old way. Makes beautiful music, tho.

[@christinequinn5355]

Well said. We are a heart breaking species.

[@user-zb7cf3zx1e]

Well said my friend ❤

Story of my life.
