I've been in love with the Billy Bragg and Wilco version of this for years and years. I never went looking to hear anyone else sing and play it. Tonight, this autoplayed from the suggestions here on YT while I was busy. it stopped me in my tracks. It's perfect. I love her singing this, and I am a little sad that his has existed for so many years and I just learned of it tonight.

Her interpretation is spot on. The beat, rhythm, variation, etc, perfect.

I have heard many arrangements, with as many singers, of this old turn of the century ballad, almost a dirge, even. I remember as a child in Texas hearing this song sung by the Sons of the Pioneers and other local Texas Gulf Coast entertainers, but this is the best I've ever heard. Thank you, Ms. Cantrell and the other musicians in this video.

She's playing at the Hopewell theater next week, a small funky theater near my town that books obscure acts, lecturers, and art movies. Came to KZbin to check her out. I'm impressed and I'm going to go to the show next week.

If I were to have a funeral service, which I won't . . . what's the point? But if I did, I would take pleasure if this song were sung by pretty and sweet Laura. Such a wonderful voice and talent. I will never tire listening to this song. Forgive me, Loie, but I see Dan carefully tending his beloved rose garden for you. Just something in my heart and soul I respectfully share as well as my undying respect and love for you.

Is Laura related to great Aussie singer Lana Cantrell who migrated to the US at the peak of her career in the late 60s.Lana was awarded and Order of Australia. I see a likeness.

didn't know Wilco's cover (now I do thaks to youtube), I like them playing it 'cause this is a great song, but I like Laura's cover much more, maybe cause it was included in such a wondeful record.

I suppose this is a matter of taste, but I found the Gibb/Skaggs version inappropriately upbeat for the subject matter and far prefer Laura's interpretation, although I agree this particular performance is off. A bad day at the office. I'd suggest listening to her studio version.
