This must be according to Plato: The good, the beautiful and the true. Deeply moving in purity.

A wonderful sound. This stands proud alongside Dick Gaughan's version for me.

👍

[@patobrien6364]

No thanks. This doesn't have the passion and grit of the Union performance. THAT was heartfelt & vocally so sweet. A moment

[@paulhorton5612]

True but that piano... I can't make up my mind - I keep flitting between the two. But I agree her voice was on top form at the Union.

[@josefinagarza241]

The violins accompanying at the union,but certainly her voice❤

[@ianyoung7077]

Lovely tribute to Big Dick here. His guitar part becoming the piano motif was slick 😂
