[@manfredmeingast]

What a beautiful and unique voice!

[@davidfawkes7902]

Such a lovely person, went through good and bad , can't stop listening to her.

[@cbj063]

All those years gone by and she still sounds the same and looks as beautiful as ever. Stunning oerformance.

[@mattyboyd4045]

This is one of the best songs ever. Genius. And it’s a cover! Marianne is a legend. Wow.

[@johnmoudakis2980]

This is probably her best version of this song. And she looks great. Love that voice.

[@barbaralucero2772]

Listen to Dr. Hook's version.

[@jordanwilchinski8792]

[@cowgirlcookers8315]

This song sung by Marianne Faithful makes me cry tears of sadnes, longing and unived dreams.

This is an incredible performance. And she is still beautiful.

[@redgarden6202]

Einzigartig!! Klasse Frau, geile Stimme!!

[@susanasue]

So Good...👌👌👌

[@kayo7082]

I remember that song so vividly.....we were on vacation in Yugoslavia in 1981....I didn‘t unterstand the lyrics because I was just eleven years old at the time with just one and half year of english at school. But her powerful voice overwhelmed me back than. Years later I did some research to find that masterful song because that was my final vacation with my beloved father ❤️ who died on Christmas that year. Thanks for uploading that version

[@danielelebaillif6823]

A brilliant version of this song.I love her voice.

[@edgarhaupt5537]

In Jugendjahren sehr viel gehört und und 😋 nun sind wir alle alt 😅 und hören ihn wieder 😂 Top 🙋🏼‍♂️ und danke für den Upload ✌🏻

[@RavenAbraxas]

Best version I ever heard from her

[@gmbc1944]

Tout à fait remarquable ! Quelle grande artiste ! Fabuleuse interprétation ! What a wonderful singer, using her voice at her best ! And the guitarist, boy ! he's good !

[@pippilottalill]

Wow, this is Marianne Faithful at her very best. A song that tugs at one's heart-strings. So many once beautiful, celebrated women out there can compare their now so mundane lives to that of Lucy Jordan -

[@boudica3356]

Beautiful, heartbreaking....

[@MarcusKrey]

Fantastic performance , best version i ever heard

[@tweedelideety]

Dieser Song war der Lieblingssong meines Schwagers, der vorletztes Jahr gestorben ist. Viel zu früh.....wie immer........rest in peace my friend.

[@MrEkki10]

Einfach nur Superklasse! Tolle handgemachte Musik!

[@plant1deep4u2]

Beautiful. She really is a good poet/performance artist.

[@plant1deep4u2]

Brilliant. Poignant. Powerful.

[@jimipresley]

Sublime. An achingly beautiful piece of music, so beautifully rendered. The horror of mundanity and ennui, perfectly brought to closure by redemption and triumph. An utterly riveting version.

I LOVE her voice! Heard this song for the first time on Absolutely Fabulous ;-)

It still gives me goose bumps!!!

[@thebarrymann]

[@elisabethzach9533]

Einfach nur schön, dieses Lied und wie es gesungen ist.

[@j.c.b6473]

This is my favorite version. Hauntingly beautiful. 💜

[@sandrajackson319]

beautiful, touching... amazing voice!!!

[@Linus107]

Vielen dank fürs Hochladen! Eine der besten Versionen dieses großartigen, traurigesten aller Lieder die ich kenne! Marianne ist einfach fantastisch!

[@solairekor]

Mic echo is so cool for this song that is dreamlike. Definitely this is the best version. I know, how beautiful she was in her youth, ...still beautiful.

[@jimkenney1305]

Timeless and kick ass class!!

[@bibivo50]

wunderbare frau mit einem sehr schönem lied.danke

[@scopex2749]

no one sings this better - go girl SUPERB

[@sharonatkinson127]

No-one can beat Marianne's version of this song. She captures the absolute desperation of Lucy Jordan, more so than Dr Hook, but that's the second best version with Dennis Locorriere. Maybe it's because it's a woman singing it from the point of view of a woman, I don't know, but Marianne's version gives you goose bumps, it's so realistic and frightening at the same time - frightening that a woman who you would think had it all but, deep down, has lost herself in the life she creates around her husband and children and has lost her sense of "self" but suddenly wakes up to the realisation that they are all off doing their own things and all she can do is clean the house or rearrange the flowers. Don't give up your day job, girls!!!

[@karibusch3690]

Yes, I am a fan of Marianne, she is wonderful

[@piarodidi8598]

Marianne is poignant, but guitarist's rendition is too poor about sound and rhythm. I would have preferred her voice without such musical accompaniment.

[@philipreeder6931]

@@piarodidi8598 No Piaro! While Marianne IS wonderful and desperately poignant, the guitar accompanies her perfectly. It has its own drama and tension. The voice and guitar are a perfect blend. IMO.

[@martinfohrden9491]

ihre super stimme hat sie nicht verloren

[@davidaitken4157]

A very talented artist with along list of great songs from the folk era, also onetime girlfriend of Mick Jagger, a been their done that girl, and still doing it with style, thanks Marianne

[@Abuamina001]

Mashallah. Beautiful. This reminds me of my own Mum so much. Such sacrifice.

[@Zaubermausi10]

[@cliffwheeler7357]

Out of the several performances of this song by Marianne, this one really stands out as her finest. She also looks so elegant and beautiful, a great survivor of all life threw at her in the past.
