After many requests, I decided to cover this song, that must be one the best songs ever written!
Lyrics
The long and winding road
That leads to your door
Will never disappear
I've seen that road before
It always leads me here
Lead me to you door
The wild and windy night
That the rain washed away
Has left a pool of tears
Crying for the day
Why leave me standing here?
Let me know the way
Many times I've been alone
And many times I've cried
Anyway, you'll never know
The many ways I've tried
And still they lead me back
To the long winding road
You left me standing here
A long, long time ago
Don't keep me waiting here
Lead me to your door
But still they lead me back
To the long winding road
You left me standing here
A long, long time ago
Don't keep me waiting here
Lead me to your door
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Thanks for all the wonderful comments! I read them all and want everyone to know how much I appreciate it! ❤

[@g1967]

You are a bright shining star in our troubled world...you give us a chance to escape & smile !!!

[@juanricardorodriguez7969]

Beautiful song, with your voice this song is more beautiful

[@bradtaggart5509]

My dearest Emily, you always make it easy to compliment you. You’re a beautiful soul, and you have joy that shines out on everyone from inside you. I have told you before that you’re the sunlight in my universe like the Clapton song mentioned, and I believe you are that to a lot of your fans. Personally, I couldn’t imagine a day without you in it, and your music filling it. 💕♾🌹

[@whisperingeagle]

I must be truthful Emily. I look forward to getting a reply or a heart. I don't know how you find the time energy to reply to all that loves you. I picked up that song every breath you take to perform with my band. It took me two weeks just to keep the lyrics straight cause their easy to get mixed up. Youv,e had some great inspiration from the beginning.that studio and those supporting you. Pretty clear you work hard and appreciate deeply their support . You are an amazing person truly

[@mikefrancis4476]

Most welcome⭐

[@DREAM284]

At 84, here in the UK, I am fortunate to remember, clearly, when The Beatles arrived, and I still wonder at all of their music. This song, and your version is just beautiful, what a wonderful way to start the day. Your other “covers”, excellent too, with perfect production, really well done, thank you.

[@normmarples3936]

The covers I think the original artists would all totally approve of. On this one Paul wanted it the way he made it - pure and simple - just the way you sang it Emily. I'll be following your musical posts forever. I can't wait to hear what you do next. This - like everything you do - is beautiful. I was thinking about how the world felt about the pure sounds of Karen Carpenter - and Linda Ronstadt when I was your age. You are on that level.

[@yeljopm]

This is what McCartney always wanted for his song. You play it so beautifully, without strings and chorus. It's amazing. Standing ovation

[@chrisbjork1093]

100% agree! I've been a huge fan of the Beatles for nearly 50 years and for decades I've hated this song because of Phil Spector's lush orchestration. Thanks to stripped down versions like this, it has become one of my absolute favorite Beatles song. Right up there with In My Life. Absolutely beautiful!

[@ralphibsen1302]

I didn’t think that anyone could match the way Paul sang that song, it is So beautiful. You have done that. Thank you

[@tjvanpopta]

This song is 52 years old. Only something that good can live through the years. That was Lovely Emily.

[@beegee2718]

My gosh Emily,just beautiful.Thank You so much.

[@pauljackson8139]

I can only wonder at how much work and hours you have put behind constructing your outstanding music. Congratulations on another masterpiece.

[@EmilyLinge]

It's my pleasure!

[@garyr1522]

As others have said, it's the beautiful simplicity that makes it. No attempt to over sing or put in unnecessary fills. Great song and absolutely lovely performance.

[@andrewbrennan7291]

Paul would love this. It's brilliant.

[@BirdYoumans]

As a lifelong musician myself, I knew you were special the first 30 seconds of the first song I heard you do a couple weeks or so ago which I think was Whiter Shade of Pale. And the more I listen, the more I know I was right. There are people who play and sing music, but there are some that ARE music. We know each other immediately. I'm sitting here writing this with a lump in my throat after what I just heard. Again. You were put here to make people happy and to move them emotionally. What you have cannot be taught. The scary part is, you will get better and better and better. Stay humble and love people. You are special. You were put here for a purpose.

[@Susi31954]

😅

[@frankcastle5294]

Unless you're musically inclined and have the skills to do it...people have absolutely no idea how incredibly difficult it is to simultaneously play and sing. This is a wonderful rendition and your voice is beautiful. Greetings from Southern PA.

[@itsme-le1bg]

Wish I could play this for Sir Paul, just to see the smile on his face. Beautiful.

[@elvandylis867]

I'm thrilled that you've covered this amazing song Emily, and so beautifully!! Your singing and piano accompaniment is just Wonderful!!

[@riverrocanrroll]

I am a big fan of The Beatles and I can say that this version of the song is the best I have ever heard.

[@movierun]

You stay VERY true to the originals of the songs you cover, and yet you still have your own voice! That is the hallmark of a true musician. Bravo!

[@ErikMCMLXV]

I picture Paul behind you leaning against the wall mouthing the words as you sing it, being happy and proud knowing that his music is being kept alive and carried across generations.

[@Yaketyyak21]

My favourite McCartney song,beautifully sung.

[@juderider5326]

Happy day to you. Hope you know how much you touch so many people with your voice not to mention the Piano

[@freddyvlachos9732]

This is the most Beautiful performance Emily has has ever done. One of those days that her living instrument has found it's perfect set of conditions coupled with her flawless piano talents! And her note formation and duration without equal. Thank You Emily I love everything about this song and your masterful handling and production! Bravo!!!

[@douglaskaye1395]

Awesome

[@bradtaggart5509]

Hi Freddy, I find it impossible for me to choose Emily’s most beautiful performance, because every single thing she does is just so damn good. Perfection. She has brought me to tears so many times with her performances that I come to listen to her new song with the complete expectation of tears. Usually, they are because her performance is just so perfect, but I also always feel all of her emotions that she puts into every song. I hear it in her voice, I see it on her face, and I sense it in her soft and deliberate touch on the piano keys. The other thing too is her mum who works the lighting and cameras. She is a pro, and always makes Em shine.

[@brunosacoda3128]

An angel singing and playing my favorite Beatles song

[@signs799]

Paul McCartney will be proud of you !

[@BegToDiffer99]

This is why we love KZbin. Her subtle cord substitutions were amazing.

[@donlarge282]

Just beautiful! What a young talent she is.

[@marcos9059]

I Will listen to this 1000x , amazing …

[@douglasdegraff8335]

Once again Emily, you've knocked it out of the park. I'll be 67 on 3/24 and I'll never forget the feeling I had when I first heard this song. It's one of the most beautiful songs ever composed and I remember I had a sad feeling that The Beatles were soon to dissipate, we got one more album from them thankfully, but this song was and is absolutely beautifully done by you. Your still picking the Great ones! Keep up the monumental work and your gift you share with us. Doug, still, in Green Bay, WI

[@nelsonnotarte6366]

Thank you Emily… my favorite Beatle song… reminds me of my parents… and that one special person I lost…

Word on the street has always been "never cover the Beatles", except for you Emily, continue on ! ❤

Emily's Soft, melodious and engaging singing performance, much enjoyable for me, a lonely old man.

[@rascalhusky8129]

Nothing like the Beatles. Brings back so many good memories 😌.

[@Quintessence.]

Emily: in an era when so many "over-style" songs with silly flourishes and weirdness, your marvelous voice is truly lovely and refreshing. Clear pitch and pure tonal quality. Simply beautiful. Keep doing what you do. Kudos and compliments. Grow and mature at your own time and pace. Embrace your talent and artistry. Love and respect...Emily Linge.

[@Teri_Berk]

Yep, just agree.

[@peterzang]

My sentiments. I begged her: Don’t lose the beautiful simplicity of your voice. It takes courage to be simple

[@billenglish6352]

Talent beyond measure and a blessing to us all.

[@SecularSpinach]

Breathtaking! In 2010 I saw McCartney do this song from the 7th row... Now this is the only cover on that same existential plane -- BRAVO!

[@ธนกฤตดิศโยธิน]

You've got talent Emily. Thanks for making people happy.

[@mikeduncan3023]

I’ve been patiently waiting for this. I think one of Paul’s greatest compositions. Beautifully interpreted. So much to congratulate you for right now. 80K subs, 1M views on Whiter Shade of Pale which you performed amazingly. All the best to you and you’re just getting started. ❤️

2 million on the CCR song. Impressive

[@Geopholus]

Every time you recreate a classic song,.. I realize you have a really rare talent. You do them straight, and with as much natural feeling as the original creator. I also Love Your own original songs. I think You are a once in a century kind of phenomenon. Keep writing and keep doing some more of the great songs other people have created... i think i will enjoy every minute of it! On this one, Phil Specter may have come close to destroying it, but You have certainly brought it back from the brink, and made it bright and shiny again. I think Sir Paul will be delighted to hear what You have done.

[@Nikua13]

Thanks for the treat! God bless and keep you and your family.
