    I keep coming back to this over the years as just one of the most purely beautiful performances I've ever seen. It's already a beautiful song, and then add their perfectly matched voices and pure joy in Courtney's eyes and the fatherly pride coming from Billy and this performance is hard to beat.

    I love this video. It's like, every 15 seconds or so, Courtney goes "Ahhhh I'm performing with Billy Bragg," and just looks so happy.

    Billy knows how good Ms Barnett is, and the way he engages and draws her into the performance with eye contact is delightful. Beautifully matched pairing, and Courtney’s little solo demonstrates that underneath all that apparent economy in her style, there’s a lot going on. No pick, either!

  • @stevevanderhorst
    @stevevanderhorst 10 лет назад +24

    Very nice...I loved how the smile came across her face when Billy came in with the harmony...it was like...'wow, this is working!!'. Anyone that can fingerpick a tele has my vote.

    Now that is the proper expression to have when you're singing with Billy fucking Bragg. I hate it when younger artists perform with their idols and try to act like they're cool enough that it's not a big deal. If you're living out your childhood dream, the least you can do is smile a bit.

    I like Courtney's spoken whispery vocal stylings on the EPs (they give the songs an intimate and confidential quality which works well with the lyrics) but this video clip proves she is a very good singer, and I for one hope she utilises it more in future recordings.

      If you haven't, check out his work on the Mermaid Avenue series, in which he collaborated with Wilco to set Woody Guthrie's unpublished lyrics to music. It was part of this amazing treasure trove of lyrics-only songs (if memory serves, somewhere around 600) discovered by Woody's daughter in the attic after her dad passed.

    I wanted to write sth special, but... Dave Porter did it 2 months ago "Courtney's smile is a joy - her whole face lights up". I can add that smiling singing Courtney (0:40) brings a smile to my face even if I'm just reading about so serious thing as cosmos is. I remain one song which is similar during watching:
