    I dearly love the other versions of this song sung by other singers, and I have the utmost respect for those singers, but I like this version the best. Catherine MacLellan truly captures the spirit of her father's song.

    *Just found this artist. Was going through her channel / songs. I enjoyed a lot of them. Saw this video and wasn't sure if this was a cover or just another song with the same title. Had to check. Then WOW and WHAM - a couple of tears right from the beginning. THIS song has to be done beautifully like this. Did NOT expect that. Very rare find. Then read her dad wrote this song. I get it now and I'm mind blown...*

  • @grapiken7766

    I've always liked this song. There's something special about its simplicity and innocence and it seems reminiscent of a gentler age.
    Today I looked it up on RUclips and played Anne Murray's version. I always thought this was a happy song, but I'd never really listened to the words before, until now, and after listening to the lyrics properly, I think it's just about one of the saddest songs I've ever heard!
    I wanted to find out if Anne Murray had written this song about something that had happened in her life, but then I found out it was written by a man called Gene MacLellan.
    When I read about him I was impressed and a little awestruck that he had written something so intensely sad, romantic and profound. Then when I learned that he had killed himself in 1995 I was truly shocked.
    This song has taken on a new meaning. In this video you can see it on her face. This song is a big deal. He lives on in this song.

    @malcolmkirk3343 3 года назад +8

    Great version. The daughter of the original writer? Yup! ...I like this slower version -more contemplative, and a bit sorrowful. Anne Murray's rendition, great voice that she had, feels almost joyful, a bit rushed, and ends too suddenly, contrasting with the content of the words.

    • @mingmingandmikki
