    This song is so profound that it should become an anthem for harmony. This is a brilliant version. She watches us from a distance now.

    That was so worth it, even with the nasty cut near the end. Singing - no, growling - to the Irish about not being able to comprehend the purpose of war. Love Nanci deeply.

They're in ...and some probably haven't heard real Texan before only Hollywood posers ;-| Me aka The Hick From Texas.

      That’s exactly what’s happening here, I remember the absolute love that Ireland had for Nancy Griffith at that time and how big a hit From a Distance was. A discerning audience n thrall is what you’re witnessing.
      RIP Nancy, what a beautiful voice.

    From a distance
    Julie Gold
    The world looks blue and green
    And the snow capped mountains white
    From a distance
    The ocean meets the stream
    And the eagle takes to flight
    From a distance
    There is harmony
    And it echoes through the land
    It's the voice of hope
    It's the voice of peace
    It's the voice of every man
    From a distance
    We all have enough
    And no one is in need
    And there are no guns,
    No bombs, and no disease
    No hungry mouths to feed
    From a distance
    We are instruments
    Marching in a common band
    Playing songs of hope
    Playing songs of peace
    They are the songs of every man
    God is watching us
    God is watching us
    God is watching us
    From a distance
    From a distance
    You look like my friend
    Even though we are at war
    From a distance
    I just cannot comprehend
    What all this fighting's for
    From a distance
    There is harmony
    And it echoes through the land
    And it's the hope of hopes
    It's the love of loves
    It's the heart of every man
    It's the hope of hopes
    It's the love of loves
    This is the song for every man
    God is watching us
    God is watching us
    God is watching us
    From a distance
    Oh, God is watching us
    God is watching
    God is watching us
    From a distance

    Can Nanci’s group replace this with the full version. This is such a powerful version that the whole version needs to replace this rudely cut version. Txs.

    Unusual to see Nance singing without a guitar in her hand and a backing group around her. Still a beautiful rendition of an Amazing song.
    Did Nanci live in Ireland long?

    • @rpirl
      @rpirl Год назад +1

      I don't think she ever lived here but Ireland was only place that her version was a hit - Irish artists were also aware of her work early on and championed her music. she then collab'ed with some of them e.g. Mary Black, Dolores Keane

    So sad that she died but she couldn't sing to save her life
    Bette Midler's version was way better
