Please god watch over this beautiful princess of song I still can't process that she's passed she will never be forgotten RIP Nancy I hope you're reading this from a distance
Lovely song ..up there with many other fantastic songs too👍👍👍👍Nanci God Bless you my lovely and rip for a short time before passing through to a higher realm of love and contentment🙏🙏🙏.This world is all fleeting show!..for man's illusion given....amen...
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.
When I first heard Nanci singing Julie Golds song it was a bolt from the one of my favourite songs. Best version ever. Please play it at my wake RIP Nanci
IF ANYONE CAN FIND AND POST THE WHOLE THING I WOULD BE GRATEFUL...oh Paul, the audience is transfixed, mesmerized...they are listening and they may have given her a standing ovation but the video cuts out!!! 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.
There's such power in her voice! Tremendous lyrics and performance. I'll take the 3:23 in the hope some day I see the whole song. Thanks for posting! Stay Safe!
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?
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
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.
amen
God is watching us, and may He bless you, Nancy. RIP.
Rest In Peace Nanci. The world is a poorer place today.
Rest in Peace Nancy ❤
She should have been given best song award for music history or song of the century.
She did not write it
@@bystander1489 But she did record it first.
A song, that went to the core, of endless human suffering, to reveal a moment of soaring, blissful and triumphant peace. RIP

Lovely song ..up there with many other fantastic songs too👍👍👍👍Nanci God Bless you my lovely and rip for a short time before passing through to a higher realm of love and contentment🙏🙏🙏.This world is all fleeting show!..for man's illusion given....amen...
I discovered her in the 1980s. I an blessed to be a big fan of this angel.
I feel the same way. She's a very different person. ANGEL.
she stole our hearts .... and now our hearts are broken
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.
Love the shot of the audience.
What happened to the rest of the song Sweet Nanci was building up there and the video cut.
Rest In Peace Beautiful Nanci Griffith ♥️😪

I will love you forever, darling Nanci.
OH, Bless you Nancy for all you gave us. You stole my heart with 'love at the five and dime' and I have been a fan since and always will be.

I believe this was written by Nanci!
Echoes from my childhood
Beautiful
Such a painful loss. I pray she did not suffer.

Rest in peace nancy
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

This song is also cut off before its time...
She is amazing. Only know her from the Chieftains really beautiful together. Sad it seems they had a major falling out.
what happened that they fell out please
Come join "The Nanci Griffith Group" on Facebook.
Play it to putin
Poor nancy
So sad that she died but she couldn't sing to save her life
Bette Midler's version was way better
