      I agree! I listened to so many covers of this song, and they either jazz it up or blues it up, and to me, it's a melancholy song - for me, she does it the very bestist! Love her voice too - wow

    Round like a circle in a spiral, like a wheel within a wheel
    Never ending or beginning on an ever spinning reel
    Like a snowball down a mountain, or a carnival balloon
    Like a carousel that's turning running rings around the moon
    Like a clock whose hands are sweeping past the minutes of its face
    And the world is like an apple whirling silently in space
    Like the circles that you find in the windmills of your mind!
    Like a tunnel that you follow to a tunnel of its own
    Down a hollow to a cavern where the sun has never shone
    Like a door that keeps revolving in a half forgotten dream
    Or the ripples from a pebble someone tosses in a stream
    Like a clock whose hands are sweeping past the minutes of its face
    And the world is like an apple whirling silently in space
    Like the circles that you find in the windmills of your mind!
    Keys that jingle in your pocket, words that jangle in your head
    Why did summer go so quickly, was it something that you said?
    Lovers walking along a shore and leave their footprints in the sand
    Is the sound of distant drumming just the fingers of your hand?
    Pictures hanging in a hallway and the fragment of a song
    Half remembered names and faces, but to whom do they belong?
    When you knew that it was over you were suddenly aware
    That the autumn leaves were turning to the color of her hair!
    Like a circle in a spiral, like a wheel within a wheel
    Never ending or beginning on an ever spinning reel
    As the images unwind, like the circles that you find
    In the windmills of your mind!

    FLY
    To the white clouds
    behind the seven sorrows
    above the coldness of the eyes
    mountains of human suffering
    sea of ​​worries
    all 483 fly
    into the sun's smiles
    with the lightness of dreams
    into the carefreeness of thoughts
    tucked into me
    treasures of the heart
    blood from a drop of blood
    something was born
    from a crystal tear
    wrapped in the magic of the night
    fly
    two words...

    Windmills Of Your Mind"
    (originally by Noel Harrison)
    Round, like a circle in a spiral
    Like a wheel within a wheel
    Never ending or beginning
    On an ever spinning reel
    Like a snowball down a mountain
    Or a carnival balloon
    Like a carousel that's turning
    Running rings around the moon
    Like a clock whose hands are sweeping
    Past the minutes on it's face
    And the world is like an apple
    Whirling silently in space
    Like the circles that you find
    In the windmills of your mind
    Like a tunnel that you follow
    To a tunnel of it's own
    Down a hollow to a cavern
    Where the sun has never shone
    Like a door that keeps revolving
    In a half forgotten dream
    Or the ripples from a pebble
    Someone tosses in a stream
    Like a clock whose hands are sweeping
    Past the minutes on it's face
    And the world is like an apple
    Whirling silently in space
    Like the circles that you find
    In the windmills of your mind
    Keys that jingle in your pocket
    Words that jangle in your head
    Why did summer go so quickly
    Was it something that you said?
    Lovers walking along the shore
    Leave their footprints in the sand
    Was the sound of distant drumming
    Just the fingers of your hand?
    Pictures hanging in a hallway
    And a fragment of this song
    Half remembered names and faces
    But to whom do they belong?
    When you knew that it was over
    Were you suddenly aware
    That the autumn leaves were turning
    To the color of her hair
    Like a circle in a spiral
    Like a wheel within a wheel
    Never ending or beginning
    On an ever spinning reel
    As the images unwind
    Like the circles that you find
    In the windmills of your mind
    Pictures hanging in a hallway
    And the fragment of this song
    Half remembered names and faces
    But to whom do they belong
    When you knew that it was over
    Were you suddenly aware
    That the autumn leaves were turning
    To the color of her hair
    Like a circle in a spiral
    Like a wheel within a wheel
    Never ending or beginning
    On an ever spinning reel
    As the images unwind
    Like the circles that you find
    In the windmills of your mind

    Increadible voice, singing beautifully in tune, very gentle rendition and sensitive interpretation! Wonderful high notes with delicate volume. One or two very minor things that could perhaps be cleaned up in the recording, but which make it even more genuine and authentic. Who could have made it better? What a voice a capella! True artist in a historical moment of beauty-averse crowds (and media). Be faithful to Art that Art will always be faitfhful to you. Because Beauty exists -- and it is needed. Your talent reached us all the way in Brazil. Thanks for sharing this gem with us! Very best regards! In the meantime, go vegan! Claudio

    @stuartbarker1835 4 года назад +2

    I've been searching for my favourite version of this great song for one of my YT playlists and of the multitude that are out there I settled on a shortlist of yours and Alison Moyet's. Both have a similar tempo and are beautifully sung, but I chose yours largely because it's a performance video and has you playing the stripped down piano accompaniment instead of the more common string-based orchestration.
    Michel Legrand's original lyrics were of course in French, and it's curious that that song's title translates as Windmills Of My Heart. I'd like someone to sing the English lyrics slightly altered back to the 1st person perspective, making it Windmills In My Mind, which would focus the song on the mental discombobulation we all feel when needing to make a big life decision.
    BTW, I noticed your awesome cover of Paint It Black on Spotify. Damn shame it's not here on YT.
