Elaine Paige sings the well-known classic 'From A Distance' on the National Lottery Show, 1998.
On the show, Elaine sings 'Memory', 'If You Love Me' and 'From A Distance' as well as starting the Lottery draw off. Perhaps one of her best TV appearances of later years, backed by a full orchestra. Marvellous!
Many thanks to David Leck for this.

Elaine was 50 when she sang this and she looks amazing, her vocals were wonderful.
I think what makes Elaine different from other artists is her ability to bring her listeners to an exploration of a song's emotional depth. She makes someone see the connection between her personal experiences and those conveyed in a song. She makes a song truly relevant and alive. Love you, Elaine!
I second that
Of course!
Thanks Jay XX 😘
This is just incredibly beautiful, Elaine Paige at her very best. If god is indeed watching he must be mighty pleased with his creation.
Im here with 2020.
whoever sings this masterpiece song...becomes a legend. Best song of the century or art history...nothing short
I find it a very moving song - so many lines that resonate. It is timeless - I wish it wasn't in some ways, as we see more troubles around the world, and people in fear for their lives. Thinking of the people of Afghanistan. Rest in peace Nanci Griffith whose version I especially love.
What a voice!! Incredible. Thank you Elaine.
This is just a by all means fantastic performance. Glad to listen Elaine staging this song, beautiful !
Give me your honesty and emotion any day over boring emotionless technical perfection.
This gave me goosebumps of the beautiful kind.
I Googled you because I'm a friend of Avi Wisnia and he was just at his summer camp, citing you as his inspiration.
So glad I found you on RUclips, etc., thanks to Avi!
Love it. What a finish!
Huge thanks to David for recording this and our Phantom for digitalising and uploading,LOVE IT!!!!
Incredible
Oh my God, simply amazing, such power, angelic!
2020.
Wonderful.
perfect
Very nice!
PERFECT
Very good! Great singer
Am a big Nanci Griffith fan and am biased towards her version, but Elaine just nails it here!! Not heard this version before! John Barrowman has also covered this and his version is also well worth a listen. A very poignant and relevant song whose lyrics still ring true.
Totally agree with you there. I have seen Nanci Griffith in concert - love her version - rest in peace.
Awesome and thank you
the best version
Well of course she's fucking brilliant. It's Elaine Paige!!!!!
Enchanting !!
Beautiful voice !!!!
Fantastic. Even it is a old song from Bette Middler. Thank You.
It is in the repertoire of Nanci Griffith RIP, and Cliff Richard too.
Sung with passion ♥️
From a distance, 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're 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 (every man)
It's the hope of hopes
It's the love of loves
This is the song for every man
And 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
Love this song vocals are amazing and still are listen to her age 66 if you really love me wow vocals are top there to
She also sang If You Love Me on this very same show. I taped it on VHS but it got lost over the years. Absolutely brilliant performance. Anyone got a link for it please??
They winner in the world is Paige. Chapeau!

Yes, she did. She sang Memory on this show too
Thanxx Susan Boyle to introduce me to Ellaine
live on the lottery show. Only a few people get that privellage. Blondie is the only other one I can think off and that was only lead vocals on about their third time more recently- not in the 90s. Only the best for Elaine Page , it had to be live and she added the long notes that aren't on the cd too.
Do you have- if you love me- from the same show?, I was amazed at her powerful voice and it sent shivers through me.
Your voice is so beautiful powerful n can shift from low to high and hit the note and even in acting you’re so good multiple talent. Versatile you’re gifted ELAINE PAIGE
Agree 💯 her voice is stunning and still is very strong vocals
I feel Julie gould should get most of the credit she wrote the song and performed it very well not saying Nancy Bette and Elaine also did a good job to each and their own
Salah satu pilihanku 👍
2019?.
I love Bette Midler singing this but I think that Elaine's version is better.
Mary Thomson Bette Midler
I agree!
Bette is Better
This should be her song
Lol never, Bette is the original and she’s far superior.

God is watching Gus, indeed.
She's brilliant but Bette Midler better
She sings ok. But NEVER as Bette Midler!
Elaine sings it better I like her version more.
