I think someone needs to light a fire under Benni Hemm Hemm....lol.
I mean, there is the slow version and then there is the really, really, really, really slow version....

Canadian Idol girl is good!

That Canadian Idol girl is Elena Juatco, and she performed that incredible version of EMR while Mr. Gordon Lightfoot was in the front rows with his daughter Meredith. The following night she was voted off. I still today cant understand that vote. :confused:

If I was in managing new talents I would have sign her to a record deal right after that performance. She was the best that particular season. But a major part of Canada did not think so... :(

I know what you mean...they never pick my favorite on American Idol.
It's kind of frustrating to watch.

All of those are good.
I love The Kingston Trio. What a beautiful cover of EMR that is.

Eva Cassidy sounds a little like Dido....great voice.

Sorry to have to correct you Nighingale, but I too thought that was Eva Cassidy. But it was corfidian brink- that advise me a while ago that it is actually a girl maybe named Lisa who is doing Eva Cassidy's version of EMR. I believe the great Eva Cassidy is no longer with us. She had an awesome voice. Please do listen to the next video, this is Eva Cassidy, she has the voice of an angel... :)

That was lovely...she really did have the voice of an angel.

It's very sad that she isn't with us any longer.:(

I had never heard of her before so it was easy for me to be confused by the YouTube video heading.

Don't be sorry for correcting me, I don't mind. I have learned a great deal about other artist's music from you and others that post here.
See, now I know I like Eva Cassidy and can look for her music.:)

That's such a great song...

The last vocal group had good harmony.
It would be interesting to know hom many covers of that song there are.
Maybe a few million or so....lol.

Not recorded, must be in the millions for sure ! :biggrin: :)

He's pretty good!
Sounds like an authentic folk singer and plays the guitar pretty well.

I like his backdrop picture.

Re: Early Morning Rain/ Different Singers !
 
He can teach you how to play guitar. He's a great player plays practically all of Gordon Lightfoot songs very well. :) I beleive he has an instuctional video , which I thought was available at Val's Web Site.

But after checking I saw that the guys name is Pete Huttlinger on Val's Site so I may be wrong here. Im sure mentioning Val's Site has brought a smile to her face... :biggrin: www.gordonlightfoot.com

Val if you can confirm this please... Is this the guy who's video I posted, the same instructional guitar video on your Site ?

Re: Early Morning Rain/ Different Singers !
 
I have always thought it looked rather hard to play the guitar...never tried though so I couldn't say if I could learn or not.

I have visited Val's site...it's awesome! She has tons of interesting stuff there and it's one of my favorite places to go.

Re: Early Morning Rain/ Different Singers !
 
Val will be happy to hear that. :)
