Without the Sandy Denny sampling it might have seen a rating of 4 or 5 from me; but...her voice gives me goosebumps. It automatically made me sit up and take notice of this song and bumps it up to 7.

Nothing says "creativity" like an oscillator sweep.
Unless it's sampling an entire vocal track.
I think I'll go listen to some Fairport, the only enjoyable thing here.

Pretty sure it's more than a hint  |

As a long-term Fairport aficionado, this song spooked me the first time I heard it, but after I couple of listens I really love it, especially the orchestration. And it can't be bad if it allows a new generation to hear just what a beautiful voice Sandy had.

Same for me. This sounds kind of like Sandy haunting a video game. |

I'm with you. I did not recogize the Fairport Convention song, but thought she did sound like Sandy.
A few more listens are needed here. |

Love this. I understand about the shock. And thanks for mentioning Fairport Convention. I knew I recognized the voice but was having a hard time placing it - wayyy out of musical context :-)
I like, though. It's got a nice flow and a nice feel. |

This is pretty gimmicky, I like everything about it except the way-too-heavy drum track.
