| DJ_BellsEye | Posted: Mar 07, 2013 - 12:54 OK, I'm on new ground with RP. This is my 2nd consecutive PSD. Never thought it would happen. I must be in a bad mood. What a schleppy version though. Real sleeper. And Bill- don't know if this is your sense of humor or just coincidence, but after PSD'ing 2 songs in a row, what comes on? The Beatles "We Can Work It Out" came on. You'd have to be a cretin to turn off The Beatles. |
| NeilBlanchard (Greater Boston area, Massachusetts) | Posted: May 23, 2010 - 18:50 I still like 'em, but they have excised all the up-tempo songs from their repertoire — probably because those were written by Annabelle Chvostek of the Firecracker album... Sincerely, Neil |

I do still wish Bill would play the Siberry version just the same. This version is quite touching and I'm definitely enjoying it. But me too, I'm wanting to hear Siberry. |
| GawgaBoy (State of Confusion) | Posted: Jan 17, 2010 - 11:17 I am SO EXCITED.... the Jennys come to Savannah on April 16.... and I have tickets in the second row. I had just discovered them, thanks to Bill and RP, a few days after they played there two years ago. This is WORSE than when I was a kid and waiting for Christmas to get here. Come on April.... hurry up! This song, BTW, is on the "Live at Mauch Chunk Opera House" album. |

Pancreatic cancer really sucks and anyone watching someone die of this disease knows what I am talking about. My mother-in-law is at the end with this crappy disease. I was getting chills too. SO sorry to hear about your MIL. I know 2 people who pancreatic cancer has taken. It's a TERRIBLE thing to watch. I hope for her a quick and pain free release. |

| Tim_in_N_FL (Florida) | Posted: Jul 25, 2009 - 18:27 Lovely (& peace inducing)...no matter who performs it.   |
| ernest3 (USA) | Posted: Jul 12, 2009 - 12:03 I prefer the Jane Siberry/k.d. lang version :-) |

| Whirlpool (Nowhere Important) | Posted: Apr 25, 2009 - 14:42 It seems like every time I tune in this song is on. Please! Give it a rest. |
| jwb | Posted: Apr 25, 2009 - 14:24 Calling all editors... This song would be good if it was about 40 minutes shorter. |
| nimesay (los angeles) | Posted: Apr 21, 2009 - 13:59 3 -> 1 |
| mutepoint | Posted: Apr 21, 2009 - 13:59 I like the k.d. lang duet with Jane Siberry much better myself. They've put more passion in their rendering, IMO. Of course its here on RP, and never played ... |
| big_gare (Cloverdale, BeeCee, Canada) | Posted: Apr 08, 2009 - 09:34 One of my best friends has a 3 year old daughter who has been diagnosed with Ewing's Sarcoma, a potentially fatal form of cancer. She's in treatment at Vancouver's Children's Hospital. She's a wonderful little girl who is too young to have to deal with something like this. Anyway, this song as performed by the Jennys, is my prayer to her. Whatever angels are in the vicinity - please help little Emily to deal with her cancer and help her find the path to a speedy and complete recovery. Everyone else who reads this is welcome to pray for Emily as well. Go to www.CaringBridge.org. emilyfoster ladybugs Thanks to all! :-) |

Curiously, that version is uploaded on RP but has never been actually played. Bill, any chance you'd play it to give folks a chance to compare the two? Personally, having heard both, I think they are both beautiful. |

| dc_zee | Posted: Mar 05, 2009 - 17:19 While I appreciate the Wailin' Jennys and don't blame them one iota for knowing what's worth singing, this can't top the Siberry/KD Lang version. I'm not usually such a mush, but I can rarely stay dry-eyed through the original...the voices build such tragic, beautiful rapture parallel to the lyrics. vaiodon wrote: Had to come back to this today after hearing it last night and downloading from the Jennys' site. It's a beautiful song, beautifully performed. I couldn't find a full play of the Siberry/Lang original but what I heard didn't impress me like the Jennys and I'll look forward to the Until the End of the World movie popping through the letterbox soon. |
| HarrO (Just Down the Hill from Paradise) | Posted: Mar 05, 2009 - 17:16 Love the Jennys. Seen them a few times. This tune is really kind of slow for their normal stuff. Pretty, but lacks the power of a lot of their music. |

I'm curious to know what others things we should do according to him... Gryn, do you have a guide book? |

| silverghost57 (Pennsylvania) | Posted: Feb 17, 2009 - 12:32 See them Live, and well you'll understand. No studio magic for these ladies. Its what you hear its what you get .  |
| kyleminor (San Francisco) | Posted: Feb 10, 2009 - 15:34 Looks like I'm going to have to respecfully disagree with many here: this version is EXCELLENT. I like the Siberry/lang version, too, but this sounds gorgeous. And LIVE to boot. The Jennys have done this song proud. |

| silverghost57 (Pennsylvania) | Posted: Feb 04, 2009 - 07:17 You can play this every day cause there are those that like this much more than others . People should just give it a chance. But not to always to happen > i guess I am bias a little, seen it LIVE |
| rmh3 | Posted: Feb 04, 2009 - 07:13 I really don't like this version and it's getting played on here entirely too often. It's quickly dropping for me from about a 6 to around a 3. |

The jenny's don't do this justice. My favorite version is with KD LANG and Jane. Brandi Carlile and her sister do a great version also. |
