As an errant Canadian who hasn't seen his home in many years, I thank you for your sweet rendition of this tune. I Love your soft voice and the way you layer the music!
You know you're listening to top-notch music when you literally cannot understand it, but you think its beautiful anyways. This song is one of those :) Subscribed
I have been long-awaiting your iTunes debut! I've already listened to the three songs at least 50 times each. Obsessed? No, I'd prefer to call it: mesmerized. DFTBA.
Each of your songs really grows on you I feel like. The first time is like: this is okay and then by the 52nd time (how many times I have listened to Permafrost) you are totally obsessed
The part in the lyrics about being in a foreign country, describes well the feeling of being away for canadians studying or working overseas. Great cover!
I love that despite most of your newly found followers probably speak English, your first song afterwards is in your other native language. Go Laurena go!
Seriously, you are one of my favorite artist now! I just love your music SO much! I was so happy when John mentioned how much he loved your videos! You are amazing! :D
Love this song, gives me all sorts of warm Canadian fuzzies. Also makes me feel super special that I can understand it without the translation :) Just bought your songs on itunes and have been listening to them all day!
Is it odd that I didn't even care what it meant? your voice captured me, and I never bothered to see the lyrics till the end. Beautiful, just beautiful.
As a Canadian who has spent the better half of his life traveling, I love this song haha! You have an amazing voice and are insanely talented and I cant wait to see what you have in store for the world further down the road.
You've become my new favorite artist... and I don't even speak french. You're beautiful, and your music is beautiful. Please go on brightening up the world this way.
i bought your EP on itunes, listen to it nonstop. ALBUM PLEASE! you and your music has kinda made me fall in love with canada. anyways thank you for bringing me joy by making sad music... :')
This is a great cover. Congrats on the popularity spike! You really deserve it for each song you've put up (realized that Permafrost is the perfect study song for me XD). MTL Nerdfighters unite! (Or GMA Nerdfighters, whatever :P ) DFTBA
I gotta say, I got really happy when you had the plaid behind you because it's McEwen tartan and that's my mom's maiden name. I'm also Canadian so I already was pretty excited about the video :)
Beautiful song. I've always wished I knew French. My grand-parents speak it fluently and my great grandmother was from Quebec. Even my mother knows a good bit of French, though she's forgotten a lot of it. I really wish they had continued the tradition of speaking French at home and English in school. Hopefully I'll get to take French classes again some day.
J'adore votre musique! C'est une des choses les plus étonnantes que j'ai entendu depuis longtemps. And I love the fact that it helps me practice my French. :)
Thank you so much for posting the lyrics to À Quelqu'un comme moi! It's so hard for me to understand French music that I couldn't even get past the first line. :( But I loved the title and the singing, and now I know what the words are! =)
as someone stuck in a boarding school in NH... this songs speaks to me. It's not the same as being exiled obviously but all I want is to go home and I can't. I Miss montreal so much
i don't know french, but this song really touched me. you have a beautiful voice, and i can't wait to spend some money on your songs, they' re worth it :D

I was thinking of this song of yours today. Every year at some point I remember it and have to listen to it. Then Permafrost. Hope you're well.
I'm watching this on my phone because I'm on a road trip and looking out my window as your music is fed to my ears is truly incredible.
When I see UA-cam vids made my Canadians, it makes me excited.
When I see videos like this it makes me proud. Keep the music coming!
I am obsessed! I've had this song stuck in my head all day today, and yesterday Permafrost was constantly playing in my mind.
As an errant Canadian who hasn't seen his home in many years, I thank you for your sweet rendition of this tune. I Love your soft voice and the way you layer the music!

This song is one of those :)

You have a nice day too, Laurena, and keep making beautiful music.

The song is beautiful. The blanket in the background, on the other hand...
Each of your songs really grows on you I feel like. The first time is like: this is okay and then by the 52nd time (how many times I have listened to Permafrost) you are totally obsessed
Every song is perfection, I literally cannot find one I don't like. Please keep up the work, you'll be famous one day.
The part in the lyrics about being in a foreign country, describes well the feeling of being away for canadians studying or working overseas. Great cover!
I love the wool/books on the keyboard. You never know when such objects will be useful.
Nice job. I could listen to that over and over.
@TomsEyeView The hiss is the sound of the organ pumping air through it's pipes!

I still remember your show in vancouver! wishing you well! I LOVE this song and im gonna wring about it this nanowrimo
Love this song, gives me all sorts of warm Canadian fuzzies. Also makes me feel super special that I can understand it without the translation :) Just bought your songs on itunes and have been listening to them all day!
I was having a horrible day, and your video just being in my sub box cheered me up.... then I actually heard the song and my bad day has disappeared

Beautiful all around. The song, the language, you. Clearly, you remembered to be awesome. Great video!
Is it odd that I didn't even care what it meant? your voice captured me, and I never bothered to see the lyrics till the end. Beautiful, just beautiful.
This is pure poetry... merci Laurena x
Beautiful! I remember singing this song in music class in elementary school.

Very good, thanks for posting! This just built upon the great day I've had being a Canadian Wanderer.

Wonderful. I look forward to more from you in the future! : )
Just bought the EP! So excited!!! :D
Laurena, your voice is freaking beautiful.
I sang this song (a different version) in a folk song festival when I was 10 or 11.
Very pretty version!
You always have the best set-ups in your videos. Simple but cute. :)
A bad start to the day has now been turned around. Beautiful lyrics and voice m'dear! :)
as someone stuck in a boarding school in NH... this songs speaks to me. It's not the same as being exiled obviously but all I want is to go home and I can't. I Miss montreal so much

i had no idea what you were singing but your voice was mesmerising.
I just have to say that for some reason, in this particular video your eyes really stuck out an I love them. (I also love the music.)
This is so beautiful :) Really made my evening!
I don't know how but I managed to figure out you're French is spoken with a Canadian accent, and I'm English. this makes me proud
Beautiful song, well sung and recorded. Sounds so professional.... Hope you make more videos and put out albums...
