    Kate wrote the song - it was about a friend of the family Davy Steele who died and clearly was an influence when she was young. If you want a real tear-jerker then look up "My Young Man" which she wrote about her ex-miner grandfather who was afflicted by Alzheimers. It was penned from her grandmother's perspective.
    It's what folk does best - melancholy.

    Lay me down gently, lay me down low,
    I fear I am broken, I won't mend I know.
    There's one thing I ask when the stars light the skies -
    Who now will sing me lullabies?
    Oh who now will sing me lullabies?
    In this big world I'm lonely, for I am but small.
    Oh angels in Heaven don't you care for me at all?
    You've heard my heart breaking, for it rang through the skies.
    So why won't you sing me lullabies?
    Oh why won't you sing me lullabies?
    I lay here, I'm weeping, and the stars they have come.
    I lay here not sleeping, now the long night has begun.
    The man in the moon, oh he can't help but cry,
    For there's no one to sing me lullabies.
    No there's no one to sing me lullabies.
    So lay me down gently, oh lay me down low,
    I fear I am broken, I won't mend I know.
    There's one thing I ask, now the stars light the skies -
    Who now will sing me lullabies?
    Oh who now will sing me lullabies?
    Oh, lullabies...
    Who will sing me to sleep?
    Who will sing me to sleep?
    Who will sing me to sleep?

    When I take the final long sleep, I hope someone will play this and those gathered will sing me lullabies!
    God Bless you always Kate.

    Massive fan of Kate, love her to bits as we say in Yorkshire. She is brilliant. Her songs are inspired by her experiences, Her song" My Young Man" is so powerful when you realise it is a song from her grandmothers perspective of her life when her husband was dying. That is very personnal and she does it with dignity and beauty,

    A song about loss, of all sorts. I can't listen to this without a tear in my eye when thinking about all those who I have loved and who have now departed this life, leaving me without lullabies. Painful but Wonderful.

    @USERNAMEfieldempty
    Aww
    She is pretty wonderful, I saw her for the first time on Saturday in Halifax after weeks of preparation and I was in a better world for a few hours. Kate even brought out her cup of tea on set and sung holding it to keep her warm, it was a cold Halifax night but a warm evening of songs and I loved every second.
    I kept thinking how different the result would have been on the silly Euro song event if Kate had turned up representing Barnsley with one of here tunes
