    I know how to be critical of musical performance and preparation, and I can assure you this is beautiful genius at work. For those of you who can't handle Colin inviting his very talented wife to join him on stage to present another version of his masterpiece, there is probably nothing I can say that would reduce your hate. This is a gift, wether you accept it or not.

      I totally agree, she is great. What she does is very cool. And hey she is happy, they are doing something they love together. How can that be criticized?

      totally agree. the timing is impecable. they are in sync without looking at each other. I know how difficult that is. Haters gonna hate. I pity them for not seeing and hearing a beautiful, touching and heart-warming performance. I am deeply moved by this performance. this is true genius.

    One thing that is obvious is that her love for him is true and authentic. At the end of the day, what else could you ask for.

  • @stevenhanson6057

    What a phrase “Waiting for my real life to begin.” May everyone realize that’s what you strive for, beautiful. This is an unreal performance by amazing artists.

    When she brushed his hair, I was waiting for some average acoustic and live experience. I was so wrong: they're perfectly in tune with each other, this is better than most studio performances, this is so excellent and professional, I had an eargasm.

    Colin's wife brings a unique and positive energy to this song (IMHO). And Colin's voice has such history and nostalgia to really everything he sings. They tie together very nicely here. The magic of music is made up of moments. This is one. Bravo!

    Saw Colin last year in Boston. I can't think of a more powerful artist that has touched my heart thru music and even comedy at his live shows. The song Maggie actually brings me to tear each time I listen to it.

    I saw him live, touring his Gathering Mercury album, and it was incredible! He was solo and owned the stage for over three hours!
    But I wouldn't mind seeing his wife, and her band, touring with him! Colin Hay IS the definition of modern folk music and I'll buy every album he releases. It took some searching but I managed to get even his out of print stuff; just gotta have it. He's just that damn good! His latest, Next Year People, is as good as anything else he's done and still carries itself without Colin sounding like anything he's done before. Respect!

      I trust record companies as far as I can throw myself, a pack of vultures. Colin Hay has always been one of my favorites, talented singer and a songwriter, quirky, great sense of. humor! Waiting for my real life to begin is one of my all-time favorite songs, poignant and dead-on, I'm sure many people can relate

    The truth is is her pitch is great and so is his.. it's a spiritual thing for both of them. They don't give a shit anymore. I fukin love it. A woman dedicated fully to her man and tapped into his energy fully. Who cares what it looks like listen!

  • @drone_flying_jack
    @drone_flying_jack 3 місяці тому +1

    Seriously !!!! She ruined nothing. What the hell is wrong with people to be critersizing. Its HIS SONG. And HE can sing it however and with whom ever he likes, and he could sing that song anywhere anytime with whoever he likes, and it would still be a bloody awesome song and she only ads more colour to it in every way. You who would say otherwise on here need to go write a song of your own and put up so you can show the world how talented YOU ARE.
    What was that you said????
    Sorry I cant hear you.
    Thats right.
    Pull your bloody heads in.
    It was brilliant.
