Reina, I am 80 years old and have trouble getting to sleep. I think I have found a cure. Your voice turns me to putty. And your band is terrific too. Please do more of these soft and sweet covers.
That's a real long Time, well done. Our son is now 35 years old and get 3 Kids. The paßt changed us, hair gonna grey, the eyes no more sharp, the bones are sleepy. But we're still together, that's important. A lot of memorys, ups and downs, bot no one I'll missing. Good luck to your wife and you. 💪👏👌
I was stationed in England in the early 1970's..Van the Man was the fav of the British Isles..You two, not only do the tune justice, your honesty takes the song to amazing heights..Thank you both.
When my daughter was born I was there at the hospital. But I had to go to work . I walked in , my wife was there holding her . I walked over and put this song on. We both sort of held her between us and swayed and when Van sang she’s an angel of the first degree my wife burst into tears and said she is an angel . That 27 years ago . She’s still an angel of the first degree. I will never ever forget that . Simply one of the best songs ever written . Thanks for this version .
Way to play guys! I’m still crazy about Toni’s guitar licks. I think what I love most about your music is that it’s just sooooo real. No crazy sound affects or Autotune, you’re the real deal. It just doesn’t get better than that!
So great, all of them but Toni takes it to another level. Watching her adjust her volume as she's playing and changing over to the pick. She's so zoned in and in tune with her guitar yet makes it look so easy and comfortable. My favourite guitarist to listen to and to watch on UA-cam. This is 8 years old.
Such a very lovely arrangement of what is now a 60 year old classic. It is so great to see a new generation of incredibly talented musicians discovering the very best of my generations music, loving it, and making it their own, with joy, skill and love. Thankyou.
Seeing the younger generation embracing the classics from my generation and singing/playing them with such heartfelt soul not only makes me feel good, it gives me hope for the future. I'm hooked, you two make beautiful music 🎶
I realize this performance is a few years old, but this performance adds a level of seriousness I haven't seen in your other performances. It's my favorite of all your performances.
Oh, thank you. Played this in the 1970’s. Long hair, guitar. Nothing close to your beautiful talent. So sweet to listen to so much beautiful music, through your fresh eyes. Did I say, thank you?🙂
I'm blown away by your talent. Listening to your covers is such a positive experience in these troubled times. Got any Mellissa Etheridge, Blackberry Smoke, Paul Brandt, Ray Charles, Corb Lund, and the list goes on. I do believe you ladies could play anything, make it your own, and be true to the original. This old guy has fallen in love with you both!!! Much love and respect. Keep the great songs alive and keep on adding to the human experience with you own music.
Amazing- I have a hard time sleeping and they help me drift off to bed! Thank you so much- beautiful, calming sound and so talented, both Toni and Elle have soulful voices.. guitar work is incredible Toni..
Love this song. First heard it as they rolled credits in Peter Fonda’s award winning film “Yulee’s Gold” about the life trials of a Florida beekeeper who produces Tupelo Honey. This honey is a different kind of pure sweetness. I have some and use it sparingly as it costs $18 for a small container. One neat thing also about it is that as it may sit for a while it does not turn to sugar. The film is a treasure and hard to find but a peek at old Florida and a gritty side of life working the bees. The acting is superb and the theme throughout the movie is haunting. I have it and have never tired of watching it and hearing the song at the end over and over again. I am a fan of movies which pay special attention to details, set, costumes, language, sound, lighting....overall cinematography. This is Gold. Reina del Cid, my hat is off on this fine rendition of a beautiful classic song from the heart.
The thing I love about your voices is it's very natural. It's not a schooled sounding Voice which to me always sounds overly controlled. Your voice is very natural and it's beautiful keep up the good work.
Thanks for doing this song! I used to play and sing this at dances and parties when I was in my early twenties and I enjoyed playing and singing with this song more than anything and loved the calm it put into the crowd. What a song! I only discovered the song in the early eighties and I loved the simplicity and beautiful words and melody.
Going way out on a limb here to tell you I think your version adds another dimension to this song that the original lacked. I hope singing keeps bringing you enough rewards to continue posting/creating. We are lucky to have you
Sounds tremendous! And fits you like a glove, Reina. Flowing with a tranquil vibe that seems to linger ad infinitum. And Toni's solo... dancing atop the melody like a butterfly - impressive ear candy... a dazzling and delicious taste of honey this morning. Rock on, Your Highness...
this takes me back to my college days in the 70's....we were in a record store ready to buy this album when we realized we lost our money...sat down by the bay with my best friend back then thinking we were the loneliest people in the world....lol
A lot of the time when I'm trying to pick up the nuances of a melody I remember well from the old days, I'll find a cover like this one to get a little variation on the themes. That practice is well rewarded here. Really lovely. Thanks, gang.
Isn't it strange and wonderful how music can transcend boundaries of age, gender, race, beauty, "success" etc.? We're all just a bunch of humans digging wonderful music by truly gifted musicians who just get it. Groovy!!
Now y'all know where Chris Stapleton got the idea to do " Tennessee Whiskey " ... I'm not sure but I believe " Tupalo Honey " was written ... before Tennessee Whiskey but I could be wrong about that and it wouldn't be the first time being wrong about a song.. but Reina Del Cid always does an excellent job on any song she sings and I love her voice... she's also easy on the eyes if you get my meaning! 👍👍🤠
You make lovely music.Your own songs are amazing what a talent dou you have,so young and making so many songs.I cannot stop listening to your songs.Sympatic youn people who are very pure.Thank you for that.Hans,I m Dutch but I live in Spain Bye
A talented trio. Richie havens does a live at the bbc version of this song from around 1972. It makes your hairs stand on end. Even him tuning his guitar before singing is stunning.
As “a kid”. as we r all kids: yet we are so old..I must say that you remind me a bit of me..I was, I look back: in my day : there were very few female guitar players and singers: I was born that way…So? I look at you.. And think..GREAT FOR YOU.. and BLESSINGS! 👍😀🙏☮️☮️☮️☮️
That's the way it is with me too. Those small vocal nuances of phrasing and tone give the song its soul and its meaning. Reina seems to have the music in her whole being, and expresses it with not only her voice, but in her every gesture. It's mesmerising.
This has for decades been my favorite song, i sing it to my wife all the time and I absolutely love your easy, perfect delivery. I've just become a big fan
Reina, you and your band has come a long way since the barbie doll girl song and the girl with the blue guitar, it has been amazing to watch. Best wishes to all of you and good luck in your endeavor. Your work gets better everytime I hear something new, and that girl who has accompanied you on guitar for a while now has improved greatly.
I want to see both Reina and Toni when they FIRST started playing...when they were kids!! Like 5 yrs old... Seriously!! Let go a couple of family vids from Christmas!!
I can’t believe I just found you guys. Damn you UA-cam algorithm. I’m always watching acoustic jams/folk/finger style. I love how you compose yourself while singing. Your music is beautiful.
One year while on vacation when my son was just a little guy we hid a Lego R2-D2 in every single photo we took. It's always fun looking back at those pics.
I've been on a kick watching all of your videos and as soon as it started building here the hair on my arms stood right up. Absolutely fantastic. Y'all keep doing what you're doing. Makes the world a brighter place!
Wonderful rendition, I have owned like 6 or 7 of the vinyl Van the Man albums of Tupelo Honey, each time I give one away to someone because they enjoyed the album so much. I have to say "Starting A New Life" is my favorite.
Great heart felt rendition of a great old "Van (the Man)" song. I'm a new follower and I'm absolutely loving your down to earth style of performing music - Peace!
Busy place there Sunday mornings! Band mates and camera person. I really appreciate that your already wonderful talent is augmented by so much well spent effort. Thank you so much. Btw, love Van Morrison's music. Bonus.
Reina, I am 80 years old and have trouble getting to sleep. I think I have found a cure. Your voice turns me to putty. And your band is terrific too. Please do more of these soft and sweet covers.
👍
Blessed
I fell inLove with my wife when she was 17. Now she's 63 and she's still as sweet as Tupelo Honey. Thank you for this memory.
ya'll have been blessed Richard, soul mates right...wishing ya'll more happy tunes and miles for you two...
That's a real long Time, well done.
Our son is now 35 years old and get 3 Kids.
The paßt changed us, hair gonna grey, the eyes no more sharp, the bones are sleepy.
But we're still together, that's important. A lot of memorys, ups and downs, bot no one I'll missing. Good luck to your wife and you. 💪👏👌
@ My dear, you'r speaking from your (bad ?) experience. The story exists also the other way round.
Jj Grey did this song better than Van
God bless you both. 🙏
I was stationed in England in the early 1970's..Van the Man was the fav of the British Isles..You two, not only do the tune justice, your honesty takes the song to amazing heights..Thank you both.

Reina sings and I’m in happy, then Toni plays, wow.
Way to play guys! I’m still crazy about Toni’s guitar licks. I think what I love most about your music is that it’s just sooooo real. No crazy sound affects or Autotune, you’re the real deal. It just doesn’t get better than that!

yes , beautiful interpretation of this amazing song!! listenning , a woman ,living far from me ,comes in my mind
I have listened to much cool things and this is one of them.
Seeing the younger generation embracing the classics from my generation and singing/playing them with such heartfelt soul not only makes me feel good, it gives me hope for the future. I'm hooked, you two make beautiful music 🎶
The rain feels a lot warmer now x
These ladies seem to have fun making videos no matter where they are or how cold it is. That's why it's always so much fun watching their videos.
I realize this performance is a few years old, but this performance adds a level of seriousness I haven't seen in your other performances. It's my favorite of all your performances.
Why would anyone give this a thumbs down? If you don'y like this, you don't like music.
As long as people can make music, there is hope
TheSpiralnotebook Indeed
TheSpiralnotebook 🙏 just great ☕️
🌟
AMEN
Without music or cats life would be a mistake.
THE best version of this song.
Oh, thank you. Played this in the 1970’s. Long hair, guitar. Nothing close to your beautiful talent. So sweet to listen to so much beautiful music, through your fresh eyes. Did I say, thank you?🙂
Beautiful songs make me happy

Super c est du bonheur d entendre cette belle chanson si bien interprété merci
Wish I'd been there for this charming rendition. One of Morrison's best.
Oh My God! You have taken one of the most emotional songs ever and made it even more special. You just moved me to tears!
I see what you did there 'Special' like a special person, got you...!
I like the energy in the song and Reina's charisma, and the quiet ending. Toni plays every cover with such ease. Toni = impressive.
Still beautiful. God bless. Xxx
I used to have hope for young people, but when I hear music like this, I have faith.
I have no idea how many times I've listened to this cover. It's one of my all time favorites.
Amazing..America got talent material
My favorite Van Morrison song! Beautiful.
Amazing- I have a hard time sleeping and they help me drift off to bed! Thank you so much- beautiful, calming sound and so talented, both Toni and Elle have soulful voices.. guitar work is incredible Toni..
Thanks guys so much !! For taking me there with your incredible talent, flawless rendition of one of my favorite songs of all time.
I've come to love this cover way more than the original - I would love to hear you do more Van Morrison!
Real instruments, and talent. Voices that are awesome. What else could I ask 4. Spectacular guys. Thanks for sharing.
Love to listen to these Ladies, Toni you are awesome on the guitar, could listen to you playing all the time. Great song.
Such a great rendition, great job everyone all around - and thanks for sharing this beautiful song with us. And those vocals ...

Reina del Cid, my hat is off on this fine rendition of a beautiful classic song from the heart.
Ulee's Gold is one of my very favorite movies--in the top five for sure.
Van Morrison is from Belfast. Civil war has been an issue here. Bees and the gritty side of "working" them is a fascinating connection to make.
I absolutely love this version. Thank you all for doing it.
The thing I love about your voices is it's very natural. It's not a schooled sounding Voice which to me always sounds overly controlled. Your voice is very natural and it's beautiful keep up the good work.

This version is more understated. Van kind of went over the top.
Sounds tremendous! And fits you like a glove, Reina. Flowing with a tranquil vibe that seems to linger ad infinitum. And Toni's solo... dancing atop the melody like a butterfly - impressive ear candy... a dazzling and delicious taste of honey this morning. Rock on, Your Highness...
I am in love with this song this version. Grateful for this.
this takes me back to my college days in the 70's....we were in a record store ready to buy this album when we realized we lost our money...sat down by the bay with my best friend back then thinking we were the loneliest people in the world....lol
played along with my b-flat blues harp. it worked well. good group, thanks.
Just what I needed this morning. Thank you
What a beautiful voice. So beautiful it gave chills listening. Thanks
A lot of the time when I'm trying to pick up the nuances of a melody I remember well from the old days, I'll find a cover like this one to get a little variation on the themes. That practice is well rewarded here. Really lovely. Thanks, gang.
Isn't it strange and wonderful how music can transcend boundaries of age, gender, race, beauty, "success" etc.? We're all just a bunch of humans digging wonderful music by truly gifted musicians who just get it. Groovy!!
I love this. I love the sci-fi raps but I really am glad I decided to see what was on you UA-cam Chanel. I sing these same songs and I love it!
Thank you to Josh Turner for leading me to your channel.....you are an incredible talent....magical voice and arrangements
same
Your voice is a gift to the world.
Lovely....at moment being played on the river while we barby and chill in England's stifling 22 degrees heat. Thanks again.
Now y'all know where Chris Stapleton got the idea to do " Tennessee Whiskey " ... I'm not sure but I believe " Tupalo Honey " was written ... before Tennessee Whiskey but I could be wrong about that and it wouldn't be the first time being wrong about a song.. but Reina Del Cid always does an excellent job on any song she sings and I love her voice... she's also easy on the eyes if you get my meaning! 👍👍🤠
You make lovely music.Your own songs are amazing what a talent dou you have,so young and making so many songs.I cannot stop listening to your songs.Sympatic youn people who are very pure.Thank you for that.Hans,I m Dutch but I live in Spain Bye
Very difficult to replicate one of the best song performances of all time but it could have done with a few 'she's an angel' s
That was as sweet as a big spoonful of Tupelo Honey. A lovely vibe. Thank you all.
A talented trio. Richie havens does a live at the bbc version of this song from around 1972. It makes your hairs stand on end. Even him tuning his guitar before singing is stunning.
Let's give some love to the bassist!
Tenderly sung and played. Toni I could listen to you play forever, such a perfect balance to Reina's guitar and voice.
I like the sweet baby voice of Reina, specially in that song... From France.
And the music is on top...
A really mellow version of VM's classic. Sweet.
As “a kid”. as we r all kids: yet we are so old..I must say that you remind me a bit of me..I was, I look back: in my day : there were very few female guitar players and singers: I was born that way…So? I look at you.. And think..GREAT FOR YOU.. and BLESSINGS! 👍😀🙏☮️☮️☮️☮️
My second favorite Van tune. You perform it wonderfully. Thank you.
I keep listening to this one over and over . . . your vocals on this are just perfect . . .
That's the way it is with me too. Those small vocal nuances of phrasing and tone give the song its soul and its meaning. Reina seems to have the music in her whole being, and expresses it with not only her voice, but in her every gesture. It's mesmerising.
This has for decades been my favorite song, i sing it to my wife all the time and I absolutely love your easy, perfect delivery. I've just become a big fan
Love these old songs, brings me back to my youth listening to the am station by the Mississippi river with friends.
Thank you
Heard heaps of versions besides Van & this is definitely one of the very, very, best, ever. Excellent treatment & arrangement of it. Huge kudos!
yesss.....Van The Man.....should be proud......fantastic cover....your girl there plays a mean guitar.....
Good job don’t know how you pull out classics from 50 years ago play them so well cheers love the music
Wow that's so good to listen you ! Thanks all for this marvellous song, as good as honey ❤
Awesome job. I sang this for my wife at my 50th. Love it.
Reina, you and your band has come a long way since the barbie doll girl song and the girl with the blue guitar, it has been amazing to watch. Best wishes to all of you and good luck in your endeavor. Your work gets better everytime I hear something new, and that girl who has accompanied you on guitar for a while now has improved greatly.
What a great version of a great song
I love this song, so beautiful. Wonderfully done
God damn Sam, you guys killed it. Stellar cover, faithful, stripped down, spot on vocals.
What a voice. Beautiful
I want to see both Reina and Toni when they FIRST started playing...when they were kids!! Like 5 yrs old...
Seriously!! Let go a couple of family vids from Christmas!!
Sorry. Search Ronny&toni early years
Hi there Tony & Reina! You guys made my Sunday morning. Hope you know how IMPORTANT you are to people. Keep it up!!! Go Go Go !!!
I like it when young people bring great songs to new places and offer something that is not in the original. I love the simple trio here. Good work.
Magnificent! Incidentally, am I seeing a Dunlop tortex 88mm pick in Toni's right hand? It sounds great when Toni handles it.
I can’t believe I just found you guys. Damn you UA-cam algorithm. I’m always watching acoustic jams/folk/finger style. I love how you compose yourself while singing. Your music is beautiful.
You two gals are amazing!!! Love it.
One year while on vacation when my son was just a little guy we hid a Lego R2-D2 in every single photo we took. It's always fun looking back at those pics.
Joy can be elusive. From my perspective it can be more easily experienced through good music. Thank you.
Thats some good stuff . I got a Martin and a Gibson ...Gotta get me a strat and a tele . You guys are really good .
My favorite Reina cover so far. Loved the original too. Thanks.
I have watched a number of your videos now. I am very impressed.
Excellent.
Quite smooth tunes! I do like when you two sing at two voices in Harmony! Truly nice! !
Out there making the world better. Thank you, deeply
I've been on a kick watching all of your videos and as soon as it started building here the hair on my arms stood right up. Absolutely fantastic. Y'all keep doing what you're doing. Makes the world a brighter place!
My older brother does this song as well, well, I guess I should say he used to do this song. He recorded it for us to listen to. Keep on playing
I love this recording so much, I would love to have it on Spotify 🥰🥰🥰
Wonderful rendition, I have owned like 6 or 7 of the vinyl Van the Man albums of Tupelo Honey, each time I give one away to someone because they enjoyed the album so much. I have to say "Starting A New Life" is my favorite.
The further I go back in in the music u've done the more I love y'all. SOOOOO GOOD !!!!!!
Great heart felt rendition of a great old "Van (the Man)" song.
I'm a new follower and I'm absolutely loving your down to earth style of performing music - Peace!
Time well spent, listening to this band...
Great job guys! 😊🎶🎶🎵
A hug from Brazil.
Been watching Reina Del Cid for about a month now and just ran across this video. I have to say, love the song.
Busy place there Sunday mornings! Band mates and camera person. I really appreciate that your already wonderful talent is augmented by so much well spent effort. Thank you so much. Btw, love Van Morrison's music. Bonus.
During the lockdown every day i'm sending good cover versions ive found to the members. This ones now on the list!!
