Without question one of the finest and most moving songs ever made. I buckle EVERY TIME. It means I cannot listen to it often. Pure emotion and poetry
Eddi Reader is my favorite vocalist of all time. Perfection. I'm glad she got to show off her talents for the TED crowd.
I have LOVED so MUCH, it was a great performance there. I discover this artist Eddi Reader these days and I love her voice and songs!!!! Fantastic!!!
great song about memory and loss
I thank TEDtalks for introducing me to Eddi Reader some years ago; I'm a big fan!
I cant beleive some of the comments you people make if you dont like it then just dont watch instead of making rude horrible comments. She is a great singer.
This is a wonderfully romantic song sung by a real talent.
Love it!
She Weaves heart & glorious tones into the journey of Song!👌🏽
なんら予備知識なく購入したアルバムで頭のこの曲にどハマりしました。
If this song doesn't move your emotions - bad news - you are dead ! Eddi puts so much into every song she sings - beautiful voice. Listen to her sing " Ay waulkin' o with Karen Matheson for an absolute vocal treat. Wonderful artiste.
It is so wonderful to see and hear one of my favorite singers singing one of my favorite songs here. Significant and wonderful ... to me. Thank you.
This is soooooooooooooooo beautiful!!!!

I've been watching TED talks for a long time now and I can tell you this...
Not all TED talks are created equal. This includes all those talks from Nobel Prize winners, Engineers, and Scientists. I've seen plenty of performances on TED that were quite amazing and inspiring. Just because this one didn't make the "cut" for you doesn't mean the performances are any less important to TED than any of the other talks.
me impresiona la sinceridad de la interpretación, tremenda Eddi
Beautiful :)
I somehow missed this song, amazing, it is a shame she and Nevin cannot you work with each other :-(
@jackalrama As a sociologist, I try and interact with tons of different people, and one of the more memorable ones is with a large fellow whose knowledge of Corn (the crop), is quite astounding for a 21 yr old college student. He could tell you all the workings of corn farming, its genetic traits, etc etc; and I loved talking to him about it, even though I have no experience in it.
Her expressions speak more than her words!!! 🥳 There was a time I used to be moved by her this performance. Now when I look at it, it all seems weird in a way and a little bit funny.
Beautiful performance - and yes - this DOES belong in the TED talk arena. (Can't believe some of the comments...)
