It's coming on Christmas They're cutting down trees They're putting up reindeer And singing songs of joy and peace Oh I wish I had a river I could skate away on But it don't snow here It stays pretty green I'm going to make a lot of money Then I'm going to quit this crazy scene I wish I had a river I could skate away on I wish I had a river so long I would teach my feet to fly Oh I wish I had a river I could skate away on I made my baby cry He tried hard to help me You know, he put me at ease And he loved me so naughty Made me weak in the knees I wish I had a river I could skate away on I'm so hard to handle I'm selfish and I'm sad Now I've gone and lost the best baby That I ever had Oh I wish I had a river I could skate away on I wish I had a river so long I would teach my feet to fly Oh I wish I had a river I could skate away on I made my baby say goodbye It's coming on Christmas They're cutting down trees They're putting up reindeer And singing songs of joy and peace I wish I had a river I could skate away on
One 0f the worlds greatest but most under-recognised. singers - it take s giant like Herbie to see that in her . And this is better than Joni’s original. Heresy I know but it’s true . The way she sings “ Makes me weak at the knees “ , makes you so.
Dang. I'm 53 and I never thought about having a river before. But, umm, after listening to this song, dang. Won't catch me tryna skate, though. Betcha that.
Not sure if you meant to imply that Tony was on this album, but he'd already been gone a decade by the time this was released. The drummer here is Vinnie Colaiuta .
Never knew this was the unofficial festive season song I need hope on a wing and a payer that if UK government bailout of Europe with a deal or no deal never ruined Xmas 2019?
The absolutely best version of this song ...
Love Corrine, love Joni...Hancock is brilliant...this is magnificent
I love Corinne, I love Herbie ... But I worship Joni. I'm hearing Joni, no matter what ...
It feels so soft, fresh, like a gentle breath of air coming from sea... Wonderful!
Herbie Hancock got me crying 😢
Absolute heaven!
Corinne this is so beautiful. I'm watching this video to confirm how much emotions you put in to this beautiful song of jonni
My bags are packed Herbie, I'm definitely going on this journey with you. ❤
Beautiful combination❤
Brilliant. Brings tears every time.
Such a beautiful collaboration on this tune.
Beautiful! Herbie yet again puts his stamp on a composition!
Beautiful!!! I think its making Joni mitchell cry.
love this woman's
voice, it's oxygen to my brain
Best Christmas song ever.
Lovely.
I love Joni's original version but Corinne's version was a beautiful, adorable choice. This is wonderful.
Her voice is amazing...it feels like home
Truly great song. She sings it so smoothly.
one of Joni Mitchell's greatest poem / songs!
Beautiful piece of music. Beautiful cover ❤❤👍🏾👍🏾
Super. Love the song, singer and her voice.
Hermosa Versión Herbie H. Maestro y Corinne , guau que interpretación. Los escucho todo el tiempo. Gracias
Excellent composition and arrangements. This takes me on a virtual escape. Wonderfully done
Herbie did justice to this song. Beautiful...
I have come back to listen to this again and again....masterful.....xoxo
she sings this beautifully, Wayne Shorter as always amazing and the combo, Herbie a master accompanist and soloist.
2019 and this song still sends chills to my soul...
Herbie plays w the best!!
Ogni volta che ascolto questo brano resto incantato dalla loro bravura. Thanks Corinne. Thank you Herbie. God bless you
Love this song!
never gets old
Haunting. Echoes through my spirit there is such beauty in this timeless music of the spheres.
Nice job Corinne. I really felt that.
There are just no words......
It's coming on Christmas
They're cutting down trees
They're putting up reindeer
And singing songs of joy and peace
Oh I wish I had a river
I could skate away on
But it don't snow here
It stays pretty green
I'm going to make a lot of money
Then I'm going to quit this crazy scene
I wish I had a river
I could skate away on
I wish I had a river so long
I would teach my feet to fly
Oh I wish I had a river
I could skate away on
I made my baby cry
He tried hard to help me
You know, he put me at ease
And he loved me so naughty
Made me weak in the knees
I wish I had a river
I could skate away on
I'm so hard to handle
I'm selfish and I'm sad
Now I've gone and lost the best baby
That I ever had
Oh I wish I had a river
I could skate away on
I wish I had a river so long
I would teach my feet to fly
Oh I wish I had a river
I could skate away on
I made my baby say goodbye
It's coming on Christmas
They're cutting down trees
They're putting up reindeer
And singing songs of joy and peace
I wish I had a river
I could skate away on
Love her
Posted on my Birthday 😌

Soulful genius, Absolutely beautiful

Nice performance,The PAIN is real!
Christmas blues and soul

I don't know Corinne other than this song. She reminds me of Norah Jones, similar voice and phrasing
Girl put your records on
I wish I had a river too

Is this Vinnie Colaiuta on drums? Because it sure sounds like him.
Yes. Well spotted!
Herbie, Wayne Shorter, Tony Williams

Excelente 😄
whats not to love about this?
Muito bom 😄
...there is a god
Is that a flute? Or a sax? Whatever it is, it gives this already beautiful song that haunting quality.
Soprano sax
It's actually a Wayne Shorter ...
There was another version on UA-cam with the same musicians at Abbey Road studio it seems to me. And apparently gone.
Genial, emocionante mil gracias
❤
Good Lord.
Beautiful actually.
SO SO TASTY🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
