Thank you for watching
The beauty and humanity is shocking.
Reminds me of Anne Briggs singing this song. She also came from Nottingham. You both have wonderful voices.
Beautiful song, Julie. Thank you for sharing your wonderful voice with us.

That’s really kind thank you. My older three children must know every single word to all the songs I’ve ever sung for them (though they’d not admit it!) at bedtime. Maybe one day they’ll take it up. Who knows 🥰
You have got the best folk voice ever.xx🐝🐝

Beautiful song, albeit like much or our wildlife the cuckoo has vanished from most of the English countryside. What a tragedy! what are we doing?.

So true, many a cuckoo I heard around Hardwick Park (a place I know you are familiar), in the past. Thanks for sharing your music.@@EatBakeSing
