This song slew me in 1970. I was emotionally drained and became an ardent follower of RF permanently. Classical singer of classical songs. Immortal.
So beautiful 🌹
thank you Ewan McColl for the lyrics and Roberta for the delivery
My god, so beautiful.!!!!
Beautiful lyrics. Even more, beautiful is that voice and her talent. That's why only but a few can perform live and still nail it.
So, so love her music!! Can't explain how her songs move me, particularly as I get older. God bless her life and the end of time...
My favorite song Thank you Eddie have a blessed bday

She sung from her inner most spirit. Definitely spiritual. Beyond her heart....
SPACTACULAR, I was 10 yrs old when she sang this. My mom would play this in the house. words mean so much now as an adult. her song are beautiful. I can now appreciate her music😃❣👏
My mom and step dad married in 1972 after both of them were widowed. I imagine this song captured the joy of their love / I was 12
I never tire of listening to this beautiful song and the pure emotion Roberta exhumes!
I rehab abandoned baby birds and have really felt the "trembling heart of a captive bird" in my hand that stopped suddenly. Playing God in that small way hurt so bad. Lot's of tears hearing the passage in this song!
JUST a smooth, soothing melody...just beautiful Shalom, Levi

It's a fact that many black singers started out as Gospel singers. They honed their craft in the church n many bcame fine pop n soul singers.
