Now lets see any of the ******** young artists of today have the balls to write and sing a song about lying in bed next to their dead girlfriend because they are already dead to them in spirit. This is ******* poetry.

This song, featured in the film, Fly Away Home, is an 18th-century English folk ballad, originally titled, Fare Thee Well.

Is this song from Inside Llewelyn Davis the same English folk ballad?

"Urge for Going" was written by Joni Mitchell. Her version is beautiful and this song has been covered by quite a few artists, but Tom Rush has pretty much made it his. I heard him perform it in concert once- just him and his guitar- but I can't get this version out of my head.

Nick Drake ... Five Leaves Left ... the whole album ... so, so, sad that he died so young ...

This is the official video for this song. I love the song, but the video is pretty good too- I think it fits the music well.

Anything by Kebu is amazing, here's his latest performance (co-written with two others):

(The "vocals" are a bit annoying, but tolerable ...)

This is nearly 9 minutes in length, but I really like this version. It's from her 1975 live album.

Interesting interpretation of a classic 80s pop song!

Ella could make anything sound good...

My first exposure to "Misty" was via the 1971 movie "Play Misty for Me", with Clint Eastwood and Jessica Walter. Not really the best way to be introduced to the song, by the way.

Get ready for something completely different .... The vid is as interesting as the music, or prob more, tbh.
