"I sang the song from 1957 in January pretty much until the person who made it, Ewan MacColl, died in 1989. After that, I had trouble singing it. Then my voice changed and I've hardly sung it at all in the last three decades. So here it is the way I sing it now. I just love it and I'd like to dedicate it in a strange way to Roberta Flack who made the song popular - a very different way of singing it and Roberta, I wish you well and of course you who are watching I wish you well too."
