My 1st thought listening to it... Oh her voice & phrasing reminds me of someone... Maybe Quigley ? Then some bars later into the song I had that feeling of having heard it before for sure... Turned out it's a beautifully done cover of the Montgolfier Brothers (Mark Tranmer / & the late Roger Quigley - one of Manchester's best kept secret songrwriter) song.
Here's a link to the original :
Quigley's gone to soon, never to be forgotten in my list of great songwriters & singers. Check his "A kind Of Loving" song & the Mongolfier's "Even if my mind can't tell you" too... Hope you'll be enjoying them...
