Nice sweet song. Hard working Emily for sure. Love the guitar. You also have a nice voice as well. ~ Judy ~What a lovely, touching song all round....
It's good enough in my opinion to stand up there with the best of classic folk songs.
Carol.xThis track shows a huge degree of empathy. It's an extremely sad but lovely song, written and sung from the heart.
I can understand perfectly how you became inspired.
In admiration.
Carol.I love the way the guitar picking imitates the carousel - brilliant. Vocals and recordings wonderful, as usual!All comments (45)

Difficult to hear because it sounds like you're at the back end of a cave. But, if we're overlooking production issues, as we often must. Then it becomes a very nice and thought provoking ballad.
