As a teenager in the 60s, I had a tremendous crush on Marianne. She was so pretty and had such a beautiful voice and she was British which made her seem exotic to an American. LOL
@@lesselp she's English. She was born in Hampstead. The last I heard last year she was living in Putney. She has British citizenship. It has never been revoked and why should it be? Everything about her screams English. She's not a foreigner.
Yeah. This is the saddest version of "Sunny Goodge Street" ever recorded; it seems to be begging the question, WHAT DO YOU DO WHEN "FUN" ISN'T FUN ANYMORE? Nobody was better at being sweetly sad and wistful than Marianne was.
this song came out the yr i was born, finally got to see her perform live in Toronto 38 yrs later, what an incredible night i had standing in the front row watching this woman perform at age 60
On the firefly platform on sunny Goodge Street Violent hash-smoker shook a chocolate machine Involved in an eating scene Smashing into neon streets in their stillness Smearing their eyes on the crazy-colored goddess Listenin' to sounds of Mingus Mellow Fantastic "My, my, " they sigh "My, my, " they sigh In doll house rooms with colored lights swingin' Strange music boxes sadly tinklin' Drinkin' the sun, shining all around you "My, my, " they sigh "My, my, " they sigh "My, my, " they sigh "My, my, " they sigh The magician, he sparkles in satin and velvet You gaze at his splendour with eyes you've not used yet I tell you his name is Love, Love, Love "My, my, " they sigh "My, my, " they sigh "My, my, " they sigh
What an IDIOT I AM? The comment below- it's mine. Still holds, I am enthralled with her new release, her beloved Romantic poets. I doubt Marianne would title her channel with "apparent conceit" ! But then she doesn't seem the sort to indulge in false modesty! Whoever you are, YOU DO HAVE SUPERLATIVE TASTE. If you haven't yet saved your pennies and bought, SHE WALKS IN BEAUTY, I strongly recommend the disc. Here voice is still mesmerized just in a richer, more experienced way. I doubt I'll have the luck to see her in concert now, her health isn't up to touring very far ie. North America. But, Marianne is a SURVIVOR, bless her. I need her more than ever; her male counterpart, Leonard Cohen sadly roves with a another Marianne...Namaste, Z.
Happy Birthday Marianne Faithfull born on December 29, 1946. He is an English singer, songwriter, and actress. She achieved popularity in the 1960's with the release of her hit single As Tears Go By. - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marianne_Faithfull
I think Donovan created a new genre we could call folkjazz with this song and Get Thy Bearings and a few more. Faithful is faithful to this song about 84%. I really prefer the Judy Collins' cover.
Beautiful voice but she doesn't get the zeitgeist of the place and time the song was describing. It isn't about butterflies and sweetness. It's about a gritty tube station in London. Of course, it was Donovan's vision and he got it right. An amazing song for young people who wonder what the change of the world in the 60s was about.
Marie Laforet had a very beautiful vibrato voice like Faithfull. Also she had a long career with undamaged vocal chords, which were an ecstasy to listen to.
I love Marianne's voice, but this rendition has ZERO feel or emotion as relates to the subject manner. Terrible. Judy Collins, however, hit it out of the park.

Jewish - mother was Eva von Sacher-Masoch, Baroness Erisso of Hungary - not exactly British.
Me too squire.

@@lainey3612 Jewish network camouflages well but remains aloof from the natives. You probably think James Bond and Harry Potter are played by Brits.
@@lesselp wow. This is nasty stuff. The ‘Jewish network?’ How about ‘The Grateful Embracemnt of Humanity’s Diversity’ network?
Perfection and one of Donovans best songs.
Wow her voice is Beautiful here.
Her voice is pure.
back again to listen to Marianne✌😎
Shivers...amazing..purity.. innocence...beauty,, Donovan...Bliss
very poetic.... and accurate.... I've never heard or seen a woman like her.
Marrianne said she would like to try everything once. I'm still waiting!
Marianne at her best
great song with candy vocals ...very enchanting

what a trippy '60's song
this song came out the yr i was born, finally got to see her perform live in Toronto 38 yrs later, what an incredible night i had standing in the front row watching this woman perform at age 60
Her voice was goodgeous.
*gorgeous
@@heliotropezzz333
sunny-goodgeous.
@@cbranalli I get it.
This is a beautiful record
Sone people wished she stayed like this
The opera version of this song is magnificent
a very cool version of this song written by the first stoner of the 🌎 world Donovan😎
Judy Collins I think.
From Donovan's Fairytale album, '65ish 🌻🐇🌝
Check out Tom Northcott's single which was great, but came out the same week as Sgt. Pepper's.
Yes Donovan wrote the tune indeed.
@@TheIanErc judy sang it also 1966 but Donovan wrote it (and sang it)!
Beautiful rendition, what a smooth, silky voice!!
One of the most fantastic women who ever lived. Drugs destroyed her voice. Thank God for videos.
Love her version of Ballad of Lucy Jordan too.
love the song love Marianne love Donovan love love love
THANKS for posting this -- it's stunning!
Timeless..........🔄
........

Pretty yet a very good singer.
What a pretty voice she had!!!.
So nice Marianne !
On the firefly platform on sunny Goodge Street
Violent hash-smoker shook a chocolate machine
Involved in an eating scene
Smashing into neon streets in their stillness
Smearing their eyes on the crazy-colored goddess
Listenin' to sounds of Mingus Mellow Fantastic
"My, my, " they sigh
"My, my, " they sigh
In doll house rooms with colored lights swingin'
Strange music boxes sadly tinklin'
Drinkin' the sun, shining all around you
"My, my, " they sigh
"My, my, " they sigh
"My, my, " they sigh
"My, my, " they sigh
The magician, he sparkles in satin and velvet
You gaze at his splendour with eyes you've not used yet
I tell you his name is Love, Love, Love
"My, my, " they sigh
"My, my, " they sigh
"My, my, " they sigh
Once again my dreams came true with Marrianne Faithful
Im back once again to hear the stoner tune once again wow lets get high Marianne
Magnifique!!!
Always seemed like she should have been a much bigger star.
Love You Ms Faithful
Nice photo below of Marianne Faithful and Mick Unfaithful!!!!
An Angel.........caught by evil......
How very beautiful.
Meravigliosa
😍

No autotune here
Judy blows them all out of the water !

She messes up the lyrics, but still a joy to watch and listen to. She looks a bit loaded...
❤️🌹
Jazzyyy
This song is a kinda mix of Baby , i'm gonna leave you with Gold and Silver.
Get higher
ARE you Lady Faithfull? I have longed to speak with you for decades-
Lovely version. Better than Judy Collins who sounds harsh in comparison. Marianne aces it.
HOW much better can it be? Dag

and your bird can sing
Exquisite femininity
before she was a junkie--very nice version of this --judy collins's is good too
Marie Laforet had a very beautiful vibrato voice like Faithfull. Also she had a long career with undamaged vocal chords, which were an ecstasy to listen to.
Sweet…almost as good as Donovan’s original…
Something in the way she moves here, not THAT song, written for another lovely icon, her pensive attitude?
彼女を活かしきれなかったマネージャーは無能でしたね。
not in her pop vein
I love Marianne's voice, but this rendition has ZERO feel or emotion as relates to the subject manner. Terrible. Judy Collins, however, hit it out of the park.
dont like it
Your Done...unlucky 13...your Trill is Gone
