    I honestly can't believe this even exists! Words fail - just beautiful - and to tie these two songs together from, apparently, different genres so seamlessly!!!
    I'm just in awe - what incredible songcraft and the voice of an absolute angel !!

    I would like to learn welsh only to tell Cerys how I love her. I remember driving by night through the Jura mountains (in France, not the scottish island) and our kids were singing on the back seat the songs of her solo albums...

    does anyone know if this is recorded somewhere? on a CD or MP3 ..... i feel certain no vinyl .... it is just hauntingly beautiful to me ... I have the Strange Glue song by Catatonia but this is better. Clearer. I wish Cerys could re-record somehow the entire wonderful International Velvet album with a good bet less distortion in it. Or what ever the noise is called ... It is an amazing album but stereos do not always love it ... I was testing out some new speakers last night and put a CD version of it on ... I was like ... wow these speakers suck ... well then I put on a less "noisy" record ... what is her name .... Ravi's daughter ... oh ya ... Norah Jones .... speakers became a keeper. I need to study this more ... often certain speakers work better with different types of music ... but not many truly love International Velvet ... it seems to me .... I would love to hear your thoughts. Jerry

      Okay, thanks, Bea Geraghty, I checked it out and gave it a listen. Very nice. You know, as much as anything I really like the guitar work there.
      Also, I agree with you; I love how Cerys sings this song too.
      My favorite thing ever by her is her old-time-Nashville-flavored version of "Arglwydd Dyma Fi." czcams.com/video/kSHvaLI1IgY/video.html
