- From harpsichord to harp. On hearing of the passing of Dave Greenfield I was inspired to put some time into this song. It's haunting beauty really struck me as a child and I used to think of it as 'the ship song' and thought it was about some kind of ocean adventure. Then learning of it's actual more sombre meaning later in life it took on a whole new level of aching sadness. I love Dave Greenfield's clever and utterly unique keyboard parts and I really think this song lit up the musical parts of my brain early on and made a big impact. Here's my humble tribute to it.

Thank you
Of the 52 versions of this that i have checked out so far ....yours is the only one that has brought me to tears because...it is so beautiful...thank you
The one by the Stranglers makes me cry because the words and what I feel they mean, but this is the only other version that has moved me so, and I honestly do not know my favorite....
From the heavens she hails
The harpist of Nottinghamshire
To her music does my mind sail,
To lands of blissful pleasure
Be blessed muse, child of Apollo
In your magic does my soul find solace
In your music do I drown my sorrow
Oh fair lady, You make the world feel like a better place...
I have never heard such a soulful, gentle, yet powerful interpretation of this track! My full respect!
A must is to listen to this through a good set of head phones...!
Yeah, or a cup of opium tea.... I am what I am and what will be will be as I sit and sip my opium tea
@@mukhumor or just smoke that strong tree
Second the headphones 🎧… those bass notes!
I searched for a calm cover of this song and I finally found it. Outstanding performance! I'm amazed!
This deserves a thumbs up.There is something fascinating about it.I felt being sent back to the middle ages in the middle of mysterious light beam flooded forest.
What a moving, beautiful rendition of an amazing song....
I've been sitting here mesmerized watching a quite brilliant cover, who'd have thought someone could play my favourite song on a harp? Beautiful.
Just a masterpiece...
This is really beautiful, deserves at least a hundred thousand more views.
This song played on the harp just sounds so magical, this vid is awesome!
A most accomplished cover of this beautiful Dave Greenfield melody. A poetic ballad of great feeling and so musically sympathetic to the original piece. Well done. Waltz in Black?
This is great! You play this so authentically and I love the sound of the cross strung harp, it's perfect for this song! Also, loving your atmospheric lighting - that shadow behind you looks awesome!
Thanks Amy, that means a lot coming from you! Love your videos x
What an accolade! And totally deserved, this cover blows me away
It is my dream to play this song on my harp!! I just found your version and it made me cry. Thank you!
It is anyway a brilliant song but through the hands of Christine it goes beyond imagination. I've been listening at this music so many times and every time (just like the last) I'm dreaming of that same dream which I can't explain yet it makes me so happy. And as a sentimental person, here is my wish for Christine. I wish God bless these hands and let them make the whole world happy in the same way you make me happy. Keep on creating and take care. 🏵
Stunning
This is such a beautiful rendition... i cant stop listening! And I absolutely LOVE how you stretched out the ending.. like a soothing lullaby.
I love this. Magical.
I also early on associated this song with boats/sailing. Of course it was the beautiful tune, harmonies and instrumentation that I loved first, regardless of lyrics.
There was an article in Woodenboat magazine about most popular yacht names around that time, and Golden Brown was at the top one year. At the time I had known the heroin reference, so I wondered to myself how many of these people used the name knowing that, and how many didn't. Owning a yacht has been described as like standing in a cold shower tearing up $100 bills, or another good one is "a yacht is a hole in the water where you throw in money."
Oh yeah, this is a beautiful rendition. Thank you.
Perfectly stunning.
Reminds me of watching the Robin Hoods series in the 80s. Absolutely fantastic
This is amazing! The music of heaven. And one of my favourite songs. Thank you!
Wow!! It's an authentic pleasure!!!

Most expertly done of the harpists version.

So dreamy! Loved this mesmerizing Celtic feel.
WOW, This is stunning, playing the 2 keyboard parts at the same time, the ambience is just otherworldly. . . truly magical. . . Blessings. . .
Mesmerising arpeggios, utterly captivating. It might have almost been written for the harp, but that belies the skill behind your arrangement. Bravo!
