........ and thank you for your lovely comments which you left for me and my daughter Linda earlier today... much appreciated..

Thank you soooo much for that!

you young ladies are singers. I am a truck driver who makes a bit of noise every now and then, so I will leave the harmonising up to you pair/either/or! :-)

Thank you again! :-)

wooooohooooo! I get to you!

heheehe I mean get to "see" you.

I really love your voice, Indy.

It sounds like you knew the song just fine. Never heard this song. A beautiful dedication. sad. You sang it so well, though.

Interesting that the artist is a lady. hmmm. Guess she is telling the story.

How do I respond to these? I know! I will cut and paste and type between them.

Now I really AM embarrassed because so many of you people have voices so superior to mine that it just isn't funny.

Nah! The second verse was completely different and, boy, did I stumble!

Her father was a coal miner and I think she wrote it as if she were he. Not sure I have the facts right, however ... but I think that's how it goes!

I believe that many think it is a Canadian song, but I always thought it was written about the miners of Cornwall and Wales.

Thank you for all your sonderful and supportive comments!

yes is was very popular here in wales .....thankyou *******judy

I never heard this song!! really enjoyed my listen !!! It's very pretty song!! **************************************

Thank you Judy. I am not sure if Rita McNeil was Welsh ... with a name like that I would have thought her Irish! I have watched a video of her doing it on Youtube and it is gorgeous.

I appreciate your comment.

It is a pretty song and a sad one as well, Sheila. Thank you for your very kind words!

Awwwwwwwwwwww Jessi. You are wayyyy too kind! Hard NOT to dedicate something like this, when you know what it was like down in those mines.

I have worked in similar danger and health risk (and am paying the price today) so I have real empathy.

Thank you, sweet lady, for your words.

This is a lovely rendition of this beautiful song, great vocals 5*
