I have been in love with the Highwayman poem since, like, fifth grade. And her version of it is so great. Makes me cry every damn time.
mattsmom,
Glad you liked it. The Lady of Shallot is one of those little-remembered bits of the Arthurian legend, but I quite like her. Have a poster of this picture framed and hanging in my hall.
Thank you for sharing this. It is lovely.
ReplyDeleteLovely! My favorite song-poem is her version of The Highwayman. McKennitt just brings that poem to life! Scary, creepy and romantic.
