Every note of each song brings a vision
of love and of pain back to me
Like a captive I've locked in a prison
and whose liberty rests upon me.
But I can't find the key.
You may never be free.
- Sandy Denny
I morse hade BBC en kort intervju med Thea Gilmore som ju tonsatt Sandy Dennys upphittade texter och nu gör en liten hyllnings-turné med några andra artister:
There's a time to be talking
And a time when it's no use.
Right now I think the things you say
Are liable to confuse.
I've just gone solo.
Do you play solo?
Ain't life a solo?
- Sandy Denny
Sandy blev bara 31 år. Livet är orättvist... Men tänk att vi än idag kan beröras så av det hon skapade! Här är en enastående live-version av "Solo" från BBC 1973:
The lady she had a silver tongue
For to sing she said
And maybe that's all
Wait for the dawn and we will have that song.
When it ends it will seem
That we hear silence fall.
- Sandy Denny
