Jeanne Robertson – Don’t Hire a Hit Man

Back to youtube. I am making it a policy to look to see if any youtube video is also available on other sites, like real.video. Unfortunately, this video was not available elsewhere.
If you want to send me suggestions, keep this in mind. Youtube needs some competition.
Gabriella Quevedo – Blackbird
An evening pause: This evening pause is partly an experiment. It is embedded not from youtube but from real.video. I would appreciate comments, problems, etc.
The Kempters – The Orange Blossom Special
An evening pause: What makes this fun is that the whole front row of fiddlers is actually 14-year-old Chris Kempter, competing against himself for top spot on the band.

Eric Clapton – Tears In Heaven
An evening pause: Hat tip Danae, who suggested a different performance that I posted back in 2015. I also posted a third version in 2011. No matter. There is something very heartfelt about the song and every Clapton performance that makes it worth watching again and again. The song was written following the death of Clapton’s four-year-old son, Conor, after falling from a window of the 53rd-floor New York apartment on March 20, 1991.
Anna Nalick – Breathe (2am)
An evening pause: Hat tip Edward Thelen.
