I am 59 and first fell in love with her voice at 18, still holding a flame after all these years. Gorgeous!

"Someone To Laydown Beside Me".....one of the most beautiful Karla Bonoff songs!!!

Saw her about a month ago. She's still amazing. One of the most under-rated talents ever.

She melts me like John Denver and James Taylor. Gives me chills. I know her voice from million miles away.

Karla is just as awesome as she was 35 years before this performance. I have seen her twice live and have loved her timeless music and angelic voice for a long time. She recorded this song with James Taylor as the accompanying vocalist. Pure beauty.

If angels sing, she shares her voice with them. Sweet as it gets.

Karla, there is no words to express how sweet your voice sound when you sing this song. Really, love you as much as the song itself. So Heavenly!

One of my favorites of all time... I'm still in that boat, alone, waiting for someone to come and row beside me.

62years old okinawa nippon 　素晴らしい曲なので　日本人の歌手の方もたくさん歌ってます　でも　やはり肺活量が少ない　Karla san　の歌は本当に心に染みます 　この場にいた方達が羨ましいです　有難う！　また来ます

This song always makes me weep.

How can you not cry listening to her sing this?

Sung so beautifully! Lovely voice.

That guitar solo was like sprinkles of water to my thirsty soul. Damn...

the most beautiful version of this song I have ever heard,I would hope that when I pass someone would play this song and it has to b Karla s version every time I hear it it brings me close to tears

I've heard a lot of arrangements of this song, but this one is far and away my favorite, especially the album cut with John David Souther and James Taylor doing the harmonies.

Karla you've melted my heart! love to you from Australia.😊

chills up and down my spine......I had this album and played it each time I went to sea......Love Her

One of the most beautiful songs ever imo.

The most beautiful voice I've ever heard

STILL adore and love her 💛😊

色んなアーティストたちが歌っているが、私はカーラのヴァージョンが一番すきだ。

Beautiful version….well done and love from Canada 🇨🇦

Some hurts you never get over, but must learn to live with. The pain of love will always return in dreams and there's no reason to believe it will ever go away.

Just a beautiful voice and the lyrics. I hope to see her in concert someday. Love you Karla !!!

The best version ever. No matter who may try it, this one just nails it...

I saw her in concert with Jackson Browne in 1979 and have listened to her on a regular basis since then.

Lovely, memorable. Been listening to her sing this for many, many years, and it never grows old. A certain guitar lives on.

listening to this and thinking of friends and family gone on has always affected me...She played this for a small group of College Radio people in Atlanta in '76. Mac Mcanally was there also. He jammed for us in the elevator for about an hour. Seeing him and her in a small group when we were all so young was magical. Mac was 19 and the rest of us were in our 20s....Karla was 25.

The Water Is Wide (바다는 넓고) The water is wide I cant cross over 바다가 너무 넓어 건널 수가 없어요 And neither have the wings to fly 난 날 수 있는 날개도 없는걸요 Give me a boat that can carry two #65279; 배를 주세요 두 사람이 탈 수 있는 And both shall row, my love and I 우리 둘이 저어 갈께요, 내 사랑과 내가 Oh, love is gentle and love is kind 사랑은 부드럽고, 사랑은 다정하죠 The sweetest flower when first its new 처음 꽃피울 때는 가장 향기로운 꽃이지만 But love grows old and waxes cold 사랑도 나이가 들고 차갑게 식어버리다가 and fades away like morning dew 아침 이슬처럼 사라져 버리네요 There is a ship and she sails to sea 바다로 흘러가는 배가 하나 있네요 Shes loaded deep as deep can be 짐을 가득 실었지만 But not as deep as the love Im in 당신에게 빠진 내 사랑만큼 가득하진 않아요 I know not how I sink or swim 내 사랑이 가라앉을지 헤쳐 나갈지는 나도 모르겠네요

That's KENNY EDWARDS on guitar and harmony; he produced her and played bass with Linda. A Stone Poney. RIP.

The great beauty of song no better demonstrated x

Lovely. Thank you.

Karla, I love this. It is so touching. And I love you.

Never heard her before. From today on I regret. Such a wonderful voice. Yes, this is fantastic for sure

Karla and Kenny what a complete and underrated combination. Lovely melodic blend, yes, heard Nina playing lead at times on a Strat.

Good voice, good song. Awesome and beautiful beyond words of expression.

Just fabulous.....thank you...

To those who will be reading this, God bless you and your family! God loves you 💕

Beautiful ..💕💕💕

What a voice! By far my favorite rendition of this wonderful song.

Awsome rendition!

Amazing voice!

Here it is, God knows how many years after Karla released this, and her's still one of the most beautiful single performances of the song. I'm floored every time I hear her sing it.

Once saw her perform at Boulder's Chautauqua Park... Truly a magical experience...

an angel she is

Small stage for that much talent!

my favorite song by Karla Bonoff

So very soothing and in a great key! Thank you!

Beautifully presented, magical voice, so nice! Thank you!!

beautiful

She's not underrated. Everybody here seems to like her. I do. She had the unfortunate circumstance of being a female singer song writer at the same time as carly simon, joni mitchell and carole king. She appears highly rated by people who have heard her sing.

absolutely Wonderful! I would love to see her in concert.

Gorgeous voice

Amazing rendition, perfect voice

One of the greatest songs ever written

There is a place some of us chance to visit though few remain to live there. Sometimes after many a long year the memory is new again in dream or echoes in a song.

Love your version of this!!! I saw you open for Jackson Browne in 79 or 80 and have listened to you ever since!!

Perfect!!!! 💕

Il brano è stupendo. Bellissima voce e intensa interpretazione. Grazie.

too much beautyful voice, i have tears

I've known Karla since I was 17 (40 years). The water is clearly "wide" and it takes much effort to cross the waters to join with someone else. There are storms even if we are in the boat together and we all have to remain focussed on the "lighthouse" or "the North Star" to remain on course.

Maravillosa y tan sencilla...!

Always amazing!

I saw this video released all the concert stages in Japan in 2006 in Japan. More than ten years have passed since then. I honor her and still acting still, I wish for his future success. Karla and I are the same age, so her poetry is immersed in my heart.Thank you for "pjcisum" for releasing this!

Hey Kenny! We miss you.

とても、落ち着きます。

Golly. Some lovely performance.

Beautiful

This is soooo beautiful! Thank you.

언제들어도 아름다운 곡이네요

Gorgeous.

Beatiful

favorite‼︎

Beautiful rendition!

AWESOME!

감미로운 음정이 좋아요

やっぱりこれが最高。癒すー。

Nothing has change Karla ,I still have a crush on you.

Good!!!

가슴이 답답할 때....눈을 감고 들으면 쉼*이 되는 노래입니다.deep in mind....

Great!!!

And more gorgeous than that!

The Seekers. They hold the words not leave them short.

懐かしい！泣けた

A very nice folk song 。

From God. Makes me cry. It’s just evil world we were thrown into

I love this song and heard many covers, It seem there are many lyrics to the same verses and each artist sing it differently.

just found you today....What Have I Been Missing??? Wow !

잔잔한 멜로디가 듣기 좋네요

Great............

Wonderful artisf. Should be more widely celebrated.

😢😢RIP Kenny. gone Too soon

素晴らしい。今もご活躍されているのでしょうか❔

좋아라 하는 곡인데 라이브는 첨본다

XO

Love the Chinese intro song----- "Too-Ning", Ha!

We only learned, after hearing this beautiful rendition, that Kenny Edwards passed away some years ago. We think the harmonies are so beautiful. Does anyone know where we might get the sheet music that contains this duet? Thanks Kenny, RIP.

Watching this the day after Trump won. Sought this out. Needed to hear Karla sing this sweet song. Heart is broken.

Is that Kenny Edwards playing guitar? He was so amazing. He passed away some years ago. Such a loss.

The water is wide I can't cross over And neither have I wings to fly Build me a boat That can carry two And both shall row, my love and I There is a ship And she sails the sea She's loaded deep As deep can be But not so deep As the love I'm in I know not how I sink or swim Oh love is handsome And love is fine The sweetest flower When first it's new But love grows old And waxes cold And fades away like Summer dew Build me a boat That can carry two And both shall row, my love and I And both shall row, my love and I
