Thanks Kathy - Funny, the beautiful young woman looks so much like my mother when she was young (she passed many years ago). I Googled the lyrics, and here is the basic English translation I found: from, Bill Haesler bhaesler at bigpond.net.au 'If you are going to see her and the great love that has abandoned me Far from the thoughts that start to go away for-ever.' [8 bars] 'And if you see my mother, tell her, tell her that I haven't written her So great the pain it breaks my heart Tell her for me my sadness I would have needed tender looks, And her soft hand, to take my hand and tell her And I shall return, sadly, close to her white hair. Re-find my childhood heart.' [24 bars]

Thanks bud

Neumann KMS 105 Handheld Condenser Microphone- $699 American. At that price, I'll stick with my sm58. It's probably cheaper in Europe.

Thank you, Juzek1958. That mic seems to fit her voice quite well. On some other vids, her voice doesn't come through nearly as well. On this link , for instance, she sounds like she's singing into a tin can tied to a string - kzfaq.info/get/bejne/b913q9idvcCYoaM.html

Lyrics by Jean Broussole (not my translation): "If You See My Mother" aka "Lonesome"- If you are going to see her and the great love that abandoned me, far from the thoughts, that start to go away forever. And if you see my mother tell her, tell her I haven't written her so great the pain. It breaks my heart. Tell her for me my sadness. I would have needed tender looks, and her soft hand, to take my hand and tell her, and I shall return sadly close to her white hair, refind my childhood heart.
