I learnt to sing this song in Kindergarten back in 1958. I was 5 years old. It remains as one the the most touching songs I have ever heard, and believe me, I've heard a lot. I discovered Kate and Anna in 1978 in Ireland as someone who had their second LP thought I might like it as I was - and still am- French. Indeed I did and still do.

I've love my friend Jane McGarrigle and the beautiful soul-filling music of the whole family.

The album ‘Complainte pour Sainte Catherine’ was a revelation for me when it appeared in the mid 1970’s. From that time Kate and Anna have been artists I’ve always loved and revered. There are few musicians whose work truly embeds itself in one’s life, becomes almost a part of you. The McGarrigles were that, for me. Thank you.

I remember hearing Kate and Anna sing this at Camden Town Hall London (I think) decades ago and it's haunted me ever since. If only they'd recorded it. Good to hear it again from the family.

Ian Hatwell you probably already know this but they do have a recording of the song on the album “Oddities “, it’s a beautiful rendition.

Toute ma vie a été cadencée par les géniales chansons des merveilleuses sœurs McG. Si le monde était normal elles devraient être encore plus fameuses que Emmylou Harris, Linda Ronstadt et Neil Young ensemble.

because they did things the way they wanted. They are eclectic and not for everybody. But for all of us (and now you) who know about them, how every lucky we are oxoxoxox

I wish they were better known. Both their songs in the English language and the French language. If music like theirs, of that quality, was better known, it would improve humanity.

There is a zillion of performers you could ask the same question about and a another zillion who you could ask why are they well known. Okay, not zillions, but you get my drift. Anyway ask Simon Cowell and not me.

In about 1980 I first heard their song Na Cl on a radio Science Show in the land of Oz - and I went to the other side of the moon to get what was then a tape ... and I've loved them ever since.( Even the French Canadian ones :) WE played the Swimming Song in honour of of son Liam in May this year - such a bright ray in a sad time...
