Black Eyed Dog - Lisa Hannigan HQ video free download

Marga Costa

Nick Drake's original was superb and yet introspective. Lisa gives so much more, she makes the song hers: urgently and violently vital. She's the most powerful live folk singer I know at the moment.

Phoebe Buffe, is it you?

Loved this version and also love the original. I've separated the 2 pieces into completely different works, there's no point thinking of it as her trying to do Drake because that wont work.

JK Morrison

I admit that I didn't want to like it either. After all, this was the most powerful and haunting of Nick Drake's songs. And I had never heard of Lisa Hannigan. But my word, this brought tears to my eyes and choked mup, as well as giving me the chills. She, and the whole band, did it justice. But note, even with all of them playing their best and inspired, it couldn't beat Nick's version. that's how great he was. The chick did alright and then some.

¿Cómo se llama el instrumento que toca ella?

Suffering can be strangely beautiful. Wonderful rendition of a classic.

Huh....She made it sound like something you'd play at a wake and not a funeral...I wanted to hate it, but I kinda feel where she's coming from...

I quite like this cover. The original has a celtic-esque sound to the guitar work and in a way this version accentuates that aspect. I dunno. It's kinda cool. I like her cover of Bob Dylan's 'The Times They Are a-Changin' too, with Herbie Hancock etc.

This is dreadful. Why is she singing dog with a soft D sound, and more to the point, why is she skipping random consonants? I thought she was Eastern European or something; please tell me this is to do with an Irish accent and not her lazy enunciation.It would've been alright if she hadn't sounded like she was half-arsing it, honestly. Her voice has enough power in it.

John Byrne

I think she was really brave with this. She could have played it safe and strummed an acoustic guitar. Instead she brought out the ghostly, haunting quality that the original had, just with different instruments and a quicker tempo. The best cover versions take some chances with the original material. Without that artistic bravery, we would never have gottenJeff Buckley's Hallelujah or Hendrix's All Along the Watchtower.

Dan Wallwork

I saw this when it toured Australia and it was one of the most jaw dropping performances I've seen. Been an enormous fan of Lisa's since... A bummer that the video didn't really capture the enormity of the quality job that they did.

Kara Jayne

This is amazing ^^

Charles Black

I get that Nick Drake is extremely difficult to cover, but this is awful.

Well jklseattle I take it you didn't like this? if that's the best you have to offer then I suggest you take a few steps forward and jump. Can you swim? I hope not.

This is black-eyed dog shit. And the stomping serves absolutely ZERO artistic purpose. It's like the musical equivalent of slight-of-hand. "Concentrate on my random foot-stamping so you don't notice my shit vocals and awkward stage presence." But by all means, lets congratulate each other on finding profundity in it.

wovokanarchy

Is she a performer who is mentally challenged or does Drake's music invoke that within her?

TheGenreman

The best cover of one of Nick's songs.
