Requiem for Titanic By Robin Gibb & RJ Gibb - Don't Cry Alone - performed by Mary-Jess Leaverland video free download
On the the 30th September the late Robin Gibb (Bee Gees's) was honoured by the unveiling of a Blue Heritage Foundation Plaque at his home in Thame Oxfordshire.
Following the unveiling a Charity Garden Party took place in the Garden of Dwina Gibb, Robin's widow. One of Robin's last musical works was a collaboration with his son RJ Gibb - a classical work "Requiem for Titanic". Robin Gibb sadly was not well enough to attend the Performance with the Royal Philarmonic in April.
At the Charity Garden Party Mary-Jess Leaverland performed the poignant song from the Requiem "Don't Cry Alone" and received a standing ovation from RJ Gibb, and guests.
Mary-Jess Leaverland won Min Xing Chang Fan Tian (I Want To Sing To The Stars), the equivalent of X Factor in China. Since then she has gone on to record her debut Album Shine & has supported Russel Watson on Tour.

This is a song that I never wanted to hear from any voice but Robin's. A friend alerted me to this video. I listened. I am weeping helplessly. Mary Jess, you are EXQUISITE. THANK YOU for this! I am now your fan.11 years ago

Dear Miss Mary-Jess I would like to say that your performance here was spell-binding. I loved the way you sang Don't Cry Alone. It is my favourite song by Robin Gibb, considering it was his last (sadly). But your version along with his make me cry. I love it and I want to thank you for singing it so beautifully.11 years ago

To Mary-Jess - this beautiful song has been painful for many of Robin's fans to listen to since April, but your moving version somehow brought it back to us again. The family were clearly moved. It was a joy to witness your performance that day - thank you so much!11 years ago

Thanks SO much Mary-Jess for responding personally - Sorry it was so shaky - I was only using my camera, but I thought you would like seeing RJ Gibb's response & reaction again to your beautiful voice. I hope the biography description of you and your previous work in the intro were accurate - let me know if I have got anything wrong! I had never heard of you before seeing you on Sunday - Now a great admirer... You have an amazing talent. Kindest Regards Teresa11 years ago
