I'm not sure if this has been posted previously, but I stumbled across it today while watching Rufus Wainwright/Simon Nicol/Ashley Hutchings performing "WKWTTG" at the Folk Awards a few years back: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jNPjkZAYavgGlen Hansard and Richard Thompson doing a splendid version of the same song in North Carolina, back in 2015.

Really nice version.
It is. It makes a really nice change to not hear someone (generally female) trying to 'out-sing' Sandy. This is the guy from the Frames?

Here's a video of Al Stewart's backing band covering MOTL on the current UK tour: https://www.facebook.com/1207771766/videos/1700958276971170/They don't make a bad fist of it, I reckon.

I first saw this duo, LEANNAN late 2021 . Booked them for a fest in 2022, when they completely won over a predominantly unfolky crowd and then I was playing at the same house gig, just before Christmas. They played this for me. ‘‘Twas special. I like it cos she’s not trying to be Sandy. I have a Vikki Clayton version that I return to , as well as the original, obviously. https://youtu.be/5lPWpRbwVe4

Yes, this is a fine attempt. I prefer the woman's vocals which serve the lyrics well. Nice group to have joined, thanks.

Decent, that one...and yes, so good to hear someone sing a Sandy song in their own voice.

Mine is really the Bruce/Swarb foursome but I have a lot of affection for the early years of this lineup, especially live. E N E R G Y. From the days when they were still a folk-rock band... ps like one of the comments I too reckon it's early 90s not 80s...
