Thank you. That has always been one of my favourite Baez songs. And this morning it made me weep.

Thanks Cat.

Thanks Pav. It's very odd. This song came into my head a fortnight ago so I went and purchased it then from iTunes: the Judy Collins version as well as an ensemble version by Nanci Griffith with Lucinda Williams, Odetta, Steve Earle and Tish Hinjosa. As I listened to it, it had an incredible poignancy even before the events off Christmas Island this past week.
