Little Hawk:

Lies is at the top of my (ever changing) list. I think I would like to sing this song but fear that I would be reduced to tears of joy before I could finish it. "She looked up in that weathered face that loved hers line for line and saw the maiden shining in his eyes"

Big Mick:

Interesting that you mention The Dutchman. I was listening to it today and realised that it is the parallel song to Lies.

I recently learned how much the setting can mean. At The Woods camp Peggy Seeger sang The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face. While it was not particularly great from a perfomance point of view I sat there stunned thinking that not only was the song written for her but she was there for every event mentioned in the song. At the end of it I was so numb I couldn't clap properly. I was numb for about an hour after, went for a walk and had to force myself back to take part in the dance band. I get chills writing about it now.
