I'll send it to youre email too!


1. How and when did you first hear Wayfaring Stranger? It's a song I am just 'familiar with' but a few weeks ago a friend just happened to play Norma Watersons version. I knew as soon as I heard it that I must learn it and sing it.

2. How did you learn it? Found the lyrics on the internet and listened to it alot!

3. When did you first perform/record it? A week ago at local folk club session....performed again yesterday!

4. Why did you choose to perform/record it? It is a very beautiful song.

5. Where did you source your lyrics from? Internet... there are several lyric finders on there.

I look forward to your replies!

thankyou :-)
