I heard a song on the radio here in Oz today. It was a woman with a country-sounding voice - could be American or could be using an American accent (it happens a lot over here, believe me). It was just her voice, a guitar (very sparse arrangement) and what sounded like a tin whistle in some verses. Some of the words of the chorus were something like: I think there was something about being in the light too I don't know much else to tell you. It isn't a radio station I listen to at all usually, but we were travelling back down from the mid-north coast so we were channel surfing as we went along. It was the Christian radio station so I am going to try to contact them and see if they can tell me who she was and the name of the tune, but they don't back anounce their songs (non-profit radio station - they often don't even have a DJ) so I don't hold out much hope for information. It wasn't outstandingly beautiful or out of the ordinary but I suspect that if I can find it and listen to it again a few times it would definitely grow on me. I like the sparseness of the arrangement. If you need to know more I'll see what else I can dredge up from my subconscious. Hope you can help, Helen

From: Helen No George, Thanks, but it isn't Peace in the Valley, but that is why I thought the word was valley, because I knew there was a song of that name. It was very much like a country song, sort of an Appalachian influence in the melody, but modern sounding words. I know this is a long shot, but I'm hoping someone here at the 'Cat can help me out.

I know I am not giving you much info to go on here, but does anyone have any thoughts on this? The woman sang in the same style as Linda Ronstadt in Country & Western mode, but she had a deeper/alto voice. Even a little creative brainstorming would help. Helen |
