I've loved this song for years and it has been in my head for a few days now - I love it! Buffy Sainte-Marie reminds me of a lot of Summer/Autumn nights back at home. This Saskatchewan Canadian-based Native folk singer has been a musical and creative inspiration to me. She teaches me how to relax and be free.I think there is some Indian blood on my dads side with our high cheekbones, as well as my fascination for the native culture, shared by my mom. We had a dream catcher in our van for years. We were protected :)
I just love listening to this talented and diverse singer. I would love to cover her song "Goodnight" - we will see :)
You should check out the album "Coincidence and Likely Stories". I first discovered Buffy Sainte-Marie at a secondhand shop and the rest is history (yes, I listen to records as they still give the best sound ever).

OH MY GOONESS GRACIOUS! lol! I remember when my grad 8 teacher introduced me to this lady and her special voice back in '98. I was so smitten that 2 years later I tried in vain to dl her on Napster. I eventually did get some of her songs years late. I always thought of her as some rare treasure that no one knew about but me!

Yes! Your Grade 8 teacher knows music! It is so awesome you also love her! After buying a used record, my mom showed me that my dad had like 5 of them in his record collection. He was a DJ, but I didn't imagine him playing her at parties? Hehe :) It is so nice to hear someone else loves her just as much as I do! Yay! :D
