I like it...but it didn't move me like Loudon.
I still wish McKechnie would sing it.

Very cool.
And no, it's not as moving as Loudon's.
I wish that the audio version that Dorothy Collins did was still on YouTube. That was wonderful...

Interesting and thank you for posting.
I didn't realise there were any versions other than Dorothy Loudon's - it would certainly be interesting to hear Ms Collins' take.
I think in her performance, Dorothy L tries to repress her emotions more whereas Elaine lets them all hang out.
