The Broken Circle Breakdown - Wayfaring Stranger

 Well of course I’ve seen the Oscar-nominated Belgian movie “The Broken Circle Breakdown”, where this song is placed in a key-moment of the story. But I didn’t think it would hold up this strong just by itself. Just another proof the lead-actress Veerle Baetens (who also sings the song) is world-class !

In comparison, the modern take of Ed Sheeran can be found here: Wayfaring Stranger by Ed Sheeran. It was recorded in one take and is a beautiful showcase of his voice looping technique. But, I do prefer the intensity of the first one. What about you? (yes, commenting is possible).
