One of my favourites from the eighties. I think her voice is even better now.

It's just possible that this is the greatest song ever written. Surprisingly easy to play - and yet I find it impossible to sing at the same time.
It's mad that she's not recorded an album since 2008 and I can't remember when she last toured (probably about the same time). She insists she hasn't retired, but...

An all time favourite of mine too and a truly magical performance.
I was in a pub a while ago when a young person was talking about a version of this song by some pre-pubescent popster. I played her the original from my phone and she quickly realised the error of her ways. This song may be some 30 years old but is no less moving.
