I can remember my father singing this song since I was a boy. Something just told me to punch some lyrics into Google, & here I am. What a beautiful song. He has departed from me 12 years now, but I still miss him every day. I'm about to be 30 in a few weeks
This is my absolute favorite version of this song, I just spent 20 min searching and searching youtube. This should be high on the first page when someone searches "The Bonnie Banks o' Loch Lomond"
Luxon's voice is perfect here...but then his voice was perfect in just about any genre. Such gorgeous tone. One of the finest and most beautiful voices ever.
Luxon was primarily an opera singer, but he had a second, concurrent career as a folk singer, with his singing partner, Bill Crofut. Luxon unfortunately went deaf in his 50s from an auto-immune condition. What a magnificent voice.
Ich kann nicht verstehen, dass diese Version so weit hinten steht in der Liste. Ich musste so lange suchen ... - Dieses Lied wird von Benjamin Luxon einfach fantastisch gesungen. Meine Lieblingsversion überhaupt. Danke dafür !
@@bigsmoke7759 He was mainly an opera and concert singer, who had a separate career as a folk singer with hsi singing partner, Bill Crofut. Luxon was one of the greatest operatic baritones of the 20th Century. Unfortunately, in the early 1990s he went deaf from an autoimmune condition, and no longer sings. We're all very lucky that so many of his recordings are available.
