"From a Distance" is a song by American singer-songwriter #JulieGold, initially penned in 1985. Gold's friend #ChristineLavin introduced the song to #NanciGriffith, who first recorded it for her 1987 album #LoneStarStateOfMind. A successful cover version by #BetteMidler was released in 1990.

Listen to this or find it on YouTube. Worth. It. Plus, #ChristineLavin absolutely rules. Get to know her. This hilarious ditty hails from way back in 2019, so, the first term with this… this… guy.

Added: Andre Catrini to the list of performers singing ‘Songs of Hope’ at Urban Stages, 259 West 30th St, NYC, Sunday December 15 at 7:00 p.m. Tix: $35. Urbanstages.org

She’s a folk legend, lives in NYC and is known in the Philly folk scene.

Glad you like her

#christineLavin is a treasure and that song is intense! She’s got many other greats, humorous like Amoeba Hop and Sensitive New Age Guys
