@herid I dearly love this song, particularly Trenet's rendition.

I'd like to work it up for my set list if there's a world where I can go out performing as a singer again.

@AdaraAstin yes, Ternet's version is also my favorite. But as I like this song so much I listened to a bunch of other covers too. I like this one also:

@herid Thank you for the link. I'm listening right now and it's enchanting.
