Buffy Sainte-Marie - 'Universal Soldier'

This is a video of Buffy singing 'Universal Soldier' on the BBC4 programme 'Songwriters Circle' that was recorded at Porchester Hall back in June and first broadcast on 14 October 2011.  This song got the biggest ovation of the evening - thanks to whoever downloaded it and posted it on YouTube.


Buffy sang 'Until It's Time For You To Go', a harrowing 'Cod'ine', 'Little Wheel Spin And Spin', 'I'm Gonna Be A Country Girl Again', 'Up Where We Belong' and 'Universal Soldier'. She also sang along with Roger Cook on 'You've Got Your Troubles' and with Donovan on 'Colours'.  That means that the BBC has high definition video of Buffy singing 'Piney Wood Hills' and 'Still This Love Goes On' that, hopefully, we'll see at some point.  How do I know this?  Because I was there for the recording.
