Sorry, I do not understand your question very well.

Louisa was born in 1981, and Emily in 1987.

The song was originally written for the movie Highlander in 1986, when Louisa was 5 y.o. and Emily was not born yet.

The BBMDA version was recorded by Ian and Belinda and released in Summer 1989, when Louisa was 8 y.o. and Emily was 6 y.o.

The demo version that appears on the 12" single is credited to Louisa, and could have been recorded any time between 1986 and 1989, when Louisa was between the ages of 5 and 8.

I listened to that version several years ago (I did not know it had been officially relelased, but someone gave me an mp3): it sounds clearly like a very little girl, much younger than Ian and Belinda.

My guess is that Brian was involved in the project "WWTLF sung by children" early in 1989 and initially thought to have his elder daughter Louisa sing his song; then he realised she was not good enough for a commercial release and auditioned some young singers for the final recording. But he wanted to keep Louisa's demo on the record as a "filler".

Still, mine is only a guess - I only know for sure that it is Louisa and that she was between the ages of 5 and 8.

Oh dear. Ask me again once you've passed third grade...
Louisa's version of that song is so cute. I can't tell the difference between Ian or Belinda in the second one. Smile.

-Lol, that doesn't make any sense xD When Louisa was 5, Emily wasn't born, but when she was 8, Emily was 6? Haha :P

Sorry, but couldn't help commenting it :b

I've never heard that version!? Ö
Adn btw, if you wanna watch the version with Belinda and Ian, just go search on youtube.com =D
I'm going slightly mad

Isn't she getting married soon?
Hey Adam Baboolal, this files sounds to me like a reworked Belinda-Ian song. The voice tone changes (exactly where in Belinda's and Ian's song the voices alternate): I don't know who made this but he's a genius when it comes to remix songs. He played it fast then slowed it done, changed the tone.
I don't know if anyone else has listened to this, but it doesn't sound like a little girl to me.

It doesn't sound like a little girl??? What makes you think that? Sounds like one to me. And I don't know how you've linked this to the Ian/Belinda version which is totally different.

Adam.
I have recently heard the song, well a month ago, and it sounds like a little girl. Wickipedia said Louisa was only about eight when she sang it.

I am not psychic and therefore was not aware of the fact at the time. However the point is valid - she was asking for links AFTER it was named as "official". Poor choice of words doesn't make me wrong.
