Ah, but I may as well try and catch the wind …
We’ve been playing this song for a long time. There even is an old video on YouTube of us performing this song live on a radio station almost 10 years ago, and we also played it during one of our MLT Club Livestreams. Not to mention the hundreds of times we’ve performed it live on stage.
We thought it deserved its own properly recorded Duo Session after all these years!
We’ve had the pleasure of meeting Donovan a couple of times over the years! Growing up listening to his music, we’ve always considered him a significant influence on our own musical journey.
We hope you enjoy this Duo Session ♥
The song is available on CD here, or check out the Download version if you don’t want to wait/pay for shipping 🙂
More Duo Sessions
While you can now purchase this song on CD, we ALWAYS debut our Duo Sessions exclusively at the MLT Club first, sometimes months or even years before they’re available elsewhere! Just last week, we posted a rendition of “Dream A Little Dream Of Me” to the MLT Club that isn’t accessible anywhere else or on any CD yet.
Over in the MLT Club we release a new video every single week ranging from Duo Sessions to vlogs, to Q&A videos, etc. We’re also planning on doing another Club exclusive Livestream in a few weeks which we’re VERY excited about!!
So, if you want to get a ton of exclusive content and also enjoy perks like signed albums, receiving birthday greetings, the opportunity to ask us questions, and connecting with fellow fans, please consider joining the Club. Your support not only enables us to create more videos and recordings but also fosters a closer community around our music 🙂
We’d love to have you onboard!

Wonderful.
I hope Donovan has seen this.
Mona & I have had this discussion before.
I wish you two would consider covering Ilse of Islay some time.
Cheers
“When the rain has hung the leaves with tears”, “I want to hide a while behind your smile”. What amazing lyrics. I was young when Donovan was really popular and didn’t realize what a great songwriter he is. I think the song really suits your style too, as the lyrics of the songs on the Why? album are quite comparable. Catch The Wind sounds like it could be an MLT… Read more »
Moving and wonderful. Nostalgic too, as my best mate Dave Lindop and I used to include this song in our busking setlist.
Thank you for sharing with us, simply beautiful.
So beautiful😊!!!
A great rendition, but every time that I watch it I get the impression that Mona is sad. I’m sure things are better.
I hope Mona is just showing off her acting skills. Her mood does fit the song. I get chills when she starts singing on this one.
Of all the Mona’s, Sad Mona is my least favorite.

I believe that is one of the things that attracts me to these ladies…. They become the song. And I did notice that maybe Mona did take a few seconds to come out of it…??🤔🤓🎶
Yet another reason why Mona and Lisa are so loved by us all. They really feel the music. They’re not human jukeboxes; the music’s from the heart; covers and originals, and you can hear it. Lisa’s vocal on this is amazing; there’s technique, yes, and skill, but there’s also that feel for the music. Mona compliments that perfectly, vocally and instrumentally. I am in awe.
i can remember when Donovan used to sing it he got right into it and looked sad think its just the song
Just beautiful ladies.
On this windy Monday morning I listened to this touching Donovan song. It wasn’t the wind, but Mona’s and Lisa’s beautiful voices and Mona’s wonderful harmonica playing that gave me goosebumps.
This is the best and most beautiful Donovan cover ever.
Dear Both. I’ve hear your versions of the number countless time – it gets better and better. Simple love the atmosphere you to give. Thank you very much🤩🤩
Not only do you make my weekends , you even spoil us with a fantastic video of ” catch te wind” .i knew it was written by Donovan, but , up until now my favourite version was sung by Judith Durham, her mesmerising voice made a deep impression on me. The harmonies of your version are heavenly too. Hope the Duo Session 3 will be here soon .I allso hope… Read more »
You probably know this, Eric, but I can’t resist pointing out that Judith’s version was on an album of cover songs titled “Mona Lisas”.
Hello David, thanks for pointing this out,i did not know this and for sure i will look up the album and listen to it.
Would this ” coincedence” have a meaning? Maybe a hint to Mona and Lisa to cover some songs of the Seekers? I am convinced they would make those covers as heavenly as all of their songs.
