It is sod wonderful to see a young man sing this song with so much passion. He is absolutely singing this song. Now this is what music and talent sounds like. Great job Danny,keep up the good work!
MAN,Danny....You're tearing it UP!I'd love to have you on our net radio shows!You can get at me at clayspoundsofsoundATgmailDOTcom You can send tracks,epk's,bio,photos,and anything else!I also write music reviews for several online publications,and I'd love to open some of my readers ears up to your mastery!Get at me.Thank you,and God Bless-clay phillips
Young man while you sound just wonderful, I am ole school, and appreciate the vocals of Donny Hathaway, not to take anything from you, because you are gifted in your own right.
Brother,your voice and the band locked in SO good...I don't know if these are your normal cats,but if they're not,then that's DOUBLY IMPRESSIVE....Most singers can't pull it off in front of a "new" band,not like THAT anyway.You're doing it to death,and I'd love to have you on my net radio show,Clay's Pounds Of Sound...YOU ARE NOT JUST A TALENT,but a STAR!Peace,brother-clay phillips-clayspoundsofsoundATgmailDOTcom
I hope you're still checking in from time to time--I wanted to say Thank You for making my whole Sunday! What a breathtakingly beautiful, goose-bump-evoking voice you have. May you be world-famous veryverysoon.
Hey best of luck...you are on the road to true success and you've got the soul inside and out to make it through. Warm wishes to you and your family. Hey what the heck when can I buy your cd?
I love this guy. He took the Best of Donnys and put his own spin on it. That's keeping it reeal. (Sometimes too much spinnnnnn @ the end) Brothers got soooul though.
Danny!!! You can sing already. What are you trying to prove? Take 20 milligrams of valium and a couple of beers and do it again. Leave the vocal acrobatics to the silly little white girls.
TEARS OF JOY! I think I've died and gone 2 heaven or reached Nirvana or something. I am SOOH glad that there are men out there that can sing with so much soul. Maxwell is my permanant fix.I was checking out Donny H. and came across Danny I'm still getting my breath back! Just wonderfull, he's truly gifted.
The arranger and conductor's name is Tom Stein. He is a professor in the Professional Music Department at Berklee and played with Al Kooper on Bass for some years, including on his record "Black Coffee" from 2003.
Excellent. Not too many sing with this kind of passion any more. Most modern singing is about precision and sounding like the latest fad without an ounce of soul. When I hear modern hip hop singers it seems they all sound the same. It's all about the producer.
you'd be well received and appreciated on broadway. you obviously have a nact for acting considering all the drama u brought to that stage. well done, bruh.
Aye yall, I'm at "Awe" about the comments you all have left me. You're most appreciated! I apologize for not reaching back to all of you. But I ask that you please count it against my head and not my heart. 'Cause I've got nothin' but Luv for yall! Keep on the look out though. With Prayer and Hard Work I hope to change the game. But the main reason why it would happen is because of the support I get from yall. So, THANK YOU TO THOSE OF YOU THAT SUPPORT ME AND ARE GOING TO SUPPORT ME. 1 LUV!
Why is this young making more music? We are losing some of our best ballad singers like Lou Rawls, Luther,& Gerald Levert. This youg man can easily step in and fill a vacant spot. I wish him much success in a world that seems to favor hype over true talent.
You betta sang boy!!! Wow what a great rendition of this song! All you need is a fine man to pull you to the dance floor and hold you tight. Thanks for posting this.
A brilliant Al Kooper song from the 1st Blood, Sweat & Tears LP c1967/8. As I've got that original vinyl LP and a Japanese CD issue of it I prefer the original to Donnie Hathaway's but this is just as good. A nice 5* cover version of the BS&T song here apparently done in 2004.
Berklee College of Music Alumni, you don't understand music, like a true musician, so respect the style and essence of a great singer and musician. One day in the next 20 years hopefully you will understand the craft of a soul singer. Know where a person came from and how they've grown in order to respect the gift of song. This negative feedback is only motivation for things to come. TRUST, YOU'LL BE BUYING HIS ALBUM IN THE NEXT FEW YEARS! MILLIONS WILL BE WATCHING HIM SOON, INCLUDING YOU!!!!
danny sky high is danny sky high and not a clone of hatteway or mc comb.so don't compare this man with them.he has his owne personality in his voice and remember he isnt 5o jears old , so normally he will grow a lot in the next years.kees
well ceetee21,idon't think you understand dutch, as well you don't understand what a good singer this is .i will translate my letter.don't you have something better to do than burn this man down, i think you can't sing yourself ,otherwise you must hear he knows all aspects of singing ,got soul ,blues and a lot of feeling in his voice.so shut up and flesh yourself through the toilet .greatings kees
I'm not burning this man down.I said he could sing but thestandard set by Donny is almost impossible to match with the exception being Frank McComb.Your real brave with your ideal threats! Grow up...
2words Frak McComb. Frank is the only person who can capture the true essence of Donny Hathaway on a musical and vocal level.The young man on the video has nice voice but he not anywhere near Donny Hathaway.
His voice is alright but the delivery lacks direction.The band is not playing with any soul at all!... Go back and listen to Donny Hathaway singing this song live and then you'll understand how this is supposed tobe delivered both musically and vocally.
I get confused, isnt this a cover of a song. Why are people held to such precise expectations, when it is clearly obvious nobody will ever sing LIKE Donny. But I guess I understand your expectations since Donny set them so HIGH!!! Its just hard for the rest of us mere mortals to reach those heights ...lol peace
There is very good. Perormances by B,S +T and Hathaway were very good. This man's performance is brilliant. Surpassing all standards...game...set...match.
Yeah I think he did a great job, I was commenting on the comments that people are leaving. I dont compare anyone to Donny, I didnt think anyone else should either. no more no less. peace
Danny I missed this showcase. I was just listening to this song on my iPod & so I got on YouTube to see if I could find Donny singing it live and there you are. You the man. See you in a couple weeks.
I wish my father was here to see this young man sing his lungs out...Oh what a voice...but most of all the determination to give praise to Donny the the Master
Hey thanks for the comment. IT TRUELY IS AN HONOR TO HEAR THAT (read this, but you know what I mean) You and everyone on this page are well appreciated. Giving me more enthusiasm for my hustle. Thanks again!!!
Skyhigh, you're the man! Sometimes i hear some Peabo Bryson in your voice (is that any way for a man to carry on. The way you embraced this song covered me with goosebumps. Definitely wanna see you on stage here in the Netherlands.
OOOOH, I really appreciate that comment HustleB. DEFINATELY AN HONOR. We'll see how the world respond to me when I'm done with the album. But thanks again!
You did this song justice man. I didn't think anyone could do this song as impressive as the late great Donny Hathaway, but you did and made it your own. Great job!
