i play bass in a rock band, we are taking on a very talented kid of 22 to play keyboards, he asked me what my influenses were, no doubt expecting me to say led zep or perhaps ad/dc, i said cat stevens, he said "who"

i'll send him this link

[happysusannechen]

I have heard many different visions of this song. I like the way you express yourself in this song accompany with Kris's cello and Patrick's piano. Slow tempo and your facial expression make your version the best. Thank you so much! Susanne : )

[snekjack]

Awesome, good job. The lyric 'no one can reach her' I thought was 'see her' - there a couple of versions or did you decide to change it yourself?

[jgawkows]

@snekjack

thank you for the kind comment - as for the lyrics - i did change them in a couple places as you mentioned - i wanted to personalize it a little bit to what i was singing about - thanks again for taking the time to comment - johnG

Hi again John, I realize that was a very short commentary, I had to be somewhere. I really enjoyed listening to your take on a song I had forgotten, though I used to listen to it a lot! I love how you took your time with it, and your voice, it also got me pretty choked up. Thank you!

[lara7blinky]

Wow!

[jgawkows]

@lara7blinky
