[charligirlangel]

I love you in a place...where there's no space or time, Shawn...♥Love, Charli♥

[Cokili24]

I was 5 when they akked us in kindergardin who was ur fav singer. Most of the kids answerd 'Seka Aleksic' or 'Ceca Raznatovic' but I had to be different... My fav singers or bands were Simply Red and Van Morrison. Now I'm 15 and my oppinion hasn't changed a bit!

[misred1]

@Cokili24 haha you got your mind right,Van M was my fav when I was 15 still is at 57 and Simply Red ,well we both know about Simply red :)

[MrAidan1998]

extremely well done video

[sweetangel2002u]

Nice rendition. he stayed true to Donny Hathaways version, which I think is the best of all.

[8492grob]

a beautiful rendition could listen to this all day bravo mick

[wiudiva]

that was amazing... very art type feel to the vid..... I have may be 3 version by diff artists trying to cover this song but this one is the best ...... thank you so much for putting it up for others to view and enjoy

[8492grob]

simply wonderful

[charligirlangel]

~Shawn....I love you in a place....where there's no ...space or time...♥ Charli ♥ I Love You !....i know your image of me.....is what I hope to be ♥

[thumlyly]

Simply Red sounds so black, that seeing the slightly chubby white guy in the old Buick looks like only the lip-synching it is. Leon had a poor voice at best, but it was also a fitting part of his songs. And without his brilliant piano...well, I will not bother with this guy again, and will gladly go back to Leon.

[jcginroak]

This is second only to Ray Charles

[1le2a]

os jovens,micke,pensam ke envelhecer e o fim,enganan-se,pois ficamos mais bonitos no exterior e interior,experiencia,faz agirmos com perfeiçao em cada ato ke praticamos,ja n temos,os arroubos de ke tudo e pra sempre,embora sabendo o jovem ser lindo,mais n se conhece e sofri,por nda,te amo,linda cançao,te amo micke.

[gawl3in]

=D many memories..  all this song is completly a poem...thanks "DGR"..)

[martiin5678]

I quite Like This but Whitney's version is miles better.

[galina370]

Отличный клип , прекрасная песня, Мик- замечательный!!!

[Charliegirl3000]

Mick Hucknall is doin'great but i dont forget who wrote this

leon Russel is the man .... but Chapeau mick! :D

[charligirlangel]

~~Shawn...I love you ...in a place...where there is...no space or time....Charli ♥

[PrinzeschenKitty]

Beautiful! This song is makes me cry

[ely75ful]

Numero UNO!

[ely75ful]

Grande Mick, qualsiasi canzone canti sei e resterai il numero UNO!!

[FlowerGirl289]

kocham Cię:* nasze spotkanie już niedługo:*

[perpettuumm]

Razbija, ko god da je otpjeva.. Fenomenalna  je.. :)

[ciccacarmen1]

8OCEANO (1 giorno fa)

Ci sono momenti in cui sento ancora la sua bocca sfiorarmi le labbra e le sue dita eplorare le mie guancie e poi infilarsi nei miei capelli ...e il suo odore fra i miei.....ma non è un ricordo no, è come se in un attimo sposto ogni parte di me, al "noi" a quell'altrove che sai.....Ti amo cucciolo....e sarà per sempre!!!!

[solemoose]

Mick has a rare gift. One of the best.

[jjs499]

LEON RUSELL, BLESS YOU FOR THIS GIFT, AND CONGRATS FOR YOUR " HALL OF FAME INDUCTION"...IT WAS WORTH THE WAIT...YOU ARE AND ALWAYS WERE, OUTTA SITE!!!!!!!

[radekO7777]

[suzi8033]

[mimivegan]

a d o r o

[krzaqabc]

It's the best interpretatnion, congratulations !

[xango2001]

Hey folks, this version is so so, luke warm at best... To hear an AMAZING and DEFINITIVE version of this song listen to Donny Hathaway's version. Whitney Houston also does it justice.

[ez244]

como soñe hacerle escuchar esta cancion y ver un atardecer juntos.....

MALDITO MIEDO A LA DISTANCIA QUE TUBISTE!

[bushbaby001]

Simply Red: "Joi de vivre'! Mercie beaucoup!

[aided2000]

though your are getting old, and yet your amazing voice never faded,,,they are right you've got magnetic voice that irresistible to listen,,, i never get tired to click your video every night before i sleep wheew!!

[aided2000]

i got relaxation feelings whenever i click this clip of you,,,hi!! mick your music is the taste of my music ever!!!

[bflymag]

this is one the best covers of this song...BFLY

[katakombe0607]

<3

[EchtePoekel]

SUCSK!

[digger7106]

@EchtePoekel nobody can touch Leon. however ,this is one of the better covers of a long list of soulless hacks that ruined this song

[colormiele]

I think this is the best version and it moves me infinitely! number one

[ShiverC0ld]

What a beautiful masterpiece a real unique song unlike others I'm probably the only kid who likes this song.

[Cokili24]

@ShiverC0ld Nop, we both like this miracle. I'm 15, but I fell in love with it 5 years ago... I totally agree with you. When you say 'a kid' on what ages do you think?

[shadownsand]

....SIMPLY...sensational !!!!!

LoVe ! ♥

[emmettk]

The piano in this song as well as the arrangement was originally done 33 years earlier by the late Donny Hathaway. Check out that version and you will readily see the influence. If you are impressed by the interpretation, then Donny Hathaway deserves the credit.

[emmettk]

The piano is not original. It was done in 1972 by Donny Hathaway. Check out his version and you will easily see the influence. If you were impressed by the interpretation, then Donny Hathaway deserves the credit.

[FreeCubana]

Cool!!!!

[emu168]

love the piano in this song

[amvdamian]

amazing rendition!

was that 'naked' girl on the mtv supposed to be the guys mistress? or is she the same girl on the end of the video?

[adreambeach]

nice remake of a fantastic song... this belongs on  adreambeach....

[spiderz06]

Most versions I have heard are very good, and Mick's better than most,.. thanks to Leon's magical lyrics,music, and genius,..,but I have simply never heard a better version than Ray Charles's.

[laurita1987rich]

micky love your musssiic

[giselaverzola2006]

smooth version!

[stellaperte]

Ilove his song, and this video give a perfect feeling, like u are there

[Meggraziani]

This music is very very moving

[SoulmanDH]

I love that car, nice classic car

[kawkawa48]

one of the most amazing songs I've ever heard ... A hymn to love...(l) Mon Miz

[leo6bello]

great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ssoko]

A nice tribute to Ray Charles. Not a single note has been changed in this version.

(But I prefer Carpenters's version)

[colindlynch]

WOW I am not the biggest Simply Red fan and love Donny Hatthaways version of this but I have to say Mick and the boys well done on this a really really good version.

[colormiele]

I adore this song and especially this interpretation!

I would listen it endlessly. I find it amazing!

Questo brano e soprattutto questa interpretazione mi piace da morireeeee!

..l'ascolterei all'infinito, è troppo bella!

[epsonstylusc92]

Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

[WhatPlanetAreYouOn]

This is my favourite version

[lconeill1949]

This song sounds a lot like Christina Augularios version.I think she sings it a even a little slower than this.

[jayjay4000]

His version is based on Donny Hathaway's arrangement. Donny's is still the best version.

[MsNefertitis]

linda cancion , interpretada en la habana , cuba,,,

[gwynforhood]

fimed in havana, the place where theres no space or time

nice one mick

[gwynforhood]

[oldgypsytap]

The cinematographer is a bloody genius! 

[oldgypsytap]

I can't believe I just discovered this amazing performance. One of the few perfect songs ever written Great rendition....beautifully shot...WOW!!!! .

[Fergus451]

joe cocker does and execellent version of this song also.

[EmanuelTrend]

...really love this song !

[feefee451]

Not a bad version, but Donny Hathaway's version is by far better than any version I have heard, including the original. So soulful and heartfelt.

[judecreek2]

@feefee451 Sorry, I know it's matter of personal taste, the best version is by The Master of Space and Time himself---Leon Russell.

[1960gal]

Adore this song x

Donny's version just has to be the ultimate for me.

But......love Mick's voice, and can't wait to see SR in Brighton on 10 July and @ the 02 on18 Dec. What a great 50th birthday present to myself :)

[sherreed]

simply reds version is very good, but i suggest if you want to be tossed for a loop, listen to Elliott Yamins version it will take your breath away

[1202noz1202]

@sherreed The Carpenters version is superb.

[1202noz1202]

@sherreed The Carpenters version is superb.

[MANHATTANBEEFMAN]

@1202noz1202 - Agreed. The Carpenters did an excellent version - but Ray Charles nailed it - Imho.

[Speedykidd28]

Simply...Beautiful!!!

[Speedykidd28]

Every song you sing is a pleasure!!! Thank you Mick!!!

[Catlovertea4]

The voice and, the melody gets right to the heart of the matter, but wow - without that piano composition, where would it be? Master Leon, thank you, and for every interpreter since then who makes the grade as well. whew-nice. love it.

[inkforhire]

I thank you for your work, which truly lifts me & bonne anne!

[boonesusan]

The song was written by Leon Russell in the late 60's early 70's. I love it by him, but damn Mick does it so much justice.

@68shamoa Hi,

In a talent show in Holland ( x-factor) Kelvin covered this song.

Of course different but maybe nice for you to hear/watch

type/copy: a song for you kelvin

[poes3000]

@68shamoa I think so too. But i also like the version of Kelvin. It's good that a program like x-factor can also be a good platform for realy musical people. Not only for people who have a good voice.
