a great piece of AMERICANA, one of the all time greats.....i just saw micheal buble version and it sucked!!! leave the classics alone, write youre own shit!!!!
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
I think if we were looking at "The World's Shittiest Song", it would have to be the one you came up with.......NOTHING....what are your credentials?......Shithead!
Billy wrote this song dudes... NOBODY sings it like this guy and even Billy Vera now doesn't get into it like in this particular piece... I guess you sing it so much its hard to feel the same but here its sung like nobodys business.. WOW if it doesn't stir you then you have problems... All thes other interpretattions are polished profeccional but none feel it like this dude!!
Billy Blows Marco away at this song cmon, if you think Marco is better Elaborate,.. Billy has better talent, range and tone, and Marco cuts every ending chorus short while Billy Carries it with vibrato, cmon if u think Marco is better explain why if you know what your talking about... great job Billy you are the originator and the best by far..Michael is a close secong but he jazzez it up to much and its not as raw as yours!
so many guys I have cried over, listening to this song. then I met the one i wanted to spend my life with.... he recently died and that line i'd subtact 20 yrs from my life take on such heartaching new meaning, and all those others are just an embarrassment. I'll miss you forever, Richard
@kamlatamarw: I lost my wife of 48 years on the 5th of Feb 2011, I can feel you heartache because that is what I feel now. Please take care and live your life to the fullest, I'm sure that is what Richard would have wanted you to do.
yea, I hear you. Have you been able to access his myspace page? or mine? you can see it, but can not access info unless u have an acct....and if u dont,, why not get one? I will be your first freind there!! lol
truly a beautiful prefomance ! love it anytime i hear this song i stop dead in my tracks and listen to the beauty and the sincerity in his voice and it is priceless.
Try and get a hold of his other songs Bodygurl. Whether in paint, words or music, some artists seem to be able to show the feeling you and I have. And that is why it is called art. BV is one of the artists that does that to me.
nonotahero, okay, I talked with him via myspace last nite, and he said the 11 minute cut of "here comes the dawn again" is on the first album "Hopeless Romantic" and is available on ITunes, and Amazon on C.D.. Hope that helps. Trudy
Chatted a while yesterday with Billy Vera. Really neat to re-connect with old musician freinds from Calif, most of the musician freinds I have run into by accident via myspace.....would never have been able to re-connect with these old freinds/ people without myspace.!!
If you do again, please ask him to make one of his best ever available for me? The song is called: here comes the dawn again. I would like a copy to be played at my funeral.
he has alot of staying power. He is still around, at his mid-sixties, still performs weekly with one of his best sax players Lon Price, in Studio City, occasionally the beaters all get together, and tour, plus he is paid to be a music historian. So he has made his "mark" in the industry, and is still writing and recording new songs. He has achieved alot more than people realize.
I adore this song too......that's why this song is so beautifull..in dreams we wish we meet someone that we will kissed the ground that they walk by....in dreams :-)
Powerful song, touches your heart..enough to bring back sweet memories and make you cry, but at the end..it gives you renewed energy, to pick up your self and move on.
Chrissy maybe I'll get lucky, and maybe you'll look down here and see this, maybe not, luck isn't on my side of the path these days.But if by chance you do....In my life there have been friends and I have had lovers, but never , before I met you, did I have both. I am just a man, and I'm finding that there is more responciblity that comes with being a man. I only wish I had discovered it before I met you. Now I guess I'm gonna pay for it.
this song is the living and breathing definition of beautiful music. The way in which that man sings that song, is so perfect, it almost leaves me breathless.

Perhaps in a tv show called Family ties (with Michael J. Fox as Alex Keaton). It kinda was the love theme there when he met his true love.
