If a remake is ever done in the near future,Scott Caan will paly Voights role and Emile Hirsch will play Hoffmans role!

[4yn5]

Foderam a música.

[RobbieIsRob]

great job lads....your version is defo more upbeat than film...the song in general has that beautiful, tragic thing about it... which is so fitting....keep rockin!

[jefit]

I wonder how different this might sound on a keyboard. Anyway, a moving song from a memorable movie. Nice job.

[Fuzzyboy1976]

i got a band and we play this song with organ and slide guitar believe is our best tune that people love to hear !

[damianbegley]

Ummm...the Academy Awards and the Oscars are the same thing. "Midnight Cowboy," brilliant as it is, won only three Oscars, but they were big ones: Best Picture (Jerome Hellman), Best Director (John Schlesinger) and Best Screenplay Adaptation (Waldo Salt, from James Leo Herlihy's novel).

John Barry's score was beautiful.

thanx for sharing the AcadAwds & Oscars as being the 'same thing' to my attention. and 'many awards' is an exaggeration, which i'd not correctly described in context - more of meaning collectively from many different award events (not just the Oscars.) again, thanks for the comment. (~);}

[BooBooLane]

What a great rendition.

And how did not Hoffman and Voigt not win best actors? Never again did they come a million light years close to such performances.

Li'l Cap'n Travis has a new CD release out titled 'Twilight On Sometimes Island' and it's a masterpiece. I pity the fool who doesn't check it out. But, really, it's a pretty nice recording. LCT at its best. Mad props to the Bubble studio and Frenchie. (~);}

I love this movie and theme. I am New Yorker, and love Time Square/

[DAH404]

That was good stuff. I am having flashbacks already.

[blookup]

There's a lot of love going on there.

[SchwagmasterJT]

sounds great guys that song sends chills up your spine.

[TryLSDnow]

Sorry, but the mic info is an ancient Chinese secret. Not. Sony EMC something. Good $100 range external mic. Doesn't clip out or distort, in my experience.

[cflatt]

good version. what kinda mic do you use?

[katbeth2]

wow, amazing.

[TryLSDnow]

This theme song haunted me for over 30 years. After the performance, the band told me the title and explained it was the theme to Midnight Cowboy. Shortly afterwards, I rented the 1969 movie - Wow. A must see. Dustin Hoffman & Jon Voight were brilliant! The movie won many Academy Awards and Oscars. See it!

The saddest thing I've ever heard. Almost painful to listen to.

[Notawesomeatall7]

I think it's interesting it's sad for you, I find it stir up happy feelings for me. But I have you a thumbs up, because it's cool we can both see different things in it.
