[dmio2]

cool video. great story telling.

[MonkeylessJohn]

And I forgot to tell you how wonderful your performance is !!! And the video is excellent!!!

This really is a classic song!!!

[Johnfern99]

Thanks so much, John, and I'm sure Terrence appreciates it too. The first time I heard the original, it just bowled me over and even though I couldn't capture the reality of his version, it was a ball for me to sing and to put the vid together.

[MonkeylessJohn]

Man!!! This is an amazing song John!!!

God!! what an incredible melody, and the lyrics are just classic!!!

[Ottawarocket]

Really good song John and tribute to miners .Great Video also. You must put a lot of hard work into these vids : )

[Johnfern99]

Thanks Rob! This one wasn't too bad, I think I spent more time on the song than gathering the pics, but I like it.

[raymondcrooke]

A great song and excellent cover.

[Johnfern99]

Thanks Raymond! Glad ya liked it and when ya can, check out the original, it's got a much more authentic sound!

[desertlight]

This song has real star power. I hope you'll encourage Terrence Jent to get it in front of some major country singers.  Your rendition was smooth and interesting. It shows the commercial potential. I could easily see Randy Travis or Garth Brooks singing this!

[Johnfern99]

Thanks so much, Desertlight! I appreciate that and I'm sure Terrence does too. Check out his original if you want to hear much better authenticity.

[pattyannsmith]

Wow! John! This is a priceless song...and your version of it is so very Beautiful!!!!

And the thought provoking pictures are worth "a thousand words", aren't they, my friend. I hope you're having a wonderful weekend! ~ Patty

[Johnfern99]

Thanks so much, Patty! I'm glad you enjoyed it! I kind of stole the whole idea of the pics from the original, but I like to think I would have done it that way too.

[JLSTaylor]

Great one, John. You have such an ear and eye for doing historical-type songs. You should be the official singer-songwriter for The History Channel or something. ~ :o) Marina

[Johnfern99]

Thanks Marina! Hey, where do I sign? That sounds like a great gig!

[ronerin]

Thanks so much! I thought that was the best part. I've been wanting to do a cover of your song, and I wanted to do it in spanish, but I didn't realize how difficult it would be for someone who doesn't speak it. If I can ever come close, I'll go for it.
