my only complaint is the lack of syncopation in the vocals, as Van would do. that aside, this is completely awesome guys! the energy is through the roof. great tones and clarity. very pro ! you guys still together? when you coming to Illinois? i'd buy a ticket in a heartbeat! :)
i usually hate van covers because they are, well, terrible. but this is pretty okay, which is saying a lot for anyone taking on this type of material.
I have never heard anyone sing Van like this guy...Absolutely awesome!!!! Joe Cocker does a great job too with this song....But, this guy is phenominal...He's got a certain soul that makes you feel the music and the lyrics just like when Van does it! Nice work boys!!!
EXCELLENT version of this song! WOW! I never thought I'd want to give more than 5 stars for any cover song, but here-- the arrangement with the tinkling of the keyboards, the vocals, it's all in place here. Van the Man - imitation is the highest form of flattery, eh?
Cette version est tout simplement grandiose, un monument musical. Elle dégage autant (sinon plus) d'émotions que la bande originale du film "The Last Waltz" qui est déjà le summum des meilleures versions jamais chantée par Van Morrison ...
Excellent Van The Man cover, guys. But the suits at "Exile," which is Van's record company of the moment, are being way too aggressive.
Funny how the Caravan track from Last Waltz was pulled from YT, yet lots of other artist performances from Waltz are still all over YT.
Exile, you have no history with our Van, so you need to sit down and chill out. No one's impressed by your fascist "copyright" tactics. How much are you helping Van by getting his fans pissed at both you and YT?
@TheKatkins Sadly, YouTube pulled it, I believe due to some infringement issues. A shame too, I was enjoying listening to it whilst stuck on campus computers!
Really,really enjoyed this.Thanks for posting this.The band really rocked and great singer.Used to be a great Van fan but to tell the truth have went off him as he is not prepared to share on u-tube
Hi A great version ..I think Van would be proud of it...great energy
