  • Hi Jim -

    A wonderful rendition of this beautiful song. I like your arrangement very much. All the stars and two thumbs up on this one.

    Rey

  • wow, this is really amazing. my dad used to play this for me before bed.. and i always wanted to learn how to play it.. now i think i'm going to ask him to teach it to me.

  • Jimmy, GREAT song for you. You sang this with so much feeling and it really brings out your fantastic talent, not only as a singer but as a guitar player..! All the stars allowed and millions more my sweet friend.5*****

    Smiles and Hugs, Joyce :):)xx

  • Dear Joyce, thanks so much for your very sweet compliment, you sure know how to make a guy feel like a million bucks!

  • I don't know how to describe this other than magnificently haunting.

  • Thanks very much for the great compliment Landon!!

  • Beautiful cover Jim. Jim Croce was a great singer who died far too young. 5 *****.

  • true that my friend!

  • hi jim, great job my friend,5 stars, yeah super germany t-shirt :--)

  • hey Uwe, thanks my man! I'm wearing this same shirt in my "Soul Love" vid.

  • jimmymac30-another great version of another Croce classic! Did you see my vid of " I've Got A Name"?-Jerry

  • That guitar is not one that I liked when I owned one but you make it sound quite good. I have browsed your Vids and have subcribed as you are a very good entertainer.

  • I subbed you back buddy! Thanks for the great review. I look forward to exploring your catalogue. ~ Jim (I'm not crazy about my guitar either, if I could find a better one and get a good trade-in price for this one, I'd do it. )

  • I totally missed out on this video of yours. It was pretty moving. You dit his melancholy melody absolutely great. How an acoustic guitar and a great voice can move a heart, wow. I think Jim (Croce) would like this, it's a great tribute to his performing and songwriting. It's sad how this song became his own theme song when he died...

    Great job my friend. Absolutely touching.

    By the way, great "Germany" T-Shirt ;-)

  • I always considered it a wonderful song, expressing much feeling. Some of my contemporaries disagree, arguing the song is absurdly sentimental. It's nice to know that someone of your generation can appreciate it like I did when I was your age.

    Thanks for your fine comment and compliment! ~ Jimmy

  • excellent cover :)

  • I'm only mildly familiar with "The Chair" - I'll check it out though to see if something I could do - Thanks again!
