[Gothmedic212]

Very Very well done!!! From a firefighter you do this song Honor and to the men that went before... Thanks.

[lgcrooks]

Hey, buddy. Excellent version. You capture the emotion.

Bin there as a ground crew chief. Had to make decisions as a 22-year old and thankfully, I was never faced with this.

I relied on the experienced guys in my crew - mostly First Nations, Native American, whatever we call them - Indians!! Guys who had been through that many times and taught young, white college students who were appointed their bosses, how it should be done!

It's too bad the crew didn't have faith in their leader. So sad.

[UbiDuboi]

buddy, you play it the way i heard James Keelaghan play it...i have seen other stuff you do...but this is first rate...thank you soo much!

[atthedonnerparty]

my father used to sing this song, your rendition is excellent, keep it up!

[kgwickings]

If you haven't sung it yet, you should sing the Bill Staines song The Lost Mine of Chisos.. you would sound great with that too!!

[kgwickings]

Very nice voice and inflection.

[UbiDuboi]

you do a great job my friend, i love this song soooooo much, and i would tell you...trust me

great job

nice enuff voice too

[newfiefiddler]

Thanks for all the wonderful comments folks... it is a beautiful song!!

[UbiDuboi]

what i just said

great rendition

i love this song, if 'love' is the proper word

[elmdia]

I came to Youtube to hear James Keelaghan sing it...but yours is better!!! You truly do bring all the emotion to the song and more.

[jaalamae]

We took our seasonal fire crew employees to the Mann Gulch fire this past summer...this song really sums up the emotions that were experienced there. Here's to all that give their lives doiing one of the greatest jobs in the world.

[johnnygnote]

Amazing, amazing song. Great rendition. Absolutely haunting and pure. Thank you so much for posting this!

[UbiDubi1A]

Until i started searching for versions of this song there were none, you should thank me! This is better than average, you could work on your timing, but i cannot play a note on anything, so what do i know? Thanks, buddy, decent rendition.

[Abbaodin]

It's a brave man that tackles a James Keelaghan song - the master singer/songwriter - so well done, you captured the atmosphere and emotion of the original recording!

[Grubbox]

Blown away dude. Love this one so much. You bring emotion through perfectly. Cheers

[newfiefiddler]

Thanks bud.... it is easy to do this when the song is so well written.
