I was smiling at the four members of the audiance in the footage that I didn't notice the singer wasn't Jim Reeves,...but still a commendable effort. Of course Gentleman Jim, like Nat 'King' Cole, only had to open his mouth and the smooth and perfect pitch flows out !!
But of course there's a simpler way to avoid the trademark violation. I didn't see it in your site, but, a disclaimer of sort will suffice. Besides it's not as if you're getting paid by YouTube in producing this video. So you are safe. Just put a disclaimer saying you are doing a rendition of a Jim Reeve's song. No problemo.
@4hatmaker It's a decent rendition of a Jim Reeve's song, I'll give him that. But as for using the Jim Reeve's name to lure the public into a false sense that they are actually listening to the real artist, that's a trademark violation and subject to investigation by the FBI. To be safe, I suggest the owner of this site shut it down ASAP or face getting caught. It's 5 years jail time or $250,000 fine or both.
I will agree that this singer has a nice voice...and I've always loved this song...but can't understand why the title includes the name of the late great Jim Reeves. One of life's great mysteries I suppose...such as the mystery as to whether there really are rings around Uranus.
I'm a great Jim Reeves fan, but have to admit that this version by whoever it is is very good. Maybe put the word 'cover' in the title? Congrats to the singer anyway - very nice!
Just because the gentleman didn't include the word "cover" in his title is no need to be rude. Once you found out it wasn't Jim Reeves singing you could have turned it off. Nice job by the way..you have a good voice!
it is not eddie or jim. it was done by a guy in the czech republic. very good talent. his title was jim reaves, make the world go away because he was trying to show the version he was singing. it is also the guy in the video. amazing those other countries can actually sing our songs in our language. love em like the rest of the world
This guy does a good job singing this song - I'd love to know who he is. He doesn't sound like Jim or Eddie - or Elvis - but has a pleasant voice. Nice pictures of the forest and other locations. I've always loved this song -
I typed in "Eddy Arnold Make The World Go Away (Original)" and the other song sounded like a duplicate of this one. I could be wrong. The man in the picture might be the one who had the video done.
Thanks for your comments here - it probably being the man who made the video doing the singing. When any of our local musicians sing this song - even the unprofessional ones - it sounds pretty good because the song itself is so pretty. Thanks. - Paula
I must admit it would have been wonderful if the great Jim Reeves had covered this fantastic song, such a great pity as I think his version would have been better than Eddy Arnolds 1966 version. As Jim tragically was killed in 1964 we shall never know.
Jim did record this song at his last Studio B session on July 2, 1964. In fact, Jim recorded his version before Eddy Arnold recorded his, but Eddy's was released first. Jim's version appeared on the posthumous LP "The Jim Reeves Way", and there is a posting of it on YouTube, or at least, there was not long ago. Maybe it's been removed.
P.S. This is definitely not Jim Reeves' version, as the other posters have pointed out. Jim's version is arranged much differently from Eddy Arnold's version. This version is arranged very similar to Eddy's version. It's very good, but it's not Eddy Arnold.
