  • Oh gosh that brought tears to my eyes. Your voice is beautiful. This is, without a doubt, the best version of Aubrey I've heard on youtube, including the original. Fantastic stuff!!! :-)

  • Brilliant....great voice and talent.

  • Great voice!

  • Very nice!

  • It feels like you have lived that song!

  • very pretty

  • I thought you were David Gates too...

    Lovely I think Im getting a crush on you now

    Helenx

  • very nice-and sweet!

  • thanks for the kind words

  • who is the man in the video singing this?

  • i am the guy - me

  • believe it or not, i thought maybe you were david gates himself...that is how good you sound

  • wow. thanks for the kudos

  • I was named after this song. I truly appreciate the way you've kept it's delicate demeanor intact. Thank you.

  • thanks for recognizing the interpretation choice. the song is so full of longing and despair, yet immense love and a feeling of resolve for the broken heart - gates had un-obsessive perspective in the lyric

  • And Aubrey was her name,

    A not so very ordinary girl or name.

    But who's to blame?

    For a love that wouldn't bloom

    For the hearts that never played in tune.

    Like a lovely melody that everyone can sing,

    Take away the words that rhyme it doesn't mean a thing.

  • beautiful lyrics and great voice

  • amazing tune isn't it - thanks for commenting

  • I started listening by accident and continued to listen purposefully. Lovely talent you have.

  • sweet of you - thanks

  • You're really good, I enjoy it so much....

  • thanks for listening

  • very impressive.

  • thanks very much

  • My hometown hero from Tulsa, you've manage to pay homage to Gates in such a way that pleases my ears. Also, that last note you hit was reminiscent of Dave Matthews.

  • in ever knew he was fromTulsa - i have stories about Tulsa. :) thanks for commenting

  • Very nice voice, good to hear.

  • I love your voice! It takes me back to summer and being 17.

    Thanks for all the wonderful memories.

  • Wow, man. Perfect control of your 6 string and your voice. The phrasing is wonderful. I've only ever heard David's version, but this one too made me tear up. Great job on this song.

You have a beautiful voice never stop singing
