great cover Jeff

[jeffstunes]

@websearch333

Thank you. I did have some fun times with my father whilst he was alive. Best of all my daughter got to spend some time with him as a child. Something I didn't get from him.

[CINCYSPEAKERMAN]

I dont know who you are,but may your beautiful people rest in peace!!!:)

[jeffstunes]

@CINCYSPEAKERMAN

Thank you. I think my father's time was up. He was an alcoholic and that was the contributing factor in his death. Do I wish he would have been any different? No. He may have been an alcoholic, but he was happy being one, and I believe that life is to be enjoyed.

[MMARTSS]

RIP u did a gr8 job man!

[alexandraxxxxxx]

Im so sorry for loss xox

[jeffstunes]

Thank you Alexandra. I still have a load of UB40 records, so I know most of their songs. Ali Campbell did a few good ones on his own too.

[rikihotblues]

Yes, touching and a beautiful tribute !!!

[jeffstunes]

Thank you once again :)

[jjthepitbull]

[absongs]

touching

[jeffstunes]

Thank you :)

[marcdylan66]

Hi Jeff, I saw your videos of how to sing and some of your version (Covers) that you did. You really have a nice voice and you sing with heart. I am sorry for your Father and Grandmother. Go after your dreams and hang on and don't let go. Have a nice weekend. Take Care!

[jeffstunes]

Thank you very much :)

Singing and writing is one of the most enjoyable things in my life. It's great that other people like it too. I think the most important thing is that I enjoy doing it, and I most certainly do :)

[susanmauz]

So nice x

[jeffstunes]

Thank you.

[fracolon]

I have never heard that one...I appreciate you sharing. I have no doubt that they will be missed. For every passing there is something new that arives....promise

[chickiesgrettagirl]

sorry for your loss Jeff. I bet your Dad is

smiling . Nice cover and tribute:)

[jeffstunes]

He probably is, and if there is alcohol in heaven, then he'll be at St. Peter's Bar, supping a few rums :)

Thank you :)

[moonstrikerII]

hi jeff sorry about your loved ones i know how u feel i lost my dad on 19th sept sameday he was born on so my sympathies too you and family :)

[jeffstunes]

Thank you very much :)

I'm happy that my father lived his life the way he wanted to. Not everybody was in agreement with that but if you can live in your own way, then what is there to regret? :)

[bedduspicchiu]

complimenti per la tua voce e il video che hai relaizzato bravo!

[jeffstunes]

Thank you once again. I've sung this one many times. Oro should I say grazie :)

[lil059]

[jeffstunes]

Thank you. I've had lots of practice with this one. Lol :)

[tallboy1945]

Can't get this one out of my head,brillient vocal Jeff,IMO better than UB40.

The last photo at the end of the video is just great,showing the love of a grandfather for his grand-daughter...Mike

[jeffstunes]

Thanks Mike. It is a classic song. One he loved. He used to love me singing it at karaoke. It was guaranteed to get him up dancing :)

[patkiely2007]

Nice version of this song and nostalgic images too,your dad would be proud of you,God bless,pat

[jeffstunes]

He was. He loved the fact that I was so deep into music, as it was such a large part of his own life :)

Thank you Pat :)

[RamblinGirl57]

Sorry to hear about your lose I think your Dad would be very pleased! I like the song very much! Keep up the good singing you do ! Always wishing you the best things in life.

[jeffstunes]

Thank you. He was a musician himself, and was proud that I had such a great interest in it.

[LJABC]

This is so beautiful and relaxing Jeff. I can't imagine anyone tiring of it. I find myself singing it over and over again and have even woken up to it for the last couple of mornings, a therapy in itself.

Little Heartless sends her love to you and Veronica Jeff. The pictures are alive, as if it were happening here and now. You look so happy together. A priceless treasure!!!

x

[jeffstunes]

It is a good song. I just got tired of singing it because he used to ask me to sing it all the time. I'm not very good at sticking to one song :)

[jeffstunes]

Thanks Nige. My father used to be involved in the 60's music scene. He was a harmonica and guitar player. His musical tastes spanned several decades :)

[wolfwoman32000]

Thank you for sharing the wonderful photos of your Dad with us, Jeff, Such a beautiful tribute to your Father. So very well put together. Take care, Mary

[jeffstunes]

Thank you Mary. He loved music just as I do. It felt right to put up a few of his faves :)

[Rumpep]

Well Jeff none of us are perfect and anyone who can hold their hand up and say they have

never done anything they should'nt have must be a saint. The photos of Dad with your daughter

show that he had a loving and warm personality

Take care my friend......

Barbara

[jeffstunes]

Thank you Barbara :)

I've been doing a blog for several months, and I'm going to push that. I'm going to start telling some of my father's exploits in it. There are some shocking tales, and a lot of amusing ones too. Some involve celebrities. That's all I'll say at the moment. There's plenty of material :)

He was a bad, bad boy sometimes, but I loved him because he was my father :)

[RAWRAMP1]

a really touching video and song jeff,great..pete

[jeffstunes]

Thanks Pete :)

He used to love this song, so it seemed right as one of the selections :)

[Neumeg]

Well done sir.

[jeffstunes]

Thank you. I felt I wanted to pay tribute in some way, and music seemed the obvious way.

[hellbringa101]

BRILLIANT

brilliant brilliant brilliant

watching this made my day mate

[jeffstunes]

Thank you. I've got a couple more of my dad's favourites to do before I get back to my list :)

[stonebuystone]

This is a wonderful thing you've done here Jeff, thank you for sending

[jeffstunes]

Thank you. I wanted to cover a few songs that my father liked. He liked a real variety :)

[ender198]

Loved it Jeff, Thanks for posting another great song.

[jeffstunes]

[LJABC]

In memory of John Patrick Lanham and with many thanks to my Son, on behalf of his Father. He will be so proud Jeff; that you have chosen to celebrate your love for him through one of the greatest loves of his life. "Music"

[jeffstunes]

It's also one of my greatest loves, as you know. So it seemed natural to do so.

[Rumpep]

This is a beautiful tribute to your Dad, your music is a wonderful way to ease the sense of loss, and thankyou for sharing this very

personal video.

5*....Barbara

[jeffstunes]

Thank you Barbara. He loved to sing and dance throughout his life, and that can't be a bad life eh?

Though he did some very naughty things in his life too :)

[tps607]

Jeff,thanks for sharing this wonderful cover and very personal video. The best!

[jeffstunes]

Thank you. He had a great love for music and liked a wide variety of genres. Just like me really :)

[tps607]

Jeff,you are a talented chip off of the old block! This is a great song!

[tronious]

Jeff,

Really sorry to hear. Put it into your music.

I hope your father rests in peace and everyday he experiences hence forth mimics the best day of his life.

-tronious

[jeffstunes]

Thank you. I've got some great, and amusing memories to fall back on.

[phwoestm]

Jeff.My sincere Sympathy to you and your daughter on the passing of your Dad.Thank you so much for sharing your very beautiful tribute to a man who had obvious love for you both. He certainly gave you a loving,sensitive and Creative heart.Times were differant then but he bears the hero's scars of some one who tried. You three certainly look alike! As a fellow human who has suffered the loss of a parant, I am most empathetic and appreciative that you risked sharing this tribute with me.Phil

[jeffstunes]

Thank you Phil.

I hope you have all the good memories too :)

They can be a source of joy in the future.

[solitudinarian]

Very well done, Mate! :-)

[jeffstunes]

Thank you. It was one of a few of his favourite songs I'm going to do :)

[Ramosk23]

this song is very beautiful:)

this is soo sweet thank-you for sharing with us with great memories:)

[jeffstunes]

Thank you :)

[forever57]

Very tender tribute to your dad.

You resemble much to him.

The pics of your dad together your daughter are particurlarly sweet

Well done

BRAVO Jeff

[jeffstunes]

Thank you. There are many good memories to recall :)

[faffytunes]

As I run a mobile disco

Certain tunes mean a lot to people

And important the ones that stay in memory

That got them dancing enjoying life

Nice version

[jeffstunes]

It certainly got my father dancing :)

Thank you.

[piratesse4]

Amazing; Well done; I am sure that he is very happy with this beautiful tribute; God Bless you and your family Jeff.

[jeffstunes]

If he was still alive, He'd be up dancing now. Lol :)

Thank you.

[cindyjo57]

What a year for you Jeff, how are you holding up? How is your daughter dealing with it all as well. Lovely tribute. Hold those memories close my friend. Bless you and yours.

[jeffstunes]

Thank you. It's all a part of life. we have to deal with all these things that get thrown in our path. Memories are precious, and always alive. If I want to smile about it, I need only recall some memories.

[clooneywoman]

aw am sooo sorry to hear that , he seemed so nice from these pics....

[jeffstunes]

Thank you. He was a real character. He was certainly not a saint, but I did love him, because he was my father. I have some good stories to tell :)

[LJABC]

He was indeed a real character and it was obvious that you loved him very much. He knew it was a fact. As we can see from the photographs, he bathed in your love so much that it radiated in his smile and his obvious pride in you and his open affection for your Daughter were all testament to the love you shared.

[LJABC]

We, none of us, are saints! It should be gift enough, for us to know that our loved ones have been given the choice to live their lives as they wished and of their own volition, carve their destiny in the fashion of their hearts desire, whether it be pleasing to others or not. It was, no less, a life and equal to any in value to that of any man. May he rest in peace and in the memory of us all, remain, the one and only John Patrick Lanham

[Vadderson]

Great song...Great tribute for your dad..Sorry to hear of his passing, but I believe he is in a better place!!! Barnaabus1

[jeffstunes]

Thank you Barnabus. He sure is. I'll be telling some of the events that surrounded his life in my blog. There's some very interesting stories involving some well known people. He was no angel, but I look back on the events as quite amusing.

[stagecurtains]

One of my favourite songs, nice one.5

[jeffstunes]

Thank you. My father had a great love for music, and good taste too.

[LJABC]

Well what can I say? The pictures; are wonderful Jeff. Both You and Veronica gave Him some of the happiest years of his life and it shows! He would have loved this and the happiness, will be etched in your memories forever

It isnt surprising that he didnt want to go, he had so much to live for, but you gave him SOME MEMORIES to take with him.

[LJABC]

I know he loved you both very much and rightly so. He couldnt have been given a finer Son, or Granddaughter and if he were here now, I know he would be raising a glass or two to this fine tribute.

By the way, great song and great vocals!! *****

Mum x

[jeffstunes]

A glass or 5 more like it :)

Thanks Mum :)

[grandplans]

Sorry to hear about your loss Jeff. This tribute was great.

[jeffstunes]

Thank you. He had a pretty good taste in music, and I'll be doing a few more of his favourites.

[bighipz]

The tribute looks like your dad was truly loved, and I am sure your family and his friends are feeling his loss. Hope you cherish the many happy memories! xx

The memories are the most important because they are always alive :)
