My dad emailed me this song after my first heartbreak (he communicates through music because he's too "manly" to use words haha) He claimed Rod's version was the most soulful and I have to agree there. Beautiful..
@heliot58 My best guess would be Joe Walsh. He did play on this album & parts of the solo are so reminiscent of his style. Steve Cropper also played on this album, and it could be him, they both liked using ascending/descending 6ths. But like I stated,my best guess would be the crazy guy from the James Gang...
@jamminjeff856 I would never have guessed it was Joe Walsh! I would have thought Rod would go with English players but i listened to it again and I do hear a little of his signiture style/sound righty at the end of the solo. I am not a musician, just a guy who loves music. Thank you for for info!
Best version. When I hear this, I am aged 17 again, lying flat on my back at a friends party....staring at the ceiling, pissed out of my head on cheap beer and the room spinning...madly in love with my ex who is snogging someone else...bay city roller trousers and Jackie magazine....best days of my life
THEY'LL NEVER BE ANOTHER ROD......GREAT SINGER, GREAT SONG WRITER. GREAT MEMORIES WHEN I LISTEN TO ROD;S SONGS, ALTHOUGH VAN MORRISON IS MY ALL TIME FAVORITE!!!!!! GO CELTICS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
it takes a special kind of douchebag to take a classic, fuck it up, and still think its one of the best things he's ever done. raspy voiced faggot cant sing for shit. if you want the REAL song, properly done, go to cat stevens.
@fatalnightmare22 Really?! you are gonna sit there and diss a man that made more money with his "raspy" voice than you could ever dream of making. and furthermore, you willingly clicked the play button to listen to this version, nobody held a gun to your head, think about it dumb shit.
@fatalnightmare22 although i don't agree with ur opinion on this version, my mom played rod stewart all the time so i kind of grew up to it, i am apologizing for my previous statement. I was in a terribly,shitty,aggressive mood at that time and needed to vent u just happened to be the victim. I'm sorry. you didnt deserve that, you were just giving ur opinion.
@jessmason81 i never listened to this song before until a few weeks ago, but the cat stevens version is more suited to my ears. guess i went a bit overboard too so hard feelings...
its funny i never regarded myself a rod stewart fan.. but my dad was his biggest fan 12 years after leaving home i find myself sat here listening to all rod songs strange
best version, cherly crow ruined it.

Rod sings it beautifully. He really does a much better job than the original author i.e., Cat Steven. One of my all time favourite songs.
