sat with a smile on my face love this song never heard you sing but it was great thank you

[firelione]

Great rendition Mark. Kudos! This has to be the most difficult songs to sing. You did it justice!

[mixlpix]

I always loved that song. It's difficult to do because of the time that the song is in and i love the orchestation. A+ on the vocals and the pianist did an excellent job because there is alot going on in that song and you don't miss really miss it. Great job.

[DejaVusee]

Thanks for the constructive critique. I appreciate it! Yes, it's a little easier to navigate the song even in a lower key, but like Nikray said, it still isn't an easy song to sing in general, especially with the fluctuating time signatures you mentioned. You have no idea how happy I was when I got through it! Completely relieved!

[Nikray]

Love your version of the song...and I think the song is extremely difficult to sing even with your lowing the key from Dionne's version. You should be proud, I have heard many singers struggle with the song, you did great!!

Then it goes to show that Mr. Lee has no fear and in fact does a very creditable job on the song. Remember, no one sounds like Dionne Warwick, he*k, not even Dionne Warwick sounds like herself anymore. Mark plays it smart and sings it to HIS strength, a gentler sound.

Cheers,

Benny.

Great Job ! I 'm sure this must be a Bacharach song.

[Ognjen91095]

Awesome! I think it's Dionne Warwick's song and she's amazing. It was really great...

[gnolt]

Nice version.I hear a little Al Jarreau in his vocal style.

[Dulcesluna]

Very good!

[deeeedefan]

Can't stop enjoying this version..A difficult song and Mark nails it

[chochief]

great job. great ear for pitch

[gayzertube]

This is a brilliant song, and I'm impressed that you chose to sing it, because I never hear anyone else sing it since it was a hit. Really nice voice.

It hampers you to hold onto the mike stand - you can't gesture that way. Experiment w opening your mouth as wide as possible on yr sustained vowels; use the back of your tongue to shape the vowel while keeping the mouth as wide as possible. You're shrugging yr shoulders to emphasize which means tension there. Use yr diaphragm to push more air for the accented notes. Yr breath can then support those wonderful vibrato tones (such nice resonance). Articulation is very gd! Lk at your audience!

[deeeedefan]

Excellent singer,reminding me of a young Johnny Mathis with the same amount of talent..Big career for this guy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[susuemikado]

OK..you are now officially my best friend...we both love Dionne and Deniece...excellent job Mark!

[Nikray]

Love it, this really is one of most difficult songs to sing ever....few could tackle this Dionne classic, you did a great, great job!!

[cutny]

oh my...what a nice surprise. Great song and voice that is a pleasure to listen to each time I hear it.

[laylacalif]
