  • You sounds great! I love it!

  • @aznprincess140 Thank you very much :)

  • Talent,BRAVO!

  • @trespatines99 thanks very much for your support!

  • Have someone else play for you, so you are able to stand and sing the song. Would be more powerful.

  • @ahuisenga1 Whatever....this was how I did it. Me on guitar, me singing. thanks for watching.

  • awesome i like it ...plz could you tell me the chords 

  • @verynicekhan If you omit the first chord, it's basically Em , B7 (or Bm...might sound better) ... G, B7, Em, D, C, Em and the chorus is ... D, C, D, C, B7, Am (or C), B7, Em. Hope that helps.

  • @zerobio thanks

  • Comment removed

  • So much feeling put into a song, it was great, I didnt know you had done this one till you told me so I had to take a listen. Great voice Elliott, I only wish I could get that high. You know me give me the bass notes and were good. Lon

  • @MRKEYS58 Oh I thought you knew, that's why I found it so interesting we had both done it. Anyhow, I always love to hear from you and really appreciate your kind comment. Yes, you can definitely take the bass notes...that's something I can't do so I leave it to you, Lon. Take care buddy and look forward to new songs from you.

  • Absolutely brilliant! You gave me goose bumps.  You have so much passion when you sing. Thank you for sharing your gift with us.

    Elaine Allen

  • @VElaineA I'm so glad you came to see this song! TJ was my fav singer growing up and of course he is an amazing singer and I could only attempt to try this song. But I gave it all I could and want to thank you for picking up on that and giving me some support. Thanks so much and hope to hear from you again.

  • First time I see someone on youtube, actually tries to sing the heart off! Well done! Cover version was brilliant, and the singing was also good. Keep going!

  • @anri22 Thank you very much. I'm happy to hear from you and hope you'll come back again some time.

  • wow! great cover, you rocked me

  • @HNplaying Hey thanks a lot! I'm really glad you watched this one. Take care and drop by again buddy.

  • this is great! can you tell me what chord ur strumming before the E and bm?

  • @iancloke I don't have any guitar here right now, all being shipped from Indonesia to Canada but far as I can remember, it was an Em with a finger on the F# note, 3rd string, 4th fret. (ie. Em/F#).

  • @cbucknall1 Awesome, thanks for joining in.

  • Wow! You never can tell when you click on a link to a cover whether it's the musical equivelent of that fat kid body popping or some undiscovered gem - this is 24 carat gold.

  • thanks zerobio. that was nice of you. I found some other chords that also sound ok,

    Am/G/C/E/F

  • @Tinto4 No problem. And yep, those chords would certainly work and might be better depending on the key you want to sing it in. Ok then, good luck and let me know if you ever record and post a version of this great song.

  • I always beleived an acoustic guitar version of this song could work, and you've absolutely surpassed what I imagined. If you could share the chords, I would be very thankful.

  • @Tinto4 Hey thanks a lot! It was tough for sure but worth a try. So the chords are basically...

    VERSE

    Em, Bm (repeat)

    G, B7, Em, D, C ... Em

    CHORUS

    D, C (repeat)

    D, C, B7, Am, B7

    Watch me do it and I pretty much use that. My D chord is a bit funny, I like the one I do but you can just sub a regular D in there. Hope this helps and thanks for the support.

  • wow that was kick ass, nice to see this song being changed up , big props

  • @ajvega Hey friend, I'm very happy that you watched this and gave me some great feedback. Awesome to hear from you! thanks very much.

  • Man... why has someone not spotted you and given you a contract? I think a lot of people would love hearing you.. Hopefully YouTube will produce some things for you. Have you thought about something like X Factor (the new Simon Cowell show - sort of American Idol for grown ups) . You would do really well...

  • Buddy, I really appreciate what you've said here. Would love to get "spotted" but I'm a bit too old for those shows. Thanks a lot though and you really encouraged me to keep posting.

  • wunderfull cover u rocked

  • Hey thanks a lot!

  • GREAT MAN!!! look my version for this song sorry for my english i from argentina

  • you rock

    thank you for this

    LOVE

  • Your version is as powerful as TJ's...loved it!!

  • That's a great compliment, not sure I deserve it, but I really appreciate that. :)

  • You are really good, i like you personal style, regards from Spain.

  • Thanks so much! I'm really glad you liked it. Hello Spain!

  • I can't believe you had the guts to attempt this and pull it off!!! That was fantastic, no professional performer has had the guts to attempt a cover of this. You were great!

    By chance do you have the chords/tabs? Really great.

  • Just stumbled on this looking for a Ben E King version of the song. Wow I am greatly impressed and will check out some of your other videos. IF you were performing anywhere near me, I would come see your show. Unfortunately, I live in Bangkok Thailand now and suspect your dont get to that area very often. Bravo, I enjoyed it very much!!

  • I am so happy that you stumbled upon my channel and this version of such a great song. Hope you enjoy some of my other work. Thank you for stopping by and commenting.

  • OMG! I have always loved the passion in this song. Your version brought tears to my eyes! Thanks for letting it rip!

  • Oh I'm so glad you liked my version. It is indeed an amazing song and I'm just happy that I could give it a try and do some justice to it.

  • This is one of Tom's most powerful songs! it's not very easy to sing the way Tom does it with his high notes, including the end of it. Nice job bud!

  • I agree with you and thanks very much for watching and commenting.

  • What a Goldy Oldy ..

    Shirley Bassey Version is Great too ..

    Keep it Up, Nice Work

  • Actually, I haven't heard her version. I should look that up. Thanks for listening to my version.

  • wonderful job Elliott you made this your own...just awesome...Enjoy

  • Hi Linda. This is close to my favourite song so this comment means a lot to me. Thanks.

  • wow! that was excellent. great performance, especially on those high notes. perfect *******************

    thanx again del for sharing

    love kelly

  • This was the hardest one, Kelly, and for you to say this is very important and encouraging to me. Thank you!

    ~ Elliott

  • OMG!! how did you do that??, awesome high notes, and you nail them perfectly! great performance!

  • Well, i tried so hard to climb the hill and catch the fireworks ... they were very high up in the sky but i got them and will keep them always.

    Thank you!

  • nice job on this great song

  • Thank you captain of the subway singers!  You are a true survivor. Glad to be your friend and to find you on my little "street corner" ... haha, we have to share it so come back in half an hour when I'm done my set. Remember those days?

    ~ Elliott

  • Still hoping you'll tell me the rest of the story to your "Fantasy" song ... waiting ... :)

  • It didnt seem like you were pushing too hard. Seemed more like you were totally involved and a prisoner to the song and the mood.

    This is all good I might ADD

    I will talk to Weewin and get here to critique something of yours.

  • Thank you very much! I was really hoping you would say this. And I would be very happy for Weewin to critique me (I hope she will be gentle).

  • Dont think I can do this one. Dont think I can go there.

    Cheers matie 10

  • Doug, I just watched your wonderful christmas song on youtrax tv ... you don't need to go here because you have it down so perfect right where you are, in that song. Loved the pics of your family and the sentiment.

    Thank you, sir. :)

  • you sung it very well 5 * get back to me on the electric guitar :)

  • Thanks ShoBizKid! I will definitely do the electric thing. Please remind me if you haven't seen anything like that in the next couple of weeks from me. I have so many projects on the go (not to mention a full time job) and my mind gets a bit overloaded.

    ~ Elliott

  • Bravo! Well done on such a demanding number! Thanks, Del for sharing :)

  • Hello and thank you for commenting on this. Yes, a demanding number indeed but definitely a song that pulled on my heart.

    Thanks Del, awsome share! xo

  • This is the ultimate compliment and very proud to have you supporting me and other Canadian musicians. Thanks so much for your wishes to me and Dini. :)

  • Haha, Del I don't know if it was confidence or courage to try. ;) Yes it was tough but well worth trying to reach for the stars ... I mean, the high notes.
