SORRY! Not a good version...original guys should not mess with thier good stuff...leave it in our memory as the great studio recording it was....leave this re arrangement stuff for newer guys...
This song would be so much better if they took it a bit slower (like on the Icon Acoustic TV Broadcast recording). As it is, John's rushed through those high notes and hitting a few rotten eggs... love his voice and Geoff's piano, but this one isn't doing it for me...
I do like this song, and I've been a big fan of Asia and the other spinoffs involving the band's members for a long while now. I just have to say, though, that this doesn't do the song justice. It's not meant to be a piano+vocal song, it just doesn't work!
I saw them at Trump Marina, was issued a photo pass, and got some great photos. Wonderful show! John Wetton is sporting a tan and some biceps. Looks a lot better and his voice his better than I have ever heard it.
I figured that out about 5 minutes after posting that question. I cut and pasted the birthday party info into Google and found it on there. Thank you for the great postings and the reply.
Didn't help that Wetton is clearly wasted.

Crossed arms throughout - its not doing it for him, or us. Love John's work generally, especially solo stuff.

Its not so bad. Just a nice intimate setting for them, doing an old favorite. I enjoyed it, thanks.
