[XassyBill16]

[edmame]

[TheNiro121]

[lenaannemarie]

He has a great soul voice

[MrArtfreako]

[MsBlueDance]

This man makes me feel everything from softness, to healing, to hardness, to just....I don't know what to say....he pulls my soul beyond my physical body and makes me wanna do a big stretchy yawn!!

[Jennimu]

oh man ich schmelze...!!!

[SukiSinghEdmonton]

My Favorite Version Of 'Wonderful World'.

[carolynkayeat]

I first commented on this rendition almost a year ago, and everything I said then still holds true...and MrMarilyn is right, he really does bring tears to my eyes as I listen to him sing...This is so touching...Noone can touch Sam, but Sananda is EXCELLENT also...Love it!

[cathychokr]

My most favorite 'Wonderful World' version !

[AndyWhitmore]

Andy Whitmore

[tributevocalist]

this guy's got one of the most soulful voices I have ever heard coming out of the 80s!!  his expression and vocal ability are so raw!!!

[yankeedoodlecajun]

I'm with you, man, when this song came out I was DJ'ing at a Tampa nightclub and working at a record store during the day -- everyone at the store -- and I mean EVERYONE, regardless of their musical bent -- sang along and listend to TTD. He transcended genre, race, age, sex, etc... he was awesome. Can't figure out why he disappeared. It's just sad.

[SanandaLover]

He didn't disappear at all :)

out maitreyasananda after youtube and you find so much more of him, he JUST released his latest album NIGOR MORTIS!

[chantrynutjob]

Saw this when first aired on The Tube. Amazing, Come back and stay man!

[angelinodarpi]

why? he is a pur talent straight from his hart a concert for 20000 people or 100 he always gives the best thats i call a superstar and forget michael and etc..peace

[ohronaldo34]

why this man isnt a superstar is a beyond me, his voice is better than micheal jacksons and look how much he sold?!?!

[samsonmorrell]

why compare him to michael??? michael is unique and no one will come close to what he has done. it is an injustice that ttd wasn't more popular mainstream vocally one of the greatest artist that ever lived

[SukiSinghEdmonton]

OMG !!

I saw this 21 years ago when it was broadcast on TV. I recorded it on VHS in England.

I moved to 17 years ago to Canada left those VHS in UK.

SO GLAD I SAW THIS AGAIN TANKS MUCH.

[tsjaaaa]

:O i thought it was gone!

THNX

[MossyLayd]

i seem to have stumbled upon a gem here :D

made my night :D

[TheMrMarilyn]

I went to see TTD when he supported Simply Red at Shepherds Bush an left to go upstairs an hang out with him as SOON as he finished doin his set (i LEFT just as Simply Red came ON,HA!!) he sang this then an i was sittin in the front row an tears started streamin down my face during his rendition of this,an i couldn't have cared LESS!!Believe me...it takes one HELL of a fukkin performer to elicit tears from THESE eyes,an he DID...an i LOVE him for it too!!Masterful...A+

[RaH011]

wow this guyz songz have neva let me down wonderfull artest

[dusroots]

their voices are so similar and I never noticed

[staksCo]

..shame the bit at the start was just missed.. saw TTD on the Tube years earlier perform an even grittier version 'live'. That'll b worth postin too ... Goood Stuff.

[rickylester]

Thanks for uploading this song it is one of my favourites excellent singer respect.

[rickylester]

Thanks for putting this song back on i absolutely love this version excellent.

[carolynkayeat]

I think that Sam Cooke was the greatest singer who ever lived, so for me to say what I'm about to say, really says it all...Sananda's arrangement of Wonderful World is Beautiful...Magnificent...and Simply Brilliant...As a true Sam Cooke fan, I absolutely loved it..
