hi greenman i have not seen this video for nearly two years. In fact i forgot i recorded it.. it brought back memories for the reason i learnt it in the first place. yes I’m conscious that i have been 'away' for some time. not physically, just inn my own life.. you might not understand what I’m saying. I still work on lots of new songs with little time to remember the old ones like this.. its like passing through songs on a train journey, beautiful scenes fleetingly pass by and are gone..
Another song I have loved for a very long time...you seem to add another layer to each one I hear you sing...they go just just a little deeper. A straight, gentle shot to the heart. Michael's songs - and your performances - are like that.
my lord, kind sir. a long-time fave of mine by Michael. I love your version. It does a wonderful job of highlighting the tragedy of the message in the song. outstanding!
Loved It! Cried about half way through the song. This happened to me six months ago. My first love called me out of the blue. Said he had been trying to find me for a long time... too late. I am happily married, have 2 wonderful children and I like my life. Told him I was flattered, appreciated his efforts in finding me and wished him all the best. Hard to do because I had mixed emotions running through my heart "... because I still feel the flame... the world we once lived in is so far away..."
I hardly ever take the time to comment, but I must. Thank you. 5 stars. Michael Johnson is one of my favorite performers and you do him justice. The songwriters have given us a beautiful song as well. Again, thank you.
wish I could play like this dude!

As usual, an excellent rendition of a great song. 5 stars!!
