Agreed everyone, fabulous version. Just love Bonnie Raitt. BUT have you heard Neil Diamond's version on his new album? Shock! It's brilliant! Very understated, and with nice guitar, and harmonies by Timothy B. Schmidt.
Thanks all around starting with Mr Newman and Ms Raitt, Ms O'Donnell, bdtb and the copyright gods who let this stay on the web. This performance surely helps our planet ring like a bell
Bonnie has a sincerity that's hard to exceed. Linda's voice is pure and beautiful, but in my opinion, this song works best with the grit of real experience coming through.
@Evian622 agreed. and randy's own version on H&A is amazing for the same reason. such incredible emotion, because of (not despite) randy's unusual singing voice.
This is a Lovely Song that I am now singing in My Husband and I gigs as we are Huntersmoon Harmony Duo,Search for us on here ( You Tube ) a Beautiful song.
I used to listen to this song and long to feel like I had come home, and it hurt so badly...now I've met someone and I play this song because I now know how it feels to come home - every word of this resonates with me and it fills me with joy instead of sadness. It's a truly wonderful song, performed by 2 amazing people. And I'm just sickeningly loved up!!
Watching Bonnie Raitt sing this just blows me away. I have always been a huge Bonnie Raitt fan, but this brings it to another level. I have to sing this song at my best friends wedding in a couple of months and I still have yet to get thru it without crying...it is so touching. The Chantal version is a joke in comparison. Its like she totally doesnt understand what she is singing about....this version is is all there EVER needs to be.
Bonnie singing and Randy playing, everytime the definitive version! The Chantal version is okay, but there's lots of breathy over-emotion, this is the real deal! I can't see Chantal with just a mic and Randy behind her - Bonnie Raitt has a gorgeous voice and it works with nothing added.
@watchingtelly EXACTLY, this is a more heart felt version, more touching and deep. The chantal version is this country twangy sounding, synthesizer, etc.
WOW! What a great song! I like the L. Rostadt version also, but with Randy By God Newman his bad self on the 88's who can possibly find fault with this?!?! Good work bdbt on the upload, thanks You Tube for the ever accomodating space, and as 4 Bonnie And Randy, damofino you two are just FINE! ROS!!!
This was my wedding song! My husband heard it when he was studying the musical "Faust" in school; I was the first thing he thought of when he heard it in class.
Thank you for posting this. I've been hoping someone would post Bonnie's version on here. Fantastic that you found the one with the song's composer in it. Randy Newman's best song ever, IMO.
@browncoats4ever You must remember just how long Randy has been writing really great songs! "Feels......." is a great tune, plus he shows his vulnerable side throughout it, but IMO "Sail Away" is the absolute best thing that Randy Newman will write in this or any other lifetime! It my friend is more magic than music! Long live Randy, Bonnie, and You Tube!
