What a magnificent voice! So sad.so young, and too soon she left us.Rest well Whitney.

She was only 13 when she recorded this. I love the segue into the key change. This recording is terrific! Leann is a great singer.

Makes me want to roll my piano down the hill into the creek! I don't think I play like this even in my dreams! Wow! What musicality!

What can I say.......AWESOME!

The smooth voice of Jimmy Wakely. Wonderful!

Margret Whiting co-wrote this beautiful song . She has a beautiful recording of it, but I can't find it here. Also this song is a favorite of Barbershop singers. Marty does a nice job of it.

Love how he pulled up his Cuban heritage and used it on this. Makes me want to 'sway". This is feel good stuff! He's amazing. the man can sing anything! What a talent!

The lyrics in this song...my favorite Kris song hits right in the heart. "The lovin was easy...it's the livin that's hard."

Hey! A good song is a good song, Music is meant to be personalized not copied over and over like a rubber stamp.. An artist should make it theirs when they perform it. I love Eric Clapton's way too, but I also like the treatment Michael gives it. He does it his way. I'll bet Clapton likes it too....

My favorite song by Darryl. Swingy, bluesy, bouncy. Lyrics are clever. Simple...less is more wins again.

@ericblr No eric..I've been aware of these self-important ivory tower dwellers for a long time. Since I am getting "longer in the tooth" every year, I see just how intolerant the self proclaimed "tolerant and freedom loving far-left" is. The only" freedoms" they approve of are the ones they deem...

This grabs me by the heart strings! Wonderful...Has anyone else noticed just a "hint" of the similar sound of Gordon Lightfoot in the lead singer's voice?

Hey...he kept time. Not bad for a non-professional conductor !He even managed to cue some of the accents...:-)

What some don't realize is.. Mary was playing rhythm on most of their recordings. I read a great biographical book on Les, Amazing talent...in many areas. I loved Les and Mary's music when i was a kid and still do more than 50 years later...it still sounds fresh and wonderful!

Lighten up all you people that p and m about a new version of an old song! Music is meant to be played, sung and interpreted in individual ways. Bless her for making this song hers in her way and breathing new life into it! How boring would it be if everyone did music the same way! I'll bet John ...
