Somebody really screwed up the mic' ing on that piano... Which is sad because it's a really beautiful old piano with a beautiful sound.

Regina performed beautifully, as usual, though. :)

I own this keyboard. The deep sounding bass in the lower keys is really great and nearly all of the voices are great. I wouldn't recommend taking this along for performances because it's easily scratched, but it would be great in a studio setting.

Sometimes, when I'm feeling kind of depressed, I play this song..... and the funny thing is, I'm not sure who I'm playing it for. I think the melody just helps my mood.

This song is so simple, yet so very deep and meaningful.

It's not very often that you get a songwriter who could describe an emotion like John could.
