"IF" (original Bread song)John Hunter Phillips live karaoke Honolulu, Hawaii April 2008

Easy-going night out in Hawaii. JHP sings "IF". It was a surprise to find that the karaoke track they played was in a lower key than that of the original vesion by David Gates and Bread

I'd love to hear this guy sing "If" in a public free venue. The crowed really killed it. He has a nice voice and did this song proud.

Thank you very much for your kind words. David Gates is a great writer. John

Nice cover, John! I really like your voice. :)

[BeachBoysGuy1]

Why thank you very much. I had not expected to do it, but threw caution to the wind. A friend videotaped it and so the actually starts on the second verse. It's also in a lower key than the original Davod Gates song which I had been used to, so it was a quick adaption.

Love your voice as well. I'm sure you hear this all the time, but you reallyu do have a Karen Carpenter sound when you want to, John

One of my fav songs. And, wow, yes this def is a lower key. I have John's CDs great stuff.
