I have heard Andy Kim's songs all my life and I just realize how much he and Neil Diamond songs and style are similar.

@alwaysengines I was thinking the same thing! I always thought this song was by Neil Diamond.

@alwaysengines Hi I heard this on the radio today and had to check if it was at least written by Neil Diamond if not sung by him and no it wasn't. He looks a little like him as well, well I can see it.

Wow this song could make the sun come out in a blizzard at midnight.

@alwaysengines - you're right - he even looks like him

@alwaysengines

Yeah right on, I reckon Neil Diamond would be a great Andy Kim tribute act.

Who is the one deuchebag?

@alwaysengines: You make a good point about Kim and Neil Diamond having similar sounds. I am familiar with this song as I would sing it as a child growing up, but I had never thought about the similarities.
