question: where does thomas hampson get off singing this son? answer: same place stephen foster got off writing it. beautiful, but not a bit genuine from conception onward.

Thank you. This song came to mind today and I came to YouTube to hunt it down.
I believe I have listened to over two dozen versions here, and they have ranged from bad to horrible. In virtually every case, the singer thinks him or herself more important than the music. That has included people who should know better like Nanci Griffith and James Taylor and the McGarrigle Sisters. This is the first version I have heard sung clear and clean and sad and sweet. It is beautiful. Many Thanks.

Sung magnificently with deep feeling and expression. The choir blends beautifully with his voice in the chorus after each verse. A sterling and classic performance. I prefer this version to the version in "Song of America" by a small margin. Both versions are excellent.
