  • @Ptrgamb This is a very respectable cover.  You must not have reviewed all of the covers if you find this to be the worst.

  • Great song, great pics.

  • mr banci i am still around i wish you were here with me i hope the girl in ontario was good to you.

  • This song is such a classic; has anyone ever heard a song that reminded them of Wichita LIneman? Still, no one has ever come close to the original Glen Campbell version. And whether you like OC's version of this particular song or not, he is definitely one of the truly great singers.

  • Groovy..Mr Smith certainly holds a note!

  • Two Words... Love It!

  • Dennis Brown's version a de boss still!!!

  • Agreed and I Luv "OC". the tempo is too fast,they get too far away from the melody,and the harmonic progressions,of this song that make it magical they kill that.the only chance for anybody takeing on this song other than Glen Campbell,is to do what they do inside the melody,and the harmonic progressions,if not they fuck the song up.

  • What an idiot. Like there is a "correct" way to do any song. I suppose Elvis Presely's "big sound" songs, Suspicious Minds etc. are also "ruined" by overproduction and should really have been done like country & western. No? Why not? Because you are used to hearing them that way? Duh.

  • This is absolutely horrible. I've been going through the various versions of this song on here and this may be the worst. I know OC was terrific, but as someone else mentioned, this is preposterously overproduced. It buries all of the feeling of the song.
