By far the best performance of this song I have ever seen.

This is a song for everyone and this singer is so powerful I choked up a little.

The Hearn version is better acting, especially in the slow portion. But this has a more overt power. I get the chills from this one.

This is second best to hearing it live in Chicago. It pretty much makes my life.

@ducky811 i sung it..if i could do it..anybody can..but i used a different technique , but i performed it live !

[ducky811]

I am DYING to play this part!!! I cannot sing for SH*T though. I would have to use a vocal track and lip sync it.

@GraceUnderPressure1 Amen. I'm a straight woman and I couldn't agree more.

Sadly my family did not agree with this and sent me to Coventry! (English for we don't want to know him!) Great song no matter who sings it! Life's not worth a damn!
