This is so beautiful even though he missed his cue because Nigel Lithgoe decided at the last minute to make the song longer and add a verse without allowing Clay to practice it. Bravo, Clay. Even when you mess up you're the best!!!

[lildfizzle08]

he misses lik 3 lines.when he stares down at the ground and then bursts into song you can tell.but it was still a beautiful rendition

@mlolacal your right

[TEDISKEWL]

@mlolacal i agree

I know they only have 90 seconds but he should have done better!

I think Clay was brave to attempt a version of one of the most perfect songs ever written. Don McLean is an amazing talent. I give Clay credit for putting his own interpretation into this song. It's not in the same caliber as the original, but a respectable cover which shows respect for a truly great artist.

he made a beautiful song sounds GAY

[DavePazz]

Not a good version, sounds like he's trying to use an R&B or soul style that doesn't work for this song. No real sense of interpretation either.

[mlolacal]

OMG, this is horrible. Classics like this song should not be sang other then the original artist.

@incrobe Seriously? Who doesn't know who Vincent Van Gogh is? And yes, I'm including more than just knowing Starry Night

[incrobe]

I doubt any of the audience even knew who Vincent Van Gogh was. I dislike this cover quite a bit
