  • At first I thought, "Gene Wilder!" (haha! Just joking.) I dig your rendition mate! And from memory at that... bet you have fun around the campfire telling this. :)

  • why are you bothering to video yourself acting in such a stupidly realistic way?

  • na i like jhonny cash's one were he recites the poem

  • your awesome. geez.. effortless yet bravo!! you can see it in his eyes.. in his eyes. his eyes is enough to express those words.. without action or anything. your amazing.

  • best version I have seen

  • Great job! I never realized it, that's a great poem to do for kids around a campfire.

  • Not bad, BUT I much prefer the John McDonagh version.

  • Very well done, from inside the poem. You took me where the words really go.

  • Great-- so often poetry is divided as if the end of the line was a comma or period. At last Sam is recited according to the punctuation--and the players sense of rightness/interpretation. BRAVO !

  • the eyes and gestures of a true raconteur render the greatest Canadian ballad in fitting style.
