The crazy bastard made me cry again - I don't think I could listen to anyone else's version of that song now. What a talent!

@brit1958dec I know exactly what you mean. He does it to me too every time I listen to this track. Genius isn't good enough to describe the man or his music.

Thank's for the Music Big Yin!

God, we miss you, john, you bastard!

Fabulous. Again. Bye John, we'll miss you more than you can imagine. I hope you're over the rainbow now.

Stunning. As simple as.

'Every little bird flies over the rainbow- tell me why can;' I?' Heard it a thousand times, but when John sings it, it suddenly has a poignancy and tragic sadness that in never had before!
How does he do it?

What was it about the man that made us all, who had seen him performing live, diminished when he died?

I must agree. In fact I think that the whole "Foundations" concert is his best live performance (that I've seen, anyway).
