I prefer this version much more, I think he really captures the melancholy of the words incredibly, his voice is almost chilling, brrrr....very talented singer.
I have fallen in love with this man's music. It has been so long since we have had GREAT music... Thank you Mr. J Woon for reminding us how great gifts can really be!!!
I remember this song from when I was really young I bought it on my iPod n only when he covers it Randomly thought of it n took me 1 hr to find ,worth it tho ( god bless Jamie cus he’s one a kind in my heart ❤)
"The Wayfaring Stranger" (aka "Poor Wayfaring Stranger" or "I Am a Poor Wayfaring Stranger"), Roud 3339, is a well-known American spiritual/folk song likely originating in the early 19th century[1] about a plaintive soul on the journey through life. As with most folk songs, many variations of the lyrics exist
Jamie's lyrics and soulful voice develop such a meaning to his songs that cannot be easily emulated by even the best of performers. There is such a sincerity in the relationship between artist and music that one cannot help but admire.!!!!!! Absolute joy to listen and watch you JAMIE! my new favorite artist and music genre has been discovered.
Back here watching in 2020. Just watched 1917 and recognised this amazing track and remembered this version as it’s still the original version to me. Still highly rate Jaime Woon as a real looping inspiration and pioneer in music 🌎✌️
Oops. This guy's new to me. But...I just finished Ed Sheeran's video (big fan of Sheeran) and I gotta say.... As a fan of the song for a long, long time...Woon reaches my soul. Definitely a new Woon fan.
My favourite thing about Jamie is he easily has the voice to turn commercial but turns his head to the more experimental acapella side of things. much more original, much more interesting to listen to. keep the records coming mate
it became one of Burl Ives's signature songs, included on his 1944 album The Wayfaring Stranger. Ives used it as the title of his early 1940s CBS radio show and his 1948 autobiography. He became known as "The Wayfaring Stranger". I'd say that predates Johnny Cash, Jamie Woon AND Ed sheeran. ;)
Personally I love this version the most. One thing we can all agree on is that Jamie's high notes are WAY more raw, effortless and more suited. Great spiritual kind of vibe in this tune.
timberlake, michael jackson, jamiroquai, jason mraz, paulo nutini... You can hear all those great singers in his voice. Pehpas he aint got a Unique voice but it's a truly amazing combination, awesome to listen to
jamie arranged the song awesomely and ed sheeran sang it beautifully. and because of that more people know about jamie. so in my opinion they helped each other.
Ed Sheeran and Jamie Woon both do amazing covers, they are different - Ed's is more modern and well, this is just beautiful. Love them both, such talent :')
oh you beauty, i thought this was ed sheerans until recently, jamie and ed are by far the best artists in a long time, they both are pure talent, doing it all themselves, with amazing results. god i can't express how much i love them both
This is still such an absolute gem of a song, holy. What a beautiful cover
Still,imo, the best version of this song ever.....
I prefer this version much more, I think he really captures the melancholy of the words incredibly, his voice is almost chilling, brrrr....very talented singer.
FINALLY!!! Found this gem again. Beautiful
I take that back. True talent should not be judged by 4 Knobs and lost forever!!!
His voice is amazing. if you guys haven't, you absolutely NEED to see the Burial mix of this song. It is unbelievable.
I realize it is kinda off topic but do anyone know of a good place to watch new tv shows online?
@Chaim Vance I watch on Flixportal. You can find it on google :)
@Jacob Christopher yup, I have been watching on Flixportal for months myself :)
@Jacob Christopher thanks, I signed up and it seems like they got a lot of movies there :) I appreciate it !
@Chaim Vance glad I could help =)
wow forgot about this... 2019...12 years!!

Geezzzzz....... I'm speachless, laying on the ground in a puddle......
Hot dang! That was GOOD!
Thank you, Jamie Woon
Blessings!
This really touches deep
For Jamie Woon is his music more important than his appearance, that's what makes him a real MUSICartist
