    Heard this on Sasquatch Chronicles and it blew me away. I fell asleep during the episode and your song at the end woke me up because it was so good - what a voice! I've spent the last couple of weeks trying to find out who did this cover and was thrilled to find your channel. Thanks so much for such a great version of this song!

    You have the most amazing tenor voice and control. Your timing and punctuation are on point. You have definitely got the sound mix right. Love the black and white video and the shooting of the video makes it a very personal experience. Bryce brings the bass as always. Very beautifully sounding and visual experience, as always. Thank you for another great performance

    Fantastic Job Mike! Chicago was my very 1st rock concert back in 1987 my father bought tickets and took me to see the show. I had their greatest hits package as a teenager, and made my parents fans. the following year my parents took me to see Toto during their Seventh One Tour. some good times back then.

    This is the cover of this song I’ve been waiting for Mike. Just fantastic. I still can’t believe that you can sing the higher parts normally sung in a falsetto, in your full chest belt voice. What an incredible range you have. And also, you’re one of the few youtubers I enjoy watching do covers, because it looks like you’re enjoying watch you’re doing and you have performance skills. Brilliant and thanks for posting Mike, keep up the good work.
