This is Peter Cetera's song, from "Chicago VII", 1974. I think it's the most underrated Chicago ballad. Sung in this video by Jason Scheff (Tokyo, 1993).
Great bass playing and excellent vocal! Ladies and gentlemen Jason Freakin' Scheff!!! I was sooo disappointed that he left the band. Such an excellent and humble musician. I never really felt like he was trying to replace Cetera...rather the next bass player/tenor vocalist.
Oh I love Jason on this! I enjoyed Dawayne Bailey's guitar very much too. Love the jazzy feel . Great performance overall! I also saw Lee sing this one last year.. and I love Lee's voice, but I think Jason wins this one.
Heard a cover band sing it and it haunted me for 40 years! Didn't know enough of the words or the band. Put on chicago cd and there it was! Beautiful song.
sweet song. definitely one of Chicago's best ballads, and rarely performed. Saw Lee sing it last year, really cool :). I'd like to see Jason revisit this... his voice is so much better now than it was in '93. thanks for sharing this!
Aww when Scheffy was a baby! ♫ ♪ Wow, first time I've noticed DB playing... very nice. And Tris... a ray of sunshine forever. But killer Jimmy Pankow on "GUIRO" haha... Love him to pieces. :-p Such character.
You are right Jason does do a great job on this and they brought Jason in because of the similar vocal work to replace PC .... its so hard to see any of the original members not there. Kath's loss killed me in 78 but NO band can carry this bands cred. no one. I really did love Hot Street's hits.
I'm a cetera fan.. ok he's the original guy... but what do u want the band to do... stop the music becoz cetera don't want to do it anymore??? jason scheff has his own style...just give a credit to him also...
One of my all-time favorite Chicago tunes. I like that it's the "extended" version. Jason does a great rendition - unbelievable, really! At :48 Walt looks like he can't open the lid to a can.
Me encanta esta canción! Compré hace mas de 30 años este disco doble en vinilo y fué mi segundo disco ahorrando peso por peso. El primero fué So vane de Carly Simon.1975 o 1976.
This is a great version of Happy Man. All you Cetera fans who knock this version are out of it. But you all can take comfort in the knowledge that Peter was no worse than their third best lead vocalist when he was with the band.
So disappointed when Jason left the band (or was unceremoniously fired?). So many people were critical of Jason bc he "wasn't Cetera". Screw those people! Jason is a tremendous bassist and vocalist. He lifted Chicago when they were on the downfall
My father die 15 years a go... this was one of him favorites songs... every time i hear its like him was here with me.
He does an amazing job big shoes to fill. One of my favorite Chicago songs and he nailed it.
Ditto 😀!
yes this young handsome happy man reminds me of my son nick awesome
👍

Jason Scheff I am pleasantly amazed with your beautiful voice.
Scheff does an awesome job. I like the original but this guy's voice is great for this song.
I never get tired of this song - michelle
Oh my goodness he sings this song beautifully 😍 love it
Jason Scheff had some big shoes to fill when Cetera left. And even though he's no Peter Cetera, Jason did a helluva job nonetheless. Hats off to him.
Jason does a great job on this one. Expecially since it was originally written and sung by ultimate crooner Peter Cetera, who's hard to beat.
Maybe because I like Jason more as a person than Peter I loved seeing this. Thank you for posting....
I really LOVE this! Jason Scheff is very talented!
Love Jason❤ God bless all❤
This guy is a genius, timeless!
Jason does an awesome job on this cover.
Pppppppppppppppppppp
This guy does a great job with this very special song !! Excellent voice and carries a Cetera song unbelievable well!! Impressed!!
Surprisingly I’d never heard of this song- but I love it & love Jason. ❤️ Chicago!
If you watch this video, you must understand why Chicago invited Jason.
Oh I love Jason on this! I enjoyed Dawayne Bailey's guitar very much too. Love the jazzy feel . Great performance overall! I also saw Lee sing this one last year.. and I love Lee's voice, but I think Jason wins this one.

It's so hard to believe Jason was with Chicago for 30 years.....or that this was sung by him 254 years ago. Seems like yesterday...
Such a sweet cutie.

One of my favorites songs of all times. I really like it better sung by Peter Cetera but I think Jason Scheff does a great interpretation.
