    For the last few hours I've been picking my way through your videos. I heard you first earlier today and can't stop listening! You seem to sing every one of my favorites, including this one! Your song choices are perfection and your performances are spot on! You are the real deal! You are the Songman!

    This song is a classic, so for anyone to take a classic and make it sound like this is a genius!
    What a fantastic version.
    I salute you sir.

    Sad songs are allways my prefered melodies. This ralph mc Tell song wakes up in me so beautiful memories from summers at the end of 70th years in France. Great sound, emotive voice and picking is so fluid.A fabulous moment to ear you, I go new step, to ear your interpretation of James Taylor songs, one of my favorite singer on the other face of the Atlantic (i'm french, sorry for my poor english). Thank's to my friend Lydia who move me towards these beautiful guitar cover

    This song is really in your soul! Cheerful tune with sad lyrics. When I lived in England I heard Tom Paxton for the first time on record....you remind me of him, though it´s not a Tom Paxton song originally...just a blend of my own memories; your voice and the tune....

    I recently did this same song IN MY BATHROOM (lol - the video of it is on my humble channel). I’ve been playing and singing it since I was about 16 (I’m an old boy of 63 now), but goddamn it young Mike, as I don’t have a fraction of your talent my effort isn’t a bloomin’ patch on this one of yours!! So very well done matey. This was a great rendition of a beautiful old classic song and I loved it. Thanks for letting me listen.
