    It is not often that music takes you down a journey, its even less frequent for a song to touch ones soul in ways that many would not understand. As I sit and listen to this memories dance around my room and a breeze blows through crisp to the touch. I have no connection to this song however you as a musician capture the real essence of so many songs and in doing that create a connection that is truly beyond words, its something that can only be felt. Thank you for sharing you talent with us all! God bless you and your family may your way forever be blessed.

    Just wanted to say, it means a lot that you covered this and did so with respect to the original sentiment it was written with. I only vaguely remembered this song from my childhood and rediscovered it when I had to chase work around Western Canada during a layoff in 2016. Really got me through some rough days.

But there are so many good ones that get overlooked). I agree that this is a more serious/slower version than his, but I don't think there's anything wrong with that, if I wanted identical I'd listen to the original. Really excellent, in my opinion.
