    I respect John so much for not using auto tune. His voice has aged gracefully and has remained natural. The fact that he can sing like this is impressive. Using auto tune is not impressive at all.

      I like the fact that his voice is a little more rough. I think it sounds terrific!!!

      He doesn't sound like in the 80s anymore, this version is a little more low-key, but this is obviously an age thing. Other than that he is never off-key, he hits every note, and I think this is a great performance. Not saying this as his fanboy, I actually know just this song and maybe two more.

    This is a guy giving it all. He gave his voice, literally to this song for 40 years and it's taken it's toll. Yet he continues to gift fans this song. I appreciated and enjoyed it.

      It's always great to see the original artist doing his/her songs regardless of age. Gorden Lightfoot is 82 and touring. Saw him when he was 78 and though he changes up the arrangement a little to make it easier on him it is awesome to see him performing... Sammy Hager is 73 and he doesn't disappoint and sounds better then most younger artists....

    A timeless song by the legend himself. Anyone hating on him needs to sit down and humble themselves. Did your rock career span 4 decades? No? That's what I thought.

    This song was released in 1985, so John Parr has been singing this song since then.
    I think his performance was just as good now, as it was, then.
    I sing this in karaoke, so I'm waiting for bars to open again, after the Covid-19 restriction to be lifted...

      ​@@lorenmorgan1931 Yeah, unfortunately, his voice just seems exhausted (probably from having sung this song so many times!), BUT...I do give him props for at least not using auto-tune or lip syncing to a vocal track like so many "legacy" rock stars do today...not sure about his guitar or the other instruments backing him here, but Parr's vocals at least do seem to be live.
