    How sad are the 112 people who gave this a thumbs down. Is there anyone on earth who can competently play anything close to this? This is just jaw dropping guitar mastery.

    Raul midon has the most beautiful soul that a man could own. his inspiration and favorite artist is Stevie Wonder. He has a truly unique Style, nothing is more original than him in my opinion. He brings tears to my eyes both happy and sad. I truly love this man with all of my heart as a musician because I can truly relate with each and every song. that is my opinion. mister midon, if you're reading this keep doing what you're doing because you truly inspire me

    As an old 77yo musician, songwriter, I admire this man. Tones of Al Jarreau, Bill Withers in his voice. His guitar work, his timing, his rhythm and his internal horn section. For one guy to make so much music, is exceptional. Rare to find a multi-channel brain that can mimic flutes, horns and who knows what else. I read he is from NM, near Chimayo. This man is blessed in more ways than one.

    I saw this guy in the documentary, "Still Bill," the story about the life of Bill Withers. He impressed me so that many years back I made it a point to travel a jazz festival in Jacksoville Florida just to see him out of many other famous performers because I was so taken by his talents. I have been following him ever since. Thanks for the beautiful words and music Raul!

Indescribable But, There was something in this Man's musical spirit coming through. Transcending the AM radio and actually reaching out. With a few snippets of his current album / songs, his personal life, love within his family surely, Given his daughter is his agent. I didn't know it quite yet. The reality Mr. Midon was going to amaze me with his first song listened. Sunshine when I'm with you I can fly.......RUclips, Please consider deactivating the Unlike button from any of Mr. Midons videos based on general principle. Some things are sacred.

    Sunshine when you?re with me I can fly
    Sunshine when you?re with me I can fly
    Every day I wonder why
    Peace on earth?s so hard to find
    Real peace begins inside
    In our hearts and in our minds
    Hearts and minds begin to see
    That one and all means you and me
    And what we know can set us free
    Rearrange reality
    Reality is what we know
    We can change a river?s flow
    Plant a seed, watch it grow
    Build a shelter, build a home
    Home is where my heart will stay
    Even when I?m far away
    Makes no difference what they say
    As long as you will be my sunshine
    Sunshine when you?re with me I can fly
    Sunshine when you?re with me I can fly
    When I?m feeling sad and low
    And I?m not sure where to go
    And all the good times that I?ve known
    Have gone and left me all alone
    All alone I?ll never be
    Long as you are here with me
    You?re in everything I see
    And everything I?m doing
    All I do I do for you
    You?re my sun, you?re my moon
    Every lazy afternoon
    You?re my inspiration
    Inspiration lights the way
    Brings a sparkle to each day
    Makes the dark clouds go away
    Let us let the children play
    Sunshine when you?re with me I can fly
    Sunshine when you?re with me I can fly
    Music is the reason why
    People laugh people cry
    Sing and dance and clap their hands
    It?s how the whole world understands
    Understands that we are one
    Makes no difference what you?ve done
    Or where you live under the sun
    We are only human
    Only human yes it?s true
    Still the mystery is you
    And the sky so clear and blue
    Makes every day feel so brand new
    Brand new day throughout the world
    For all the little boys and girls
    If everybody lends a hand
    We can live together!
    Sunshine when you?re with me I can fly
    Sunshine when you?re with me I can fly
    😇
