...but I can still ask you to listen please.  This is the first day I've been able to sing after being sick for quite a while.

I like it dan.
 
You have a smooth and controlled voice reminding me of Kenny Rogers.
 
Dunno the original that well (although the chorus does sound familiar).
 
Instrument is all good, maybe tweak the drums a little more, like a stop or an off hihat hear and there to take the monotony out of it.

I think Cian is spot on with the drums. Love your voice. You have a great feel for this song.

Another great song from the master of sing. Left you a message on YouTube. Nice picture show and some great singing. Always a pleasure. Glad your feeling better, now we get to hear more!!
 
Peace and Blessings, John

Thanks, everyone.  I'll work on the drums and the ending.

Sounds nice.

Hey Dan!
 
Beautifully done! Excellent job on the vocal and your arrangement.
 
Regards,
Dan
 

Dan,
What an outstanding vocal performance!  I am glad to hear that your health is such that you were able to share this with us. 
 
A couple of observations (I was listening on PC speakers):

• I felt the vocal lacked just an touch of sparkle on the EQ.
• I LOVE the organ part, however I kept waiting for the leslie to kick in .  Just a personal preference.

Outside of that the instrumentation was very well done.
 
Thanks again for sharing,
Rich
 

Dan,
 
Big fan of your vocals, no exception here.  Sounds really good. 
 
Regards

Love your vocal and the way you felt this song.  I always loved this one.
