One positive his diction is clear.I found the dancing a distraction, and not as good as Mick Jagger

Oh for the days when singers were judged by the quality of their performance and didn't have to reply on pop music style video productions to attract attention.

This is like folk song for folks that don't like folk song.

There are a lot of things going on in that arrangement that are encouraging and important. Sam Lee has made some errors, however, I have always believed his heart is in the right place, and the musical arrangement here is quite encouraging. It appears to incorporate a number of cultural areas, and that cannot be bad. I can hardly stand up so I am not commenting on the dancing. My only criticism would be that Sam has dragged the rhythm, and the story limps along as a result. His vocals are pleasant and the tone of his voice is attractive.
Fewer histrionics and I would have no argument at all.

I do not like this...nor much of what Sam Lee does...seems way to Mannered.

Some will like that it is using modern methods on an old song..and love it.
I say good luck to them...but it's not for me..

Ps. It is a song I have recorded twice...using two different tunes...and that may add to my feelings about the performance...??
