I mentioned that I was out and didn't get to see the show but this friend did and she brought it to music the other night. If I had ever heard the song before, it's been a long time. Rangeroger, thanks for your PM response to me, and thanks for your offer. Thanks, guys. |

His cover of the song was just lousy... From the arrangement... to the presentation... |
