Oh yes sir. It's been such a might long time. And guess what. U sound great singing it too. I remember back in my good days. I 4ever sung that song on our porch 2gether with my favorite aunt. And I still love the song. So keep singing. Okay. May God bless us all.Amen ♥️
Thank you. Yes, keep on singing as long as we can!
Amen and Amen 🙏
He's great....Right
That was good. Sounds like the original but with your own twist. Great job❤
Thanks
Loved It One Of The Best Songs Ever
Thank you very much!
I'm on a jag about this song and I wanted to hear it sung by a man so I've been listening to all covers of it on the list and yours is the only one I could find. I thank you for singing it and letting me hear it. I really liked it and now I'd sure like to hear it with the backgrounds and all instrumentation.
I wish I had recorded my band playing it. We enjoyed performing it, but only played it together 2 or 3 times before, unfortunately, some band members developed health conditions rendering them unable to perform anymore. It's a reality of experienced, but aging musicians. Hopefully some younger guys take the baton and run with it.
@Calvin Hodge Lake Thanks
❤❤ I loved your rendition, great vibe right on key.....this is a hard song to sing....I loved it.....thanks 😍 ❤ ♥
Thank you. I appreciate the kind words.
Your cover of Hello, Stranger, made my year, thank you. 🤍
Thank you very much for the kind words.
Such a great song. You nailed this cover!! 👍👍
Thank you very much!
Oldies are the best I'm in my early 30 and ice been bumping this music since I a was a kid
Thanks. Yes, I love music over the different generations but music from the 1960s was usually innovative and well-written.
NIICCCEEEEEE
Thanks!!
Wow.. amazing, you got it
Thank you!
really enjoying your version!
Thank you very much!
Love it. I love this song
Thank you!
You are fabulous! Amazing vocals.
Thank you very much!
Amazing voice!!!
Thank you!
really nice job. Not an easy song to sing but you did it justice and more
Thank you very much!
Absolutely fantastic!
Thank you!
I have only listened to Yvonne Elliman's version and really liked it, but you did an excellent rendition of this song. Great job...
Thank you!
Well done! Great rendition of one of my favorites!!
Thanks. Yes, it’s one of my favorites from that era.
You are absolutely amazing thank you my sweet friend!
Thank you for the kind words!
Thanks Lou
Love this song. Must give it a try using your tutorial.
Thanks for listening. I think Barbara Lewis sings this in the key of C, but I had to lower it a step (age has caught up with my vocal range). If you want to play it in C, just transpose it up a step. Chords would basically be a mix of Cmaj7, Dm7, Em7, and G7, instead of those in the tutorial. You can throw in the major and minor 9ths when necessary.
Love your rendition. Love that wonderful voice of yours.
Thank you very much
I am pleasantly surprised. I like this guy. You did a nice job.
Thank you!
Excellent rendition!!!
Thank you!
I have to say I think this is excellent. A great cover of a truly beautiful and nostalgic song. Well done!
Thank you very much!
Maaaan,you killing it with that organ/synthesizer.I love/listen to ALL forms of music=Rock,Soul,Country,Pop,Rap,BUT nothing beats a MaN or Woman emoting about current /or pAst loves and the sounds produced live=chilling.Could YOU please cover the castaways If our love is true and city of fools with YOUR musical acumen,I know it will be Slamming.Thank U for ALL that I Do!
Thanks. I like many styles of music too. I’ll check out those songs.
...nice...
Thank you!

aye man I love this song Ive literally probably have heard it over 100 times over the span of years. Seeing your video at first glance I didn't think you would do a good job, but you nailed it brother. Good tone all the way through and you sang with soul respectively all the way through . Good job man keep up the good work :) Also thanks for the inspiration brotha
Thank you very much!
Una de mis baladas más románticas. Desde la Ciudad de México, mi corazón se emociona.
Muchas gracias. Me alegra que te haya gustado.

@@ldmmusic58 tres versiones increíble Barbara Lewis, yvónne Elliman y tu
Go head cuz
Well done!
Thank you very much!
Nice voice
Thanks so much!
Wonderful song and you really did a great job with it; for a white guy 😂, just kidding. I really love that bold Hammond Organ riff, that you played perfectly.
LOL. Thank you.
Really, really good!!
Really enjoyed it.
Thank you!
beautiful done!
Thank you. Glad you liked it!
ldmmusic58 yes fantastic keep up the great work!
Keep comin' back
Thanks👍
oh interesting you changed it to Bb since the original is in key of C but it sounds spot on I didn't even notice at first haha like I said before, keep up the good work! A good singer knows their range and where they sound good and I can tell you adjusted it for a reason nice!!
Yes, I had to change the key. When I was under 50 years old I could have sung it in C. Not any more. We lose range with age. I’ve learned to pay attention to my limitations. BTW, it’s nice to have musicians comment. Thanks.
@@ldmmusic58 keep it up man, thanks for the inspiration brother. I hope that band you play with appreciates an amazing keyboard play like yourself :)
Muito bom👋👋
Obrigada!!
You got it done Bro ! 👏👏🎼🎶🎹🎙️😎👊, Where is your band out of?
Thanks for the compliment. We were all from Philadelphia or the surrounding suburbs. That video is from 2017. Me prepping for a rehearsal. The band has gotten up there in age now. Three of the 5 have stopped playing. Father Time isn’t always kind.😕
nice vocal, man.
Thanks👍
❎. Sweet. 💎
🤺💐
Thank you very much!
As Danny Moreno requested below, I posted a tutorial to play and sing harmonies to this song. It's at czcams.com/video/0wuvPYLT6JA/video.html
Thank you so much!
I like the song. You did a good job. I will be buying a new piano. I've never had one. Since I was 5 or 6 I loved the piano. My aunt had one and could play. What pianos are you using?
Thanks for the compliment. The keyboard on the bottom is the Yamaha YPG-235. It has 73 semi-weighted keys, is light weight, portable, and is reasonably priced. The Yamaha on the top is only 61 keys, and I typically use it for adding brass, strings, or guitar parts when playing at gigs. I used it in this video only for the volume pedal to accentuate the organ riff; otherwise I only needed the bottom keyboard. 61 keys aren't enough to play many songs using both hands. I've used a variety of makes and models of keyboards and have come to appreciate Yamaha's quality. If you buy a full 88 key piano, the weight and the price go up quite a bit.
Good job! Some background singers might do you well.
Thanks!!
Can you Tell me the chords for this? and the intro please thanks!
I'm playing this in the key of Bb. There are versions in B and in C on the internet that you would just transpose up a half or full step. I just tried to paste my chord & lyric sheet above...just click SHOW MORE. It doesn't format the same, but it should help. The chords are basically Bbmaj7 Cm7 Dm7 Cm7 back to Bbmaj7. Often I throw in a Bbmaj9 and Dm9 to add some variety.
awesome thank you so much!! great cover btw. keep up the good work and thanks for the help as I am a beginner on the piano, this really helped me out!
Glad it helped. I tend to improvise a little each time I play something, so they're usually not identical each time I play them. I figure most songs by ear, and make lyric and chord sheets (with notes) that I use as a guide.
ldmmusic58 nice, is it possible to get a quick video on you actually pressing the keys that way i can see which exact notes are being played, as idk how to read music quite yet.
I'll try to do that and post it on my channel over the next couple of weeks
😂
Thank you
great keyboard but If you did the vocals raw it would be bitchin
Thanks. The older I get, the harder it becomes to hit the high notes 😀
@@ldmmusic58 imperfection does not override your emotional attachment to the song. One of my favorite songs is brick by ben folds five which is not the best vocals but I could feel his emotion with every word.
