    Think Ray would be proud .... A Polish boy, smashing it in a German pub ..... Soul is Universal, international and colour blind 👌

    This beautiful young man was born with a very old soul deeply rooted in blues music. His band is equally talented as anyone can see but Lech carries this Ray Charles song with chops. Wish Ray could have met him.

    I am finding it very difficult to add a suitably grand compliment to this singer and the whole band. They have all got what it takes to stop whatever one is doing and listen to them and get totally absorbed by this tune originally made by the greatest of them all, Ray Charles. Thank you all and Ray Charles for this wonderful gift

    It brings a tear into my eyes
    When I begin to realize
    I've cried so much since you've been gone
    I guess I'll drown in my own tears
    I sit and cry just like a child
    My pouring tears are runnin' wild
    If you don't think you'll be home soon
    I guess I'll drown, oh yes, in my own tears
    I know it's true, mm hmm, into each life
    Oh, some rain, rain must pour
    I'm so blue here without you
    It keeps a-raining more and more
    Why can't you come on home?
    Oh yes so I won't be all alone
    If you don't think you'll be home soon
    I guess I'll (drown in my own tears)
    Oh, don't let me (drown in my own tears)
    When I'm in trouble, baby (drown in my own tears)
    Oh let me in, don't let me (drown in my own tears)
    I guess I'll drown in my own tears
    Woh, mmmmm

    They’re drinking and laughing and talking while he’s channeling. Horrible life. The problem is he never takes off. He can’t. He’s got 9/10ths. Ray had 10/10ths. A shame. Ray would explode after the buildup. I think this guy could, but he doesn’t.
