I cannot believe that he sounds just as good live as he does on CD - mark of a true artist. :)

This voice is so mesmerising - this is what music is - dark, haunting and beautiful all at the same time!

Holy crap is this good or what??? I just discoveredf this tune last night on the radio & can't stop listening to it. Was shocked to see this has been out at least 6 months. Plus the other songs from this performance are just as good. This song expresses the sentiments I have been unable to put in words many a year now. Just excellent!!!

I love Ray's music. I see there are a few people on this forum who think his music sounds like someone else's. While I love his music and voice because it's creative, I can't deny that when I listen to his voice, I am reminded of Dan Fogelberg.

Everytime I hear this song it takes me places and back in time around 40 years.

This is a timeless piece of artwork. The song captures the essence of what most people whine about being absent in today's music...

[Seffrey]

How did someone dislike this? May the lord have mercy on you, jk. But for real dude is awesome abs so was this performance.

The first time I heard this, I thought he was covering a Joni Mitchell tune... the song just owes so much to Joni's style. Great tune!

Only 3 people out of 61310 views decided to turn themselves into haters, which is an unusual thing on YouTube. there must be something special in this song. I simply love it, one of my favorite.

@mytide46 I totally thought this was Tracy Chapman when I heard it on the radio!

He does give me a Joni connection from a different era (mine), but there is a Ray that really is his own singer....
