What's up guys! Not sure if there are any Foreigner fans in the building. Always loved this song. The chord progression is so great! Hope u dig my take on it.

Thanks! I quit smoking cigarettes 3 years ago. Best thing I ever did. I couldn't get through a song without either coughing or running out of breath. E-cigs saved me!

And yeah, that was me in the subway. I'm doing a weekly video and/or song upload. It's a good challenge. Keeps me active musically. I appreciate your words man!

No problem.. Keep up the good work....If I was more your age and we lived a reasonable distance  from each other  id hunt you down and put a working cover band together and sneak in originals..  w00t!   Then go from there.. Im sure you will anyway..

Man, your voice is so good - it's unreal. You could do a killer version of I Want To Know What Love Is. Great video and cover!

You, my friend, are incredibly gifted. I've been checking your stuff out here for a while now but I don't think I've ever commented. I was blown away by your "My Cherie Amour" cover a while back, and everything since. I would kill for your vocal range (nailing some high C's in this cover!), and you seem to be quite an amazing multi-instrumentalist as well. I encourage you to pursue your musical dreams to the fullest because it's clear you are a musician 100%.

Thanks for sharing your music and I look forward to seeing what's next for you!

Thanks so much man! That's a great song. Love those big 80's power ballads!

Gregg, thanks a lot man! Really appreciate you checking out my stuff and hitting me with those encouraging words. Do you have perfect pitch? Way to point out the high note!

I think over the years I've developed something close to perfect pitch, probably more like relative pitch. The chorus lick just sounded like G-A-C-A to my ears but I went to my keyboard to confirm.  Smiley

Anyway, you've got killer vocal chops and great musical instincts, so I think the sky's the limit for you. I hope you find a larger audience and the success that genuine talent like yours deserves. In the meantime, I look forward to anything else you decide to share!

I watched the "subway" clip too.  This is much better.  You have a very good voice and feel for this song.  Give us a link to the Stevie track.  Do you have a full band?  Doing clubs?
Good luck, sure you could take this somewhere.  peace,  Will
