Outstanding, this song has always been special to my wife and I for a long long time, we’re going on 49 yrs together, but she has recently been diagnosed with a severe illness, I cry when I hear this incredible song. Thank you for your rendition 🥹🥺🥀💔❤🩹
Am getting married on the 28 of November and will certainly be walking down the aisle with this...... Your voice makes this dream a perfect reality.......🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
@@mralapenosarespicy it seems making commitments is a big problem to you bc it of fear. My dear there is more to life than being negative. To anxa u, no. Going to be sipping a drink looking at 4yrs of commitment listening to beautiful piece 🍾🥂♥️♥️♥️
Yes. You get it. The first four lines are delivered in an almost matter of fact description of a tome. Giving the scope of knowledge there. But the line "And instructions for dancing" is delivered more melodically and emphasized. Because that is the magic and wisdom held in the book. That emphasis, done in several lines throughout, carries the weight in a relatively simple song. It's absolutely necessary for a singer to be able to carry a tune or make use of vibrato, have decent range etc. But a song like this shows the difference between someone who can sing well and a real performer that comprehends what the music is trying to do. You're very talented.
@@ljr Thanks for the reply! I'm in Boston, MA, but if I ever get down there I'll definitely try to catch a show. Well done, man. Always nice to see and hear real talent.
Now I see why Peter Gabriel is one of your favorite artists. You sure sound great singing this song... so talented and the way you play the piano... great voice...
Awesome song Luke. Just loved it so much. Very inspirational and comforting. You are so talented and amazing!!! Love this song. I love all your music. This song touched my heart ❤️. You rock Luke!!! 😊🙏🙏🙏💙💙💙💙❤️❤️❤️
@@ljr i am a musician myself.never post comments but man.You do have talent.great great great voice.guess i hear some harmony effect there.Sounds fantastic.congratulations.
Oh my gosh! I love your rendition. Your voice is beautiful. I got tossed back to the first time I ever heard this song & lots of memories are flooding my mind. If I close my eyes I can see them dancing. Bravo!! 🖤🖤
Thank you so much Melissa!! ☺️ I’m so glad you like it and that it touched you in a meaningful way. That makes my heart happy. ❤️Thank you for listening!!
@@ljr My man - if life works out and I end up getting married, I will pay for you to fly out to Montana to play this. And if things don't work out for me - I'll fly you out here to play for a friends wedding. I'm not kidding when i say you have a killer voice. You did this better than Peter himself.
Thank you so much Mike. I wrote the piano part taking inspiration from Gabriels version of this song done on strings with an orchestra. Thanks for listening!
Ahh that is a huge compliment, he was my inspiration for this version from his scratch my back piano style and has always been a big inspiration for my singing. Thank you ❤️
