    The 4 string is carrying this song like a man. Hats off Mr. Bass Man. The lead singer sounds like a country singer doing an R&B song and she did it perfectly. She stayed straight, didn't try to copy the original just did her thing, no BS growls just singing. A true blue old school country girl singer, hard to find nowadays. California Dreaming and this, top two.

    I've watched many of these School of Rock videos and they have all been well done technically. The one thing I have felt that is lacking in the main vocalists aren't singing like they mean it. It often comes across as if they don't understand the song or don't attack it with their talent. They sing it fine but they just are "feeling it." This lass tho? She gets its. So well done, Moving with feeling. If you can move this old woman's heart you've nailed it. Thank you!

    Abstract painting emerged when earlier figurative and realistic painting masterpieces were made impossible to surpass. It was the most logical next step. Modern metal is only about speed and brutality, which, after a very short while, gets absolutely boring. Music needs space in order to let creativity show its face. I like the fact that many quite young aspiring musicians and artists explore other areas, different approaches, sounds, grooves, while leaving their personal touch on various renditions of classic pop or rock pieces. It's refreshing, inspiring and very exciting. Keep it up young friends, you're doing good, and you're making your parents proud.

    Tengo 63 años, desde los 7 ( decada sesentera) comence a apasionarme por la musica y admirar todo tipo de talento virtuoso,. Lirico natural o estudiado.
    Sin petulancia, me concidero un oido critico de los colores y sonidos de las voces y cuerdas. Lo que acabo de escuchar me corto la respiracion, me hizo sentir una emocion coctail de alegria, nostalgia, ganas de llorar y a la ves de reir.
    Cuanto vale la pena vivir para atestiguar y disfrutar las maravillas que la vos y talento del ser humano es capaz de lograr.
    Gracias jovenes por ese regalo.

    Fifty years ago I saw Gladys Knight sit on a stool and sing this song and I fell in love. It has been an all time favorite that I still listen to alot. I've heard many others do this song and a couple of them were OKish. When I heard this version though I fell in love again. I couldn't find this young ladys name so I could find more from her. I hope she gets the recognition she deserves and we get the joy of hearing her more.
