- This song was a hit for Harry Nilsson in 1968 and was popularized by being part of the soundtrack in the movie Midnight Cowboy. Written by Fred Neil... it's been a long-time favorite of mine.
After 25 years of marriage, one day my wife said "whatever we had, it's not there anymore" and left. The loss and being alone was hard to accept. When I looked in the mirror, there was no one looking back. And the lyrics of "Everybody's talking at me but I can't hear a word they're sayin' " was my life for a long while. When you see someone wandering the streets, they may be lost in the echoes of their mind.
🥶🥶😛
This is the best version of Fred Neil's song I've ever heard. Wow! Guitars and voice are superb.
Same thought. 👌🏼
Oh wow, beautiful, I have loved this song since I was a kid, 66 now, still loving it, fantastic job sir, bless you!!
Beautifully sung with a polished voice and excellent guitar skill. Probably been playing forever. Gracefully aged like fine wine too. Keep em coming.
Great cover. Jimmy's passing brought me here today. RIP Harry; RIP Jimmy.
I'm not being hyperbolic when I say this is one of the best covers I've ever seen. straight up 1000/10 - Rick, thank you for sharing your gift with the world. much love
I love this so much.
Too good. Wish it would go on all day.
I had the pleasure of performing with this gentleman last Sunday in Exeter, NH for the Steelpalooza Show, which featured three pedal steel guitar players! Memorable... thank you Rick
The old boy can really sing and play. Very nice.
Absolutely beautiful
Beautiful . That is one song that reflects the 1960’s . Its meaning is still valid today.
Fantastic 👍👍👍
Great rendition. Few songs represent the 1960’s as well as this song.
One word: "Amazing"
Very ,very good.
of all the many many cover attempts of this song on youtube.... this is the only one to listen to... this man can sing.
One of my favorite all time songs from 1969
Really amazing tone in that guitar, you make that six string sound like a 12 string. So rich.
Best version ever, outstanding!!!! .....James
Best cover of any song ever.
Perfect !
Hard to believe after over 2000 views you only received only 78 likes! What a special cover of this classic tune. Wonderful voice cover and I loved your guitar strumming as well. Thanks for this wonderful post!
Incredible cover vocally and musically. No idea why this has not picked up 1000s of likes.
Wow! That was fantastic. The sound quality is terrific. Love the vocals and the guitar playing too. Great job.👍🇨🇦👍
Absolutely amazing. Bravo!
Fred Neil - one of the greatest song writers of all time - and my personal favorite.
Your version is absolutely awesome! Love the guitar work and very impressed with the instrument. Glad I found this video. Thanks for posting.
Glorious. You took nothing away from Nilsson's original and really made it your own.
Man you are talented, lovely version of this classic.
Wow I really love this version. I love the guitar arrangement. It's almost a cross between the original and Harry Nilsson's version. I might like your guitar part then the one on Harry's.
Wow! Mindblowing, perhaps even better than the real one ... certainly more soothing
Superb version of a great song, with a fabulous groove.
Beautiful voice and lovely rendition of a timeless song!❤❤
Great version. Nice choices on the vocal melody.
Love tis version, awesome 👏
wow, this should be lighting up the tube. Excellent
One of the best renditions
Absolutely amazing talent and sound, Mr. Watson! For the past few years I've been on this kick of having to learn to play and sing a song once it's stuck in my head; Everybody's Talking At Me is the most recent. This is by far the best rendition I've found on TH-cam. Great work.
Agreed.
So nice.
Wow! You are very gifted Sir! This is the best version of this beautiful song I have ever heard. Your mature vocals and style of play reflect beautifully in this performance. Amazing. Thank you!

Rick you are so good, man. I just listened to you do that great song 3 times in a row. I really wanted to spin it a forth time but I was starting to embarrass myself.
P.s. That sure is a nice guitar.
WOW!!!!!!!!!! So smooth! That was wonderful!
Bella interpretación la mejor después de la de Harry Nilsson
So in love this.
Oh, what a great pleasure for my ears, my soul, and my memories....Awesome cover! And, it was fun playing along with you. I truly appreciate your skills...wish I had your voice...
Hey Rick !! Today I accidentally found your channel !!! Your version of the theme from "Midnight Cowboy" by Harry Nillson sounds brilliant !!! I play it Now with you on one of my old beautiful guitars. This is the perfect German Framus Gaucho from 1969, so from the year of production of the movie .... Framus plays with the Schaller Western II pickup .... In a few days I will play your version with my old friends during the rehearsal of our acoustic band. Best regards, Jack - from the city of Gniezno- Poland.
Absolutely brilliant. I get the feeling you love BJ Thomas too. Keep up the good work and thank you for this.x
Loved it! I know of Fred Neil because I was a fan of Tim Buckley, he covered a few. 'Dolphin' was and is a great song
Have you sung this one 🤞
Sounds better than the original!
