    My father and I had a difficult relationship to put it very mildly. This song always reminds me of that relationship. I played it on a tape recorder at his funeral. I hope his soul heard it. I will always shed a tear when I hear this song. It is so impactful that I can't listen to it in its entirety. Music does that to me.

      I WAS there the morning my father passed away. He was on life support. He was breathing, there was a pulse.... but he was really dead. I tried to wake him up but that effort failed. I will NEVER forget that day for the rest of my life.

    When this was originally released I had just lost my father, knowing the background to the song and having many similarities in my life to Mikes this song really struck a personal chord. Thank you thank you thank you to all of you in HSCC especially the talented Constantine for his arrangement of what can only be described as a classic.

      It was released when I had been living in the UK for a year, doing the Aussie working holiday thing. My sister came to visit, and it came on the radio as I was driving her around. I almost crashed the car, with the tears in my eyes! We had, let's say, a complicated relationship with him. But at the back of my mind was that fear - what if something happened while I was away?

    This is among the best you have done lately. Danny nails the lead, the back up vocals are dead nut perfect, and the musicians are spot on. Gave me goose bumps. I am 64, lost my Dad when I was 23. He missed seeing his first grandson by 6 months.
    Were were tight, but this song really has a message...time goes by faster than you think. There is no fixing problems once one of you is gone. If there is someone you love who you know you need to reach out to, even if you have some disagreement, do it. Make the effort. Offer the olive branch to at least start trying to fix whatever is wrong.
    Try...if you are met with a closed door, or a closed mind, try again later. If you need to forgive find it in your heart to do so.
    Tomorrow isn't guaranteed to any of us...as REO Speedwagon said, Live every moment, love every day, because before you know it, your precious time slips away..
    Sorry for the rant...it just came out....

    That song has such an emotional connection for so many people. Watching 11 people “get in the zone” the way they did, tells me the band felt that emotion. Dan is always on his game, but he was absolutely dialed in for this one and he appeared to connect with the song on some level-and it was a joy to watch. The backing vocals were incredible and Cons arrangement was brilliant. We got to see a different side of the HSCC tonight and it confirmed what I’ve known for a while….not only is this band filled with some of the most talented musicians on the planet, more importantly, it’s filled with some of the finest people on the planet.

    A rich, full cover of one of my favourite songs of all time. A song deep in meaning and message. Well done to all! Just beautiful. Thank you!!
    My own father died in 2012, aged 93 years. He was a WWII Wellington bomber pilot and a hero (saved a plane and its crew though never spoke a word about it). My mother was bi-polar most of her adult life and bedridden with depression, so my childhood was mixed, but my dad always did what he could to make up for it. He was blind the last 20 years of his life but well looked after by my step-mother. When visiting him one day, I held his hand, kissed him on the head and told him I loved him and that despite everything, I felt I had a happy childhood. His eyes misted up but he said nothing and we just sat for a while in silence.
    He passed just a few weeks later and it was indeed in a morning and I wasn't there. But I feel fortunate to have no regrets.

      You and all the guys associated with HSCC ( past and present 😉 ) deserve acknowledgement for your hard work and the joy you bring to so many ...to be able to do that, if only for 5 minutes, is a gift that we should all treasure.

    Even though my father is still very much alive and well, this song never fails to make me do a full ugly cry. When this was still new I was in elementary school and can remember singing it during a school choir and band concert. There wasn't a dry eye in the room after we finished performing the song. Such a tough one to listen to for countless people. That said, you all did a wonderful job covering it. Well done as always. ☺

    When I was a teen, this song was just a song I really liked, describing the complexities of losing your father. As a 54 year old who just lost his dad, and ultimately, his best friend...this is a gut punch of emotion. Not going to lie...I cried while watching this. The message of this song is now all too personal. Thank you HSCC for this performance.

    Grabbing an emotional and thoughtful song and making it your own is no easy task. Danny, you owned this one for sure. Loved the "true to the original" arrangement. The groove was nice but understated...the vocals giving it that mini-mass choir feel, along with the opening guitar lick...simple...but effective. Lots to like about this one.
