    I cry every time I watch this man singing his heart out as the world collapses. He represents everything that Ireland once was, he is the embodiment of an entire way of life that is disappearing in front of our eyes. Peace be with you, Mick. You are everything I wish the world would return to--freedom, happiness, beauty, love and joy. Thank you for this beautiful video.

Never knew then I would have been playing this at his funeral 10 months later. Glad we shared the moment together and he agreed this was the greatest version of this song he had ever heard. Listening to it now makes me choke up but this version was as fucking brilliant as he was to me. Out standing

    Mick. I've been going into work every day since lockdown. Nothing special about it but the city centre in Manchester has been desolate at times. I was hoping some legend at the council would seize the opportunity and blast some music out from the rooftops to help lift moral. I originally wanted something like Al Green, Jackie Wilson or Stevie Wonder. but after hearing this. I've changed my mind.
    You can tell your Vocals were on form and you hit the sweet spot.
    Haunting and poignant.
    Maestro!
