    This is one of my all time favorite songs. I've seen Bono and U2 perform it live 5 times. I've seen countless covers, and some of them were actually done very well. Others, well, not so much. Now, I've arrived here and WOW!
    I'm ashamed to admit this, but before tonight, I'd never heard of Mr. Rogelio Douglas Jr. Well, I know who you are now! In my opinion, this is without a doubt, absolutely the best version of this song I've ever heard. I'm not saying the best cover, I'm saying the best version. Period. No disrespect to Bono and the boys, but in my mind, this song belongs to Rogelio Douglas Jr. now.
    Mr. Douglas, Sir, the chicken skin on my arms and neck is still dancing. Your voice is like the most golden, most silky, clearest ever honey, and it's flowing ever so smoothly, over a sharp, fine toothed rasp. Then, you go and pile even more on. Your stage presence, and those moves. Good God man! Your channeling Jackie Wilson AND James Brown! And doing them both proud as punch.
    The bands performance of this arrangement, nothing less than epic. Scott, I've not heard a single one of your arrangements that did not impress me. This one however, stands out as something extra special, occupying a place that is it's own. A tuba (Sousaphone) and a harmonica, c'mon, that matchup alone puts this in a category all of it's own.
    Now that I've brought up that harmonica . . . Jacob! Mr. Tambourine man. You are a man possessed! What a glorious performance. I cannot recall ever seeing a harp player displaying so much passion and energy. You too have created a category of your own.

    I wasn't aware of the spiritual meaning behind the lyrics. So it excellently fit to the gospel attsngement. I love the harmonies and the dynamics of the background singers, the virtuoso at the tambourin, the brillianz harmonica solo while holding tight to a column, and the dedicated and devoted splits by the lead singer where he obtained a significant health risk just to please the audience.
