      I agree. I worked for Neil for six months. He was pretty low key to be fair. He wrote so many amazing songs. I think, despite his huge success, he was still underrated full stop

    Does Neil Diamond himself make an oh-so-brief appearance in this video at 1:48 as one of the people seated at a table watching Isaak's performance? And singing the words softly to himself, his own words that he wrote?

    Yes I know it´s his song. But Cash´s version sounds a lot like Chris Isaac, that´s what I mean. I think Rubin didn´t think Diamond´s version but Isaac. You agree? Maybe both but I think they copied Isaac. Also Ville Valo of HIM must be Chris fan too, because they covered Wicked Game and Solitary Man. First one really well!

    The story behind Chris covering this song is that his mother was interviewed and she mentioned that while she was very proud of Chris he was no Neil Diamond. She's right...Chris sung this song better than Neil and that's saying something.

LoL yea I can see how the ladies would love Chris, he has some beauties in his videos too!! Wicked Game is a sexy song for sure, most of his music is really anyway take care pretty lady , sincerely,, Jerry

    Chris' voice can be buttery velvet, haunting, yearning, or sexually charged. Very few men have his range or his ability to grab women by their core and leave them breathless simply by the power of his voice...but his magnetism is undeniable. And to think I grew up less than 50 miles away from him and 2 years younger...Best of everything to you Chris and to your exceptional band! You're a class act💕
