Best male cover of this song I have ever heard. Absolutely perfect. Well done!!!
One of the best songs of all time... sung BRILLIANTLY. Congratulations.
Never thought anyone could sound as good as Roberta Flack recording this song in the 1970s.. but you did it.. 🔥💕
This means a lot, thank you!
Love this guy
Great
There are some songs sung by some singers that, upon first hearing, you know you will be coming back to for the rest of your life. This is one of those very rare songs by a stupendously talented singer and interpreter. What's almost unbelievable is that so many of Richard's "Song a Day" performances make that list.
Oh my God! I cannot express in words how much I love you singing this beautiful song..One of my all time favorites..Thank You!
Better than Roberta Flack! Stunningly beautiful. What a gift! Thanks ❤️❤️❤️
Used to sing this at wedding receptions and bars. LOVE this song. Thank you Richard, stunning.
This may actually be the best you’ve ever done. The tears won’t stop. Incredible!
Magnificent! One of the best renditions ever recorded. Definitely belongs on the new album. ❤️
lifts my poor old heart singing so beautifully. I takes me back years and years to the first time I saw my husband. He was sitting on a bar stool laughing. It was forever and ever until he passed.
Great choice of song & you sang it so amazingly, your beautiful voice & all the emotion took it to another level ❤️
That song definitely belongs on your CD!
I was very young when I heard Roberta Flack singing this song. It moved me then and Richard's rendition moves me now. I'm nearly 60 and I appreciate the younger generation who have a gift of blowing it out of the 'ball park'.
Amazing, beautiful performance. One of your best, ever! Absolutely include it in a second album. Greetings from Florida.
You are lucky to have such range. Thank you for singing to us.
Thanks Violet 😁 it’s a pleasure
Ahhh...BEAUTIFUL !!! Roberta definitely put this song on the map, but the writer needs credit. English/ Scottish Ewan MacColl fell in love and wrote this for a woman that became his future wife. Hearing a man with such a beautiful voice like yours doing this song justice... gave me goose bumps, but also made my eyes well up.... just, Superb !!! Thank you soooo much for being ... just ... you !
Richard, There is one song that comes to mind that might fits your talent. its a song written by Rob Hyman, {the Hooters} and the one who sang it to a hit Cyndi Lauper, "Time after Time" the words are so beautiful and i think your voice would give a new dimension to it. later !
Supreme mastery of vocal command and the emotional life of this song...just beautiful!
I've said it b4 but it bears repeating...he can sing anything!!!
Well I have loved this song for too long to remember although it’s a hard ask for even some of the greats to beat Roberta Flack’s take on it (which most of the covers emulate in their melody). However in places I almost heard the Ewan MacColl/Peggy Seeger original melody creep in.
It’s notable that MacColl pretty much hated every cover of his song which he wrote for Seeger, however Flack’s take on the melody, much slower tempo & emotional vocal propelled it into the stratosphere making it her huge breakout hit, & the version most folk recognise.
Kudos for taking on such a landmark track & giving it the Hadders touch. Thoroughly enjoyed it.
Thank you for this I knew it would suit your voice as you have the power and the gentleness to draw the emotions fully!! 💖 BRAVO!! 💖
One for the second CD? Yes please!! 😁 CHOOKAS!! 💖
I can 't stop listening! This has to be my all time favourite!
I hate to admit it, but you were right to leave Collabro to sing "your way and songs right for you.". Your sparkling personality has blossomed and happiness is all over your face. Not so much when you were with Collabro. Makes me smile no matter what you sing. Don't ever stop sharing your talent. You have no idea the depression you lift from your followers on a daily basis. May God bless you on your journey. JC
I hate to agree with you.
I think he was booted. Seems like out of jealousy. Probably the dumbest thing they could do. Never as good or successful as a 5 piece.
Richard you just keep getting better and better!!! I have always loved this song but rarely heard anything to match Roberta Flack - till now. A WONDERFUL rendition, thank you.
Matt Cardle sang it well too
I listen to you every night, as I'm falling asleep. Your voice sooths my soul.
Hi Richard, would love to hear this song on your second album - greetings from Christine in Australia xo
Absolutely beautiful and mesmerizing!
The first time I heard you sing this song it’s wonderful absolutely wonderful.
Love all your songs to keep corona away. I am a fan for life. Xxx
Wonderful job. Beautifully sung.
I have listened to this track on SADKCA vol. 2 many many times and it still gives mee goosebumps every time I do. So so beautiful Richard.
Beautiful....so beautiful.
Wow! Excellent vocal and dynamics. You seemed like you were channeling someone very special. It's nice to see a man in love.
Love Roberta Flack but love this guy voice. His male voice is absolutely beautiful. Nice job on this beautiful classic song.
Breathtaking. I lost my husband six years ago. It was one of those timeless loves that existed before we were born here, and carries on from both sides of the veil. I could feel his presence with me while you sang this. You have an incredible and sacred gift. Thank you.
Something that seldom happens...I'm speechless!!
Hi Richard
Great number - and for your second CD - love songs and musical numbers ?
Warm regards
Richard
That was beautiful Richard. Have you ever sung "I believe in you"?
BRILLIANT GUY.

You needed to be free to express who you are...to sing songs that suit you, and to give us such beauty...thank you...

This is such a beautiful song, just amazing 😁
That was beautiful! Please sing "At Last.". I love Etta James' rendition
I remember that song when it 1st came out so many years ago. Roberta Flack, if I remember correctly. I absolutely LOVE your rendition of this song.
Roberta Flack's cover came out in 1969 (album) and 1972 (single). The song is from 1957.
So perfect and moving your voice I could listen to all day long you have a gift keep safe see you same place same time yours Mrs Jones
OMG, beautiful, soothing. Love this
The most angelic voice in the world, I love it. Love, from Ky USA.
Brings back both happy and sad feelings...a beautiful rendition.
BEAUTIFUL.
Love to hear your interpretation of Cole Porter - Night and Day.
Your voice is mesmerizing ...
Richard, would you consider singing "If Ever I would leave you" from Camelot?
Love this song.
Incroyable ,je regarde tous tes vidéos tous Awesome . Love this song
This is one of my favourites, Thank you Richard. You sung this perfectly.
What else can be said ,just wonderful Richard
Oh Now I'm teary! That doesn't happen often. Thank you Richard
I love your voice and how expressive you are when you sing! You remind me of a good friend who could also sing extremely well. We were in choir together in school and put on a production of Amall and the night visitors. He did a solo of 'this is my box". I would love to hear you sing that!
Best version, ever. Really, really lovely.
Wow! Honestly wonderful! Interpretation is perfect and lingers in the heart of the listener.
Amazing, just amazing. Thank you Richard.
Exquisite! as always.... Thank you... and thank you for your ongoing songs...

You sang beautifuly.God gave you good voice.
That was beautiful
Awesome!
Stunning - melts me like butter.
Only just got to see this and it gave me shivers I absolutely love that song and it should be on the new one. Can I request When The Good Times Come Again. It seems to fit these times we are living through xxc
Absolutely Beautiful Richard. I've just listened to 4 of your postings on You Tube and I'm knocked out with you talent. I could tell your singing ability was outstanding from the first time I saw Collabro on BGT. You made a good choice, stepping out on you own. Keep it up!
Love the way you sang this song, made me think of lovely memories. Please add this to your "love song" album. Arrange distribution for the USA if possible. Could not believe the amazing way you sang this song. I'll have a front row seat to your concert. Love it, love it, love it
That was absolutely dreamy 😍. I love listening to you sing.
How about a really old one - "it's been a long long time". A lassie sings it playing a guitar on tiktok and it's absolutely beautiful. I would love to hear you sing it. Xx
I've loved Matt Cardle's version since seeing it on X factor and males singers rarely can hot the notes properly.....but you are definitely the best male voice I've heard sing every note with feeling !!!! Fan since Bring Him Home !!!! Cheers from across the pond
I came here to find out what happened to you. Loved you in Collabro but it's great to hear just your voice. I see this was three years ago so am wishing you have found all the success you were hoping for. This comes from So Calif.
Absolutely wonderful!!
Beautiful Richard. Ty.
Bravo !!! Fantastic
Nailed it and then some.
So, so beautiful. My eyes are leaking again. Richard you are costing me a fortune in tissues. Yes yes yes please put this on SADKCA vol 2
Get a hanky! 😂 so glad you’re enjoying the songs Lynda 😁 lots of love to you for your support x
@@richardhadfield2712 I remeber those disgusting things. Boiling them on the stove and then rinsing the slime off. Bad enough when they were mine but when they were my husbands YEEEUK.
Loved every minute of this.
BEAUTIFUL....
Wow, baby! Very emotional indeed! Thanks for sharing.
Bravooo...👍
Best voice of collabro
Your voice is so unique you make make every song magical!
Absolutely beautiful
This song was sung exquisitely! I love your version better than the original which I've loved nearly 40 years! This song definitely needs to be on the next album!
I love your version bro..

Bravo! Beautiful performance! Love your recent choices and cannot wait till CD 2 is out! Keep up the awesome work!
Obrigada Richard ...Que maravilhosa interpretação! 👏👏👏🇧🇷
