MikeW Date Submitted:  2020-03-20 [Archive Date: 2020-06-18] Genre:  Oldies Original Artist:  Roy Orbison Additional Info:  Disc Mfg:    Disc #:   Description:  Every time I hear this song, I does bring a tear to my eye. He died in 1966, he was a recruiting sergeant in La Porte, Indiana, and I was in radar school at Fort Bliss, Texas. And even with us not being on the best of terms, it pains me to think the my kids will never know their Granddad. I particularly like Roy's version because it's not quite like all the other versions out there. I thank you for the listen. I submitted this song yesterday, but it was 200mb too large, so I had to remember how to easily change the bitrate, to lessen it's size. That's easy for you to say. lol Overall Rank:  Rank Unavailable Total Comments:  3 Listen:      [Be certain that Pop-ups are not blocked]

And, your most lovely tenor voice and lyrical delivery and mix are supreme here! Reply: Thank you very much, Jerry. What I particularly like about this song, is you get a view point of both the father and son. talking to each other. One verse, it's the son, the other, the father. Unique.

This is a beautiful song Mike W. Ahhhhhhhhh there's the Danny Boy I know and love. Sigh....Sweet Sweet High notes. I must admit I never heard Roy Orbison's version, but this is wonderful. Such a magnificent tribute to your father. Fabulous Sing Mike. I am certain that he heard every note. Mwahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, Pam Reply: No, I probably misspoke. The song was 8.2 mbyte. 2 kilo bytes too large, not megabytes. Sorry for the misinformation. Hey, I am 73, after all. lol It's in my genes, after all, to make bonehead mistakes like that. But still, I am a premium member. lol And despite my mistake, I'm happy you hung around for a complete listen. Thank you very much, Pam. Much appreciated.
