[@whos1st]

Thank you for this extraordinary rendition. Mr. Lightfoot would have been pleased with it.

[@janebishop5885]

Beautifully done and lovely tribute to Mr Lightfoot, our musical poet.

[@uncatila]

Guitar is spot on. The voice is tried and true.

[@uncatila]

Excellent guitar accompaniment. 🎸

[@jimthigpen333]

Awesome and beautiful performance!

[@alankenworthy9722]

Enchanting. Voice and guitar both faultless and mesmerising.

[@danielleblanc3010]

Very nice Alan !!!

[@vinmanojai]

Totally beautiful version of this classic Lightfoot song! Very,very nice Alan.

[@58landman]

Amazingly great cover. Love your singing and playing.

[@BawlmuhrBoy]

Alan, this is a magical and touching rendition of one of Gordon Lightfoot's greatest compositions. This rendition is how this work should be performed. (It is a shame that United Artists covered up the original Lightfoot solo guitar version with the string overdubs for 1960's AM radio audiences.) Thank you for posting this beautiful performance of a work that is one of the great "forgotten" love songs. It is seldom heard now, but cherished by all who know it.

Right on Salty!!!

[@bobdonovan4505]

very well said for Allan

[@stephennewkirk942]

Beautiful, you made this song your own. Love your voice and guitar.

[@gardendor1]

What wonderful guitar playing. This is the best cover I've heard so far of GL's The Last Time. But noone could sing it better then Lightfoot himself in the early day. I consider this tune one of Lightfoot's best. [Although he has many "bests"]. I never heard of Alan Thornhill, but now I will seek him out. I love discovering new artists. KZbin is one of the best things that has happened to the internet.

[@julessmithpaints]

Beautiful.

[@paulgildan4388]

Bravo! Beautiful song and performance. I wish you well in your musical future, Alan.

[@dulcineadeltabuso2806]

I think I'm in love... EXCELLENT rendition. PLEASE post MORE!

[@jimthigpen333]

Awesome job!!!❤️❤️❤️😊👍

[@drewrobertsongs]

This so good! Alan just takes you away . . .

[@ronaldpokatiloff5704]

It tells you just how perfect Gordon was on that first release, including the outstanding sound and backup. (His "affair on eight avenue " from UK live was perfectly done! Second best song for him.) This is the best pop sing ever!!!!

[@shirleytemple5461]

Beautiful. You sound allot like Lightfoot himself. This is my all time life long favorite song. The first time I heard it. 40 years ago, I cried for hours.

[@magnetoman88]

Just found this. Also my all time favorite song.

[@billhallsongs]

That is such a beautiful version Alan.One of the nicest I have heard. Gord's greatest love song I think. Sad as it may be.

[@donnagilligan2905]

Beautifully done Alan. Thank you.

[@RussellWatson777]

Hats off to you Alan, the rendering is sublime, just excellent, ~:-)

[@jakehill7667]

Alan, a beautiful version of a favorite of mine, next to Song for a winter night. Thank you for sharing it. kfk

[@PaulSmithMusicMD]

Alan... This is one of my all time favorite songs and this video is by far the best cover I've seen of it. It's such a beautiful song and you did such a beautiful job with it. In Gordon Lightfoots original version the wonderful guitar work is all covered up by the string instruments and filler but not so in this simple but very appealing version. So very nice! My hat is off to you Alan. Thank you!

[@lockedin60]

Alan you understand the Canadian Minstrel. Thank You

[@asliruf]

I am one of Alan's pupils and that is real guitar playin and singing

[@BigMamaDaveX]

😎 You're lucky to be able to have such a great teacher! 👍 I'd have a nine-hour flight to and from my lessons... 😏😉

[@backyardadvocate9377]

[@carpenter33]

[@7761864]

[@rickrodrigues2219]

Lovely rendition of this Lightfoot classic. Great guitar tone...what model is it...anyone?

[@edtaylor7318]

very nice what tuneing is he useing

[@alankenworthy9722]

Normal tuning with capo on the first fret.

[@alankenworthy9722]

The dropped A on the Ama7 is very resonant in his version.

[@hillwalker8741]

if you want a definition of poetry - look no further

[@hunterharrell7491]

This dude even looks like Gordon

[@BigMamaDaveX]

...when Gordon was younger, perhaps. 😏

[@waynesanchez6504]

Just turned a lovely, 20-somerhing onto Gordo. She's going to look him up!

[@waynesanchez6504]

FANTASTIC.....the very way Gordo should have performed.
