Voice that just doesn’t quit and one you never forget

[@jcg157]

This is an excellent video of a very amazing performer. Yes, those of you who are Canadian have every right to be very proud. I have been a fan of Burton Cummings for a very long time, and there is no equal to his amazing talent.

[@johnzeman7862]

As a US resident This should have charted higher than 37 In 1981 This performance is outstanding

[@judirogers3352]

15 people gave this a thumbs down??? good god why???! this is an amazing video. good sound, good close ups, good band. I can't watch this enough! love you burton

One after another the hits just keep coming, from the heart of this magician of music. The talent of such a performer will continue to bring songs to the world of man though his sensational sound.

I’ve listen to him since I was 15. I’ve never gotten to see him live. I would give my right arm to do that.

[@kennymcdaniel9763]

Has the purest voice of any singer

[@cynthiagabel2259]

I could listen to him all day & night. I used to have the biggest crush on him when I was a teenager & the Guess Who were big! His talent is unmatched!

Top forty hit from the fall of 1981-Great song!

Hello Barbara, how're you doing, I hope you are doing fine. I'm David from Houston, Texas. Where are you from? You seems like a real Country girl😊🌹

[@annobime1]

My fave Burton Cummings tune... what a great voice, and musicality in this!

[@charlesbergman5794]

Burton Cummngs is an unequaled talent, musician/writer. He doesn't have a bad song. One artist that I could listen to everyday, every song. And so I am.

[@ayotteable]

Cummings&Peterson on the same stage.Nothing better than that.

[@connieestes3044]

I cry every time I hear this song. First time I heard it I was on a date with my husband. 49 years later, we're still together and this song has even more meaning now.

[@sanibelscreamer]

[@MrPeteparas]

The Good LORD above sure did bless you Burton with such a wonderful gifting to write and sing songs that really powerfully touch the heart. I appreciate your music and sincerely pray on your behalf that indeed the wondrous impactful truth comprised in these lyrics ' you saved my soul you came nd brought me out of the night time ''would be a joyous eternal testimony of how God's amazing unveiling of Himself caused you experiencing

[@SPAZZOBOXER]

Outstanding clip from the early days of "Evening at the Improv" when Musical Artists [Bob Seger,Little Richard,Burton Cummings] often hosted the show & performed around the standup comics. This is an outstanding "Live" rendition of this moving original, sung with typical B.Cummings feeling & conviction. The "Voice" reaches down into his diaphragm and projecting pure resonant vocal power; touches everyone in the room along with his piano technique,captivating lyrics & band.

[@rpday]

i had the chance to see Burton Cummings play this song at an impromptu session (unannounced) in a park in Calgary Alberta Canada. Burton sat at a piano in the park and played most of his songs for his fans

[@lumbeegirl8]

Nothing Burton does is ever inferior ! Just listen to that voice and look into those eyes !

[@tjerwin1]

Burton Cummings is one of the best vocalists in music history as far as I am concerned. He has made a permanent spot in music history with his voice and talent. This is one of my all time favorites from him.

[@bobdozer5407]

Thanks for your Music Burton.

[@lumbeegirl8]

Love this song. And I love Burton Cummings. He is one of the best voices in rock !

[@tjjay2438]

Masterpiece 👍👍🇨🇦

[@TheJennifer9876]

One great singer and song writer! ... Have always liked Burton Cummings!!

[@sonnysimms5683]

+Jennifer Brickford Burton Cummings and Edward Bear are my favorite Canadian Singers. Burton could be one of the top ten in my estimation.

[@krishnarajballie6294]

+Sonny Simms Edward Bear is not a singer but a band. The singer in Edward Bear was Larry Evoy.

[@WoWImaFan]

This was the first time that I ever heard Burton Cumming sing. Wow, I was 8 and totally fell in love with him and his music.

[@lorraineross5337]

Remembering Burton Cummins songs at the ex, with my long distance friend Rhonda ,, hope yoyr doing ok we miss you alot.

I've had an opportunity to see him twice with the Guess Who (once not long after Randy left the band and once with Randy during a reunion tour) and have seen him solo three times - an amazing singer and performer - puts on a great concert

I heard this on the radio so many times...like a lazy fool, finally sat back and listened to the lyrics...damn! Way to go Burton, love the song. Yeah, they even have a venue in Winnipeg on Smith ( I think) The Burton Cummings Theatre.

[@bobby7771117]

This man did have great pipes!! They didn't need American Idol back in those days to find great talent with that one in 7 billion voice!!!!!! BobbyK

[@B52sguy]

Still, after almost 30 years, one of the very best love/ballad numbers ever produced, written, and sung. Just beautifull! And if Sonia, with Darcy and Sky should read this, get in touch, because no matter what, this is our wedding song. JF
