my comments..not posting and don't know why.If ANYONE sees,especially Mr.McCatney: I'm not particularly fond of the "Irish Tenor Sound." However.... have been surfing the net ALL DAY for a version of this to find something suitable to send to some friends.As a former pro opera/classical singer...and now Conductor/ voice teacher,I am compelled to say the following:THIS.Ultra wonderful! voice and piano, plain and simple.Unlike all of the bombastic"yelling" I've heard, this is treated truly in the manner of an "art song." The subtleties,nuances,expression,breath control,tonal placement.Just wonderful and Bravo! A grand thumbs up and my thanks for sharing this.

I'm at loss of words of how you are not recognized as the genuine singer you truly are. No wiki-entry, Nothing big via google.. Market yourself Mr McCartney. You have the right to claim your place among the best. It's been a long time I heard such a wonderful voice; It nearly seems as if you would be doing playback. Precision like an instrument, feeling and sensitivity like the world's greatest singers. I wish you all the best. This comes from somebody who considers himself a fairly good singer :)
