Great to hear this beautiful interpretation of one of the best love songs ever written .. it’s just that most of the world doesn’t know that yet. 😀 Obscure perhaps because you can’t exactly rattle it off with a guitar 🎸 three chords .. and a singer who’s not up to the task.

[@gazzaraplaysgenesis]

Thanks a lot! You're right this is not the average simple ballad and vocal interpretation adds a lot! Cheers! Please check www.gazzaraplaysgenesis.com and francescogazzara.bandcamp.com for latest Genesis related releases. Cheers!

Excellent cover. It ain't easy to follow the steps of the great Hackett and the miracolous voice of Ms. Crawford but you'd accomplished it with dignity and beauty. Congratulations!

This is a Steve Hackett song from his second solo album Please Don’t Touch, released just after he left the band. He heard Randy Crawford one evening and invited her to sing on the album. Apparently, Tony Banks said he wanted this song on the next Genesis album. Their loss though Steve never offers it to “the committee!”. A lot of Steve’s material is covered by so many different artists as he has written so many fantastic pieces in so many styles. Lily has a fabulous voice and does a great job. The others also give a great performance.

[@gazzaraplaysgenesis]

Thanks a lot Brian! Totally agree on Steve's enormous and consistent repertoire...

THANK YOU! Your version of this under-appreciated master-piece made we weep! It sounds especially lovely with piano- the lovely harmonic progressions unfold so organically! Steve is a Mother-Fucker of a composer! And you all did a tremendous honor to the song!

Thanks a lot! Please check www.gazzaraplaysgenesis.com for latest releases. Cheers!

[@mauromaneglia969]

Il brano è impegnativo quindi a parte due incertezze non pisso che apprezzare questa versione. Altro invece è l attribuzione a Genesis ciò che non è Genesis ma di Steve Hackett. Che pur essendo stato Genesis questo è interamente come sempre opera sua! Mi sembrava doveroso citarlo. Grazie per questo video.! Mauro da Collegno

[@gazzaraplaysgenesis]

Grazie Mauro, certamente "Hoping Love Will Last" è un brano di Steve Hackett, come è riportato nella descrizione sotto il titolo ("Genesis Acoustic give a live rendition of a Steve Hackett classic originally sung by Randy Crawford"). Genesis Acoustic era solo il nome dello spettacolo del 2012 dedicato a versioni acustiche di alcuni classici di Genesis e dei suoi solisti.

Secondo me è un po' lenta di ritmo e il flauto è un po' 'timido'. La timbrica della voce è molto molto bella

@@gazzaraplaysgenesis ho ascoltato, vedo che avete velocizzato, non mi piace la sezione ritmica, troppo qualunquistica che spoetizza la canzone e la rende normale. preferisco questa versione kzbin.info/www/bejne/h5bNeaudg914d6M

[@gazzaraplaysgenesis]

@@stefanomolteni8069 I gusti si rispettano ci mancherebbe, in primi i tuoi. Certo a proposito di "spoetizzare" e pensando all'interpretazione vocale originale di Randy Crawford, nell'esempio che hai citato manca proprio quel tipo di naturalezza soul, almeno che non la si fraintenda come "normale". Grazie comunque per i tuoi commenti.

[@stefanomolteni8069]

@@gazzaraplaysgenesis hai detto bene. D'altronde non ha la voce di Randy e, come già detto, mi piace molto la timbrica della vostra cantante, Mi riferivo solo all'arrangiamento, poi, per carità, ognuno ha la sua sensibilità e il suo sentire. È un pezzo che, secondo me, musicalmente 'accompagna' la voce e non dovrebbe mai farla finire in secondo piano. E tutto questo senza perdere in 'classe'. Non mi piace la batteria, soprattutto alla fine e le tastiere tendono a diventare noiose. Mio personalissimo e insignificante parere. Tanta stima a voi per l'apprezzamento che avete di questa canzone fino a sentire l'esigenza di volerla reinterpretare più volte.
