I think we would all be sad without your singing each week too Del. We’re glad you found your voice again!

[@DelGriffiths]

What a lovely comment, Andrew - thanks so much! :-)

Harold and Maude is at the top of my all-time favorite movies. A big part of that is the soundtrack. And a big part of the soundtrack is this song. Great job, Del. That was lovely.

[@DelGriffiths]

Thanks, Christopher - much appreciated! Good to hear from you - hope you’re doing well? :-)

[@haberkow]

I've always loved this song, and really enjoyed your performance Del.

[@DelGriffiths]

Thanks so much! :-)

[@bobjking]

As Joo said, there's a real lightness to your performance here. What a great song! It's always an absolute pleasure to hear you sing out, Del!

[@DelGriffiths]

You’re very kind, Bob - thanks so much! :-)

Just rewatched Harold and Maude a couple weeks ago! Love this one. Nice bring, Del!

[@DelGriffiths]

Thanks, matey! I watched H&M about 20 years ago - not sure I’m ready to watch it again just yet! :-)) But what a soundtrack! :-)

The world was a poorer place during your silent weeks, Del. This is a wonderful choice, thanks for bringing it! And boy howdy do I know the heartsick feeling of being unable to sing. I'm sure I delayed my recovery by trying to sing sooner than I should have. My mental health might rely a bit too much on whatever neurotransmitters get let down by singing my heart out.

[@DelGriffiths]

What a lovely comment - thank you so much, Marin - you’re very kind! I’m sure my voice isn’t quite back to its full potential, but at one point I feared it wouldn’t recover at all, so I’m hugely relieved. And, thankfully, you’re sounding as good as ever now! :-)

[@piekia]

Very lovely! I feel as if you feel for the song too because there is a lightness in you as you sing this, which is very nice! 🧡

[@DelGriffiths]

Thank you, Joo - yes, I really enjoyed this one! :-)

[@Bystander929]

You know I love Cat Stevens don’t you ?

[@DelGriffiths]

I had kinda picked that up over the years! ;-) Cheers, Graham! :-)

[@jtsteam]

What a joyful song! Good stuff.

[@DelGriffiths]

Thanks Edwin - uncharacteristically joyful for one of my song choices, don’t you think? :-))

[@jtsteam]

@@DelGriffiths I hadn't even noticed! But I suppose it is always good to have some variety, indeed :).

[@jp888then]

Super cover. Your voice suits this well.

[@DelGriffiths]

Thanks, matey! :-)

[@Renaissance-Man-Ukulele]

Well done, Del

[@DelGriffiths]

Thanks so much, RM! :-)
