This version you have done has completely changed my outlook on life, I lost a very close friend in April at such a young age, this was played at her funeral with a sax and has inspired me to take up the saxophone and learn this song so that I can play it on her anniversary every year with my friends. I’ve always loved the sound of the sax and always wanted to play it and now I’m learning slowly as the sound just reminds me of my passed friend. Thank you man 💕

I do this thing with my dad, where we show each other every beautiful song we come across. I showed him this and he began crying. He is so blown away, thank you for putting this out there. This is so amazing and touching!

Neat cover. There's a guy who brings his sax to the gym and plays in the Zumba room when no one is there. I find it to be an intriguing instrument.

Thank you SO much Carol! Those are strong words and I truly appreciate them. I try my best to stick as close to the melody as possible. I often joke and say "...If I could sing I would be a really good singer!" LOL Guess I try to sing through my horn and be careful with the phrasing. Again, thanks so much!
