THE BOXER-PAUL SIMON-MIKE SINATRA COVER

[@palparknj]

You're the only guy that can take a Simon & Garfunkel classic and purify it. Absolutely beautiful, Mike!

[@grahamcox662]

Part of the wonder of the internet is that every now and again, you discover a great talent you never new existed.I discovered Phil ocha a while back.This guy has impeccable taste in the songs he covers. He has made some of the best covers I've ever heard. Why he is not more well known is a puzzle to me.

[@HanahKowalska-gu5tw]

Super.To jeden z ulubionych moich utworów 😘

[@captainbuck5969]

I have been playing guitar since 1977. This guy is good!

[@HempsteadGaz]

Had a "Boxer covers evening on KZbin. Have seen simply dozens tonight. Mike, yours is quite simply as good as it comes. Nothing is better. Truly flawless.

[@songmansinatra120]

Gary Peace thanks very much Gary!

[@johnivanp]

Mike is awesome never heard anything I don’t like from him.

[@karongoodine3288]

I'm not one who is usally okay with others doing the original from the popular musian i adore. You are so awesome. Thank you 💓

[@albertm3540]

Very well said Gary... Love this cover

[@WhenYouKnowNothingMatters]

I love you're voice aaaaaa please keep singing 🥺💕

[@songmansinatra120]

Thanks! Will do

[@eternalvinepress]

The Boxer is one of the most difficult songs to do well as it sounds so simple yet so complicated! Mike, very well done, thanks!

[@songmansinatra120]

thanks very much! one of my favorite songs...

[@goesastawan4969]

Man... your video makes my mom and my nieces cry.. Your voice bridges two different generation.

[@songmansinatra120]

hope thats a good thing lol...

[@spinks31]

Mike, The more I watch your offerings, the more I realise you do these songs better than the original artists. This is a one stop music fest for me. Your choice of covers is also impeccable - for a 76 yo who has lived through the eras of great melodies. Your playing and singing are exquisite listening for an old folky like me. All the best. You are a gem.

[@songmansinatra120]

Thanks! Much appreciated

[@saharatwibulpakdi]

The best cover version of this song I've ever listened on KZbin so far.

[@songmansinatra120]

In addition to singing well and playing you have the same English-speaking tastes as me: Bee Gees, Simon and Garfunkel, The Beatles, Elton John. I just love it. It's really professional level.

Great version of this song Mike.

[@songmansinatra120]

thanks very much John!

[@shelaghfranke3106]

Phenomenal !! This is one of the greatest songs ever, in my opinion, and your cover is the most brilliant I have ever heard. Oh Wow and your voice is superb, so beautiful. There was a verse I have never heard here though, but oh so good. Amazing Mr.Songman 🤩👏👏👏👏

[@songmansinatra120]

thanks very much! Paul added that verse years later.....

[@shelaghfranke3106]

@@songmansinatra120 Oh, thank you, lovely words 😊

[@PeterWinnett]

What a FAB version this is, well done & thanks for posting...Regards, Pete

[@arieyelen8040]

This is wonderful Mike. Listened to a number of your covers and find them to be both beautiful and heartfelt.

[@songmansinatra120]

thanks Arie!

[@HempsteadGaz]

I think you underestimate just how talented you are Mike. That is stunning -I have never heard a better cover version of the Boxer. Out of interest, you have a talented rival call Mike Masse (and Jeff Hall) who hail from Salt Lake City - what a show they and you could put on.

[@allan1951]

Excellant cover, well done Mike.

[@songmansinatra120]

thanks Allan! much appreciated.

[@miltonhowe2556]

This is a brilliant, meticulous rendition. Well done.

[@kajwilhelm]

[@songmansinatra120]

thanks Kaj!

[@Thamac15]

Best rendition of this song. Better than the original!

[@battlehrfred]

Damn Man, you are definitely an easy Man to listen too and a great smooth voice,graceful singer and player. I keep coming back and decided, for some reason and was "forced" to play my hohner Key of C along with you. Excellent melody and tune. KEEP up the great singing and playing Sir. 100--100 SWEEEEET

[@songmansinatra120]

Thanks very much!

[@JagdishRao]

Mike...you're unbelievable ! Really remarkable singing and guitar work....just fantastic... Jagdish

[@HempsteadGaz]

A flawless rendition, Mike. Your soaring vocals, pitch perfect harmonies and beautiful picking are perfect for one of the finest ever folk songs. Great job.

[@Robnord1]

What an amazing musician you are! This was right up there with the original in every respect. I got little 'this is special' chills while listening. Very rare for me, especially on a S&G cover. If you ever venture out to play in Seattle, please announce on your YT channel because it would be a must see for me.

[@songmansinatra120]

Thanks Rob! Much appreciated.
