👏 Well said. Many argue Mariah's version was best but one commentor said it best; Mariah puts her whole voice into it. Harry, his whole heart. He just set the bar so ridiculously high that no one but him can touch it, or has to date. It was a cover for him but he made it his own.

Legend. He did the main track in one take and then did the back up because no one can sing like Harry Nilsson.

Word of advice: go past Nilsson Schmilsson and Son of Schmilsson. Not many people know how much he actually accomplished in his singing career, besides just the hits. He has a very versatile and well put-together discography that a lot of people have missed. Nice video!

GREETINGS EARTH MAN: I think I saw on the Harry Nilsson documentary here on KZbin that he was a friend of the Beatles who considered his to be one of the best if not the best male voice in contemporary music. Of course, they were drinking buddies. From what I understand he did not perform publically. I thought your reaction was dope.

Watch "Who is Harry Nilsson (And Why Is Everybody Talkin' About Him?)!!!! His voice and genius is amazing. His history is amazing. When you said there's something almost unsettling when he goes for those high notes, reminds me of something percussionist Ray Cooper said (I'm paraphrasing) --- "It's like he's a trapeze artist and you're cringing a bit because you're just not sure he's going to make it to that high note." I get that feeling every time I listen to the song.

Wow! Your review of this song was fire! So succinct and spot on. If all that, which was fantastically accurate, spilled out in one take immediately after hearing this amazing song... dude, you have serious talent yourself.

Excellent commentary. A bit clinical but, I think that sets you apart from the other reactors, which I like. A much more intelligent & interesting take than I've heard from the others. Thank you kindly,

This song was I believe written by Bad Finger the group or for them. However most people have heard the Mariah Carey version which cannot hold a candle to this version by Harry Nilsson. You feel every emotion in his rendition whereas Mariah Carey's rendition is just too shrill.
