When Josh first sang this song I was blown away! I reached out to him and hired him to sing this song at my wedding for My Wife while she walked down the aisle. It was Awesome and he was a great down-to-earth guy. Best Bahamas wedding ever. Don't miss him sing hallelujah❤

So many tears shed over this version which will remain the best for me. 2024, I'm still listening to it. She leads me into the depths of love Josh Krajcick has such a captivating and gravelly voice. A better of the two and that is rare and wonderful. His voice tone is UNIQUE

Simply the best male vocalist i've ever heard , he has such soul , depth & range .I'm 52 , love all kinds of music & have listened to so so many artists over the 70s , 80s, 90s , 00s - Josh needs to tour the UK & let the British public hear live the worlds best male vocals !!

Man, I remember this like it was yesterday. I thought Josh got ripped off. But, he knew, as he stated, that he wasn't exactly the pop star look they wanted. When he sang this song, I cried, and I had no reason to cry....just a deep appreciation and acknowledgement of a gifted voice! I haven't watched this for a long time. But, funny enough I heard Roberta singing it on the elevator the other day, and within minutes pulled this vid up to hear it again.
