Very nice - I like!...
They sure did make a good job of that song.
I still prefer the original though.
Anyone for Tony Christie?

I think the only way he let himself down was to star in so many rubbish films.
Jailhouse Rock wasn't one of them!
And Loving You was pretty good as well!

Forever In Blue Jeans.
Ooooh I love that man.
Forever in Blue Jeans
Sweet Caroline
Love on the Rocks
Cracklin' Rose
Song Sung Blue
Shilo
And so on . . . .
Oh yeah, and the Tony Christie "Way to Amorillo" was always a good foot stomping one, as has been said already.
I much prefer the music from that era than most of todays songs. Leona Lewis did some good songs but when she buggered off to America I think she lost a lot of her fans here. Pity.
It's probably a sign of old age when you expect to hear the words of songs, but I find so many modern songs I can't decipher what the 'eck they're singing about, so that spoils it for me, because I'm a sucker for nice words.

The songs of those eras could be heard clearly, and the overall sound quality was better than today.
Today's music is mostly synthesized rubbish with hardly a real musician to be heard.
