Out-standing rendition..... made me cry..... I just love singers you can believe in as you listen. They invite you into their private Kingdom and you are invited to participate by listening.... by believing in them so much they can sing songs of profound sorrow and grief and not cry..... and they are not being professional or heard-hearted at all ...... it's just that they gain fragile strength from US the listeners. Just loved it. Thanks for posting it. God bless the broken hearted. alex
being a huge Randy Newman fan i was thinking " this could be really bad, or really good" , not knowing who Curtis Stiger is. he certainly did it justice, v v nice
Thanks for posting this great footage. Looking forward to seeing Curtis and his band perform at The Queens Theatre, Barnstaple this Sunday. Saw them Live two years ago and they were Amazingly talented.
