This song is so beautiful. I can't say it enough...absolutely gorgeous. If God ever wrote a song, this is what it would sound like. I know it's lame of me to say that, but it's true. Whenever you're in horrible shape over a relationship of any kind...just listen to this song. It will calm you down and help you through it. Just another wonderful thing about music...that it can effect you so deeply. I will run after you...

But the SSMVGD version is much much better than the BLD one

Really? I wouldn't know. I don't have anything to trade for SSMVGD. I will get it one day...oh yes I will...YOU JUST WAIT AND SEE!
SSMVGD, I will run after you.

Croton, email me, I'll get 'ya set up. I still have it set up from giving it to a few others. Anyone else interested, please just email me starting Friday afternoon, I'll try to help you out as soon as this tribute's done.

The SSMVGD version is much more simply done, and I think that's what makes it more beautiful. I like the BLD one okay, but it's overdone and too long.

I see God in more of the early Lionel Richie songwriting mold. Besides, I think He's more of a "Jesus Is Right" dude anyway. |

I love this one too, but it's too short...
This is one of the songs of which I always can remember the lyrics, that's why it's almost always the first song I play on my guitar. (Sometimes it's How you went so far)

This song is beautiful, much the reason why I covered it for the tribute (have you heard my version yet?). I agree with all of the above; the SSMVGD version is far superior...much more emotional, much more build-up...much better.

This is great, but I actually wound up liking the BLD version better, after a long time liking the SSMVGD version better. Frank's vocals are - dare I say it? Perfect on the BLD version.

I love this song. I think it is Frank's most romantic song. If I ever get married, I will play this at my wedding. It's so lovely. |

Well, to each their own, as they say. I love Speedy Marie too but this song is more romantic *in my opinion*. |

I ADORE this song.
To the extent that when I can's sleep I slap this song into repeat and drift away on happy breeze...
When I met Rich Gilbert those many times I asked if the boys would play it and I'm sorta bummed I'm still waiting to hear it live...

This song (as well as many others) helped me through a pretty unfortunate break up, And it also brought me to the edge a couple of times.
I'm the crushaaa, king of the ring. |
