The Bee Gees did not make the original "Love is all around". That was the Troggs. I think you made that mistake because I picked 2 Bee Gees songs which I prefer the later version of though I like the Bee Gees & their version of the songs.

It's a matter of taste. I wasn't trying to put Elvis down. I'm just not a fan because he sung too loudly in my opinion though he was a brilliant singer. (Like I've mentioned before I have extremely sensitive hearing so anything too loud gives me earache.) I really like Willie Nelson. What we have to remember here is that although "Always on my mind" is a love song here it was sung by 2 different singers who sing 2 different genres of music. Elvis was the "King of Rock & Roll" so sung it like a Rock & Roll singer & Willie Nelson is a country singer so sung it country-style. I know different doesn't mean better & I mentioned that the songs were better in my opinion. As I'm not an Elvis fan & like Willie Nelson, Willie Nelson's version is forced to be better in my opinion. It's not that Elvis' version was over-ridden by Nelson's version but I liked it better.

I got it, thanks for the clarification. I agree now.

By "I disagree" I assume you mean "Boyzone sang better than Cat Stevens (true original)". Yet later you say that "Cat Stevens did put more into it". In which case I don;t understand your logic. The latter contradicts the former.
You have superimposed Boyzone on top of Cat Stevens to show that Boyzone is better. But you did not explain why it is so. The argument that you simply "prefer their voices" is purely subjective and not enough no convince someone like myself who is looking for an objective explanation.

EDIT: If by "I disagree" you mean "I prefer Boyzone's voices" then there is no discussion here. Everyone has the right to like something over something. I misunderstood you in this case, you can ignore the above.

When I said I disagreed I meant that although I like both versions & Cat Stephens put more emotion into the song I prefer Boyzone's voices. It's just a matter of opinion.

After what I said yesterday I made it look as if I didn't like or appreciate rock & roll but I do although I'm not an Elvis fan. I like rock & roll from other singers like the ones below.



1 who could have made lots more good songs if his life hadn't sadly been cut short by a plane crash. I like to imagine how brilliant he could have been.









Enjoy!

Very nice. Thank you very much for sharing.

Very nice. Thank you very much for sharing.

my pleasure Horsa,

you like Dylan and Johnny Cash ?

These famous 1969 duets have never seen an official release until recently. They've been heavily bootlegged in poor sound, over the years, and so for Bobster fans this is very happy time. The duets with Cash and the new Travelin Thru product, represent Bob's two country albums - John Wesley Harding and Nashville Skyline, probably his best ever vocal's work.

I do, Vince.

Is it just me or is that last song sung to this tune?
