    @kristarella — Thanks!! I can’t believe I only recently dis­cov­ered this song. It’s awesome.

    Now that I have a fast and reli­able inter­net con­nec­tion I have taken the oppor­tu­nity to load this won­der­ful cover. I am quite glad that you didn’t try to imi­tate Bryan Adams because you have more than enough tal­ent and charisma to make it your own. I am still shocked at how great your voice is, because I haven’t been able to hear it due to the inter­net con­nec­tion. Thank you for tak­ing the time to record this won­der­ful song.

    Thanks for the super com­ments; they’re awesome.

    I’ll be record­ing a few more cov­ers just for fun soon. If you have any requests, let me know! I’m look­ing for clas­sic rock songs at the moment.

    Okay, here are some requests to give you some­thing to play with, some of which aren’t strictly clas­sic rock but are great songs nonethe­less due to the lyri­cal components:

    For­ever Autumn from The War of the Worlds
    Cal­i­for­nia Dream­ing by Mom­mas and the Pop­pas
    Against the Wind by Bob Seger
    You’ll Accomp’ny Me by Bob Seger
    I’m Not in Love by 10CC
    Golden Haired Girl by Amer­ica
    Tin Man by Amer­ica
    Shadow on the Wall by Mike Old­field (Crises)
    Water­col­ors in the Rain by Rox­ette (Joyride)
    Drive by The Cars (The Great­est Hits)
    Two Steps Behind by Def Lep­pard (Vault: 1980–1995)

    I’ll post some more sug­ges­tions after I do some more research.

    @D L Owens — Thanks for the list. I’ll go through all the songs and pick out any that I like. :)

    @Ryan — Thanks for the cool com­ment Ryan. I try… I try wuahahahaha.

    Not to diss Bryan, but I think I like this ver­sion better!

    For some good 60’s rock lis­ten­ing, try iTunesing Blue Shoes. The group, not the song. There isn’t much out there on them, and I con­tacted the record com­pany for info, and appar­ently the only CD of them avail­able, which is on iTunes, is pretty much all of their songs. But their stuff is awe­some! And I’m guess­ing at the 60’s part, the band is pretty much a ghost.

    @Anna A. — What a very nice thing to say Anna… but the truth is, noth­ing will ever, ever be as good as the orig­i­nal. That’s what I think any­way unless any­one out there can point me any exam­ples. (Under the assump­tion of course that a decent effort was placed into the orig­i­nal in the first instance.)

    I’ll def­i­nitely check out Blue Shoes. I’m impressed that you actu­ally con­tacted the record label for infor­ma­tion on the band! Now THAT is fan dedication.

    I was watch­ing the first 10 sec­onds of the video and I thought you’ll be singing a really annoy­ing ver­sion of Heaven.

    BUT hey I was wrong! :D . Not bad at all! You have a nice voice.

    @Oridusartic — Annoy­ing ver­sion of Heaven hey?

    Good to hear that you like it. Two enthu­si­as­tic thumbs up for the kudos.

    Voice of an angel. It’s got charisma. Keep up the good work!

    @Nat — Thanks Nat. Angel eh? If you mean an angel hell bent on being the sole cause of inter­nal brain hem­or­rhage, then I’m totally down with that.

    Viva implo­sion!

    I like your voice.
    I think you are a singer, aren’t you?
    Sorry for offense, if you’re already a star, but if not,
    you are more than pro­fes­sional, you are truly awesome.

    @James Lai — Thanks for the com­ment James. I am a “singer”… mean­ing I like to sing when I’m in the shower. Great to hear that you like the sound though and that it hasn’t caused your head to inter­nally com­bust yet.

    @Nancy — The site is a work in progress but I think it’s get­ting a lot more per­son­able as I tweak it more and more. Maybe it is time for a new design…

    Truly amaz­ing ren­di­tion of the song. I hope you don’t mind me putting it on my ipod. It seems it’s also got­ten a lot of atten­tion on youtube — Over 50k hits. Well done Kym!
