Note to self: This is tough song to sing.----I just spent the last hour playing this song on my instrument and singing it. Not easy.Glen Campbell just makes it sound so damned easy!

It's usually good to hear the writer perform his or her own material. I have to admit that the vocals here are embarrassing: he simply does not have the voice for this material.The last 7-8 measures of this performance sound like Laura Nyro's piano playing. Other piano parts here sound like his song MacArthur Park -- perhaps too schmaltzy compared to the utter finesse of the vocals & arrangement of the Glen Campbell version.Still, one of the greatest songs written in popular music.

When you take a great Jimmy Webb song and puts Glen Campbells' great voice to it, the result is a masterpiece. While Glen can outsing Jimmy any day, Webb still does a nice job with this great song that he wrote..

Thanks for the post, miles, negative commentary & all. Have you ever heard Burt Bacharach do "his" stuff? I think the composer should be cut some slack - he may have heard Glen, in this case, in his head as he wrote it.
