Just A Thought

          Got a strange feeling in the past few days that something's about to happen in my life. Can't quite put my finger on it but my gut is telling me that. Probably, it's the adjustments my body and mind making to my return to school.

Sweet Baby (song)

         

This version is different from the one everyone is familiar with. He sang it with just a piano and did away with the original full-orchestral arrangement. Here the song became more intimate and touching. It made me cry when I first heard it.
