I really like his solo version of this song but this duet with Leona Lewis is through the roof, AWESOME!!!!!!!

Easily my favorite Dixie Chicks song, because I love to be moved and this is such a heart wrenching song that all too many people have experienced when sending their loved ones off to war

 

[Buzzyboy]

A song that always moved me was the song "Billy & Sue by B.J. Thomas .... A tragic Dear John song from the mid 60's that I can't bring here because I'm a little computer illiterate .... Hopefully someone else can post it

Runaway was a #1 hit for Del Shannon in 1961
“As I walk along I wonder what went wrong
With our love, a love that was so strong”

Agreed. Two Britain's Got Talent winners. I could listen to it over and over.

Nice choice. Haven't heard this song in a long time.

"Tears on My Pillow" before My Pillow became controversial.

Roy Orbison and a few friends. Watch when Bruce Springsteen just stops and stares at Roy just slaying the vocals. One of the best shows ever!

I've always loved Bonnie Raitt's cover:

Bonnie Raitt ~ Runaway

This stellar cover of the Del Shannon classic is from her 1977 LP, "Sweet Forgiveness"...featuring the late great Norton Buffalo on harp.
