Fabulous! BOTH of these videos! There's NO one like Sam Cooke, but there's also a fantastic Taylor Hicks. Each incredible in their own way. I was around when Sam's You Send Me was a hit. He still sends people! Interesting note is that I read that Idol didn't really want Taylor to improvise and do his "stuff" so he did first parts of the songs straight most of the time but then half way through cut into his Taylorized versions which are always HOT!
Thank you for posting one of my favorite Taylor performances! You never know where Taylor will take you and it's always a great ride! Blues Historian you are the best!

I've enjoyed your posting Taylor's vids. Thanks so much. He's one of the few current artists that appreciates past greats. Ü
