Very nice. For some reason, I was denied a singing voice.
Don't feel like the Lone Ranger. We are in that larger category of "appreciators".

99% of the time I like the original singer of a song but sometimes a great cover comes along. This is one of those times when the cover is equal to or better than the original. Another great cover is of an Elvis song by UB40. I really like their version of Can't Help Falling In Love. If you haven't experienced that version, look it up on Utube -- the horns really make this version special.
That is beautiful - thank you for sharing.
Austin’s tenor is amazing! The Home Free a capella group, of which Austin is a member, is the best one out there IMO. Check out his rendition of “When a Man Loves a Woman” - He does Percy Sledge proud on that one.

Excellent. This is my favorite song.
Here's a link to the origin and history of Unchained Melody (at least until 2012!):

This is my number one song of all times. In 1957 it was the song I picked for the gal i wanted to marry. the song stayed , but she didn't.
He is good, but will never beat The Righteous Brothers.

Very, very good. But still, Bobby Hatfield is the king.
