"Willis Earl Beal"


  

          

This guy has "it". I don't know what "it" is but the soul he breathes into these songs is undeniable.

I was blown away by this performance. Dude flipped the lyrics and made the song way more poetic and soulful than the original. I still enjoy both versions but damn, this was good.

A description from the video uploader:

"Willis Earl Beal performs 'Evening's Kiss' live at a sold out Trof Fallowfield in Manchester for Now Wave. This was Willis Earl Beal's debut Manchester show and only his 4th ever live performance. "
