    • This is actually a cover song of a cover song. It was originally written and recorded by John Hartford. It became a hit when Glen Campbell covered the song in a faster tempo and it won four 1968 Grammy Awards. Hartford won for "Best Folk Performance" and "Best Country & Western Song-Songwriter". Campbell won "Best Country & Western Solo Vocal Performance-Male" and "Best Country & Western Recording".

      Campbell used "Gentle on My Mind" as the theme to his television variety show, "The Glen Campbell Goodtime Hour" between 1969 and 1972.

      Altogether it has been recorded by over 300 different artists, though Campbell's version remains the most well known.

        I made it to 1:17 before I bailed. I am sure Brandy is fine girl, her song not so much.
        Nope, tried 3 songs, way to bad 80's for me.

        Not that they are bad musicians, just don't like there song selections. I was kind of disappointed, as I wanted to like them.

          • Not my favorite song, but this is just so well done with so many great musicians.

                    • What do you get when you combine Billy Idol with George Michael? This guy, who also does a pretty good cover of Back to Black. But, he sounds nothing like Amy.

Not the most technically perfect voice, but I like the way she hits the notes, especially in the opening before the instruments and other vocalist comes in.

                              • She's brilliant. The male vocalist....not so much. She's so good, though, that it still makes for a very good cover.
