Someone told me he liked Crazy Love by Van Morrison

I won't tell you where this guy lives or you might be scandalized ;-). But he liked my posting of Have I told you lately that I love you and wrote me, mentioning a few other great Van Morrison songs.

Crazy love was one of them. But I couldn't find a Van Morrison version, but I found Aaron Neville's. I love Aaron Neville and this is sweet.



Then I found this duet of Aaron Neville with Linda Ronstadt from 1989. I like the way she does not try to sing like a black woman but is herself. Yet they blend beautifully.



Which reminds me of my favorite version of endless love by the wonderful late Luther Vandross and Mariah Carey. I love how they sing to each other like real lovers. Or Luther did anyway. Man oh man, could he put himself into a song. Always did covers better than the original singers.



I love the sheer joy of their singing together, the perfection, the virtuosity. Beautiful.

Here's another favorite Luther Vandross. He really works hard on stage.
