Lightfoot's lyrics hold a standard of depth and resonance that Eric definitely strives to carry into this generation, it's absolutely fitting that he would pull out a cover of this song. Much respect, for much respect.

Eric church is as close as we gone get to a Travis tritt of 2021... He is just so raw and authentic. And he can SING anything!!!! I remember riding around in my dad's old silvarada and listening to this in his A track

Toby Keith did a cover of it in 2010 and it was on his album "bullets in the gun" ...years before Eric performed this onstage.

Love the approach, hate the execution... This seemed as though Eric was joking around, which is cool, but did not do the song any justice... Plus his voice is just not that dynamic, in fact it is really stagnant. Not impressed by the version, but cool he played it and big props to his band.

Glad to know I’m not the only who thought he wrecked this classic. He was off key most of the song. Also detected auto tune.
