It’s reminds me of the first time Gilbert O’Sullivan walked on to the stage and the rest is history …right time right place

I agree w Sharon. The music industry is not always about the talent of the artists and it seems more and more it is about connections. This was a flawless and brilliant performance. Way to go Eli...

Watching your performance on TV all those years ago, it connected with something deep in me... back then I never dared to dream of singing and playing the piano in front of people, but maybe I secretly always wanted to. And now sometimes I do. Thank you for the inspiration and the reminder of how far I've come. Journey well.

Why did I come back to this? It’s not saved. He pops up in my mind every once in awhile over the years. There’s gotta be a reason. Cause I’m not the only one.
@ednaselm3 ай бұрын
There may be a reason....I just copied this from a comment above, a year ago: "As of 2022, he's been struggling with some health issues and has been working with doctors to figure things out. He still performs on facebook every week (he had to step back from in person appearances). His passion is just as present now as it was then." He had a fund raiser and I hope he's doing better...Take Care
