Poignant Coldplay cover

Singing it perdy.

If we were snide, we’d say Willie Nelson has put on some weight and finally got a haircut since that pot bust. But we’re not gonna say that. We like this cover of Coldplay’s “Fix You” more than the original recording — mainly because this guy has courage and soul. In the YouTube comments section on the video, mudskipper27 says it concisely: “I have no idea why, but this made me cry! Probably because the song has a message we’d all like to hear from the grandpas we’ve lost.” For information and MP3 files, check out the Young @ Heart Chorus’ Web site.
