Literally, one of the greatest songs of all time. Mick Hucknall's voice, blue eyed soul at its' finest.

You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton

This song is probably the only song that everyone in my family, likes.

A lot of memories attached to it - my dad used to play it alot when we were kids.
