It's a good cover version.
Richie has came and left twice. He left them like 15 years ago, for a solo career, and they replaced him with some guy named Cody(who was with them for probably a decade). Then Richie decided he wanted to come back, about 5 years ago? It didn't last long(maybe 2 years) until he wanted to leave AGAIN. Then they replaced him with Drew- the singer in the video here).When Michael bought my amp, I said, "so wtf is wrong with Richie? Is he crazy?" He just said, "Richie can't make up his mind on what he wants to do". He's now with The Frontmen of Country. The singer from Restless Heart, and the singer from Little Texas, and Richie. They go out and sing their 30 top ten hits(collectively). Sometimes as just a trio, sometimes with a band. The guy who put Frontmen together promised him 1M/ year. Michael said that there's no way they can make that. I agree.
