It seems odd to me that you post this now. Jeff Healey, a Toronto musician died yesterday, and on the radio this morning I heard this song -- Healey's cover version -- for the first time in ages and ages. Spooky.

I am sorry for your community's loss. I had never heard this particular song until this movie came out. it makes me want to seek out every version every interpretation.

"I look at the world and I notice that it's turning while my guitar gently weeps - with every mistake we must surely be learning, still my guitar gently weeps"

I had not heard that! I was a Jeff Healey fan for years (and had a big crush on him). I'm sorry to hear he has died.

yeah - the original is the finest version it's true. I sat here last night on the net and watched prolly eight or nine different versions.

One of my favorites. This song is anthem of the pain of our lives.

Saw the movie recently and fell in love with all of it.

Dear Prudence hit strongly for me.

OMG

Thank you for sharing this. I saw the previews for this movie and the music played during the preview alone had me wanting to see this movie. Now I can't wait.

It is a haunting song.

Again, thank you for sharing this.
