All of the special things about you
I feel I should at least mention Bryan Ferry's version, which is my favourite (runs & hides). I don't know why the song has been covered so often. I'm a Dylan fanatic & although I like it, it is hardly up there with his best work. Perhaps because it's a fairly straightforward lyric, unlike many of Dylan's love songs, that people want to sing it.
FP - You can come out from your hiding place. You are, obviously, entitled to your opinion, but I'm personally not that fond of Bryan Ferry's voice. I think there are certainly some other decent versions of the song - Garth Brooks, Ed Sheeran, Kelly Clarkson, and Adele are a few that come to my mind. However, I believe one reason the song is so popular is because of its pure, simplistic beauty and Timothy's voice embodies all of those emotive qualities so well, which is why his version is so flawless. In addition, I think his arrangement captures the essence of the song perfectly as well. JMHO

Please don't get me wrong - Tim's version of the song is beautiful. I haven't heard the other versions you mention.
Fear not Fp I'm not going to be mad about you liking Ferry's version better, I'm not familiar with it myself so I can't say if it's bad or good, anyway Tim's is certainly the sweetest version, Dylan's just has that something special that makes it a bit more meaningful for me, He's old and weary and still sweet
I found this video of Timothy performing in Austin (Tx) - my old stomping ground- back in 2012! So there's hope yet he'll have some future tour dates in this area.
I must say, Timothy looks great in his brown silky shirt. Here's "I Can't Tell You Why/Love Will Keep Us Alive":

I searched through the thread and found one prior link to this New Breed video; it had expired. Long-time devoted Timothy fans are probably familiar with this, but it's new to me and he looks so young and cute here, I just have to post. Here's "Green-eyed Woman."

Here's Tim singing Tequila Sunrise, or 2:15 of it to be precise, in January. If only he could provide the background harmony too

Peaceful Easy Feeling tribute for Glenn. But, IMHO, it's also notable for the live version of What Should I Do. Really like this version. I feel a bit of regret for having voted for it on the survivor game now.

Any chance that Tim will release a live DVD of the current tour?
