This is absolutely beautiful. I am a die hard Buddy Holly fan and normally I don't like covers of his songs. This is an exception. I especially loved to see Buddy and hear his voice. Everyone was perfect! Buddy would have been proud!!!

Two legends together pure genius

Keeping the legend of the great Buddy Holly alive. Thanks for the upload and thanks Gregory Porter. Negative comments not welcomed!

My brother died from Covid on the 14th of June 2020 and this was his favourite Buddy Holly song. I’m sure he would have loved this version. RIP Derek xx

I can't get enough of our local musical genius Mr. Gregory Porter.

What A Nice Recording! And A Big Surprise.... I Love The Warm Voice From Gregory Porter In Combination With The Strings. Buddy Hollys Voice Is Not From This Planet! Amazing Video!!! I Love This

I have just been floored by this version of this song. I am sure Texas' best singer is in heaven with a big smile in his face. Buddy you are the greatest and I still miss you more than any singer in the world. I was born in 1955 and I am glad to be around during your life time. RIP

Perfect. I love this version.

For some reason I just want to hug Mr. Porter. Such a warm voice

Im so glad I checked this out. My.father turned me on to Buddy Holly as a child and his music made such an impression on me. I lost my father to Cancer in 2016 and listening to this took me back to the times I would sit in his lap while he played Buddy Holly and the music he grew up on. Made me tear up in a good way. Rest easy,Dad and Buddy.

How are you doing dear? Hope all is well.

Absolutely beautiful. I think Buddy would be so proud. :)

Wow technology! Orchestra. Sounds 👌

deep & mellow~~~ great voices of Gregory Porter and Buddy Holly with the Orchestra

Incredible ..... bringing back the legend and the music we all love

Absolutely amazingly beautiful, if buddy could hear this he would have been so proud

Buddy was a genius. Mr Porter Is also.

Absolutely beautiful and soulful

Absolute Perfection ...I don't know much about Mr. Porter, but I know this...His understated performance was incredible. He had such respect and reverence for the music. He does what the great artists do....He made his vocal about the song and not himself. Pure class. Well done Buddy, Gregory Porter and The LSO.

What an awesome complement to Buddy Holly how beautiful is this?

God.. just how good is this..

The band are spectacular and Gregory is always wonderful.

Really enjoyed this !! Such a great classic song. Voices go really well together !! 😀🎼🎤

Lyrics The sun is out, the sky is blue There's not a cloud to spoil the view But it's raining, raining in my heart The weatherman says clear today He doesn't know you've gone away And it's raining, raining in my heart Oh, misery, misery What's gonna become of me? I tell my blues they mustn't show But soon these tears are bound to flow 'Cause it's raining, raining in my heart But it's raining, raining in my heart And it's raining, raining in my heart Oh, misery, misery What's gonna become of me? I tell my blues they mustn't show But soon these tears are bound to flow 'Cause it's raining, raining in my heart Raining in my heart Raining in my heart

According to the bios I've read over the years, Buddy always wanted to evolve into writing musical scores for use in films. This album of his songs performed with the Royal Philharmonic proves he was on the right track with his talents. His original works recorded in the Pinthion Temple (True Love Ways and Raining in My Heart) serve as further, much earlier evidence of the depth of His talents. Perhaps making The Buddy Holly Story 2.0 should be explored utilizing the works of the Philharmonic Orchestra?? Gary Busey was great in the original, albeit not 100% accurate, movie portrayal of Buddy's life. Not GB's fault, blame screenplay writer.

Lol

Why change something that was perfect to begin with. Hate it when they re-do these songs just to cash in !

I'm really impressed by the sound processing of the violins. I'm really picky but I couldn't tell any difference from the original. I've never heard an orchestra being able to recreate something someone else did so exact! What I find weird is the processing of the 2 voices. It seems they lowered the sound quality of Buddy while the other guys has top modern quality. I feel they should be more united. Now it sounds like they're very separate. I'm sure something could be done to unite them more.

@DaRR3L P. Love B.Holly, long time fan, love the Orchestration, but Porter's vocals NOT needed, "Make America Great Again!"

There is already strings on this track. Just another way of fouling another legendary performers music up. Gregory porter can't make a living on his own, so he finds someone with actual talent, and makes a living off them.

Totally pointless.

It is a matter of opinion, however, I must say I do agree with you. He doesn’t add anything to Buddy’s version - their voices don’t blend particularly well, so while he may be singing the right harmonies, they don’t sound particularly good. I think that he should have recorded his own version without Buddy singing.

Completely and utterly insults Buddy Holly

I came with an open mind but this is just awful. Porter completely ruins the song with his contrived vocals. There is no soul or anything interesting about this cover. Some songs you don't touch. Apparently, this is one of them.
