His 1985 cover of this (originally written by) Hal and Oates song is one of my absolute all-time favorites. Hall and Oates were Ovation endorsers at one time. The Wikipedia article about the song makes reference to the original 1985 Paul Young cover studio recording using, "an electric sitar ( Coral) and Ovation Spanish acoustic"; - the arrangement/guitar solo is Killer! The 2009 Paul Young video use a 1994 Collector, and it is literally, ( pardon the pun, eh?), a standing Ovation! The hands-free guitar stand/support is a bit unusual, but not uncommon. The actual song itself is not that hard to play on guitar, because the chord arrangement is easy to find on the internet, but I for one certainly CANNOT SING IT the way these, "blue-eyed soul" guys, Hall/Oates/Paul Young did!! The 1985 version is classic stuff, IMOHO. "Ovation guitars don't get the respect they deserve." They still get used a lot, and then, somehow, still mange to show up where you least expect it.
