Actually the song is called Vincent after you know who.
I love the simplicity of the performance here, no background singers moaning in every other phrase, no raucous horns or long harp trills to interrupt the beautiful song, just Don and his guitar. Thats the way good songs should be sung. Imagine for instance, Madonna singing like this cut.
