Appreciating your efforts here, Guido, but this is not the way to do it.

First, we already have this song (work) on the site: Lovin' You and we had most of your covers as well. I've added the remaining lot: Shondell's, Sebastian's live cover and the recent Spoonful tribute.

Please search our database first, before submitting your covers via "add cover", thanks.

I did search the database but haven't found it:

I entered the title and only found the Minnie Riperton song.

I looked at the works of John Sebastian, and I didn't find it there.

While I have found a couple of videos, I just put them together and published the findings in the forum.

Today, after your answer, I looked again and I received more results than I had yesterday.

Thanks for the help.

By the way: I'm not very fond of doing unnecessary work. ;-) Add cover is much easier...
