Yea but they damn near gave him the credit.Percy was the man..
Michael Bolton is basically the white devil disguising his voice as a black man to steal Percy's thunder???
Well, I don't know who you are defining as "they". Most people know that it wasn't originally recorded by Michael Bolton.
Maybe younger people who never heard of Percy may have assumed that Bolton recorded it first. :manny:

Exactly a lot of cats our age (assuming your 30+) think it was Boltons song.Its sort of like how Whitney Houston I will Always Love you was record by Dolly Parton but Whitney did her thing we forgot it was an conver.Rock and Roll was stolen by us but that's another topic.RIP Percy Sledge :salute:

I actually had no idea until today Bolton wasn't the original on that track. That's pretty messed up
