Excellent work guys. The vocals are awesome! Although, oldrottenhead's Irish accent needs work. ;)

Lovely haunting cover! Just had my second listen having my after dinner ciggie in the garden. There's afew stars coming out and the sky's still orange in the west. A great soundtrack to the moment!

was staying at friends last night for bonfire night and got very very drunk, when i got home this morning i was delighted to find the music from mr d in my message box, so it was the perfect hangover cure for me before heading to work, mr d suggested i sang in a style similar to my song "big sky" hence the scottish accent.

vox are a bit shaky not suprising considering my tender state and done in one take, so lots of mistiming, going out of tune and a myriad of other faults with my singin but i think they suit the nature of the lyric.

i really ejoyed doing this one mr d.
