I may have heard this before I've heard the original. I'll have to go listen to that next.

As I get older, I find myself more drawn to stripped-down songs, where the vocal performance is the focus. And this is one of those. Well done, FM.

And thanks, Geir, for the CTOMF. I need more CTOMFs.

Brilliant Rob, just brilliant. And you made me search out the original, which I hadn't heard. That's a double plus as well.

I love your singing here, spine tingling.

Cheers,

An excellent composition. Songs like this one are worth waiting for.

Well done!

I'm stunned - hardly can gather my thoughts here....This is a brilliant cover of a brilliant song.  I remember listening to Geir's original and thinking wow...and just went back to listen again (I hadn't commented on it then but will shortly).  This cover is more like an experience than just a song...it creates a beautify aura and a mood. The vocals cause small hairs to raise on the back of my neck.  Hard to believe it was the first time using new recording software any playing keys -- because both are just perfect!  I think what's amazing about this cover is that it is so soft and the music is parsimonious and there is so much open space in there...just the essential sounds...every note counting. The simple backing vocals are a work of beauty.

These days I merely dabble at being old and wise.
But I swear, I used to absolutely excel at being young and stupid.
