Beautiful! Simple, organic and so well done. Great lyrics too!

Like a journal entry of your day. Very folky and well done. Love the fact this is a true "field" recording, the birds add to that too. There was an English folk group called Heron who recorded outside and it does give a very different vibe to the recording, not just the outside noises but the way you perform it too. Damn cold here though to attempt that at the moment though. Maybe in 6 months might give it a try.

Cheers

Hi Hook, you're writing some great stuff at the moment and I love simplicity of this. The photo reminds me of a holiday I spent in a hunters cabin on the Restigouche in New Brunswick. Spent the day looking for hollow logs to make a chimney and the nights drinking and singing. Happy days...........Willie

The tweeting birds and the intimate nature of the song almost give it a modern day "Blackbird" feel.

Just a beautiful song Hook, you really captured something with the outdoor recording here.

I was trying to work out what you had tattooed on your leg too :)

Just getting to this one, lovely.  I get a great feeling listening to this as the snow howls outside.
