Thanks Kari for sendiing this. Initially i thought it was too busy for a vocal and also your request to keep sunflowers in the title  ;D . So i struggled to find a way in. Then i realised the melody was already there and just followed the guitar.

Just a thought, but I think Paivi could do a better job on the vocals than I do.

A beautiful song and perfectly arranged/produced. As Tim says above, a lovely Donovan kinda vibe. Great collab guys.

Wow, what a lovely musical arrangement. How generous of you to provide those little melody bit for Jim to play around with lyrically. Outstanding

No only am I always amazed by Jim's singing but also his ability to conjure up such engaging lyrics and in this case in such a minimalist fashion... making it seem so effortless.

A psychedelic brew indeed.

I had the festival jukebox playing on the laptop while I did a little cleanup in the office and for the first few bars, I thought it was Greeny on vocals. Came over and checked the jukebox, and it was Oldrottenhead hisself!

Really beautiful, pastoral guitars, Kari - and James' vocal and lyrics step right into the psychedelic.

Well done, gents.

Yes, love the trippy guitars so good, such wonderful depth.
ORH has captured that folky psychedelia sound  perfectly, loved it!

I was pleased to sing this lovely tune but I must say James version was quite charming. Nice Scottish vibe.  ;)
