A couple weeks later, and I am still smitten by this song.  Still spontaneously sing bits of it from time to time. I don't suppose you have the lyrics and chords written out?  I think it would make me happy to strum away with at home.  (I have not yet developed the capability to work out songs by ear).

Wow Geir! This song really moved me. Don`t know if you wrote it about a lady friend or not but it sure made me think about one of my best friends who passed away 2 years ago. Very excellent work. Keep it up.

Glad to see this one gets bumped a lot. I listen to this one all the time, just a great song.

I will definitely be making drunken phone calls to some of my long lost buddies tonight!!

You rule, Geir!

Peace, and have a great weekend in London!

I missed this first time round (some irony there....). But I'm so glad it was bumped because it's so beautiful. Its simpicity and emotional directness is so powerful but the recording is also great. The vocals are clear and your voice just cuts through so strong. Superb.

Cheers,

I think I check the original songs board guite regularly, but how I have missed this...

Very beautiful melody and lyrics, two guitars and your voice. It is enough. This is a perfect pop song, G!

Missed this too what a performace, just got new headphones and this tune just jumped right out, the dry vox and the acousic just suit each other perfectly all this and just wonderfull songwriting, a great song.

I've heard a lot of music in my life, but I have never had a song touch me as much as this one.
