Can I just say I love this song. It's just so beautiful, it makes me cry everytime I hear it.

You should listen to the Devils Arse version - there's no better, its absolutely beautiful - beats even the live version. :D :D :D :D :D

Yes, beautiful. Did you notice how Mr H used a slowed down version of the musical box intro from the Devil's Arse's Lady Solitude on Don't You Cry? Makes me want warm milk, Sleepy Sam and a big label to rub.

I think he ripped it from the opening titles of Camberwick Green..... :wink:

I will seek this out, thank you, if you could point me in the right direction.

Any chance he'll play it in January?

It's on the soundtrack album from the Devils Arse - try the main website, failing that I think it was Liveherenow.com or co.uk that sells it.

couldn't agree more, it is stunning. The opening kinda reminds me of the Velvet Undergound's 'Sunday Morning'.

Cheers, Steve.

I'm confused. I thought Devils Arse was a live version.

I suspect she means the current live version as the way the song is played has changed with each tour.

I would imagine Mr H would be happy with that comparison
