This is breathtaking. This crosses the line into Art. David Gavurin's guitar work is excellent, but it is the combination of Harriet Wheeler's sublime voice and her uncanny ability to interpret a song (this is not the only example) from the pensive understated beginning through to the intensity of feeling present in the chorus and end that makes this gem a masterpiece.
I didn't hear this version till 2008 and holy shit does it take me back to that rainy saturday afternoon with minju, in korea. we listened to this again and again while snuggling on my bed, I kept hitting the play button over and over. I'm still in Korea, but munju's long gone.
Like all her lyrics & music, it's so soothing for anyone who is happy or heart brokened. Thank you and Mahalo Harriet. This is one of my broken hearted times.
Some years ago, my girlfriend and I were driving a cliff side coastal road as the sun was setting over the ocean. This song was playing on the car radio as the warm summer air rushed in through the windows. Without doubt, one of the most romantic moments of my life. I'll never tire of this song. Beautiful.
@WilliamG1970 yeah it was made for harriet she really brings this to another level it means so much to me that she sings with so much emotion its beautiful got me threw some tough times!
The vid aired around March '93 in the U.S. Harriet and David hosted a MTV 120 Minutes episode in late Feb. '93, and I remember Harriet mentioned that they had just finished the video.
i have always been the middle child black sheep of the family & when I invited my older sis to see me sing this song at a cafe as a tribute to HER she met me back stage & said i sucked.
I think it's just the raw talent and professionalism of how the song is presented. The emotion and effort that's put into this rendition really shows. The mood that The Sundays create IMO reflects the true feel the writer wanted to convey. Nicely done, nice indeed.
I got this song from the movie Fear. It played 2 times in the movie and I really liked it. =] So, now I'm listening to it and this song is so beautiful! So emotional. Defenitely a good couple song. =]
I almost blew my load in my pants when I watched this scene in Fear. Such an AMAZING scene like unreal it's almost tooooooo good to be made by humans. When I watched this movie for the first time on a late summer night with my girlfriend last summer. I didn't think it would be anything thing special but it was a good movie and that 1 scene made it all worth while. And if your GF hasn't heard this song or seen the movie I suggest playing it while love making to show her your sensitive side:).lol
@n3iyr, The Stone's version is great, and this version is great. But after doing a side by side listen....Yeah, I think you are right, the Sundays is better. For one, the Stones need to lose the piano in their version.
The Sundays version however, is all together--it's magical.
I liked this ever since I saw that movie "Fear" waaay back in the day. It's kinda haunting, sexy & cool. Just a good rendition of Mick Jaggers' version. Thanks for posting.
A gf in the 90's introduced me to this song one cold clear early spring night. I've been hooked on this group ever since. The closest their tour came to me was Colorado about 10 years ago / 1997, I cannot imagine a more perfect venue to this song than looking up at the starry starry night bordered by snow covered mountains.
since i watched the "fear", this song just stuck in my head all the time!! it is just simply beautiful song that touches everyone's heart and make them to think about their loved ones! at least, it makes me feel like that! =)
I didn't realise the Stones were the original artists either. But i love this song. I definately think this interpretation is alot better. Very Transcending. First heard it in Fear......... We all know that scene.
I love, LOVE this song. I feel like such a dolt cuz I didn't even know that the rolling stones were the original artists! I love this version though.. the other is so... rolling stones like... haha
