[J0ELSTJ0HN]

My heroes!!! Add me if they're your heroes too! Cheers!

[mrcrotch]

I feel like such a talentless dick...

[muzikizlife10]

Wow! This jams!

[shortypants201]

did mic christopher write this originally? i like this version, but there's no beating mic's version, it's amazing, just like he was!

[uyutom]

no, mic didn't

[gramach]

Michelle Shocked wrote it.

[charlieboy815]

How can I download this song???

[emmsmadness]

Does anyone know where you could get the piano music for this?

[Jackiegoal]

@emmsmadness The chords progression is a very simple Am-G-F-E for the entire song. Improvisation always sounds better on songs like this.

[niamheire]

@emmsmadness nah its pretty much improv.

[SuperMotherfucker14]

gr8 song

shawn mullen dus a gr8 job at it:L

[EugeneDempsey]

[earlyblue]

Check out Ritchie Nevada

[toooldtodie]

Sorry, Marketa, sorry, Glen but this time Liam's piano makes this song.

[cniiru]

Very good performance of this song I must say.

[mrsdube]

Saw Swell Season in Chi-town last night.  Brilliant. Only thing that could make it better.....if Hot House Flowers toured with Swell Season !

[int53185]

Amazing piano!

[temporarydive]

Great perfomance.

[thebenns]

Who wrote Fogtown?

[gerfarmer]

Michelle Shocked from Texas wrote Fogtown, it appears on her CD called "Texas Campfire Tapes" circa 1987. Great story behind that album.

[thebenns]

thanks a lot I will check that out

[wooitsmark]

personally i think the original from the "Short Sharp Shocked" album is terrible, the verses are fast and almost like a punk track and it all suddenly slows down for the chorus and it feels out of place. I've yet to hear the Texas campfire tapes but i pray they're better than Short Sharp Shocked. Seeing Glen and Marketa play this live was just amazing

[carmelkitten]

does anyone know if there is a recording of them performing this song anywhere?

[nifscan]

Brilliant....but cant beat the one with Mic in that pub...now thats feican powerful....!!!!

[deec33dk]

totally agree... mic christopher nailed this one... but this version with LO'M is pretty effing good too. Glen hansard is his usual brilliant self.

[walkbyfaith03]

Favourite rendition of this song! They're voices are so powerful together, brilliant is indeed the correct word!

[TempleBar1972]

Fecking brilliant!!! Could play it over and over and over again.

[shmiminashie]

[lukeydev]
