I got away from your site for some time. Good to be back. I missed both you and David. You have the best stuff. Thank you. I like Clune, also, but really like the way Keith Pryor fits into the new vibe. The music, as always, is beautiful. Do you have the Foundling stuff? Will you? I haven't heard it , yet. Thanks for all your hard work.
Wow, the emotion he strikes with his poetic words and sound. It's just so profound in richness. Love it! Thanks for posting. His show always has some amazing performances. Damn Great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
TOUCHE' i don't know why he's not as blown up as he deserves to be. such a great raw talent!! it's sad how people are becoming more used to and accepting of fabricated talent! ASSHOLES!!
Actually you ignorant fool she was (white) like it matters, but to explain it to you "Black Swan" is a SONG from Thome York's solo album...it was another song that we listened to together. She liked it so much that I started calling her my "Black Swan" b/c they are rare (as was she) Racist is the last thing that I am and you are imbecilic as fuck for commenting on something that u know ABSOLUTELY NOTHING ABOUT.
Today is the one year anniversary of my girlfriends death, when we met she played this song for me on her ipod and it was "our song" This is the first time that I have forced myself to listene to it. This is an amazing song and will forever remind me of my true love. Rest In Peace my black swan,,,,
hey man i cant be on the same level with u when it comes to a passing girl friend. but i can with songs ur afraid to listen to because it reminds yu of ur love.
im sure she loved you back very much.
just keep strong man!
keep positive
and keep getting up when u feel like you are gonna fall!
@Recovrd1 It does get easier . Time is the only healer. My husband Garry died of bone cancer, we'd been together for 18years. He'sbeen dead for 21 years now and i still play 'Our tune' Dont walk away by ELO when i need a good cry. Cherish the time you were together and your memories, no-one can ever take them away from you This song can help keep your beautiful Black swan fresh in your mind . Play it when you want to feel close to her Gina R.
@Recovrd1 my dad loved this song , we used to fight all thr time but he loved david and that got us back in a relationship but sadly hr died of cancer and this reminds me of the time we had as friends
This speaks to me on a very visceral level. He and the band add something to their live performance that is not present on the recording; the inflection and timing are more affecting in the live performance. LOVE THIS!
he's as gud live as he is on record, if ya think about it only legends have got that ability, like freddy mercury elton john or stevie wonder... thers others a just cant think (its late)
This is so great...does anyone know the make and model of the blue guitar in this video? It may be completely custom but any information would be appreciated.
fantastic voice, first time i heard him, i thought he was black guy because of his voice timbre. i know david gray for few years and i really would like to hear him live.
@smizzel69 Only way to find artist like this, at least whos a bit well known, is to go backwards. Check out Van Morrisons album Astral Weeks... especially the song Sweet thing. First time I heard it I actually tought it was David Gray.
Listening to this sober makes you think, listening to it when you recently declared your unending love for your g/f and your wish to marry her when your a bit drunk...makes you cry with happiness, a genius. 500/10
he recently went on an acoustic-only tour, to give him the opportunity to put new life into older songs. It was him, the bassist, and the new guy on electric guitar was there as well.
So he got rid of his old band after that tour - he and his drummer clune, he said, lost their creative juices together. However on the brighter side he said he is at the peak of his career.. new stuff coming out soon!!! So pumped.
some serious staff going on in here, just love it!
