David Gray - "Draw the Line" on KFOG Radio

[malicenbrocade]

Do not listen to davidlynch he is a confused , I don't like beiber and I have never been on any of his pages , he is jealous

[MrArniemazmax]

Your mental I love his lyrics deep stuff.

[LAchickee]

Dodgy lyrics? he's fucking brilliant

Need to take some pride baby, need to take some heart

Need to take evasive action, when the rumpus start

Here we are buck naked, yeah but

Where should we begin

When it's not the flesh we're after

But the howlin' ghost within



[LAchickee]

brilliant

[eldafyre]

Awsum :)



[0dokker]

can anyone get the gpro tab for this guitar?id kill for it

[keithjones1015]

amazing. sounds just as good as the studio version.

[Angelemerald]

Dodgy lyrics, in that they require some thought perhaps. This song is excellent lyrically. How many songs do you know that use the words, lichen or rumpus or the phrase a carnival of silverfish? Not many. I'm not easily impressed with the vast majority of lyricists today, but well, I will have to examine David Gray's songs more closely. I've heard My Oh My by Warren Haynes who I feel has better phrasing than David for it, but this song perks my interest to get a few of David's cds.

[satelliteRadar]

Country Rock???? Not hardly. No dogs dying here. David Gray is one of the greatest musicians to come out in the early 2000's. Even though I have a sampler from caroline records dating back to 1993 with him on it. He has always been great & just gets better & better with time. No fading away with David gray......

[relfexreaction]

my favourite song from him after babylon. or, to be precise, these 2 actually seem to be the only songs i like from him at all. but they both are really good.

[guavalava79]

ok am not some 50 year old hippie, but some how this song talks to me

[fahad05556800]

man i just can't listen to that song and never say good job man

[SuperChester93]

love it

[gatorsinger]

RALPH LAURNE LIKES HIM WELL ENOUGH TO USE HIM IN HIS FASHION CAT WALKS

[Frampa]

So wonderful it sounds and feels so good to listen to David Gray

[AquarielCharm]

I never heard this song before or of David Gray. Unbelieveable right? I love this song. I'm sending this to a few of my friends and saving this in my soft rock playlist or is it country rock? Hm...

[ramman82]

Absolutely FANTASTIC!!! No ear candy here! This man is a true musician in the truest sense of the word. Incredible soul, rhythm and lyrics that have such a heart felt sense to them. This acoustic style is some of the greatest music on the planet. We all really need more of this peaceful healing power. The more I listen the more I relax and remember what is important in my life.

Always Thankful to David Gray whose soul is full of wonder and feeling put to a heartfelt melody!! Thank you!

[ace0135]

the music reminds me of the zeitgeist theme.

[Justintimefor2006]

Man, he's fantastic live.

[DaveyLynch]

I like David Gray so shut up fools for not understanding objective critcism. He just hasn't made any decent music since "White Ladder" He wouldn't know that because he will be surrounded by a bunch of arse licking industry people who are driven by greed!!

[imacommentonabunch]

@DaveyLynch Douche. , just cause you dont like it doesnt mean everybody else doesnt. also he's selling albums and making money, whatr you doing, sitting in your basement and offering your two cents, stop wasting your time not worth the hassle bud

[JoePro1155]

David gray had to draw the line

[jimmymac63]

Dodgy lyrics??? I think it is just his uniqueness. Just like Tracy Chapman. Stay true to yourself David Gray, change for no one!

[orkstyle123]

Saw and met david at atlanta a the W hotel it was awsome

[lisulle]

my favorite singer.

[babygirl2978]

I feel this song cant relate. I was addicted to meth and I was slamming dope for awhile and now thanks to god I have 14 months clean!! woo hoo

[P514sub]

I lost my fuckin CD I hate it fuck I hate myself I always do that it was a gift Fuck FUCK FUUUCK! fuck ADHD! I hate it ADHD!

[lozzafinn]

are you getting the message?? We have to very soon.........love you david for singing at the top of your lungs about it!!! We all should, I hear you x

[Mustapops]

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE, David Gray!! Saw him live in Vegas years ago and is still one of the best performers I have ever seen!

[NikonPhoto07]

Such a great song.

[clockmusic]

If this isn't awesome, what is?

[untomatchi]

@clockmusic you!

[DaveyLynch]

Don't worry you can have your say. Commercially driven comments are always welcome. democratic comments are always a danger in this material age. XX sales = XX ads!!!!!

[CogleyWood]

If you dont like his music why are you on youtube listening to it . I dont like jay Z so i dont go to his channels and i dont bring him down .

[NALung]

Love the song. love the guitars Thanks for posting. Quick note to DaveyLynch...Songwriters who can't get anyone to listen to their music often criticize successful songwriters for being "Too Commercial" or "A sellout" I see it all the time. If you don't recognize David Gray's exceptional talent then you simply don't understand what a good song is, which is why all are touched by his beautiful music and annoyed by your noise.

[westfeuersongs]

I like this song! Two guitars and the voice of David and his guitarist. Did David tuned his guitar one step down and played the song with capo on 7th fret??? Actually I play this song with capo on 6th fret in standard tuning...

[damnitjimimonlyadr]

Thanks for the response, Cejowto.

[zuludelta100]

Dear Simon Cowell

Have a listen to some real singing, not that shite you call talent.

Yours Sincerely

Someone who really knows what he's talkin about.

[Partoftheratpack]

@zuludelta100 great comment, I hate that x factor shit.

[damnitjimimonlyadr]

Who is that gentleman on the left?

[tbiler]

David Gray is an awesome singer/song writer and i love the fact he is not a sell out commercial music whore. If you don't like it don't listen. I agree with conventrynative, "he is in a league of his own!"

[DaveyLynch]

David Gray has been famous since 1998 with "White Ladder" I don't know where you get your facts from??

[DaveyLynch]

"Debsco1978" do you not understand anything about commercial music..? It's all about SALES SALES SALES!!!!

[TheTroubledTribble]

Heard this on NPR, totally fell in love with it.

Actually took the time to write his name down, and I'm a lazy one. :)

It's a really good song.

[DaveyLynch]

It's true that David Gray has written some dodgy lyrics, especially in the past. That's because he concentrates too much on the aesthetic rather than that sincerity that an audience can relate too. Having said that his voice is great and he's capable of great songwriting when he gets it right. I personally think that this type of music would work better with a "live feeling" rather than a heavily over produced sound

[coventrynative]

whatever, he's brilliant

[Rasta181]

Does anyone know what tuning he is playing in??

[capitalgreen99]

Fu**in Awesome!!

[TheFordy8879]

Im Inspired By david gray . He makes music amazing..

[tsotsi12]

David Gray just keeps getting better with age. Like a good wine!

[eightballreid]

David gray is probably one of the best at what he does,alright some dodgy lyrics at times which he admits himself,but just an amazing sound in anything he does,as for overproducing i think your wrong their mate,i have been following David gray since his first gig in ireland way back in the day in whealens and i personally think every album he does is better than his last,thats why he keeps changing his musicans,to find that all elusive different sound that all singer- songwriters try and find

[vdeferens]

Yes, the sound of their head disappearing up their own arse.

[relfexreaction]

@eightballreid he does sound overproduced oftentimes though. probably owing to his heavy use of drum machines :S

[Oithissucks]

@eightballreid Isn't this song written by Allan MacColl? (either way, I agree, David is amazing at what he does.)

[splitterfitta]

Beautiful song!

[yadakyra]

No matter what everbody here says: this song, this performance fills me with a lot of joy!

[DaveyLynch]

Nickjtown u must understand that critcism is useful. David Gray is just a songwriter like another. media hype puts them on a pedestal. I am a songwriter myself. Obviously you are not!!!

[coventrynative]

Nah, you've got it wrong, David Gray isn't a songwriter like another--he's in a class of his own and your criticism bores me

[DaveyLynch]

Sorry mate you know nothing about songwriting. That's why commercial music sells. David Gray is a businessman. He targets his music for people like you. He doesn't play the music he really likes because his label won't let him....

[debsco1978]

What bollocks you talk

[DispleasedMusic]

David Gray was unsigned when he wrote and recorded this album so this is actually what he really wants to play. So actually MATE you know nothing.

[DaveyLynch]

What the hell are you on about? This album was recorded in the studio previously owned by Eurythmics. A lot of money has gone into the production...Wake up and smell the roses!!!!!

[DispleasedMusic]

Yes previously owned by them and now he ownes it!

Here's a direct quote:

"Gray recorded the album, the first set of new songs since 2005's Life in Slow Motion, in his own studio--The Church Studios--while un-signed to a record label.The studio previously belonged to the Eurythmics"

You really need to stop causing arguments on this post. Accept your wrong.

[101truthproject]

@DaveyLynch idiot

[Starpadawan]

You know that is as stupid as me saying that every piece of music you like is developed to target people like you, that they all are businessmen like David Grey, and that none of them play the music they actually like to play... Think before you speak...

[ScummyD1]

Rank speculation born of envy.

[ScummyD1]

Criticism is only useful when it's substantive. Nothing you have offered in this thread comes anywhere close to being that. Something obviously bugs you about Gray and so you ramble on with empty rhetoric that really has no meaning when you get right down to it.

[skulptivator]

keep the piano David! Your music is as raw as it gets!!

[DaveyLynch]

Most people I talk to about David Gray say that his earlier stuff was much better. His new material is heavily over produced and lacks the "rawness" of earlier songs. It's true that he is able to get away with dodgy lyrics due to his clever interpretation

[nickjtown]

sounds to me u not into d gray ,stick to dodgy mate .

[toclachile]

well i can only agree with the "throw the piano away" comments. wish the (admittedly great new album) had more of the "flesh" rawness. david: don't overproduce, man!

[UTnavyvol]

@daveylynch 1st off lyrical master would refer to the lyrics of the songs not the presentation of it and 2 i dont believe he mumbles his words, anyways thats also his presentation of the song so shut it. . .

[DaveyLynch]

How can you call him a lyrical master when he mumbles most of the words

[grand1976]

It's what he says not how he says it

[acastillo76]

so i guess with that logic, David matthews, bob dylan, tom petty, thom Yorke... are not lyrical masters because they mumble when they sing... ok gotcha... whatever dude? get off your high horse...

[VirtAdam]

I thought ricky gervais had picked up a guitar and started to play with David Gray when I saw the guy on the left!

Absolutely fantastic, his new stuff is as good as his old stuff! Definatley an album worth purchasing.

[1sorrowfulmoon]

Yup lose the piano David, well apart from Nos Da Cariad and Falling Free, that is...

[markustk]

the piano is awsome, david gray kick ass with piano!

[clearskies]

Now I like this track...back to what he does best! Guitar!! Throw the piano away!!

[1sorrowfulmoon]

Love it!

[whitey882003]

i love this song, im giving this sng a 5star rating, unlike sum people who give it a 1 star! Hello Laura! xx

[ragdump]

Hey I know the guy with the baseball cap It's .......Billdoe

[farron34]

[gimicoffee83]

[DaveyLynch]

[skewer91]
