I had my very own Robin Pecknold moment the other night at the Christmas party at work...The Dylan-esque musician went to the restroom, and I grabbed his guitar and improvised...FOR about five minutes! It was a Gift to Myself...(and maybe for the 20 or so people around me) :)
Thanks for posting this. It's a beautiful song by Chris. It brings back memories, a few of him, the restless man, visiting Wellington, sleeping in a chair once in my living room with loud rock music in earphones - explaining it helped shut out other noise, and at the folk club exchanging nasty hilarious comments with fools in the audience, but also memories of the song itself, such loneliness some of us sometimes have had, so well represented in the song.

I always loved fleet foxes but there was something about it i didn't like, a realised it was the really full music, which is great, but i like things a little simpler. This is perfecr :]
nice legal notice- (i don't think) good for the 'profession' but - in polite and decent soceities we mention the name of the writer: ie Chris Thompson - not a cold and meaningless message like you have here - get real man!
aknowledge your source and thank them! are you an artist or ... what?
Does anybody know the place he stands? Looks so beautiful. I wanna go there...

@snakebeings I apologize, I didn't realize it was a cover. I'll make sure Chris Thompson is fully credited for this magnificent song.
