[Patroler01]

''The sun gives light,and it takes it away,and like all the greats,it'll burn out someday''. Absolutely beautiful,he is a poet,a wordsmith,this song will go down in irish music history.

[Dante3025]

Everytime i read or hear that line it makes the hair on the back my neck stick straight up.

[wellplayedboy]

I think you ment Wordsworth. Please correct me if i'm wrong.

[Patroler01]

No i didnt,it means he's a master of words,like as if its his trade

[wellplayedboy]

Get ya, my apologies. Thought you were comparing Brian to the poet. Your compliment is equally apt.

[wellplayedboy]

[ikbenlaura]

Thank you SO MUCH for this acoustic version. That's how I first heard the song (BellX1 did an acoustic set as the support act for The Frames) and I immediately fell in love. "They're like headlights in the rear view mirror, they're closer than they seem." I don't know why, but to me that's the most beautiful sentence I've ever heard. :)

[GShinyToyGunsD]

Deadly Song!

[darkoyl]

Gives me chills EVERY time. Especially when I think of the story behind it about the vagrant who used live on the street near their house and one morning they came out and he had a woman with him. His name was Rocky.

Unadulterated beauty.
