Hey, everyone, give Rufus a break, man, with all this talk about how tired and sad he looks in these QTV vids! He's closer to 37 than 36 years old here (not far off the mark where people's age starts to show) and his Mom had recently died of cancer!
The static accompaniment and its refusal to resolve is stunning underneath he line.
It is not from a musician who cannot figure out what to do... It is a perfect situation to express that paralytic state of shock / grief - everthing stops, nothing goes forward.
A singular and amazing song. The man is In a genre apart. No wonder he has the respect and friendshhip of Renee Fleming and others from the classical art music arena.

I can't believe such a horrid song exists. You all should be ashamed to write good things about it. My name is Zebulon and my nose isn't exactly small, but it's certainly the perfect size for my faith. There are a lot of people with noses that are big, just take a look at the jewish race. That includes such heroes as Jesus Christ and Barbra Streisand. You all should be ashamed.
This album has kind of sunk without trace in Britain, which is a tragedy because it's easily his best since Want one. Then again, sad songs that seem to be about sadness don't really sell, do they?
J'étais aux Funérailles de votre mère Kate, où vous avez interprété cette chanson. Elle me fait à nouveau ce même effet. Une magnifique tristesse, qui va avec l'immensité de la perte. vous me touchez profondément. bonne route Rufus.

love this song. very moving and intimate. the simple piano works for me. Merill (my daughter, 8) thinks it is sad but has a nice tune..

It looks like each time he hits a key it's causing him a lot of pain. Lots of emotion in this one.
