David Gray - Songbook 5/6

Music journalist and author Will Hodgkinson interviews singer-songwriter David Gray. Although Gray released his first album in 1993, he did not receive worldwide recognition until his 1999 album White Ladder catapulted him to fame and fortune. With seven albums under his belt, Gray has won two Ivor Novello Awards for songwriting and received a Grammy nomination. Here he describes what inspired him to write the haunting songs, This Year's Love, The One I love, You're The World To Me and Breathe, before giving an exclusive performance of them.

David seems to be a little tired at this point; and rightly so, if I count right, he spent

more than half an hour with this interviewer. However, I suppose he has to do this to get his music out to the public. David Gray is a true artist; hope he receives

the credit he deserves for making such great music. i love all his music.
