  • Phenomenal song.

  • I like the phrasing of the piano on this song is so Thomas Dolby. There is a quotation of another song in there. I think it's like on Pirate Twins.

  • Oh, it is glorious the way Bruce's and Jeffrey's (sp?!) playing, and your own,

    Thomas, all flow like water... it's all so atmospheric! Absolutely lovely. To

    hear the tracks isolated is to appreciate the talent of the people who played

    them. I love the way your reversal of a bit of Jeffrey's playing is visible at

    6:08-6:18 into this video. Neato! :-)

  • love the song! but Thomas, what are we watching on the screen?
