If you like this song, you should check out the live performance on the Jools Holland show.  Scorching guitar, didn't even really appreciate it on the studio version.  He's got some pitch problems but she really kicks it.

There are some great performance clips at thier web site as well.

The Song part "The wanting..." is cool, but the Repaid-part simply sucks, annoying voice of that girl. And on her climax I get bleeding ears...

"reedy glen"
"anointed you with lotions"
"break of light"

Trying to channel Keats, perhaps?

I gave it a "4" only because the 4-votes seemed under-represented (upgraded from a "2").

What's the Rollings Stones song that sounds (in the intro) like the part this guy sings along with the keyboards?

Saw this live - it was interesting and non-traditional...this was part of a story that the album is based on, dress, music style and so on...I prefer other bodies of work by the band and Colin...

De no ser por la técnica de la voz masculina, el tema iría bien pero ... les falta un buen cantante.
