Yeah, with the word 'quite' in there, I almost agree with you |

Can't help but hear "Welcome Me" by Indigo Girls...

I would have to hear David Gray singing a good song first before I could compare the two. People are so quick to tarnish decades of great songwriting by comparing the artist to a modern day flash-in-the-pan. |

One of those albums that really stick out in your life....one where every song is a sing-along...takes me back to the the deepest love of my life and the hardest heartbreak right behind it...."can't tell the bottle from the mountain top"........

that's my thought exactly when my friend first brought this album back from ireland. In those good days before david gray got slipped into the mainstream. Good stuff. |

A very, very fine album from a great songwriter.

As others have said, this whole album is GREAT. So is _A New Day at Midnight_, and y'know for the most part his new _Life in Slow Motion_ is good too. Especially "The One I Love."
But maybe I'm just a diehard David Gray fan. :)

Oh wow, didn't know this was on RP. This song has literally made me cry, it's so heartfelt....one of my favorites by David Gray.  |

This album is excellent all the way through. It's unfortunate his subsequent work has not quite lived up to it.

Hi, Platy. I'd encourage you to listen to the rest of White Ladder. Gray's got a LOT more substance than this song reveals. He's easy to listen to and his lyrics are moving. This song doesn't do the bulk of his work much justice
