Richard has a bit of history on Tim, but both are bona fide genius'. Superb rendition! |

Curiously, it's been rejected a couple of times, I think. Don't know why because it's by far the best version..... |

Have not heard a song in the last weeks that is so much off target to be worth being played at RP

There's an excellent live version of this. This one really is too um .. you're right... jangly.  edit, think I'll take that comment back. I enjoyed that second time through. |

Indeed there is. Tim Finn is Crowded House frontman Neil Finn's brother, and was part of the band for one album (Woodface). |

(ps -- this song was something of a a collaboration between Richard Thompson, who wrote the music as an instrumental originally, and Tim Finn, who put the lyrics to it afterwards...) Too bad I missed it, I know of that great version by R & T Thompson |

I also second the general comments on this version of the song as compared to RT & Teddy's. The latter is soooo beautiful and heartbreaking while this version seems fluffy and jangly; strange to think it was Tim who penned the lyrics. :-k
