Reminds a little me of Tom Rush's beautiful "Child's Song". Which is a good thing.

This is not music for friday afternoons

Yes indeed. Like this a lot.

Full of hope, simple and pure vocals and instrumentals, rare qualities these days, thanks.

So boring,

Not bad!

Beautiful song, simply wonderful :))

Nick Drake? I think not.

I suggest you listen to London Conversation - John Martyn's first album. The resemblance is uncanny and like John, Alexi was raised in Scotland.

my body likes him, I like him 2 - sounds a bit like Nick Drake..so well

Okay - let's pull this into focus. Almost all the folks who post here are intelligent, educated, and mostly-literate human beings. Sure, there are differing opinions about songs, and that's just cool.  And then there's Stingray, who apparently thrives on shock-value because he's got nothing else with which to make his mark.  Some of us feed the troll, some complain about him, some vilify him (I'm guilty of all), and some just ignore him. Still, his comments are like an agitated stinkbug in a paradisiac garden - offensive, noticeable, and difficult to eradicate.

So, as much as it pains me to say this, I'm voting for ignoring his posts. Think of them as commas, leading to better posts by other people.

As one wise person from a web forum once told me, "If you have a gripe, take it off the board."  From now on, if Stingray's infantile, nonsensical posts get me hot under the collar, I'll PM him. He doesn't deserve all the publicity he's been getting.

And that's all I'm saying about this.

Meanwhile, I still really love Alexi Murdoch's music, and I'll probably spend more money soon.  Darn it.

Is that a pile of shit i smell or is it Stingray again?! Are you aiming for the least-contributing-RP-listener-of-the-year-award again?

Wow, you are one sad story... Telling me - in a topic of an Alexi Murdoch song - nobody would care about another similar song, yet you think it's useful to post what some shitbrain Austrian guy would - NOT - say.

Please Stingray, do yourself a favour, don't waste your energy on posting these useless comments, try to save the last braincell that's left in that empty head of yours.

So.... If you like this, you'll love Alexi's song "Blue Mind" too...

I am slumped over in my chair, drooling on myself, and have a vacant look in my eyes.

I love the way this song washes over me...

Mirrorball-> Undone in sorrow -> some day soon -> and now Hold On. Oh the sweet sweet pathos.

P.S. I don't think "prick" means what you think it means.

Who the fuck cares what kind of "Blue Mind" you like, HORSCHT...?

Unbelievable!

WHAT A PRICK!

"I love my father and I love him well"....?
Whaaat...?

WHAT A FREAKIN' PRICK!!!!

Hmm...I hope all his songs aren't quite so repetitive???

I really want to get this CD.  Love the music the more I hear it.  And Stingray - I don't suppose it would do any good to tell you to take a flying leap through a rolling donut, would it?

Thought not. 

Neither Amazon nor iTunes has this song... bummer.

Sincerely, Neil
