Radio Paradise (mobile)

tom's the name that you know me by
and i'm 5'11, brown eyes
otherwise i'm just like you
see i've made my mistakes like we all do

but i'm skybound, i don't look down
i've got too much to live for

and i've learnt how to play it
with one foot in front of the other
there's no way to win it
just spin around and around

people walk with their heads down low
too afraid to be more
people talk with their voices low
too afraid to say more

but i'm skybound, no i don't look down
i've got too much to live for

and i've learnt how to play it
with one foot in front of the other
and there's no way to win it
we all just spin around and around

(instrumental)

learn how, learn how, learn how, learn how

you can learn how to play it
with one foot in front of the other
and there's no way to win it
we just spin around and around

round and around, round and around,
round and around, round and around....

Dahlia_Gumbo Apr 11, 2012 - 12:00	First time I've heard this. Decided I like it, even if the production is a little too pedestrian in places. [ Reply ]
ncarus Apr 06, 2012 - 11:23	Love TB, and he's brilliant live. Prefer the "Feather & Stone" album to Skybound, but it's all good! He's got a very talented brother as well - check out Charlie Winston on YouTube. [ Reply ]
parnoldo Jan 25, 2012 - 12:15	I like this one a lot. The piano, strings and acoustic guitar picking blend really nicely. Good driving on a lonely road tune. [ Reply ]
ad4tise Dec 24, 2011 - 18:35	Sounds llike a Tiny Tim want-to-be. I had enough of Tiny Tim when he walked through the tulips..... [ Reply ]

David sounds a little too much like a piano with lite electronica thrown in. While there's some of that with Tom, I find that the two elements blend together better. In David's case, it sounds too much like two elements thrown together. I like David, but at least based on this one song, I think Tom's sound is more natural and less forced. [ Reply ]

Sorry I thought of it. I had to reply because I like Paolo Nutini but I loathe this. This just feels like a "smooth jazz" station song, really overproduced. [ Reply ]

agkagk Feb 20, 2011 - 19:41	Just cranked it up. That must mean I like it. Just rated it 8. That means I'll have to go out and buy it. [ Reply ]

ziakut Nov 18, 2010 - 10:35	I like this. Has kind of a Tamba 4 Jazz feel in the middle section. [ Reply ]
