I just love this song — it feels like a cozy pair of slippers, just nice.  9 —->10

Just checked out the Glen Campbell version of this song per the recommendation of a couple RP listeners below. Good stuff. BillG could add the Campbell version to the playlist for one of those "and now for something completely different" moments.

Yeah, I remember their cover of this song had so much more energy to it and the drumming was killer.

Really amusing set of fanboy comments on the Travis website regarding Campbell's excellent cover. Especially the outrage over banjo in the arrangement, as if the instrument was not used in this recording.

Nice song.

Actually I would reach for George Harrison first.    Or the Eagles for that matter.  Nice pop tune.  Gorgeous.

Another interesting Scottish band but I hate this song. Prefer "Drift Wood", "Turn" and of course "Why Does It Always Rain On Me" from the first album.

Travis is one of those bands who's music I either really like or strongly dislike. This, happily is one of the songs that I like a lot.

Um, decent music aside, those are some flippin' big trees!

We certainly don't have anything like that here in the high desert of Central Oregon. Big pine trees, though.
