Come a little closer
There’s a cold wind blowing
We’re both a little tired
And the cracks are showing
Some have more, some have less
That’s just the way the story goes, I guess

But it’s all right, babe
I know the wolf is at the door
All right, babe
‘Cause we’ve been here before
We’ve been here before

Living isn’t easy on a wing of prayer
The road is rough but we always get there
You lean on me and I’ll lean on you
We’ll ride this out the way we always do

But it’s all right, babe
I know the wolf is at the door
All right, babe
‘Cause we’ve been here before
We’ve been here before

Our day will come
Our day in the sun

It’s all right, babe
I know the wolf is at the door
All right, babe
‘Cause we’ve been here before
We’ve been here before

It’s all right, babe
I know the wolf is at the door
All right, babe
‘Cause we’ve been here before
We’ve been here before

Interesting, but I prefer his work when he teamed up with Slim.
Horrible Cover! Nice song
holy shit, the segue between this and the prior Work Song (Hosier) was a piece of artistry!

both fantastic songs to boot!
I heard this and thought "Oh a Robert Plant song I haven't heard yet!"

Any Fatboy Slim available instead? 😁



Maybe this *is* Fatboy Slim... Just grown up and "filled out" a bit...
This song deserves my 9. Spare arrangement, tight vocal harmonies, Great rhythm section. Who could ask for more?
Okay, have to go 8 >> 9
Came to say the same as others. Where's the "slim" in the artist name... This is not great...
Found some information on the band! https://fatboy.se
this is a great tune! Vocal harmonies and lovely melody...

At times sounds like Roy Orbison and at other times Robert Plant



I'm hearing Chris Isaac

Not really my cup of tea, but quite a charming track nonetheless.
Great Tune.
It's not much but here is a link to the Swedish Wiki page...
Love it !

I hear Fran Healy
So, this is not Robert Plant? 
He might have a case for copyright or trademark infringement.

@Bill It is just amazing how relevant all these songs are particularly now!
Love it!

Lol.

Chris Izaak, meet PJ Harvey.

 
I honestly thought that it was those two on vocals for the first minute or so, then I realised that 'Chris' didn't have the usual heartbroken tremor in his voice. A nice number, mind, and Fatboy could bear watching in the future.
Alas, poor Plant.

I was thinking Robert Plant... albeit a richer, cleaner sound.

I'm afraid you violated your own advice by merely posting it. Luckily the troll appears to have already been slayed.

Yep, my first thought: Chris Isaac, but better :)
Yeah I thought it WAS Roy.

'calle01' is a troll and should be ignored.
It is UNAVOIDABLE that you play "Name That Tune" on RP- I always pick "in 2 notes..." I called this one as Creedence "Run Through The Jungle" from Cosmo's Factory.

Definitely a Roy Orbison vibe going on here.

 
Yeah—almost, but not quite.

Freaky album cover! Good song though...
The harmonies and blending of the voices is quite lovely (to my ears, at least).

I came to say exactly the same thing.


Absolutely love this song!  Creative writing with a very interesting harmony part.
Cringe-inducing vocals.
Always great to hear something new to my ears. While this is nothing special (to me) its great Bill continues to expose us all to new music. 
Sure sounds like Rodney Crowell.
sounds like Cock Robin
This is really good!
