Perhaps that means there will be another CD sooner than we think. :-) Also, this song we are calling "funeral song" may actually be a birthday or anniversary song, seeing as the lyrics were to the effect of "this is not a funeral, just the passing of another year." The passing of another year implies some yearly celebration (?) and he was doing it "for a friend."

Love both 'new' songs on EP. 'Let it be me' is beautiful. Now if someone would sing it to me I would be in heaven ... did ask for it at Cardiff but without success. Just wish that it could be tweaked so it could be sung sensibly from female perspective. 'Get to Me' has really intriguing lyrics - mixture of vulnerability, irritation and paranoia. Can understand why neither were included on What is love for - both have quite a different musical feel to the other tracks but delighted that JC has shared them with us.

Great song. And maybe I mis-remembered, but I think the bridge section (aka "the middle eight") on his live version of As Long As You Don't Come Back was completely different than the recorded version. - --- Porl wrote: > Anyone detect him doing "The Way That It Falls" at > these acoustic gigs?
