Wow. I hadn’t really made my mind up about Villagers to be honest – but that has swayed me. Amazing performance…
Wow. 100 times better than the album version, just incredible. Jools looked stunned there at the end.
Class!

Fears Sold – and how well it was done.
The lyrics are very evocative, poetic & visual
He’s a talent

Video coming soon.
over the weekend = couple of weeks ago
Much appreciated adnans, I’ll check out those recordings asap (when out of work)
was undecided about villagers but this is certainly hair raising stuff which all good music should be.well done ! though think hes better without the band, they kind of bland it out and make it too generic.
