oh yeah!!! Great song and loving that chord progression. Beautiful with all the changes ...loving it. How did you do all this in such a short time period? Wow, wow, wow.

Another beautiful poetic song with such an excellent expressive performance. Love it!

I must take this train after hearing this song! What a great song :)....deserves a second comment.

Absolutely beautiful! Warm and an interesting narrative :). Loving it!

Great story line - has a true troubadour feel about it! Love it - kind of dark. I have had the pleasure of a Chelsea bun here in Canada - yup, extremely yummy. Very creative song. I'm listening to a great concert of all your songs ...loving it.

holy cow......I hadn't heard this one before! Gorgeous!!! That Fender did it's job well. Absolutely love this. I think this one is perfect as an acoustic version.

Wow!!! This song did not age ....it is gorgeous. Truly beautiful and I love the complexity of the melody and how it moves about. I imagined hearing it live at a concert (I'd be in the front row!).

I think I dated this one. I like the guitar lick. The song really moves along well.

I can feel that being a great Rockin' song .....

That's a great song in the making ......

A little bit of magic ...

Very good ..... afraid the 80's are so far away for me ..... old age ;)

Top notch my friend ....

An enjoyable listen, and a little different.

This is beautiful.

Poignant, affecting. Something everyone can relate to. I'm glad you were able to revisit this old song, and I also hope recording it was cathartic.

First time hearing your stuff. After the first song, I love your writing. I'll be listening through what you have posted for the rest of the day! Completely agree with RPM. I do enjoy it, however this year, my focus was more on songwriting and having fun. Production took a back seat.

Funny I don’t get stalker vibes but I can see if one knew the backstory that might be the outcome. Another great piece of writing!!

Sparse and beautiful

This is a good listen.

I'm with witzelsucht on this, "Good as is". Classic Reg.

Cool stripped back version.

Mrs R has pointed out that she knows of at least two other Londons... and that it might not be obvious I mean London UK!

Like it. Love this: "stage is dusty / my strings are getting rusty". We had to look up corn hole, though, doesn't get played a lot in South London...

I started with the comment "allotropic"... but having listened to it, and let it wash over me, that seems a bit flippant now...

I love this version.

LOVE those sounds.

Oh yeah, smooth sounds.

And this gives me some release - but not loads! I was going to ask if it's an ebow, but it's not is it? Sounds like a real bow?

I find this one a slightly more challenging listen!

This one follows Hopey Changey really well

I listened to these the other day while I was doing something else... I forgot to come back and comment. This is a gorgeous sound.

Wow. Amazing track. Starts all fairytale-like, then it evolves into something entirely different - can't make my mind up whether it's threatening or "hey let's party whether you like it or not"... but it's certainly insistent... And then I'm back home to fairytale land... but I feel slightly changed and not quite the innocent I was before... The tinkly little theme that I enticed me earlier sounds a little more sinister now.

Cool chorus on this one... but you're right there's something... It really shines later on after the bridge- I like the interaction between the vocal, bass and guitar - really bounces. But earlier it doesn't have the same effect and I can't really spot the difference - except the later one is surrounded by instrumental and maybe feels looser? The earlier ones feel a bit "held back" and "correct", and they don't draw attention to themselves like the later one. They also leads straight into and out of a verse section that doesn't sound a lot different - maybe you're right, maybe volume? Maybe take the drums down on the sung verses? Something to make the chorus stick out more? But yeah, this is a cool one.

Foot-tapping and exotic. Loving those p90 vibes.

Oh yeah, nice one.

Aha! Can't beat a falling bass line (I'm working on several things at the moment, and they've all got falling bass lines) ... Nice one, like it.

Intriguing sounds, quite a ride.

I agree with Guest (47.189.109.204) - "you're not done with this one" - I think there's another version, somewhere between the original and this one. It's a gorgeous song.

And a new verse! I listened to all three versions again - this is the one (which is probably a good thing, as it's the latest!!)
