Final version Day 28 Anyone else still writing songs? this is the result of trying to listen to too many mixes in one day. Sometimes it's just easier to record something else.

Another example of your perfect vocal performance for the material. Another gem off this album (well, the whole thing is quite a gem, but that's another story).
