This was the first track i demo'd for this year's RPM but i just got round to tidying it up and adding the third verse. A bit of a feel good record!

Dang, everyone except Rob (and Laura) (and me) liked the previous version! (Cupid's Own Knife) Only i did this with the lyrics so maybe one can be a bonus track ... aargghh ... why didn't i write a *different* song?

It was quite a lucky mindgame in that case, since you ended up with two very worthy tracks as a result...although I'm sure you'd have preferred more convenient timing (like NOT when you're trying to finish up an album with a looming deadline.)

i just went and re-read what you wrote at RPM, Rob/Laura and I must apologise - you actually said you like it - i didn't though, so i re-recorded, but then it felt like me against the world lol ANd now guess what - i listened to the first one again and it sounds OK to me too. Aaaarrggghhh again. :-) Weird how my mind plays tricks on me

Ok, to set the record straight: I didn't dislike the previous version...sorry if I made it sound like that. I certainly didn't mean to push you to rerecord... THAT SAID, I much prefer this version. Great stuff. (Great...I still sound like a complete jerk!) :)

This track works so well! Sort-of reminds me a little of Johnny Cash (and that's a good thing!)

This is a bonus track as it didn't make the album For those of you who know my stuff - does this sound like it works? or is it too much like filler - the vocals are effected, there's a drum loop - the guitar is just chopped out of a jam - i…

I like the panning in this one separating the guitar parts.

Great song. The guitars have a nice Spanish vibe, which I like.
