And song is so great that nobody seems to be disturbed by the fact that the main lead parts are played by folkies and not by MK's lead.

He is still playing along with the folkies and does have a solo of his own.

I feel this song could easily have come straight from the Get Lucky era.

I wonder when they will publish the whole movie.
I know the way I can see by the moonlight
Clear as the day
Now come on woman, come follow me home

Around the time that digital download will be available?

Doesn't bother me - great song/arrangement...

I've listened to this song several times and I have to say it's super!!  Beautiful sound and, even if it has a folk appeal, the sound of the guitar makes it wonderful, thanks also to a fast rhythm.  Absolutely gorgeous!!!  :D

I always come back to this masterpiece of a song.  Once I start listening I can hardly stop.  This is the MK sound I love so much.  It doesn't get any better.
This is all the heaven we've got right here where we are in our shangri-la.

Again we saw all three videos as one at the album launch in London. There were great snippets of the band talking and laughing together in between songs.

And a nice typical MK solo too with the trademark reasonably fast few notes in places!

The sound of the MK Sig Strat - quite beautiful!

That song is my perfect opener for a three-day-residence of MK at the Royal Albert Hall. One can dream, eh? ;-)
Btw, Mr. Gilmour will be there in October.

This song is just so incredibly good. It ticks boxes from almost every release since 1996 and onwards.

Agreed - it has a lot of energy and some very classic MK guitar work along with the violin which sounds straight out of his first few solo albums. The lyrics flow so well and are top-notch too. A great song and definitely one of my favorites from the new album and EP
