Title: Redbud Tree be aired on July 9th
Post by: jbaent on July 05, 2012, 09:25:48 AM
From Spanish City:

At least in Spanish radios, "Redbud Tree" will be aired on July 9th.

On monday we will have the chance to listen to the first single from Privateering.

I hope it will be uploaded to the official site too, as happened with Get Lucky  :)

I am listening to the radio now... Hoping. It seems that several Norwegian radio stations have started to play it this week. I'll let you know as soon as I know something. I don't know if it is released for download or only for radio...

I don't think it will officially be released the next days. It is probably only for radio promo. Remember Border Reiver? That was played on some stations, too, but we never had a "real" release...

But hopefully we will have recording of it soon?

The song was broadcasted this day at this time:

04.07.2012. - 11:33 - Mark Knopfler - Redbud Tree

Where I am now I cant search it further, I hope some of you can  ;)

Ha ha, jbaent, I did almost the same back in 1996! I was in Munich that day and heard that the new single "Darling Pretty" was about to be played at the station "Bayern 3" or something. I had a lot of plans for that day but stayed inside and listened to that station THE WHOLE DAY (without success)...

Checking the tracklisting, "Redbud Tree" was only played this day

04.07.2012. - 11:33 - Mark Knopfler - Redbud Tree

From that day to now... nothing.

I also hope that someone could record the song from any Spanish radio, I´ll be working and wont be able to listen to the radio at least until the evening  :(

I dont know which radio will play it, but maybe some of these, as they play "modern music"

I told you I was practicing my croatian yesterday evening.
I found nothing in their site. I hope I'm wrong.
Most of the podcasts are news, interviews, ... but my understanding of croatian is too basic to fully enjoy that kind of programs.
There's some music also, but not the expected time range. :'(

Who knows , maybe today ? :)

A spanish fan sent an e-mail to Spanish City telling that the song was sounding at that momment but I arrived late...

He commented that it sounds a bit like The Mans Too Strong style of song, with a big presence of the Stratocaster, he didnt listened to the Ruth Moody voice, probably because of the quality of the broadcast.

He was listening to that webradio at work so he couldnt recorded it.

I hope someone recorded it  :(

Yes, I like the solo too :) It is pretty simple, but finally "clear MK sound" is here again. And the pedal steel reminds me the OES album... Anyway, this edited version it way too short... I am curious what
Title: Re: Redbud Tree be aired on July 9th

By the way, it is interesting, the beginning of the song sounds like clear country style, but the melody itself is rather "scottish"...nice folky tune, anyway :)

Not really a song that grows on you.  Loved it from the first listen!  Great stuff here, let's hope this is a sign of things to come.

Back to the song itself and MK plays and sings beautifully on it while PF on pedal steel adds something special to the feel of it imo.  Can't wait to hear it performed live, perhaps some promo or on the Dylan thing.  Now back for another listen! :P

Thanks Tunnel85. ;)

I stand corrected if this is wrong.

Hunted down I came upon
A place of ferns and grass
Gathered to a redbud tree
And now there footsteps pass
Where i crouch and dread
Discovery my certain death
Something? reaching for my hand
As i suspend my breath

Redbud tree shelter me shelter me etc

Those days of fear are gone
Yet i am pledged to her
As to my  only one
My lovely protector
Redbud tree shelter me etc

I like the harmonium on it - the song doesn't sound as polished as some Get Lucky tracks or as Restless Farewell for example. On that one Paul Franklin's addition sounds somewhat too much, with a country touch. But on Redbud Tree, Paul Franklin adds the best atmospheric thing as in his best times with Dire Straits or MK solo. Phantastic song really!

Up for 30 minutes now this morning and already listened to it 3 times!  :disbelief

After three times listening: I must say that this song is "O.K.". It does not blow me away but the crystal-clear solo guitar raises the level. Maybe we're gonna have a longer version on the album with a nice outro.

So, MK still follows his folky, laid back path that he started after the STP-album. I hope there's more stuff to come that would be more agressive, fresher and rockier.

Hello,

Is it possible to get a pm to listen to the radio edit of the song ?
Thanks :)

Mixed feelings about the song. It's good, but it's a little alarming that a song like this is a first single. Are we to await an album made out of 20 "Get Lucky Bonus CD" songs?

I have similar feeling, BUT... remember Kill to get crimson? The first single was True love will never fade and it turned to be one of the least good songs from the album... :)

That was my feeling... Redbud Tree sounds kind of "Time in the sun" to me. Like a not very evolved song, like a demo with not much work on it.

But I like it.

It has also some parts that remind me about Remembrance Day.

The more I listen to this song, the more I feel that the verses we are hearing are not the first ones - I think there are more verses prior to these to explain the reasons why he is hiding, and from whom.   I think there is much more to come when we hear the official version.   I hope I'm correct, or else it doesn't seem a complete song imo.   I like it a lot otherwise.   :)

You're right.
I's obvious the last part of the song was edited and I have great hopes for a wonderful extended live version but I never thought there was a first part missing.

I agree.  There seems to be a verse missing about a faggot or something that they couldn't play on the radio! ;D

Seriously though, it is a very short song (lyrically) as it stands and seems to finish a little abruptly.  Still love it though!

I agree with that it has a little resemblance with Time In The Sun. But while I hate that one, I really love Redbud Tree. So it is obviously about the details.
It is short yes, but it has a total other quality than the three (crap) bonus songs of the Get Lucky box.

I am sure between the first verse and the solo has to be another verse.  Maybe Ruth Moody is singing the complete verse (from the point of view of the Lady if there is one...) like Mark did with Van Morrison or James Taylor... I think Guy could really do us the favour and tell us the track lengths....

Wow, I found this song in my inbox last night after coming home from a schlager concert - now that was a great surprise! Have listened to it a couple of times now. I love it but my first thought was: Again nothing really new. Instrumentation, sound, melody - all very familiar. And there is that Hank Marvin guitar again, although it doesn't sound that bad like on KTGC where he really really overdid it  :o

Now, time to take a closer look on the lyrics.

Very curious to hear the other tunes now, hoping for some little uptempto stuff a la Border Reiver.

In my opinion, this song is between Camerado and How Long... but i would like to hear the full version.
Is it in this song that Ruth Moody is supposed to sing? So her part of the song must have been dropped for the radio edit.

Hi everyone,

I hate to ask this, as it will appear as though I've only registered for this reason, but I have been reading the forum on an off for several years, and generally just lurk in the background, reading from afar. Does anyone know of a live stream of Redbud Tree? I haven't heard it yet, but you obviously all think it's good!

It really strikes me as amazing that UK radio stations have not been given this to play, when Mark is a UK citizen. And the recording industry wonder why they're having problems.......!

Thanks for any replies.

At first, it has been said - nobody can upload official material as a link. Maybe, "Please, could you send me PM too" would be enough, for the next time, I guess you would get the song much faster.
So anyone who want to hear it should ask and get it? What is the difference with it being uploaded to some file sharing site?
I see the only difference, in the latter case people don't have to register here just to beg for the song.
I'm really sorry, but it's just the way it looks. And I'm sure that I'm not the only one who sees it that way.

Can someone PM me the link also ? Why can't just post anyways since its on the Radio ?
You can't do that ! Nobody here will ever upload official.  
If it's on the radio : listen to the radio or use in private a private recording.
Please-
This is our philosophy.
Let me add some depth to your "philosophy":
"Wanna hear the song? I knoooow you've just regged for the song, you twerp! No!! You'll wait til september, my boy, and buy the album. But we will listen NOW and FREE and as many times as we want. This is our philosophy and we're proud of it!!!"
Well... What can I say... Guys, I hope that you know what such people deserve... Now I wish you sunny skies
and happiness wherever you may go.
I won't tell you the whole story but you should thank marbletown for his contribution. Believe me.

dannyjun has sent the song to me. Thank you, now I also believe that you're nice person, not like me. I won't listen it without being able to upload it. I'd rather wait for public release in any form.
The point is that teasing people is not nice. That's what I wanted to say.

It's a good song , it's really grown on me after a few listens .
I definetely think there are a couple of minutes missing from this version- there's more to it.
I can see , as mentioned earlier little similarities to Camarado and a few others.
So far we've heard 4 songs(3 live albeit) from the album and hopefully most on the new album are of similar quality .

Thanks to the guy's involved for getting this snippet .

Hey Mossguitar, I was very interested in your judgement because I remember a lot of your knowledgeable musical statements in the last months/years. I was wondering what the music geeks (and guitarists) around here say about this song. Thanks for your short review!   :) I share your opinion about the Get Lucky comparison by the way. I like that album a lot, but this song is very promising for the way of music I expect MK to do for a long time...

It is a bit of a tease. I was wondering myself why we don't just post a link up, but by keeping it to PMs at least it limits the spam!

I bet everyone here who has bothered to join and 'beg' for Redbud will be buying the CD in September, I can't see any ethical probs with an early listen to a radio broadcast?
I wouldn't make that bet if the link was available to the whole net without joining.

The whole point about this thing is that the original uploader is doing this for the fans and not for the sake of scoring some likes or views or any other abstract social web points.

I know it's the most hypocritical thing in the world but for the broad fanbase it's been sacred since forever.

Keep calm and steady folks! :)

It's as easy as this, in this community we have the rule not to upload official stuff. Fanmade DVD's or CD's is fine, but no things like this. We all are very happy someone made this available. When I see all the new members in the last few days a lot of people are interested in it.

We have another rule in this forum and that is that we are polite to each other. You can disagree but always stay polite.
That's why we make the difference sometimes:
"Can someone PM me" sounds like demanding.
"I heard some of you have this recording, does someone wants to PM to me, it would make me happy" sounds much more friendly and the chance someone actually will send it is much higher.

I hope all the newbees are happy to be here and I hope they will be involved in the discussions over here as well.

I hope everyone now understand it and I hope we will have a lot of great discussion here with all of you.

Its not released yet then its not official. If you think different then you've already started unauthorized distribution.
You just want to decide who's gonna get the song and whos not. Will your day be ruined if anyone who want be able to freely listen to the song? This is called nice community? Oh please...

It's really not 'begging' its just a way of NOT having an open link on the net - probably will not last. But like I said, anyone bothering to follow this topic, join AMIT and ask for the song, is obviously nerdy about Knopfler enough to buy the CD anyway, guaranteed!

Why is the red bud tree called the Judas tree?

The story involves both the dogwood tree and the redbud tree, both of which bloom in Spring right around Easter.

The story goes like this:
The dogwood trees came to Jesus after the resurrection, and made a request - Since the wood that was used to crucify our Lord was from the dogwood, they requested that they no longer grow tall enough or strong enough to be used for timber for this purpose.

The Lord agreed, and since that time, the dogwood has grown short in stature, with small limbs, unsuitable to be used in major lumber projects.

Also, because of the request, the Lord also caused beautiful white crosses to bloom on the tree, with a reddish spot of blood in every bloom, and a tiny crown of thorns at the center of the blossom.

The redbud trees came and asked the Lord a favor as well. Since the great traitor Judas Iscariot had hung himself on this tree, they asked the Lord to ensure that never happened again.

The Lord agreed. Henceforth, all redbud trees have grown short in stature, with limbs thin and low to the ground, unsuitable for hangings.

Also, because of the request, the Lord also caused crimson blooms to burst out along the branches like rivulets of blood, to remind one of the blood Christ shed for the sins of the world, and the innocent blood betrayed by Judas. And the leaves henceforth would grow in the shape of hearts, to remind all who look of the endless and boundless love of God for our lost race.

It's not illegal to listen, but it's an official recording (edited recording). Our policy is not to upload official stuff, because of the reason that we don't have the copyrights  , by the way if you do it it will be banned from a lot of sites like youtube. I think for all fans it's a good way too spread it this way. People will find their way to here. Everyone can enjoy listening and the people who make the effort to sign in here must be the fans who also buy the CD.

It has a haunting atmosphere similar to Camerado in a way. I really like transition to a major chord in the chorus in place where you would normally expect a minor. Brilliant songwriting again :)

I really agree! I love that haunting atmosphere Mark has created in the wonderful Redbud Tree, in the same way he did in Camerado... The guitarplaying reminds me of his earliest days, and the lyrics, when you think about the story behind, is, as always, stunning. I love this kind of songwriting, when it's based on stories and characters, because Mark manage to recreate the feeling and atmosphere. I'd say the guitar solo is quite "long" compared to what we have had on the last records, which of course is great. Whether the original song is longer or not is hard to say, but it feels a bit short. Only one and a half verse, no bridge and no outro solo. It could go on for a couple of minutes I suppose... However, if that is the case, I got to say that I really don't see the point in, or like, radio edits. It's like a TV channel only screening the first 2/3 of a movie, or a gallery presenting only half of da Vinci's Mona Lisa. That never happens... Music is art, and I believe that a song has a beginning and and end for a reason. You can't just take out a verse or a solo, just to play commercials instead. It's not fair against the artist... The again, radio edit or not, I love Redbud Tree, and I've got to say that this is very promising for what we will get in September, not to say live in 2013 8)

Yes, I've read somewere about his inspiration from books reading.

For example, from wikipedia:
"Sailing to Philadelphia is the second solo album by Mark Knopfler, released on 26 September 2000. The title track is drawn from Thomas Pynchon's novel about Charles Mason and Jeremiah Dixon, the two English surveyors who established the border between Pennsylvania and Maryland, Delaware and Virginia in the 1760s."

And it makes sense to me. If somebody sees something else, different meaning then I'd like to hear it.

I am listening right now at Youtube to the new song and see 608 people have been listening. As so many, I like this song as well!  ;D

Just had a listen and I can honestly say it is such a great song already. Marks vocals just get better and better. We never have to really comment on his songwriting capabilities as it's always of the highest order. Stuck my headphones on and the song really was so awesome. The guitar tone is exquisite and the melody top notch again.... WOW. Can't wait to hear the full song.

I did the same thing several times today and love it more and more. I think my first idea (about a slave hunted down) is wrong - I go now for the idea that it might be a song about desertion from a civil war soldier who manages to hide under the Redbud Tree... 

I imagined the scenery pretty clear, which is obviously a big compliment for these lyrics, when they are able to get my imagination going...  ;D The first verse is probably set in nighttime when it's dark (footsteps pass). Then the second verse (which we will get most probably with the album version!  ;D ;D) will start with the sunset of the new morning, when THE lady finds and saves him and takes him with her to her house...
Ok, I stop here, but why not speculate a little bit...

I think there was no woman involved in this one.  ;D
I think first verse is where he recalling memories and second one he still adresses that same tree as a talisman which once saved his life.

It's already on Youtube now and he/she copied the lyrics obviously from this forum. (the other thread)  :-\

And the Redbud tree is called the Judas tree.

Oh the irony...

Pretty ironic indeed  :o
And also dangerous for next things that might be available. There's a chance that the very nice person who gave this to us won't do this again or others who get their hands on stuff keep it for themselves.

I have no doubt he will share again, I believe he has some more cooking, but I wouldn't be suprised if the very next time he shares with another group of people.
Like those who like rain.  ;) ;D

It is supposed to be aired on european radios from today, at least that stands for Spain. Norway and Croatia are airing the song from last week, so I guess is question of time that all the european radios do it.

Universal Spain used to follow instructions from the central, so if it was approved to be aired from today in Spain, it must be the same for all Europe.

You can't do that ! Nobody here will ever upload official. 
If it's on the radio : listen to the radio or use in private a private recording.
Please-
This is our philosophy.
Let me add some depth to your "philosophy":
"Wanna hear the song? I knoooow you've just regged for the song, you twerp! No!! You'll wait til september, my boy, and buy the album. But we will listen NOW and FREE and as many times as we want. This is our philosophy and we're proud of it!!!"
Well... What can I say... Guys, I hope that you know what such people deserve... Now I wish you sunny skies
and happiness wherever you may go.
I won't tell you the whole story but you should thank marbletown for his contribution. Believe me.
 

I believe that such upload would not hurt anyone.
dannyjun has sent the song to me. Thank you, now I also believe that you're nice person, not like me. I won't listen it without being able to upload it. I'd rather wait for public release in any form.
The point is that teasing people is not nice. That's what I wanted to say.
no one here was teasing anyone, at all. People who had already received a copy after asking for it gently (the pm thing, you know) was telling his/her opinion of the song, nothing more or less.

The very first recording was in a middle of a radio program and there was some edition to get the song only.

Oh yeah... Start the radio streaming and push record button to capture with 64 kbs. Then look it up on "played" list, do simple math to figure out songs location and cut it out of a whole captured track. Lots of effort I say.
Anyone could do that. You'll probably laugh but even I could manage to do it if I wasn't so lazy.

You don't get the original raw Marbletown or Coyote but directly the 2010 powerful version.
Mark has found his definitive solo style, his definitive band and instruments and he can the focus on the melody.

I asked him also about uptempo songs and rocky songs, but he isn't responding anymore :-\

But, we know a bit more now about the album thanks to the Dutch Leo Blokhuis who interviewed Mark today and
listened to the complete Privateering album.

-So we have various styles:

Celtic
Blues
Folk
Dire-Straits-sounding-stuff

-The album is covered with wonderful calm melodics.

-The styles are mixed up over the 2 cd's (not ordered by genre)

-There are guitarsolo's, but not that much or that long.

-He likes Privateering more then Get Lucky

-He choose Miss you Blues as the nicest song.

Dutchessy, thank you for pestering him so heavily in all our names..  :lol  I was wondering how long he would be willing to answer. There were some others asking (about Dire Straits reunion and stuff). Nice to have these new information.

It seemed to me Leo was much more impressed when he came back as he was before about the idea to just fly to London and interview MK - it seems for him it was "just another job", and now he has learned that MK indeed is not just another rock star but something special... Funny how everybody really mentions how humble and modest he is...

And about Leo's album judgement, I also thought he has the view of the "common public listener" with the usual reservations. "Fan boys" (and girls) like us would probably have another, more detailled view after a first listen...

Thanks again, Dutchessy!  :D

Danny ,

I think it will be leaked late July. Someone always leaks it.

I know there are others that will not want to listen to it until the album's released, but if it was available , i would probably listen to it. We are different ,we will buy the album whether we get it early or not.(i,ve had all the albums since STP early)

I,ve been a fan for over 25yrs, since i was in my early teens ,seen DS,NHB and MK over 20 times, met him a couple of times etc. But still get excited when a new album's on the horizon.

So far the signs look good for this album.

Yes, that the point...

I mean, the fact that the fans would acces to a pre-release, a leak or something similar, its ilegal, it is, but it doesnt have any negative effect because we are all going to buy the record. The only effect would be that the fans that cant wait, will have the chance to listen to it before... and on release date will go and buy it.

If the point is that if its available online before release, people wont buy it, thats wrong. The people that is not going to buy it wont do it anyway, no matter if the cd is leaked or not. When its released they will manage to obtain an illegal copy in one way or the other, but the point here is that they are not potential buyers anyway.

People who is interested in buy records, will do it anyway, and we are fans, to us, buying it is MANDATORY...

That makes me recall about the GL incident where the people from mk.com put all the record online. Well, it was a mistake, but it didnt affected the sales, people who go to their site are fans, and all of them bought the record for sure.

Its not that I encourage piracy (I dont), is that many people are very wrong about many concepts around it.

And they never will... they dont have the iconic culture that we have about vinyls, cds etc etc, they dont care about covers, booklets etc etc because that generation grew up downloading mp3s...

It doesnt matter how much the record companies try to control it, they will find the way. Actually you can find everything in the net despite all the millions spent by the record companies during so much years in anticopy systems.

The only success was to achieve that many people consider that pay for downloads in Itunes, for example, is fine, even is not, if you pay 0'99 per song, for a 16 songs cd you are paying 16 dollars / euros etc for a mp3 file, while probably the physical cd price is less, and you get much more... And the funny thing is that the distribution of a physical cd is far expensive than a mp3...

Come on guys, we're not all that way! It's true that we download stuff online, but hey that's how I found DS,MK and many other great artists from the past. Now why do you think we're staying here day and night? Just to see what's in the box set! Personally I've traveled a really long way and spend quite a lot just to see a show from Mark! And I'm the happiest man alive now when I know that my favorite artist is going to release a new double album. Will I download the album if it leaks? Probably not. I didn't do it when GL leaked and I had waited 2 years for it. I waited and waited until I got the CD right in my hand, and then I played it. You surely know how this feels because you experienced it a lot during the pre-internet time, but I didn't, and it was really great. Now for as long as Mark breathes and makes music I'm going to buy anything he releases.

Yeah I agree to that! I know that we're not many, but the few young MK fans happily buy his albums and watch his shows, just because we enjoy the music and want Mark to continue. The other "young people" surely don't listen to music with values, that's why they don't care buying.

Really nice to meet you Maxx! I believe that ''older'' and younger people can learn a lot from each other. The mix on AMIT is great, people from many different countries come here to talk about MK and I think that is great. It doesn't matter how you look like, or how many money you have: Everybody is the same on AMIT and we share the same love for the man who makes the most beautiful music on earth.

I managed to buy and download a big collection of albums(all  the official ones) and live-stuff.
I realise I want to share my 'rare' stuff with you:
plectrums + drumsticks from 2001, photo+autograph from 2003, drumsticks from 2005, Mark pointing at me in Rotterdam 2005 after my second show in a row(did he recognice me?)(there's a picture of it, I believe it was taken by Henk Pestman, but I'm not sure)had a glimpse of him at a tour at the RAH back in 2010.

It refers to the "promo digital single " but after Guy's answer I believe we'll find the same version on the CD (although Guy is sometimes not well-informed about the decisions of the record company)

I must say i am really enjoying this MK era rather than the big mega stadium days of OES - even the first couple of albums with SOS, DTTWL, TOL etc - the sound although different is no less pleasing. Its just the right music MK should be creating at this time in his career.  

There is no doubt he is getting a better songwriter as each album passes...and the electric guitar although not as prominent as in earlier albums still makes its presence felt - you just know its a MK record and sound.  

A double album this time around is a nice touch so yeah - roll on September and Roll on the tour next year!  Ill be there and cant wait to absorb myself in the new album.  

MK voice - 10/10 - (albeit the quaility of these internet sites isnt 100%) - Guitar Playing - effortless and songwriting - perfect!

Thanks.

I like this song very much but I am afraid that it will be a bit like as for GL song on last tour : a big gamble to be there on one of the very few shows where Mark will perform it...

LOL @ ds1984

Already worried about if he will play Redbud Tree live or not? There is a double cd comming out! Maybe this Redbud Tree song is one of the worst songs on the album. ;-)

On the last album (GL) Mark left the best songs for the end. So why no wait till you heard the whole album before worrying which songs you would love to hear live?

I don't think in term of "best  song" because Mark simply did not select the best song of the GL album for the 2010 tour.

That said to date Redbud Tree is the best I heard from the next album, what I heard in 2011 left me with cold feet.

So I just find Redbud Tree being in the same vein as GL (the song).
And by experience sometime it is quite difficult to succeed to be able to get some of the song live: GL in 2010, Postcard in 2008, Our Shangri-La in 2005... Since 2001 I attend at least 10 shows on the european leg so I was lucky to be able to get all these at least once but next time I may not be able to do that much and I know that this will be utterly frustrating to hear that he played this or that and not to be there (such as on the early part of the 2010 US leg).

My sentiments exactly. That guitar solo has SO much potential....think of Hills Farmer Blues! The album version also felt lacking; sort of an appetizer for a live version. I don't know about you guys, but that song live had be literally jumping out of my seat!! Same with this song I hope.

Only two verses.   That does seem incomplete.   There are usually at least three.    What is there is very good.   I like the chorus very much.  And I thought the same thing as i listened:  an extended live solo would be fantastic, especially with McCusker in it.

During the last days I changed my mind: First I thought that this song is incomplete indeed, buy now I have come to the conclusion that this guitar solo is such a very important part of it, that it might replace another verse (if you know what I mean). It is not just the middle part that divides the two verses, it is an intregal part of the story. We use to expect a guitar solo just for a usual ingredient, ("does it have a solo? Cooool!)" But Mark always said that a solo or even guitar parts have to be there only when they fit to the song(writing). So what if the main part of the story is said with this solo?

And about the meaning of the song: Redbud Tree seems to have the same meaning as Six Blade Knife, it can indeed be or do anything to do, anything you want it to. Redbud Tree could also be a song about a guitar (REDbud Tree - well...) or songwriting and how the songs used to push or HUNT him in his early days and that they HAD to be uttered and that the guitar saved his life in a certain way... There are the "twiddly bits" in that solo  ... The only word that disturbs me here is "certain death"...   

Wrong thread I guess...

I really don't understand the thing with Ruth Moody... Her voice is beautiful, but where is it? I thought this would be like one of the duets on ATTR, where they would sing different parts and harmonies, but I can't hear her at all. What's the point in using great artists as background singers when they are drowned in the mix? For that, Mark could even have used me on the record, and that says it all :P

She's definitely there - I can hear her in the chorus.   

From Guy's forum a while ago:

Q:  Hi Guy, Did Ruth and Mark sing a duet? or did she sing backing vocals? Love the site, keep up the good work.

 Guy:  A bit of both actually, she was great

I remember Mark talking about "Are We In Trouble Now" just after Golden Heart was released and saying that Vince Gill's BV on that song made his own voice sound halfway good. - It was not apparent, to me anyway, that there were any backing vocals at all, but they obviously did make a very subtle difference to the sound.

Nope, Pixel, that's done.  ;)  We have had this discussion during the last three weeks at several "Privateering" threads, but the offical streaming on MKNews showed us that the song is complete. Also the lyrics that are now online show that, too. I also hoped for a longer version the first few days but I am happy now with this song.

It is not a but album, in fact on one song, it sounds as if robbie is trying to imitate MK. But not their best really. I understand that the sound is very distant to MK's, and so were most of his 80ies contributions.
