Bit of a strange topic this. I am having real difficulty working out who is singing lead vocals on this track. I keep changing my mind each time I hear it. Just wondering if anyone else had found this??? :?

Does this mean you can make it out in all the other songs? :D

On C sounds like Craig, but I can never be sure...

Is it just me or does anybody else find this a truly beautiful song. You get that strange feeling inside. :oops: It stands out in comparison to others on the album- growing each time you hear it. I can't help but laugh though that I'm describing a song with the line "the rats in the sewer" as beautiful! :lol:

Just barely stopped skipping it. But thank you for making me listen to it again Bryan.

Definately Craig. What was it Ginger said..."like eating dark Belgian chocolate. But less fattening!"
Gonna stop in the middle just to talk about the part that really matters

It's maybe because I know that area of Edinburgh pretty well. It brings back memories of drunken nights and trying to get a bus home at 4 in the morning so maybe it's just a personal thing. :D

I've loved this song ever since the first time I heard it but I don't really understand what it's about - can anybody help me here?

Also, the chords to this are in the 'N&R Chords' section.
The question does nay' matter,
The answer's ALWAYS AYE!!!!!

This is truly a beautiful song and like all their previous albums there is always one hidden gem.

my fav's would have to be, 'is there a god', 'sunshine on leith' & 'these arms of mine'
