Title: David Gray
Post by: neos on May 17, 2003, 08:47:41 am

This singer/songwriter from Manchester became rather popular in Europe after the release of his 4th album White Ladder. He has released 7 albums to date: A Century Ends, Flesh, Sell, Sell, Sell, White Ladder, The EPs 92-94, Lost Songs and his latest record, out since October '02, A New Day At Midnight. He's now in New Zealand on tour, but will be touring the US later this year. He's really worth checking out, esp songs like

Babylon
Please Forgive Me
Sail Away
Say Hello Wave Goodbye
This Year's Love

Wow, this guy is more amazing than anyone could ever imagine. 'This Years' Love' is possibly one of my favourite songs ever written. Check him out because this man is seriously talented.

Did you know he has a song called Twilight?? It's on the Lost Songs CD, so I haven't heard it, but I've found the lyrics:

Wash the twilight from my head
Hanging on a brighter thread
Little darling, 'till I see you once again.

Tell the man to fill my cup
Honey I ain't gonna stop
Little darling, 'till I see you once again.

Pinch me if I'm dreaming
I'm some where I've never been-eh
You lead me by my hand into the flame
Just the rain now, goes pitter-pat
And the past, ahhh, what use is that?
Little darling, 'till I see you once again

My favourite is Sail Away... It's one of my fave songs ever too. White Ladder is also one of my fave albums, there isn't one song I don't like, it's such an amazing album. I still have to find Sell Sell Sell, Flesh, A Century Ends & Lost Songs, though The EPs has some songs from those cds, I can't wait to hear the rest.

Nope, I haven't seen the vid, where have you seen it?? Be Mine is probably my fave song from ANDAM along with Caroline, it's such a great song, I'm happy it's out as a single (even if it doesn't make a difference here cos they hardly ever play DG!)
