This song got me through divorce 4 years ago. Every time I listen to it I am reminded of that loneliness, walking back in the evening from work to an empty small apartment in a big city. After depression settled in, this song pulled me up from the darkness. I like it, but again, I am biased.

This guy keeps putting out great work. I'm amazed he's not a bigger name. Great songwriting, lyrics and a voice with so much soul and feel that he puts so many contemporaries to shame.

WOW, its nice to see RP draws sound engineers and record producers as critiquing listeners!  Jeez, I am sure everything they did when recording this was done on purpose. Michael has been nominated for everything possible in the UK it seems, the Brit Awards, MTV Europe awards, BBC Music awards. You don't earn those by putting out JANKY music. Ease up. 
Posted 2 years ago by tripp1    [ Reply ]
Horrible producer choices/mixing job on this. Having the distorted guitar solo mashed in at the same volume & sound space as the strings -- whole part of the song is mushy & grating -- a disservice to the strings as well as the solo.

I love this song and I am not a fan of the plate reverb used on the snare… its too close in frequency to the one on his voice and I feel it detracts from his voice.

My comment isn't  about this being meant as a feature or a flaw - you think an artist or producer would intentionally 'flaw' something?  - It's about what I find appealing or not.

While listening to this I checked to make sure audio was still set to FLAC.  This recording sounds to me as though it were lower resolution.  It has kind of a gritty sound, which I suspect is completely intentional.

Mr. Kiwanuka is one of the best new artists. He projects absolutely impressive judgment and advice for people. His music is heart-rending. I was amazed the first song I heard, he's got his finger on the pulse.

Exactly, I just came here to point that out, but u did it already. Besides that, it is in very similar tune with his other famous song "Cold little heart".

I saw him live in Chicago for the first time right before Covid shut everything down.  Amazing show.  So funny to think back on that night and how great of a night it was with friends even though it was so packed that you couldn't really move around easily.  Dumb Pandemic.

Shameful to still only have four Kiwanuka cuts on RP, including only one from the OUTSTANDING self-titled Kiwanuka album.

The chord progression during the verses (Gm-F-Cm-Gm) is quite similar to the one of Kathleen Edwards's Goodnight California (Gm-F-Cm-Eb). I like it a lot!

I wish they would have toned down the background chant when the guitar solo comes in. It kind of muffles it, and I think it would have been much more dynamic...

I think the repetitive chorus lends a kind of a semi -gregorian chant trance. Possibly this was a feature, not a flaw.

 That doesn't  make it likeable,nor a feature, in the ears of some people, Gregorian-like, or not. And I believe the Gregorian reference is a looooooong stretch.

I just watched Big Little Lies on HBO this past week or two... this is the theme song for the title sequence.

The imagery of the show now comes to mind when I hear this. 
 
Actually the song they used was Cold Little Heart from this same album. A really great album. I don't begrudge either for their association- it helped expose this album, and the show had tons of great music in it. Special props to Martha Wainwright's Bloody Motherfucking Asshole!
