I note that you consider it a "philosophical" song. The subtext in between the lines of the lyrics tells a very sad story - even if it isn't a story.<br /><br />I was disparinging of ever finding any modern music that appealed to me but a chance excursion into the byways of Youtube brought me the gates of Underfall Yard and the rest of the BBT cataogue. Great work - keep it up.<br />Andrewandygam77noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8440667673901774474.post-7137250707575408702013-04-16T08:44:39.886+01:002013-04-16T08:44:39.886+01:00I love this song.I love this song.Jumatate opalhttp://celelalteamintiri.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8440667673901774474.post-47921824458692751432013-03-28T19:34:59.724+00:002013-03-28T19:34:59.724+00:00Thank you for the kind words chaps.

You should play EE1&2 through in one go! That would be a treat!<br />CliveClivehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13363274147492794358noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8440667673901774474.post-74333112552322991012013-03-12T02:09:09.373+00:002013-03-12T02:09:09.373+00:00Hi Greg,

I also appreciated the insights.<br /><br />Was just listening to EE part 2 and really enjoying it, so I wanted to come by and express my gratitude to you and the rest of BBT for making such wonderful music. It is truly moving.<br /><br />You guys have leaped into the upper echelon, and are getting some much-deserved recognition for it. Congratulations! :)<br /><br />Best regards,<br />TylerTyler Stewartnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8440667673901774474.post-23845116651294755152013-03-01T21:12:06.055+00:002013-03-01T21:12:06.055+00:00Hi Greg,

A very big big thank you that it was delivered so quickly, as I live in Germany! I had one listen to it and it sounds fantastic. <br />Many greetings to England and keep on the great work! <br />Uwe.MatDnoreply@blogger.com
