The opening lyrics make me think of the priest from fleabag

Recorded with background noises, somehow better then the album version…

Now I really want to go to that Pizzeria in Buenos Aires!

Autobiographic!

Argentina 🇦🇷

cant believe this guy (wonderfully) played einstein

Not forgotten! Still in our hearts.

I miss his tunes

He has a gifted voice.

where can I get his music transcribed for piano?

He’s the 5 th Beatle they say …. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️Love love HARRY!!

I completely completely agree. Harry’s voice is once ever beautiful voice! Noooo one compares

Love this!

pure class

Lyrics: They're taking pictures of the man from God I hope his cassock's clean The burden of being a holy fella's Your halo'd better gleam, better gleam What of all those wayward priests? The ones who like to drink Do you suppose they'd swap their blood for wine Like you swapped yours for ink, for ink You wrote me oh-so-many letters And all of them seemed true Promises look good on paper Especially from you, from you The weight of all those willing words I carried all alone You wouldn't put your pen to bed When we hadn't found our own, our own Your sentences rose high at night And circled round my head The circle's since been broken Like the priest before me is breaking bread I'm being asked to drink the blood of Christ And soon I'll eat his flesh I'm alone again before the altar Shedding all my old regrets The last of which I'll tell you now As it flies down the sink I never knew a part of you You didn't set in ink, in ink The letters that you left behind No longer shall I read Your blood's between the pages And I can't stand to see you bleed And I'll soon forget what was never there Your words are ash and dust All that's left is the song I've sung The breath I've taken and the one I must If you're born with a love for the wrote and the writ People of letters, your warning stands clear: Pay heed to your heart and not to your wit Don't say in a letter what you can't in my ear

I'm glad he fucks the riff up as well 😅

Thats Buenos Aires, Argentina the capital of tango

Shoutout to 4lung

I've listened a thousand times. Thanks Johnny ❤

I think when he makes both picking mistakes at 1:54 & 1:59 they were intentional errors, kinda like problems found within the church.

Cool song

12 years later and it's still new in my heart like when I heard it first, and the memories attached to it seem to be frozen in time as well <3

Thank you !

Thank you. Crying rn....😭 She wouldn't want that. But my heart, man....😟 It's breaking. Always does, when I think about her. Earth angel.🙏🔥❤️✨

This guy should write the detectorists soundtrack

RIP Harry.

You know you are an exceptional lyricist when you are quoted fully, by name, in a different (amazing) song by a completely different artist.

Hace 12 años, acá a cuatro cuadras de casa.

Just beautiful

"You wrote me oh so many letters, and all of them seemed true, Promises look good on paper, especially from you, from you..."

A classic.. <3

Que linda Argentina, y que buena musica

A cycle of failing fatherhood in the world

Harry's acoustic performance of this tragic, wonderful song, is so much better than this version. Stripped of the arrangement and slowed down, it is an extremely powerful example of this man's incredible talent and better show cases his brilliant voice.

One of the most beautiful voices I've ever heard, without a doubt

One moment that I connected with my father was when he started singing this song and I joined in. He looked...happy.

ruclips.net/video/hxMP-kmiMO4/видео.html sorry for spam My track "Enter the Void"

I've listened to this an unreasonable number of times

Sometimes was known as The American Beatle - no wonder.

johnny flynn is one of the most underrated! ruclips.net/video/Mo-SfwK7nTU/видео.html genius!!!

Buenos Aires, Argentina !!!!

I am so pissed that I JUST discovered this man! What a gifted human being! I'm loving discovering his music and acting, though!

Don't say in a letter what you can't in my ear

I miss her music 😔
