    There’s two types of people in this world:
    Those who heard this song for the first time and then listen to it over and over again. And the other people who haven’t heard it for the first time yet.

      I'm listening to it early in the morning and I'm listening to it after dark. I'm walking down the road listening to it on my phone in my pocket, different versions. Almost have it memorized. It gives me the feeling I had when I was 12, crashing through the gates of hell on my Honda z50 minitrail. I'm 67 now, a bit more beat down, but I still know the feeling. To ... ride

    This makes me think of my father, I wish he could have seen this, he passed in 2009. Born in 1944 with an abusive father, he dropped out of high school and ran away, his mom divorced and remarried a guy who (correctly) thought my father was trouble. At 17 he stole a car in LA and tried to drive it to Tennessee. He ran out of money in Oklahoma and called home, they convinced him to turn himself in and promised he wouldn't be prosecuted. haha. He was. When he got out he worked odd jobs; He told us the story about how he needed a vehicle so convinced his mom to buy him a bike, he found a Vincent Black Shadow for sale at a dealer. As they were starting paperwork she told the salesman "it is a nice little scooter" he told her "it is the world's fastest production motorcycle"...which killed the deal. He was a big guy with a beard, had issues with authority his whole life...but he was a loving father.

    'I think that was better?' All I can say is holy s*#t! Richard's original is gentle, melodic and sad. This is forceful, committed, triumphant. I never thought I'd find a version that I liked better than the original and I think I still haven't. But this is just unbelievably good and I'm really not sure, now, which I prefer. Outstanding, Sean; truly outstanding. Thank you from the bottom of a British heart.

      To answer your question. Its simple. Artists who do not sign with major labels get black listed from being seen. Think of the social media shit called shadow banning. But on a global scale. Just keep in mind tho, not all artist seek massive fame and fortune as many make a living with what they do.

    Richard Thompson sings this song from the view of the local minstrel fully aware of the beauty love, and pain of life found within the story. Sean Rowe brings the pain, the love, the power of James and Red Molly to life. Rough, raw, guttural and beautiful, most of all beautiful.

      @@ChrisLawton66 Yep. This song is all Richard, but Richard's sophisticated playing (can anyone reproduce his guitar fingering on this? I haven't seen it.) masks the pure human emotional story he tapped into. Sean as an artist embraces James, James isn't a sophisticated character and Sean embraces that emotional power, the humanity, of James. Raw. Powerful. Enduring.

      Richard’s original version (and pretty much every other rendition I’ve hears) is from a narrated outside perspective.
      Sean’s is the only one where it’s being sung as a first person account from the people “in” the song.
      It captures the driving, rough, raw and emotional feel perfectly.

    Superb. Always was a great song, but Sean's version puts it right into the mouth of young James. Not only the best version of this song I've heard, but one of the best songs I've ever heard.

    It's artists like you, Otis Gibbs, Sturgill Simpson, The War On Drugs, Waylon Speed, Run The Jewels, and so forth that makes listening to music enjoyable again. This is a fantastic cover. It's just as good as The Del McCoury Band cover, which I thought couldn't be touched. Excellent job Mr. Rowe.

    Sean, this cover makes me cry every time I listen to it. The amount of emotion that you put into this song is overwhelming. Everything about this song screams hope, love, desperation, and despair. The very things that make life LIFE. I've heard the original but you bring it to life in a whole new and raw way. It would be amazing if you could to a studio version of this.
