      Yep, I second that, I have been a Lucky Man ever since I started to listen to his music years ago, and many people still think he's nothing special. I tell you, to me it's not a big deal if anyone thinks any less of him, Richard himself said that some people will think his stuff is great, some think its shit, and he accepts that wholeheartedly. The people will however openly appreciate him as a genius many years from now, albeit falsely in many cases (which is a situation that does not befit him) but at the moment, Lucky are we who could already love his stuff, and fools are they who think he is nothing special just because the mass media isn't supporting him.

    Please, play a song for the lovers, tonight
    Don't wanna wait
    Lord I've been waiting all my life but I'm too late again

    Can't you see

    I ain't Got a Ticket for this ride but I will

    Please play a song for the Lovers, tonight
    Can't stop looking back no no
    One more for the lovers
    Oh brother won't you lend a hand
    I'm alone in a room and I'm waiting for love

      It’s so good that if this was a studio recording for a final track you wouldn’t need another take, except you might not want bleed from the acoustic guitar. Ashcroft seems a bit underrated to me.

    I keep coming back to this and read some comments below and agree that sometimes less is more. So long as you have a melody and amazing lyrics that's emotive and engaging, you can captivate any audience. Richard Ashcroft does this. Another lyricist that's superior to many songwriters is Steve Kilbey of The Church. Bless those that have something to sing about.
