      He did fine, I had so many great times listening to him on mainstream radio in the back of the car when I was a child. I thank this guy for those memories. What he never did was sell out or water down his own personal way of being for success.

      That’s so so so spot on. I listened to this album on repeat as my brother and I drove through Scotland on a long golf trip. Now I listen and I am back in that car…just he and I again. Laughter and tears at the same time. How I miss him. DG was his favorite artist…just glad we got to see him live a couple of times together. I hope the memories and feelings you get from listening are as happy as the times we had when we did.

It has helped me deal with tremendous levels of emotional dismay, sadness and reparation for the want to leave the planet. I'm going to come back a lot stronger soon and I'll probably have to to put your music in the 'collection'. It's not not for wanting to listen, it's just moving on. I'm sure you get what I'm saying.

    This song got me through labouring on a south London building site. Man, that was a tough gig, glad I got into the BBC 2 years later!

    Truly one of the greatest albums. For me a reminder of a past life and love. Each song a time, place and feeling. And for that an album close to my heart.

    Great song off a great album, ground breaking musician using a computer, sampler, keyboard. Phil Hartnoll from Orbital gave him a small mixing desk and recommended the Roland Groovebox drum machine and the rest as they say is history.

    Back when this album came out I was working in a restaurant in Galway, Ireland. My fellow waiting staff played it incessantly. At the time I was young and a music snob and recoiled against anything that was then currently popular. Although for popular modern music I didn't think David Gray was terrible. However, because he was popular I couldn't properly open my ears to what I have over the past few years come to appreciate is one of the best popular music albums of all time. It is an exquisite work of aural beauty. As a lover of Soul music this album just oozes raw emotion. It is perfection.
