This is one of the most beautiful songs I've ever experienced. I've listened to it dozens of times and it never fails to absolutely crush me. There really is no other single piece of music that moves me as deeply and emotionally. Thank you Douglas and thanks to June Tabor for this achingly beautiful song.
A shame that people don't know this song, it's long been a favorite of mine. An exquisite melody, superb arrangement and a devastatingly honest performance from June. It undoes me every time.
One of my all time favourite songs from one of my all time favourite artist. Wish June Tabor was a household name i Britain. Many thanks from Bergen, Norway.
"June Tabor is the greatest living interpreter of song. I learn a lot from her music; those sparse but profound arrangements underlying these beautiful thick melodies and a pure, unhurried delivery. Her recording of Les Barker’s song “Sudden Waves” is one of the most becalming, beautiful things I know. Whenever I hear it it leaves me breathless and immobilised. I wrote a song a few years ago and, rather arrogantly perhaps, was going to offer it to June Tabor but I never did". Patrick Walker, 40 Watt Sun
