    Almost 17 years ago, my boyfriend had to move to a different city. I was pregnant. Every time I’d visit him, I’d listen to this CD on the way home. Still hits me in the heart now, as my husband sleeps in our bed and I’ve just gotten our kids off to school.

      This album saved my sanity. I'd been violently mugged and would go to bed at night thinking about why it had to be me and would wake up first thing thinking about it too. For some reason this album got me past that. It's kinda cool that this album gives everyone good thoughts. *hug* I wish ya all the best

    I chose "Freedom" to be played at my only beloved Brother's funeral in 2003. I didn't realise it before his passing, he bought this Album by David Gray, and we listened to some songs together at his home in Brunswick. Caroline was one he said hey Sis, listen to the lyrics to Caroline. I wasn't thinking I would soon lose my beloved Brother, Lawrie. I love you every day Lawrie, your loving Dis, Judith xo

    Mate, I really wish you wrote then recorded this album in a similar tempo (BPM) as your White Ladder album.
    I used a website to split the tracks up so that your instruments and voice were isolated.
    I was left with 8 tracks from your Kangaroo song. I loaded each track into the DAW I own then muted each track except the drum loop.
    I changed the BPM so it roughly matched the tempo from Babylon. Then one by one I unmuted the other tracks including your vocals.
    It took me roughly 15 to 20 mins to get the vocals to sound like you and all I can say is wow.
    This song's amazing anyway but when the BPM is changed it sounds like a top 10 mate.
    When you're not doing anything and have some spare time give it a go you'll be shocked at just how great and relevant it sounds *today*

    Take your eyes off me
    There's nothing here to see
    Just trying to keep my head together
    As we make our vow
    Let us remember how
    There's nothing good that lasts forever
    Time out on the running boards
    We're running
    Through a world that's lost it's meaning
    Trying to find a way to love
    This running
    Ain't no kind of freedom
    Feel the touch of grief
    You stand in disbelief
    Can steal the earth from right beneath you
    And falling in so far
    They know just where you are
    Yea but there ain't no way to reach you
    Time out on the running boards
    We're running
    Through a world that's lost it's meaning
    Trying to find a way to love
    This running
    Ain't no kind of freedom
    Of freedom
    It's time to clean these boots
    Fold up these parachutes
    The word's goodbye
    But I can't say it
    The end is close at hand
    I think we understand
    There ain't no use trying to delay it
    Time out on the running boards
    We're running
    Through a world that lost it's meaning
    Trying to find a way to love
    This running
    Ain't no kind of freedom
    Freedom, freedom, freedom
    Time out on the running boards
    We're running
    Through a world that lost it's meaning
    Trying to find a way to love
    This running
    Ain't no kind of freedom
    Freedom, freedom, freedom
    Time out on the running boards
    We're running
    Through a world that lost it's meaning
    Trying to find a way to love
    This running
    Ain't no kind of freedom
    Freedom, freedom, freedom
    I'm bending to the task
    I know this work is never finished
    But if I close my eyes
    I can still see you dancing
    Laughing loud and undiminished
    Auteurs-compositeurs : David Gray

    What i like about this song besides the awsome sadness in the sense of nostalgia is the fact that this isn't about love. It's something else, since he is been with the same person since 1993 and this song was released in 2002. I just would like to know about what he implies on the song ifself.
