Offline This may be my favorite George song. It is such a nice tune.
I love the line “only you know how to lay it down like it came from above, yes its you that I love”
He does a great job expressing the spirituality of his love.

Great song upon first listening! I think it would do well as part of a movie soundtrack (perhaps something by HandMade Films?
)

Offline @SgtPeppersBulldog you mean you’ve never heard Living In The Material World in full? You must remedy that 
I do like this song. It’s a nice upbeat-sounding tune, relieves the serious mood of the album nicely without compromising the serious subject matter.

Offline The drums are my favourite part of this track, everything else is alright, not great but sound enough. My favourite track on LitMW is probably ‘Try Some, Buy Some’.
