I first heard this one here on RP 22 years ago and I bought the CD !  



Wow! Just about as long as I've been listening.
Been hearing this on RP for 23 years - good stuff William! 😊

Just thinking, I've probably been listening for 25. Great stuff, as always!

Hope your own office is not empty.
Does no one at Lazarus's church like this song??

Please don't blame this vanilla fest on "Country" (whatever that is). This is too lightweight to be the soundtrack for a margarine commercial.

I feel as if every time I have RP on this gets played.

It's Seth Lakeman on fiddle, who's a rather well-renowned English fiddle player, where I'm concerned
Reminds me too much of early Taylor Swift.....I have to reset my clock for the night shift of RP——-YUCK!......Oh no here comes that Banjo stuff again.
This song reminds me a lot of Box Set.  I like it, but I think I need to dig out my Box Set CD now...

Love her voice!
This is very The The - This is the day intro and refrain

What is funny is that other than pockets of Charleston, Greenville is the most progressive area of the state!{#Lol}
 

I have been to Greenville, SC.  Great town.  I have a friend that lives in Greer.  Seemed pretty progressive to me.  I was only in the artist's  square area, though.

A lot of "sounds like" comments here. To me, sounds like Julie Murphy/Eddie from Ohio.
Yummy.{#Hug}

Nearly anyone is too liberal for Greenville.  I hope you got over to the Handlebar a few times.  Some great acts appear there, the sort you hear here.

That's what it is! Thanks.
And, yeah, probably too Canadian....

A little Dar Williams, a little Dixie Chicks.  Hummable and catchy.  Don't understand the negativity.
I was sitting at my desk thinking how much I liked this song, then read the nasty comments below, and just had to wonder (not about the music).

If that is all you can say by way of constructive criticism, it reinforces my view that some people should not make comments.

This is just a very uplifting song, and happily, I have the pleasure of associating it with a particularliy beautiful woman who graced my life. bless you Donna.

Thank you RP for introducing me to this group
? ? ?. . .
A local radio station played this song in the mid 90's before it was bought out by clear channel. I loved the song then but being musically ignorant about anything other than country and whatever random Celtic CD I picked up, I certainly wasn't up to tracking down underground rock. I almost memorized the song in high school and recognized it instantly on R.P...I can play it in my head now. Nothing more annoying than having a song stuck in your head for 10 years and not know what it is...underground rock gah! If they have to be so secretive could they be a little less addictive...
That lead singer makes me want to have a lenghty criminal record of felonious osculation with her.

Your ears must be man-haters.
10,000 Maniacs...Countrified?
The fiddles are making me like this song very much.

I'd agree with you in some respects, but this song is 8 years old.

Reminds me of Vienna Teng.
My number one band that I can't get on iTunes. After the Beatles, anyway. Grrrr.

never heard of 'em, but likin' 'em... go fiddles go!

You said exactly what I was thinking. Some people are way too serious about this!

Yep.
Bring on the twang...........
zzzzzzzz

Twang? I hear no twang, but I sure like the fiddle background. Nice number - 7 from the Nottingham jury :)

Well, I guess you could try one of the Clear Channel clones, where they play the same set every seven minutes. Seems to me seven months is a decent enough hiatus. Then again, I'm an old fart. Maybe my clock just runs a bit slower... Nonetheless, this time Equation followed The Bangles and OK Go. Maybe Bill was listening. BTW, Equation is a British band, so perhaps the fiddles are in the British folk idiom, not merely our countrified twang, which seems to be objectionable to some. But what's wrong with a little twang now and then? I like my road apples as much as codswallop.

Then so is Alison Kraus and half a dozen other RP faves. The purpose of RP is to allow one to broaden her/his horizons.

mp3? wmv? Wha? Seems just right for RP. And quite likeable, in fact. I, for one, could use a LOT more bluegrass on RP. Hear my vote.
We need more of this, Bill. Nickel Creek too. Both could be classified as "Bluegrass" and the violin is very nice.........

Catchy.
This is one of those tunes that sticks to the inside of your head. I like it more every time I hear it. (but then, I'm a sucker for a tasteful minor move like the chorus has )
Kinda like Ani DiFranco-lite. But not in a bad way. Ani is cool, and so are these sirens.

There's only one DJ here. And sometimes a set really works. And 7 months and 7 days? Not bad. See, I just heard it 15 days later. And even that isn't bad, because this is the first time I've heard that particular combination. It all comes out in the wash, or something, is all I'm saying.
Wow, I just bumped this from a 4 to a 7. I must be in some kinda mood, but those fiddles sound excellent with that organ right now.

Nothing very original here
hmm. it's not immediately clear to me how good this is; but I seem to like it. :-)

Not up to Mary Black or Loreena McKennitt, but very likable. At least she reminds me of both ladies.

A great song, great sound. Since I have been big on Dar Williams lately, this only fits too well.
