thanks richie

i forgot to add that he did a beautiful rendition of THE GUESTS, which he also performed at the lenny tribute in sydney

Hi Ania ~

Is it The Guests that you were initially referring to? The only song I found that had to do with falling in love last night was the one about falling in love with a dead boy.

Thanks.

And Frankenstein, in a way...

I am falling into a chasm
I am falling with you in my arms
No wait, these are your arms
Your arms of love
That I'm falling into
Is this a vision of love

Not a big fan though... Love his version of "Soft Black Stars", and the Dead Boy, yes... But that's about it for me.

i saw him at the end of last year, and he made a few comments about 'the guests' before he sang it - along the lines of, "i normally drop a cover after a little while, but this song's got under my skin, i think i'll be singing it till the day i die."
