Feed me something
We'll go back to the start
Take pride of place
Understand our reasons
A photograph taken at the time when
Confidence won't up and leave

So loosen your hold
Though you might be frightened
Release or be caught
If this be the right thing
Unable by thought
To look what the tide brings in
Look what the tide brings in

Feed me something
We'll go back to the start
Take pride of place
Understand our reasons
A photograph taken at the time when
Confidence won't up and leave

So loosen your hold
Though you might be frightened
Release or be caught
If this be the right thing

Look what the tide brings in

So loosen your hold
Though you might be frightened
Release or be caught
If this be the right thing
Unable by thought
To look what the tide brings in

No reason to be sorry. A different opinion is welcome. Must say I love me some Jellyfish too...far more than any Coldplay.

Cross between Jellyfish and Coldplay. It's a good dash of each. Nice result.

Love a lot about this, and again I'm a sucker for a banjo...

like the harmonies.

I'm getting a kind of a prog-rock feeling from it.  Prog with a banjo ... interesting concept.

Love this song!

The beginning of the song holds a lot of promise but the song doesn't quite live up to that promise. Something is off but I'm not going to blame the banjo! If this song were a six-wheeled remote controlled robotic explorer, one of the wheels would be jammed. Still, I like the tune. {#Music}

Wow, this song has been on RP since 2003 (and I've been a listener since 2006) and somehow it never caught my attention until now.  {#Stupid}  I like it!

Yep, my first time hearing this, too.  I love the strings, and the lyrics... 7 for now, with potential for more... {#Mrgreen}

I have South's earlier album and really like it, but haven't heard much off of this one. Is it good overall?

I like it...this song and one other that gets played here too are by far the best songs on it. But its pretty good.

Fantastic segue from Tom McRae.

Why be so difficult? Rate the song, and when you hear it again, rate it again. Rather simple.

Yeah, I try never to judge a song until I've heard it twice. The first time I rate a song I always rate it a 5, then I only let myself rate things other than 5 if I go to the song and have already slapped a 5 on it....kind of my own personal checks and balances system on my snap judgments.

Yep. And both are on my mute list. edit 27-05-2005: Though I must admit that this song ain't bad enough to be muted. In fact I just upped to a 4.

Very nice! Maybe a little Elliot Smith, too? You just don't hear enough banjo these days. ;-)

This song is good... but the track before it on this CD (colours in waves I think it's called) is phenomenal. If you like this song... check this CD out, very nice.
