MonkeyHanger - glad you like the song. Apparently Faster Than The Setting Sun was released as a single on 26 April 2010 on iTunes but I have no idea if it made it as a 45 release. Anyway, here is the Single Version (as opposed to the version on the album) which I think is better than the album version. It's a great song.
I bought the album last week and haven't stopped playing it. My copy is a newer release with four extra tracks, including his version of Billy Joel's She's Always A Woman as featured on the John Lewis TV ad (I prefer Joel's version but than I'm a big Joel fan!). I bought the album for £6 at Fopp in central London but discovered today that Sainsburys are selling this expanded version for £5.99. At these prices it's an exceptional bargain! I prefer the faster tempo songs on the album to the slower tempo ones, but I rate the whole album highly.
Utterly brilliant. He's the guy from The Guillemots? I'm going out to buy the 45 this very morning because that Sir, has restored my faith in "New" music.
This is a great song. Picked it up on iTunes recently. Sounds faintly like George Harrison. Wondering whether I should buy the album or not based on this song.
