Gifted was the one we recorded <i>al fresco</i> in the back garden, with just one mic, Ziggy, a guitar, and a chorus of local songbirds, while Tommy quietly quaffed beer at the garden table. Unless I was so pissed by then I didn't realise what was going on. Which is not impossible. No you’re thinking of the seagulls during the medley, which was recorded in the living room.

There are no accidents in FOUNDland. That’s actually on Tommy’s sampler, not from outside. There are no accidents in FOUNDland.

It really was an amazing session. The other tracks are all just as fantastic as Mullokian. I particularly like the birdsong leaking through into Gifted.

It is by far my favorite song of the year. This is great list and a reminder that I need to go out and buy a few albums... Hmm, I was convinced No Cigarettes was going to come out number one.

Tunes, I've come to expect from you, but that doesn't make them any less special, and in a couple in there I haven't heard, which I'm quite excited about! Also, despite our little, ahem, issues with The Avett Brothers earlier in the year, "I and Love and You" is one of the beautiful songs I have heard in quite some time. Have a great rest of 2009, Matthew - and thank you for the friendship this year. Lee Wonderful.

Thank christ I now have something to download to sound track my "half day" Xmas eve work day with. Hopefully I can count on numerous "turn that shite down" looks and massively deep sighs as drones walk by. I consider getting that from these co-workers can be a gift in itself... All the best to you and yours. S. Nice list Matthew! Thank christ I now have something to download to sound track my “half day” Xmas eve work day with.
