This track off the Virginia EP is out there. It sounds really damn good. I don't know if I'm allowed to post a link..

A link has already been posted to it in the "Official(ish) live/rarities thread".

There's got to be some sort of track-title irony here.

I love this song, don't know if it's well covered because I only got to listen to seconds of the original... so sorry Caroline. : (


I'd really like to write down the lyrics to this. Anyone who's not deaf like me would go for it? (cause, Rosemary, I really think you're right - the word is "omission")

Without Permission

Oh, well I just don’t know
How you could go without permission
Cause where (well?) if you’re not there
Well I just don’t care for this omission

Every moment brings me down when you’re not around
But all I’m asking for is come back for just one day

So where did you go
And do you now know how to be happy
Cause here well it’s pretty clear
When you’re not near me I am unhappy

Every moment brings me down when you’re not around
But all I’m asking for is come back for just one day
And make it worth the while just to see your smile
That’s all I’m asking for

Oh I’ve come to know
You had to go without permission
Cause it was how, how I wore you down
And how I dragged you round my sole ambition

Every moment brings me down when you’re not around
But all I’m asking for is come back for just one day
And make it worth the while just to see your smile
That’s all I’m asking for, my dear

I don't even have to check it with the music on because all I have to do is read it and I can hear his voice and the melody instantly. : )

It's just the way I listened to it, apart from the "omission incident" (let's call it that way... unsure.gif )

Thanks, Rosemary! : )
