Fantastic version!

[@handfulofsnowdrops]

💙💙 I'm humbled by your comment and feel pretty undeserving. When it was requested I hesitated as I was terrified at the idea of covering this masterpiece of yours. To be honest it is pretty close to your version so, you still pretty much deserve all the credit for it Pieter!

[@douglas518]

I am shrouded in darkness I crouched in wasted years I lingered, I can't get trough Dazzled between far and near Like the elegies relate to days beyond recall I lingered in many memories And again I stumbled through the back door Seeing you , a misty shadow I feel my repression I can't go on And again I am falling backwards Tomorrow I will be here again A silent mute of a black desire Tomorrow I will be here again Tomorrow i'l be here again Be here again Be here again I am tired of tears and laughter Or what may come hereafter I am weary of days and hours Desires, dreams and powers Although it makes me weep It is you I wanna keep I wanna keep

[@miguelinglesserrano1777]

[@sylvielacaille1760]

Pretty sure you’ll disagree about this JP but prefer your version to the original! Love your voice and the sound! Congrats again on this amazing cover! 🖤🖤🖤

[@handfulofsnowdrops]

i neither agree nor disagree, I let the people who like HoS speak freely! It's not of my opinion you should be afraid of, but of the legion of CoX fans who might find your comment blasphemous! Gulp :D

CANADA'S ANSWER 2 DEPECHE MODE. #BRILLIANTBAND

[@handfulofsnowdrops]

Thank you!

[@thorazine666]

NO THANK YOU - ALL CAPS GUY

[@lerooleroo]

I would say Canada's answer to Clan of Xymox. They were always very similar. Obviously a big influence on them!

[@aaron1888]

are u the same handful of snowdrops that recorded now then and forever for the dr deaths marvels of insect life i used to play that alot back in the 90s just refound a digital copy all those comps on cest le mort were great

[@handfulofsnowdrops]

Yep the same, only sliiiiiiiightly older! ;) handfulofsnowdrops.bandcamp.com facebook.com/handfulofsnowdrops/

[@aaron1888]

i think we all are these days haha glad u are still making music check out my page and facebook all i do is play music and try to play lots of stuff most people never hear thanks for the link i will check out the new stuff

[@skywalker-vp5ng]

Kann man nur den Hut ziehen und Bravo sagen. Beim Gitarrensolo (ab Min. 4:35) ist Xymox noch unerreicht.

[@syrophenikan]

I've been a fan of Clan of Xymox for 35 years, and this version surpasses the original... and the original is a masterpiece.

[@handfulofsnowdrops]

You're too kind as always! Thank you!
