Been a fan of this tune ever since I first heard it back in the 70's. Beautiful and soulful rendition here, lads! I feel like this song never really got the recognition it truly deserves.

I'm a Scot but I spent the second half of my childhood in Newcastle and considered myself an adopted Geordie by the time I left at 16 years of age. I love the Geordies and this stunning track takes me back to some really happy memories. Thank you Lindisfarne and long may you continue.

I am -- _WAS,_ rather - in the same position until the Love of my Life passed away a couple of years back, and I think I know exactly how you feel. Still, you both said you'd always be there for one another. That said, it takes a rather special partner who can be counted on to be there in the tough times...

If anything this version is even better than the original. Goes to show, musicians could play it live in those days, hence they can still do it. Well done lads!

Such a haunting song. I've liked this song since first hearing it in the mid 70's when a British pen pal sent me a Lindisfarne tape. If you're reading this, hello Julie Douglass (then of Drover's Cottage, Newcastle) from Rick in Canada. Thanks for the music!

From a real Geordie told to me back in the late 80's - A True Geordie is someone who was borne in sight of the Tyne Bridge and can see the rivets of the Bridge. Nowadays it's anyone from Newcastle Upon Tyne - North East coast of England..Anyway, what does it matter, I'm an East Londoner, but not a cockney (borne within hearing distance of Bow Church Bells), but we all sound the same. Who cares, most beautful song....
