Liner Notes

Another quick one - had to do this live but then added a quick melotron line partially to cover up my oohs.

Lyrics

V1 You and I May not look the same But I can walk round in your shoes We are both Mortals on this plane We will always end up in the blue

CH Hey I I can feel your pain Hey I I feel it in my veins Hey I’m Not gonna walk away Cause I can feel your pain As if it were my own

V2 We belong But it don’t feel that way Divide and conquer is the rule We are all Just trying to find our way We will always end up in the blue

CH Hey I I can feel your pain Hey I I feel it in my veins Hey I’m Not gonna walk away Cause I can feel your pain As if it were my own

Oohs

CH Hey I I can feel your pain Hey I I feel it in my veins Hey I’m Not gonna walk away Cause I can feel your pain As if it were my own Cause I can feel your pain As if it were my own

So good to hear you again. Your pacing is sublime here, and the vocals are gorgeous. Beautiful lyrics drenched in empathy.. That melotron hit the spot :)

Great delivery!. I stopped on this because of the shared title with the Manchester Orchestra song, and was not disappointed. Beautiful singing and emotion in this.

Very atmospheric especially with your vocal and the chorus lines. Obviously great to hear some mellotron in there. It blends very well with the oohs. Nice one.

mellotron! i like these acoustic one takes with an overdub or two for extra flavor, takes me back to how almost all FAWM demos were in the early days.

as far as the song goes: such a simple premise and yet so relatable, and such an important part of being human, captured here really well. i struggle to do skirmishes, but i can see how the constraints may(?) have forced you to keep this pared to the bare essentials, making it more evocative.

Aww ya the melotron's so nice to hear. Way to belt out that chorus with feeling! Very moving.

This is gorgeous and so powerful! Your voice sounds amazing and I love the guitar. Such an important message. Empathy is superpower not a weakness.

I love that mellotron! And the song as a whole is really beautiful – everything (lyrics, melody, voice, guitar) comes together so well. I really enjoyed this!

This is beautiful, Josh. Hope and healing for sure.

Your voice sounds amazing. Love the melody and how it evolves from the verse to the chorus. Mellotron always adds so much and it works perfectly here .. adds so much character to the mix. Great atmosphere and thoughtful lyrics too...
