    This song has just come on the TV whilst watching "Gone Fishing" with Paul and Bob. It's completely pole-axed me in It's beauty. How can this music be out there undiscovered to me when the mainstream is just saturated with talentless shit!! Absolutely stunning song.

    "Nothing Like A Friend"
    And in the end, the things that hold you in
    Are gossamer thin, disappeared with the wind
    Will these city streets remember us?
    We walked them long ago
    Blown apart by a bitter wind that took us far from home
    And in the end, it's gossamer thin
    Ah, but then again,
    There's nothing like a friend
    Who can drive you 'round the bend,
    We'll be lovers 'til the end
    Will these city streets remember us? We walked them long ago
    Blown apart by a bitter wind that took us far from home
    And in the end, it's gossamer thin
    And in the end, there's nothing like a friend
    Will these city streets remember us? We walked them long ago
    Blown apart by a bitter wind that took us far from home
    And in the end, it's gossamer thin
    And in the end, there's nothing like a friend...

    Nothing like a Friend. The one that nobody asks where he is. It is ours! It's just ours!
    When our glass breaks, it is we who know how to put the pieces in the place that belongs to them.
    Company is comparable to that of a Friend!
    Richard Hawley, to me, is much more than that. I know that I am the listener but what comes to me through your work?

    Desde a nostalgia, a tristeza no meio da alegria, a ânsia de querer ouvir e ver mais e mais. Há algo de mágico que inunda o nosso pensamento. Apenas deixo o pensamento fluir pelas estradas do prazer que vão chegando através dos sons, da melodia.
    Por isto, vale a pena lutar pela Música e fazer o que se gosta.
    Eternamente agradecido!
    From nostalgia, sadness in the midst of joy, the eagerness to want to hear and see more and more. There is something magical that floods our thoughts. I just let the thought flow through the pleasure roads that come through the sounds, the melody.
    For this reason, it is worth fighting for Music and doing what you like.
    Forever grateful!
