  • This is a breathtakingly beautiful live version of Orange Sky by the amazingly talented Alexi Murdoch. Alexi is helped by the always incredible Pete Townshend and the wonderful Rachel Fuller. This is from the outstanding In The Attic, which was the brain child of the brilliant Rachel Fuller. I do not own any rights to this video, but I certainly hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

    This song was played at the funeral of my 29 year old daughter who, along with her fiancé, were killed by a DUI driver. Then, six months later, it was played at the funeral of my 39 year old son, who died of an overdose after he restarted his drug usage to self medicate after losing his baby sister. I have requested that it be played at mine.

    Nick Drake would be proud and honoured if musicians such as these emulated him. Murdoch is great. I love how Townsend modestly, and professionally,gives Murdoch centre stage.

      I feel the same when I heard that line. My twin had moved to Arizona and we did everything together, even worked at the same place. The next day driving into work without him I heard this song. Gets me every time. Even though there's FaceTime & such, it's still tough. Why I'm telling you this who knows. The power of music, even one verse is so powerful!! Great soundtrack to memories! Peace!!

    You have to admit, that's got to be like a childlike dream for Alexi to have the guitar player of The Who play your song with you. Goes to show you how deep and powerful Alexi Murdoch's music is that a rock legend like Townsend wants to play with you.

    Well, I had a dream
    I stood beneath an orange sky
    Yes, I had a dream
    I stood beneath an orange sky
    With my brother standing by
    With my brother standing by
    I said Brother, you know you know
    It's a long road we've been walking on
    Brother, you know it is, you know it is
    Such a long road we've been walking on
    And I had a dream
    I stood beneath an orange sky
    With my sister standing by
    With my sister standing by
    I said Sister, here is what I know now
    Here is what I know now
    Goes like this
    In your love, my salvation lies
    In your love, my salvation lies
    In your love, my salvation lies
    In your love, in your love, in your love
    But sister you know I'm so weary
    And you know sister
    My heart's been broken
    Sometimes, sometimes
    My mind is too strong to carry on
    Too strong to carry on
    When I am alone
    When I've thrown off the weight of this crazy stone
    When I've lost all care for the things I own
    That's when I miss you, that's when I miss you, that's when I miss you
    You who are my home
    You who are my home
    And here is what I know now
    Here is what I know now
    Goes like this
    In your love, my salvation lies
    In your love, my salvation lies
    In your love, my salvation lies
    In your love, my salvation lies
    In your love, my salvation lies
    In your love, my salvation lies
    In your love, my salvation lies
    In your love, in your love, in your love
    Well I had a dream
    I stood beneath an orange sky
    Yes, I had a dream
    I stood beneath an orange sky
    With my brother and my sister standing by
    With my brother and my sister standing by
    With my brother and my sister standing by

    Pete Townsend and The Who are truly one of the most formative influences in my life growing up in Canada. From the first concert in Toronto in 1981 where they opened with Baba O'Reilly and the explosion from the flash pods in the climax of the song I was launched into a life long relationship with music singing, song writing, guitar and piano and this performance captures the essence of all that for me; a beautiful song supported by a legend with a layer of icing from the piano. Well done and thank you.

    Murdoch is cut from the same cloth as Tim Buckley and Nick Drake. Outlived them both as well.
    Townshend needs no introduction. A forever restless talent that will perform until his last dying breath.

    This is at Hotel Cafe in LA I think it was Feb, 2005. It was the first time I had heard of Alexi and he just blew away! Ben Harper was also playing and he signed my guitar before the show. Also, I had a good chat with Pete about the Scilly Isles, where I live, as he used to come on holiday to the islands. I was right at the front standing along side with the Smashing Pumpkins. A great night! I'm so pleased to see this footage
