I'm a 53 years old man I always have tears in my eyes when I hear that song.

[@danzesociety]

I'm 58, does the same for me. Memories of days past.

[@robyuille]

We chose this for my wife to walk down the Aisle to at our wedding, four years ago. She's still my favourite girl in all the world.

[@user-gq8jz7wf9q]

How lovely!

[@ELSGaming]

Aw

[@CelticFan]

This is the song my bride will be walking down the aisle to Sept 2021

[@robyuille]

@@CelticFan excellent choice. You have superb taste. I chose the later version but they're both good!

[@CelticFan]

@@robyuille can you point me at the later version. 👍

[@alunhume3593]

Very very special

[@glynnwadeson5605]

His songs always go straight to the heart...

[@valeriereynolds4807]

Found this thru a documentary...From Scotland With Love...I'm hooked on his music now!

[@rusty2222]

Digging Kenny, walking proof that a song & a soul trounces a thousand chords & endless guitar solos.

[@black__bread]

Apologies in advance, stealing 'a song and a soul'. Cheers but

[@cam101room]

Stu, I fully agree - it should be 2 million.

[@nodtez]

[@danielmcauley6101]

Thought I was the only one who gets super emotional listening to Kenn,ys songs

so touching and simple. It builds and blossoms and has such sadness and sweetness.

beautiful arrangement, Just discovered King Creosote via "Our Girl" Series 1 EP4 BBC army drama, copied out the lyrics and did a search, "Running On Fumes" came up, spent the rest of the day in raptures, thanks :-)

[@thechunkyone7118]

Nothing better when you hunt a song out you've been dieing to find

[@davidkendrick4728]

One of my 8

[@richardday5015]

Absolutely beautiful 💫

[@danzesociety]

Never realised how good he was. Found him through Jon Hopkins. Glad I did. Everything he does is with emotion.

[@philippduerri]

Merci :)

[@textucker1158]

[@Yawnyaman]

[@salr362]

‘Shell’ brought me here.

[@Kayem967]

Sings like an accordian.

[@NavitronikaRu]

Мощно

[@misneach]

Under the hammer 92😁sbo... Carrie

[@fecklessmovies]

It’s interesting that several people have chosen this as their wedding song. For me it evokes an old man lying on his deathbed and talking about his daughter or granddaughter, rather than being about a romantic partner.
Has he ever explained the lyrics?

[@davidkendrick4728]

Don't know if he has or not but it's an interesting point you make.
But anyway it's an achingly beautiful song; not the only one by any stretch and I love what he does

[@robinjeree]

I also had a vision of a young man perhaps in WWI or WW2. A song like this evokes so many different feelings and images for all of us

[@steedo67]

👌

[@stevies5]

I'm singing Pete Wylie's "Sinful" along to this. Try it. ;)

[@subterraneanpimpernel9455]

this song is about his daughter. fife4life

[@bryanscatchard5137]

Beautifully muted eloquence

[@georgemurray2901]

[@Eringwyrdd]

Better listen closely

[@ianabroad]

Sniff

[@TARQUIN222]

3 downs WTF ???

[@hahagogle]

Not even double denim could ruin this

[@kjburkable]

a bit too radiohead for me

[@fecklessmovies]

I sang it for someone the other day and they thought it was Radiohead.
