THIS SONG IS AWESOME! When I first heard this song I couldn't stop listening to it over and over. It totally reminds me of mid to late 60s psychedelic era bands like Love, Donovan, and a little S&G, GENIUS type stuff. Great job on this song!
From "Occupy Your Mind" "Becoming A Jackal" "Twenty Seven Strangers" and onto "The Soul Serene" you had me captivated with all the beauty you placed on each of the guitar strings,I think I just found love here
comparisons are to be made from whom realy listen, study and know about music,musicians and producers for example and from whom have absolut year, it´s easy for some, to get musicians influences, critcism´s a gift..... love these guys, love this song
the corus sounds alot lik simon and garfunkel. tis is goin to b one of the biggest new acts of 2010 without doubt. absolutely fantastic. makes u proud to b irish :) :)
I have listened to this many times, over and over. It's like it's calling me to listen... "It's the sort of song you want to play on repeat until every last note is engrained in your mind" - So true. It's such a haunting song, but I love it.
That's where he went! He was the guitarist for Cathy Davy and I absolutely love him! Brilliant live!Such a class song. Really good to see him doing well too.
A book i just read had this on song on the final pages as a recommendation from the author Now i can put a sound to the words i was reading. It closer to my heart. I will never let this go.

Back in 2010 I saw the preview for his album and got interested. I never looked for it after that, but I never forgot the name of the album. Today I heard this and it's like I falling in love again.
id never heard of this guy before until today, just seen him on joules holland tonight, im totally blown away. this is the most original music ive heard in years just beautiful and enchanting, im hooked just an amazing song thankyou
really well constructed song.. love the lyric and tune...im goin to be looking into there other works.. its almost iike an old vintage tune that ur parents would listen too.. it sums me up in as few words as posible..
I'm just glad every time I find Irish music not humping the damn dead leg of irish drinking songs turned bar punk... Thanks Villagers, break the stigma.
The band's mate Martin put me onto these guys and I'm really glad he did. They ought to hire him as a PR agent - he's marketing his arse off on their behalf all over the Net.

this is one of those songs that makes you just wanna drive into the sunset with this playing in the background forever.
This is absolutely brilliant. Congratulations to all involved in the music and the film. Best thing to come out of Ireland in many years.

@JonMcGrawMusic Seconded! It's rare for a support band to go down so well, especially in a stadium, but these guys really got everyone's attention.
Heard this song on the radio this morning, had to listen again!
This guy looks like a younger version of my science teacher :')
Still listening...lending my ears
I was a dreamer staring out windows out on to the mainstreet cause thats where the dream goes.........
