I came across this gem of a sweet song of sadness today, and have simply fallen in love with it. Very simple words, very simple composition, and such effortless but impressive rendering by a voice that should merited to be known and heard more than it actually is.

Even as I type out this write-up, my fingers are trembling. And I am not exaggerating! I have written over 50 write-ups for this blog so far and yet I find myself struggling to put down my thoughts coherently for this particular piece.

I find myself totally inadequate to the occasion, and although I’ve just started, I have this nasty foreboding that I am going to make a mess of this, I am going to end up “choking”. I am suddenly beginning to empathise and sympathise with the South African cricket team. 😀
