    Still say he's the best singer I've ever seen live.. under appreciated in today's musical world imo

      i agree - he's 1000 times better live. it's amazing

      He's good..no doubt.Best singer I ever saw live hands down was Freddie Mercury..no one touching or getting near him in my book for his vocal range.

      Good friend saw him live and said he stood there & just belted them out, sounding amazing each time for all the concert, energy & emotion.
      The week after he saw Sclub7, all the dancing to hide the lack of singing talent.

      Not really under appreciated gezzer. I listen to one of his songs every day when I'm driving.

      My absolute favorite singer. When I first heard Babylon all those years ago I went out and bought every CD of his I could find.

    I always loved Bruce Springsteen music, but this just makes me realise how special his voice it. I love David Gray as well. My copies of his albums are warped!

      By the time I was 17, I'd gotten through three vinyl copies of Dark Side of the Moon. In 1986, I bought it on CD and the CD is still going strong.

    Like many of you who have commented, David Gray is my favorite artist and here he is singing a rich and moving song. My wife and I saw David at the Wang Theatre in Boston during his Draw the Line tour. It remains my favorite show. (Kathleen, anyone?)
    One question: did any of you notice who is shaking the "maraca? " I could be mistaken, but is that not Joaquin Phoenix?

    Hello,
    My all time favourite musical phrase is from this song: ain't no angel gonna greet me, it's just you and I my friend.
    I have a pair of the headphones David is wearing the Beyerdynamic DT 770 Pro and I bought them because I knew they are used in BBC studios.
