will the night last forever? / stay by my side / 'cause tonight, together / would be divine / but once it's gone / your face to hide / against the sun / the moon / am I on the other side? / so blind, so long / goodbye, goodnight
Alan's Notes:
following in the "stars gone out" tradition. one of our favorite songs. this version recorded on a mini-cassette recorder with us hovering over, then played back through a lot of reverb. sometimes i think we should do a whole record this way.
Personal Thoughts:
A lovely song, but this initial version is just so hard to make out.
Other Version:
This is one of the few songs the band re-recorded. The version for "Secret Name" is far more standard and easier to discern.
Alan's Notes:
thought we should do a coherent version of this song (see original version on "... pilot" e.p.). all strings was a challenge. maybe barbara streisand will cover it some day.
Personal Thoughts:
Absolutely beautiful. One of the peaks of Low's songwriting.
Live:
Played fairly often over the years.
