We’re doing something a little different this week.  This song, like all our previous, is still free but there is a catch.  In order to get the download we’re, asking that you sign up for our e-mail list.  We use our e-mail list very minimally but its a great way for you to hear about upcoming shows and free giveaways.  And if in the future, you don’t want to get updates from us, you can simply unsubscribe.  And just so you know we won’t give your e-mail address away or do anything crazy with it…  We promise.

Its a new system so if you have problems then email us and we’ll get it taken care of.

We felt it was time for a cover and it just so happens I got an email this week from a friend who suggested this one (thanks Tony!)  “Falling Slowly” was in a little no budget independent film called “Once,” which Tim and I are both fans of.

Sometimes we’ll do a cover because we have a different interpretation of the song and feel like we can improve on it in some way.  That is definitely not the case for this one.  I mean seriously it’s Glen Hansard!!!  We just wanted to do this song because we like it so much.

Read on for the lyrics and other stuff…

That amazing picture is once again the handiwork of the amazing Jeff Moore.

“Falling Slowly” lyrics by Glen Hansard

I don’t know you
But I want you
All the more for that
Words fall through me
And always fool me
And I can’t react
And games that never amount
To more than they’re meant
Will play themselves out

Take this sinking boat and point it home
We’ve still got time
Raise your hopeful voice you have a choice
You’ll make it now

Falling slowly, eyes that know me
And I can’t go back
Moods that take me and erase me
And I’m painted black
You have suffered enough
And warred with yourself
It’s time that you won

Take this sinking boat and point it home
We’ve still got time
Raise your hopeful voice you had a choice
You’ve made it now
Falling slowly sing your melody
I’ll sing along

This week’s “Sneak Peek Song of the Week” is a cover of “Falling Slowly,” by Glen Hansard and Marketa Irglova. (A song on the sound track for the movie Once.)  Shout out to Tony for suggesting it!
