TAKE ME BACK



The edgy, fragile version of Van Morrison's 'Take Me Back' song still raises the hairs at the back of my neck.

Admittedly the performance needs to be seen in the context of the excellent film Georgia from which it's taken (one of those great films that the Americans can make that aren't connected to Hollywood and the Oscar craziness).

Old Van Morrison was pretty good at writing songs like this. A couple of my favourites are Cypress Avenue and the visceral TB Sheets.
