someone told me how to live
but I never listened

someone told me it was love
and then I kissed her

I've broken every rule I know
I know that it's hard for you but I have to go

someone told me how to give
and you know I listened

no one told me it was hard to receive
and so I missed it

Lovely flowing mellow sound, matched perfectly by the laid-back vocals.  
On the face of it, nothing too exciting, but it just fits a mood, and fits it really well.  Very enjoyable 7->8 from me.
Double plus good.

By sneaking out and turning the satellite dish to point to the Astra satellites and watching late night Swedish TV.  Strictly for research purposes of course...
Yeah, definitely sounds like Jesse Sykes! Catchy lilting mellow melody reminiscent of Neil Halstead's Seasons... I LIKE IT on 1st listen!

Very nice! Sort of a cross between The Cowboy Junkies and Yo La Tengo.
