I Don't Believe In The Sun - Stephin Merritt

The Magnetic Fields... from the wonderful 69 Love Songs.

This is a REDO of this song: Angel Flying Too Close...
Again, it's the amazing Frank (SPUTTER) who I have to thank for the beautiful backing track... his incredible piano playing.

I am still very happy with my original take on this, it's just that I have done this again, because I wanted to add it to youtube, and I think I have matured a little since singing it first, and of course the improved mic... just love this song...

Not sure how long I will leave this open but wanted you to see it :-) <--- EDIT: 16.9... I will now be leaving it open indefinitely GRRR.

Thank you for all your support, you have helped enormously in showing me see the path to become all that I can be, and still growing.

13.09.08: WOW, er, this song was recorded under the link I give you above, and I can only say how very glad I am that I decided to re-record this one, as it is now GONE! As of yesterday!!!! So, here it is again, phew!


EDIT: 16.9.08 :-)

I didn't know the theme for this week, so I was kind of glad to see this one come up... I hid this recording as I recorded another song on the same day that I wanted you to see first, and then nobody saw this one, silly me! And as I said, just about a couple of weeks after recording it - I lost the original. :( I love this song.

yes, it still sounds like a beautiful dream, Janet! It would be neat to be able to compare the subtle differences in tone and emotion and maturity to your original recording.

This is just wonderful. Frank plays just beautifully... and your vocals are soft and soothing... CJ.. you have never looked more beautiful than you do here... there is an almost magical quality to this... you look so sweet and innocent... I am not sure who loves you more.. my ears.. or the camera... Simply brilliant!
