My Darling,

While you were in Puerto Rico, the Siftpocalypse happened, in which almost everything on the Sift was lost. Everything has been restored, except I believe we must now re-register with exactly the same username and then post...

Hi Calvados. Happy new year to you and yours. Please check this out - he is a brilliant songwriter.

haha, the world can never get enough Irish songs sung while drunk. Maybe include it in the *drugs channel too.

EDIT: and I've been meaning to ask you; who/what is your avatar?

Hi Rasch. I am a bit on the drink and posted this video of my friend playing at a pub, please check it out - he is a brilliant songwriter and i think you may appreciate it even if he has had one too many drams.

Isn't he though

In reply to this comment by vinovin:
Cal, this is a wonderful song, I am quite familiar with it. Sam Beam is a brilliant song writer.

In reply to this comment by calvados:
If you go to the man's site, there's a jukebox with several songs that will loop for you: http://www.ironandwine.com/

One of them is called "16 Maybe Less" and, vin, I'm going to threadjack for a minute here. There's no good video of that song but like I say you can go listen to it and I'ma post its lyrics right here. It made drunken Calvados sappy one night.

http://lyricwiki.org/Iron_%26_Wine:16,_Maybe_Less

Beyond the ridge to the left, you asked me what I want
Between the trees and cicadas singing round the pond
"I've spent an hour with you, should I want anything else?"

One grinning wink like the neon on a liquor store
We were 16, maybe less, maybe a little more
I walked home smiling, I finally had a story to tell

And though an autumn time lullaby
Sang our new-born love to sleep
My brother told me he saw you there
In the woods one Christmas Eve
Waiting

I met my wife at a party when I drank too much
My son is married and tells me we don't talk enough
Call it predictable, yesterday my dream was of you

Beyond the ridge to the west, the sun had left the sky
Between the trees and the pond, you put your hand in mine
Said, "Time has bridled us both, but I remember you too"

And though an autumn time lullaby
Sang our new-born love to sleep
I dreamt I travelled and found you there
In the woods one Christmas Eve
Waiting

Looks like a member of the playlist beat me to it. Happy Holidays.. thanks for the contribution

Don't worry about it, the VS search is spotty at best. I'm just glad to have another Dylan aficionado here

In reply to this comment by vinovin:
oh dear! didn't see it when i searched. i shall promptly remove.

In reply to this comment by rasch187:
It sure does, but since it's a Dylan vid, I've already sifted it: http://www.videosift.com/video/Improvisation-101-with-Bob-Dylan
