    David Gray is in my top 3 favorite artists of all time, along with Damien Rice and Paolo Nutini and I happen to be 17. But then again, I guess I just enjoy music with a full heart behind its meaning. =]

    Whenever this song plays from nowhere I remembered playing with my first puppy dog (Muttley) by the lake all the time.. Until she grew up and passed away 6 years ago. And every time this song plays I just stop and reminisce those days , never have a another dog ever since..........because it hurts. Thanks Mr. D. Gray for bringing up the memories.....

      Sorry about your dog but as one dog lover to another, get another if possible. All the years of love you share with them somehow makes it worth the terrible time when they leave you.

    • @delb6923

    saw David Gray in 2000 at the Hammersmith Odean in London, and though I've been to a great many concerts by various artists in my time, that cocert was by far the best live performance I have ever seen. The purity and sheer power of this man's voice is a wonder to behold. If you haven't seen him and you get the chance, just go, you will not regret it.

  • @BabyCatherine2011

    I swear I heard Babylon as a kid and I had a version that was acoustic, then years later I rediscovered this lost song and the original sounded nothing like the one I'd heard. I'm still in search of the acoustic version I'd heard. I'll know it when I hear it

    Friday night I'm going nowhere
    All the lights are changing green to red
    Turning over TV stations
    Situations running through my head
    Well looking back through time
    You know it's clear that I've been blind
    I've been a fool
    To ever open up my heart
    To all that jealousy, that bitterness, that ridicule
    Saturday I'm running wild
    And all the lights are changing red to green
    Moving through the crowd I'm pushing
    Chemicals all rushing through my bloodstream
    Only wish that you were here
    You know I'm seeing it so clear
    I've been afraid
    To tell you how I really feel
    Admit to some of those bad mistakes I've made
    If you want it
    Come and get it
    Crying out loud
    The love that I was
    Giving you was
    Never in doubt
    Let go your heart
    Let go your head
    And feel it now
    Babylon, Babylon
    Sunday all the lights of London
    Shining , Sky is fading red to blue
    I'm kicking through the Autumn leaves
    And wondering where it is you might be going to
    Turning back for home
    You know I'm feeling so alone
    I can't believe
    Climbing on the stair
    I turn around to see you smiling there
    In front of me
    If you want it
    Come and get it
    Crying out loud
    The love that I was
    Giving you was
    Never in doubt
    And feel it now
    Let go your heart
    Let go your head
    And feel it now
    Let go your heart
    Let go your head
    And feel it now
    Let go your heart
    Let go your head
    And feel it now
    Let go your heart
    Let go your head
    And feel it now

    Esta canción, esta canción simplemente te hace sentir que estas vivo, y que también vives y morirías por alguien, eso es lo magnifico de la música, te teletransporta, y por momentos te convierte en notas musicales que viajan entre las nubes para llegar al lugar en el que siempre has querido estar. Gracias David Gray por esta fantástica pieza musical. (:
