José González Lyrics
We'll remain after everything's been washed away by the rain
We will stand upright as we stand today
Lovestain
You left a lovestain on my heart
And you left a bloodstain on the ground
But blood comes off easily

It is sad he isn't as popular as he could be even now, I would listen to him back in my college days, when I was 16/17 but no one knew of him then and it's the same now, I suppose it keeps it special, shame we can't hear him on radio though and I feel like it may be less possible for him to do a tour in the UK cos of this 😢
Linxy Wun
@Benjamin Callanan Music you are so right!! The absolute bullshit on our radios confirm how dumbed down most of the UK is!! It is honestly torture!! Just even more so painful when you've been a fan of his for soooooo long and it feels like he isn't getting the recognition he truly deserves 😭😭
