(1)Fink, Brighton-based acoustic folk / blues / electronic artist
A recording / performance name of Brighton, UK's Fin Greenall - a Bristol-born understated singer-songwriter. He is an uncompromising artist - in acoustic folk / blues / dub - with an astounding stage presence, signed to Ninja Tune Records. With live accompaniment by Guy Whittaker (bass) & Tim Thornton (drums), they have played over 300 shows, in the last three years (inc' supporting Zero 7 & Massive Attack). In addition to his performance history, Fink has written with many (inc' John Legend & Amy Winehouse), plus remixed Elbow, Nina Simone, 坂本龍一 & Robert Belfour. Prior to all of this, Greenall - who grew up in the same city as Roni Size, Portishead & Massive Attack - was a Ninja Tune DJ, spinning trip-hop & breakbeat internationally.
Fink’s 2006 debut Biscuits For Breakfast (recorded entirely in his loft in Brighton) saw him reincarnated to become Ninja Tune’s first singer-songwriter. Such was the impact of this collection of songs on the underground British musical landscape, iDJ Magazine stated: "If 'Blue Lines' was about Generation X's experience of house parties, hip-hop and smoking drugs then this astonishing album is its millennial equivalent."
2007 saw the release of Distance And Time, another critically acclaimed record that saw Fink’s fan base spread around the world. As an incredibly accomplished and versatile vocalist and guitarist he has since performed as a special guest in front of thousands at London's Royal Albert Hall as part of BBC Proms, New York's legendary Carnegie Hall (where he performed a cover of REM’s ‘The Apologist’ in front of the song’s creators), and even Milan's 80,000 capacity San Siro Stadium. It was also Distance And Time that caught the attention of John Legend, with whom Greenall co-wrote ‘Green Light’ featuring Andre 3000 and ‘Set Me Free’ from Legend’s Evolver LP. Legend, in return, makes a guest appearance on piano, and co-wrote two tracks with Greenall on Sort Of A Revolution.
There are very few independent artists who have quietly accomplished such an amazing array of achievements, and judging by this new and impeccable record, it doesn't seem that Fink - many a music fan's best kept secret - will be a secret for too much longer.

Cold Feet
Fink Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Cold feet always walk in a vicious circle
Oh cold feet yeah Always taking you nowhere
Cold feet always walk in you nowhere
Cold feet always walk in a vicious circle
Cold feet always walk in a vicious circle
Cold feet, cold feet, cold feet, cold feet Cold feet, cold feet, cold feet, cold feet
Cold feet They do n't walk your path at night
Cold feet always walk in a vicious circle
Cold feet always walk in a vicious circle
The lyrics to Fink's song Cold Feet suggest a sense of aimlessness and stagnation. The repeated phrase "always walk in a vicious circle" creates a feeling of being trapped and going around in circles. The use of "cold feet" as a metaphor adds to the sense of being frozen or stuck in one place. The line "always taking you nowhere" reinforces this idea of being lost and directionless. The repetition of the phrase "cold feet" emphasizes the feeling of being stuck and unable to move forward. The line "they do n't walk your path at night" suggests a feeling of isolation, as if the person with cold feet is unable to connect with others or find their way in the darkness.

@mardenhill
pretty much on par with the fargo musical director, indeed.
@brandystoy
Should have his own show.
@volcranoii7709
This is the song I will always associate with Nacho. It does such a good job of encapsulating Nacho’s story.

And what a song it is!
BTW, Naco's death was one of the most poetic (and fitting) scenes I've watched. Although he was far from an angel and he had himself to blame for much of his troubles, it really cemented him as a martyr, at least in that universe
