Terminal Star

A beautiful song by Scottish singer, Karine Polwart. 

Some songs have such resonance, both aurally and lyrically, that they seem to echo in your head like your own memories. I've been listening to it constantly. Check it out if you have the chance.


"You're a beautiful trace
Across time and space
You're a thing that once shone
And you still shine bright
In the darkest night
Though you're already gone"

Music Video // Jason Kyrone

The 80eight kitchen, has, so we're told, rather amazing acoustic qualities - particularly the reverb. It doesn't seem to help with my flat Northern vowels even when I'm attempting a rendition of the Van Der Graaf Generator 13 minute classic "A Plague of Lighthouse Keepers", but I'll keep trying :-)

Real, talented musicians have no problem though and here's Jason Kyrone, in the 80eight kitchen, with a fabulous rendition of 'One Dollar Bill'. His voice sounds fantastic, but to be completely honest, he would sound fantastic anywhere.
