Fantastic find Ed. This is probably the best version of this song, its on my iPod so it must be.Islandflyer wrote:How about this one? It just showed up on YouTube. This has long been a favorite of mine.
Dirty Little Secret in the studio.

The combination of her matchless piano and this melancholy song is perfect.

Karine let me download the iTunes special of Sarah which had DLS as the final track. The narrative accompanying this sounded like it nearly didn’t make it onto the album. This would have been a mistake. I’m sure I’ve mentioned this before on the forum, but, if DLS hadn’t been included I may never have been a fan. Afterglow was the first album I bought back in 2004 I think, and like many albums, I’d listen to it a few times and then it would be shelved. However, this track was a ear worm, and I couldn’t stop playing it over and over in my head. I took Afterglow of the shelf and the rest, as they say, is history.
The iTunes special version is supposed to be the very first time she played it to Pierre and he recorded it without her knowing. The production is a little iffy but it’s still a good variant. Listen to it Ed and let me know what you think.
