Louis was my dearest friend
Fighting in the ANZAC trench
Louis ran forth from the line
I never saw him again

    When the song starts it is a bit off-putting, I find. It's like you're dreaming the whole album long and this song is the alarm clock waking you up again.

    I'd rather have The Nightingale as the closer, can't really get into this one.

    Whoever says this is unlistenable has unfortunately not been forced to sit through the 4-Track Demos.

    Unlistenable? I think this is one of the most beautiful and emotional songs I've ever heard. It always gets me. I've been listening to the album since March and I still fucking love it.
