THAT song from the Titanic Days period. Originally cut from the album for being almost too touching (it concerned her recent divorce), Kirsty later 'gave' the track to Eddi Reader - Kirsty wrote this album with Mark E. Nevin of Fairground Attraction. Since Kirsty's death it's resurfaced in various locations. Here it is now - I defy you not to shed a tear...
For the love of Kirsty...

I actually prefer this version, it's a bit rougher and more earnest than Eddi's version. I love it just like this...10 years ago

This is one of the most raw songs I ever heard when I first discovered it years ago. Kirsty McCall is singing it to her soon to be ex husband and father of her sons. It was tragic when you hear the words to think she was killed so senselessly only a few years later by a dodgy gangster who was allowing a young boy to steer his boat!!12 years ago

@stefanthebass To each his own, it's a great song either way. You probably know, but Eddi Reader performed this at the Kirsty Tribute concert last year. There wasn't a dry eye in the room and she did a stunning job!12 years ago

Kirsty was for sure a gifted singer and I love her songs. But to be honest, I prefer the Eddie Reader version of this song, her version *really* moves me. Eddie's phrasing and the careful arragement are really brilliant. Thank you Kirsty for your song.14 years ago

Oh Norris! Kirsty has to be the most underated singer this planet has ever known. If you get the chance,listen to Soho Square - beautiful.14 years ago

This song was new to me. A gentle and beautiful song. I am now wondering what other gems are to be found amongst the works of this remarkable songwriter.15 years ago
