Title: Re: Fairport @ 50 Poll - Song 1997 - 2017 Post by: Brendan on February 27, 2017, 11:57:11 PM I din't realise they'd released any albums in the past 10 years ;)
Title: Re: Fairport @ 50 Poll - Song 1997 - 2017 Post by: Tony Pim on February 28, 2017, 10:20:02 AM I'll go Festival Bell because it's become synonymous with 4pm on Thursday and everything still to come
Title: Re: Fairport @ 50 Poll - Song 1997 - 2017 Post by: LarWes on February 28, 2017, 10:21:59 AM This was a tricky one. Weightless/The Gravity Reel (with I'm Already There, Spanish Main. and Grace and Favour close).

Title: Re: Fairport @ 50 Poll - Song 1997 - 2017 Post by: Bridgwit (Bridget) on February 28, 2017, 12:19:25 PM I'm Already There. Will duelling violins. I love it!
Title: Re: Fairport @ 50 Poll - Song 1997 - 2017 Post by: ColinB on February 28, 2017, 01:12:48 PM Over the Next Hill Just realised this should probably be in the 'songs by non-members' category as it was written by Steve Tilston. So I'll second My Love is in America. Title: Re: Fairport @ 50 Poll - Song 1997 - 2017 Post by: blagden on February 28, 2017, 01:23:13 PM My Love Is In America is a good shout.

Title: Re: Fairport @ 50 Poll - Song 1997 - 2017 Post by: blagden on February 28, 2017, 05:42:26 PM The Wood and the Wire possibly.

I always read(heard) this as being about willing someone who is dying to stay alive. Metaphorically at least. Anyone else, or just me ??

Title: Re: Fairport @ 50 Poll - Song 1997 - 2017 Post by: Tony Mc on March 01, 2017, 09:45:11 AM Much that I like them, I have always felt Don't leave too soon, and My love is in America could be different sections from the same song.
