Tunesday 1st July, 2014: Green - Adam Barnes

Today's pick is the kind of song that needs little, if any, introduction, so I will keep it uncharacteristically (for me at least) succinct.

Green is the first single off Adam Barnes latest album 'The Land, The Sea & Everything Lost Beneath,' and it is beautiful. I've said in the past that I'm an absolute sucker for an acoustic performance, and this one is no different. Just about caught the vapours at 1:14 in! 

You get the feeling, watching the emotion you see Barnes pour into this set, that he is laying all his cards on the table here. The lyrics are indubitably heartfelt, and like an an arrestingly poetic version of situations that many of us have been a part of.

Seriously, I think the only way this song could be made better is if you listened to it bathed in the fiery glow of a fulgent sunset.

As always, enjoy! (:
