Theres a cover song that ben plays live that goes like " Thinking back now/i suppose you were just stating your views/what was it all for.............Though we stood together at the edge of the platform/we were not moved by them. Then a line at the end about St. Swithens Day" i absolutely love this song but have no idea who sings the original version....if anyone can decode my pathetic lyric description....hook me up. Thanks!

That song is definitely a cover of the song "All Is Full Of Love", which I am almost absolutely sure is a Bjork song. They play it live sometimes, and it's on the Stability EP.
Hope that's what you're looking for.

look man, you're thinking of the toronto show, when they play all is full of love after blacking out the friction. what you don't know is after they play all is full of love, they play st. swithens day (by billy bragg). the track when you downloaded it says "all is full of love" so you thought it was just that song after blacking out the friction. is detective bob right?


I have promises to keep and miles to go before i sleep

all is full of love is an awesome song also. I love the original billy bragg version though just because of his accent. It just reminds me of someone playing in a pub in england.

I love the way ben plays/sings st. swithens day, and i think he said once that its his favorite song.

but yeah definately not a fan of the billy bragg version or billy bragg in general

sounds like all is full of love. I've never heard the brag version though. I always thought it was a bjork song.
