Not Only Rock Can Be Haunting - Chapter 1. "In These Arms"


Sometimes the beauty and pureness of performing is stretched out in simplicity and the chemistry between the artists. Glen and Marketa always had that; and these three minutes are a wonderfull insight into how something blissful is born. 27 second falsetto run on one breath by Hansard is something I simply cannot stop admiring and marveling at. When you're true you really don't need more than one old battered guitar and two voices. Glen even barely needs to pluck the strings at all and still does let the notes out from under wires. This seems so at ease, so effortless. Let yourself be swept away by this ethereal little gem.
