I'm sure you are aware of the Jean Pierre Jeunet film Amelie and it's wonderful soundtrack by Yann Tiersen? You may not be aware that Tiersen did a radio session back in 1999 where he colaborated with a variety of other artists including Neil Hannon from The Divine Comedy. Neil was still on form at the time (I'm sorry to say that I think he's lost it since) and sang one of my favourite of his songs which was only improved by Tiersen's arrangement.
What do you think?

I was at this Black session in 99 ! And this song and the David Bovie's cover they made ("Life On Mars?") were really a graceful moment. Actually the whole concert was amazing. One of my best memories ever !
Thanks for having published it !
I would disagree most strongly about Neil having gone at all downhill since, but still - thank you very much for posting this.
