really?
David doesn't seem to crave "being heard of" by everyone on planet Earth (or distant galaxies), but his music is absolutely phenomenal. I've seen him 3 times in concert...and after the last at the Murat Theatre in Indianapolis he came out after the show and signed autographs and posed for pictures for all who wanted them. Very patient and generous with his time. He's bigger in the UK than the US, but once you "discover" him it's hard to ignore him.
Jessica: If you like White Ladder (and I do!) you'll enjoy the "Life In Slow Motion" CD as well. "Draw The Line" is also good, but WL and LISM are at the top of my list.
Best David Gray song: 'The Other Side'. Soooooo amazing.
@galaxy: David Gray sang the huge hit song "Babylon" about 8 or so years ago.

I love this artist. I've loved his songs for a long time but finally bought one of his cds. White Ladder has taken up near permanent residence in my cd player.
12million albums? And I still have never heard of this guy.
but I live in a hole, so what else is new?
