Lag dagsins: Hið gullfallega Orange Sky með Alexi Murdoch, af smáskífunni Four Songs.
Alexi Murdoch á ættir sínar að rekja til Grikklands og Skotlands.Hann fæddist í London, ólst upp í Grikklandi til tíu ára aldurs, og eftir það í Skotlandi. Ætti ég að reyna að flokka tónlistina hans myndi ég lýsa henni sem indie-folk-kassagítar-trúbador-tónlist. Heimasíðan hans er hér. Ef þið smellið á multimedia má finna þar upptöku þar sem hann flytur lagið live með bandinu sínu, auk nokkurra í útvarpi. Einnig er viðtal við hann. Ég birti textann við lagið hér:

Orange Sky

Well I had a dream
I stood beneath an orange sky
Yes I had a dream
I stood beneath an orange sky
With my brother standing by
With my brother standing by
I said Brother, you know you know
It’s a long road we’ve been walking on
Brother you know it is you know it is
Such a long road we’ve been walking on

And I had a dream
I stood beneath an orange sky
With my sister standing by
With my sister standing by
I said Sister, here is what I know now
Here is what I know now
Goes like this..
In your love, my salvation lies
In your love, my salvation lies
In your love, my salvation lies
In your love, in your love, in your love

But sister you know I’m so weary
And you know sister
My hearts been broken
Sometimes, sometimes
My mind is too strong to carry on
Too strong to carry on

When I am alone
When I’ve thrown off the weight of this crazy stone
When I've lost all care for the things I own
That's when I miss you, that's when I miss you, that's when I miss you
You who are my home
You who are my home
And here is what I know now
Here is what I know now
Goes like this..
In your love, my salvation lies
In your love, my salvation lies
In your love, my salvation lies
In your love, my salvation lies
In your love, my salvation lies
In your love, my salvation lies
In your love, my salvation lies
In your love, in your love, in your love

Well I had a dream
I stood beneath an orange sky
Yes I had a dream
I stood beneath an orange sky
With my brother and my sister standing by
With my brother and my sister standing by
With my brother and my sister standing by
