Slightly O/T, but I just wanted to say that I went to see John Cale last week, and...well, if I can sing that well when I'm 69 I'll be a happy man; actually, if I could sing like that now it would be a massive improvement...

Very underappreciated vocalist i find. With all the furor over Hallelujah a while back, I had to play Cales version to a couple of people to convince them Jeff Buckley wasn't the be all and end all of it.
