Hi Daniel,

Thanks.

So do I...but I really don't see it adding much to AENT...there are already 
tons of layers of sound and especially on the nearly pristine "Song for the 
asking", I just find it takes away from the simplicity and fragile beauty of 
the song.

I can see your point of view but there are already sooo many slow songs this 
one is really the one that puts the nail in the coffin for me...the straw 
that broke the camel's back...had it been one of two slow songs on AENT, I 
could have lived with it and probably would have like it...now, I'd rather 
it be a pretty, albeit damn slow, B-side...

Take care,
Hans
