No, now I was killed by "Silver haired daddy of mine" :cry: That's such a beautiful song :wub:

Crying right now...

Music video is interesting but I was waiting for something to happen!

Anyone seen the lyric to Put My Little Shoes Away? :( Oh!

i kinda wish they would alternate parts or at least harmonize or something... both of them singing the same line is nice but kinda boring

Silver Haired Daddy Of Mine is so beautiful (as others have said)...Really...I can't wait for the album.

That's the way the Everly brothers did it.

For his birthday last year I made my Dad a CD of songs which tried to show what he meant to me, just wished Silver had been out a year earlier, would have been perfect!

Pre-ordred the CD and vinyl! :) Just need the cassette to come into stock now!

Damn that's a good song (Silver Haired Daddy). Beautiful lyrics. Well done Everlys. Thanks Billie & Norah for introducing this to me :)

I hope Billie Joe gets some songwriting tips from this experience.

I hope Billie Joe gets some songwriting tips from this experience.

And use them for writing songs for 'Those paper bullets' musical ;)

Has anyone in the UK preordered the vinyl from the UK site yet? Do they charge you straight away? I never get how preorders work, I really want to grab it now but haven't got anything in my account

You pay now and get it on the day of release (hopefully)

I haven't pre-ordered this yet in hopes it will be my Christmas present. :P

Silver Haired Daddy is pretty much Red River Valley, isn't it? I suppose maybe it was the go-to melody for this kind of sorrowful song. I like Red River better - it has a sad romantic cowboy instead of a poor old guy sitting in a vine-covered shack waiting for death, lol!! Also I wanna know what were the awful things the narrator did to prematurely age his poor old dad, and why he doesn't get off his ass and do something to cheer old dad up - take him out on the town ffs, man!!

I'm listening to this and I'm like, dear god, this is mawkish, but such is the nature of these songs - grim and sentimental. I think the light touch of Billie and Norah's interpretation gives a little swish of humor to it.

The project was (from the beginning) to introduce us again this album. I see no reason to change the style.
