					<description><![CDATA[I don&#8217;t write a lot of what you&#8217;d call love songs. Broken hearts, betrayals, disillusionment, dissolution, self-destruction, simmering anger&#8230; that&#8217;s my turf. They didn&#8217;t call me the Bard of Bitterness, Denial, and Regret for nothin&#8217;&#8230; But this is a love song. And I&#8217;ve always had a soft spot for it. This version is a little [&#8230;]]]></description>

Everything seems more real, more vivid, more 3D. You look around as though it&#8217;s the last time you&#8217;re ever going to see familiar surroundings&#8230; and in a way, you&#8217;re right. Nothing will ever [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[The version of Emily below borders on punk folk, at least in relation to how I normally play the song. This version is faster, edgier, looser&#8230; but it&#8217;s still fingerpicked, midtempo.
