David Gray song lyrics

The story of English singer/songwriter David Gray is the classic scenario of overnight success that took years to happen. He emerged in the early '90s as an acoustic-based performer, heavily influenced by old-school troubadours Bob Dylan and Van Morrison. After a few fine but financially unsuccessful albums, he finally broke through to the mainstream in 1999 with White Ladder, an album that saw Gray's singer/songwriter aesthetic organically meshed with a contemporary electronica-flavored sound.
