Although the confluence of two relatively great musicians should be a good thing, I found "Call It Stormy Monday" somewhat boring, like a jam session just past 4:00 AM.

"Orange" is a rather subdued, but an interesting electro-acoustic piece. The section with the electric guitar aside, this is not bad at all.

The entire song is actually played on electronic violin. The guy performs with his violin in public in a couple of cities in England, and includes all the effects by himself. I was pretty impressed when I first heard of him. I mean, wikipedia even says he carved his own violin with a kitchen knife, though whether that's true or not remains to be seen.

You know blues is my favourite genre. You know how great I think it is. But Ed is fucking crazy, man. The guy is a virtuoso. I've seen him busking, and it is a bloody experience. The guy is just crazy talented.

This was a fucking hard choice, but I had to go with Ed.

I could listen to Orange all day long, best track i've encountered in this contest so far
Music is a mysterious thing. Sometimes it makes people remember things they do not expect. Many thoughts, feelings, memories... things almost forgotten... Regardless of whether the listener desires to remember or not.
