Emily breaks through the media noise to the reality of the situation with a very personal story of a mother, worn out and broken, praying to her god for salvation and mercy. There’s a lovely warmth to the sound of this recording, no doubt helped by her choice of studio: Urchin Studios — the London-area studio where Laura Marling tracked Short Movie several years earlier.
She makes it a human story…with her emotive voice at the forefront, it’s a powerful, empathetic and moving song – the kind of song you can imagine Joan Baez singing, let’s hope this one reaches as many ears, it deserves to.
