Written with Gary Thom who started the tune off after we had listened to Malcolm Ross's recording of Gene Clark's Tried So Hard.
Brother Love was later the opening song to the Redemptions show with Lach, Paul Hullah and Martin Metcalfe in 2017.
Released on Indietracks 2009 – an indiepop compilation CD
My favourite though doesn’t sound like indiepop at all; The Company Presents Roy Moller’s Brother Love is catchy hoedown, all fiddles, yodels and refried beans. soundsxp.com
lyrics
Brother Love...
Chorus:
Brother love, brother love – when you gonna find me?
Brother love, brother love – when you gonna find me?
I’m sitting home all alone, you sit on your cornerstone
You can’t find a telephone to call me
I A take a walk, take a shower, reading bibles by the hour
I got hope, have you got the power to heal me?
(Chorus)
Catch the train, catch the bus, no one seems to smile much
Can a smile cost so much it matters?
Try to do the best I can, try to be a friendly man
When I smile they just throw me daggers
Brother love
(Chorus) x 2
Brother love, find me, my brother
Brother love, find me, my brother
Brother love
Find me, find me, find me, find me
