This Is Where i Came In

someone mentioned that this song fit snugly in the new Jarvis album to enhance its listenability. the only version i've ever had is a radio tape that i transfered to digital format. does anyone have a clean version they'd be willing to share (i've exhausted all my options as far as buying the Alpha single...)

Sending now, let me know if it works, 'cos it's from my iTunes library. If it won't work I'll re-save it with realplayer or something tomorrowish...

I lurk a fair amount and I often read of this mysterious and wonderful account. How does one gain access?

belated thanks james.  this is much better than the hissy tape i converted to mp3, complete with the dj stepping on the fade-out with, 'why do women find jarvis cocker attractive?  i don't know...'

did jarvis write any of this?  i quite like it since i put it in with the jarvis tracklisting  (as per Fuss Free's recommendation.)  anyone have any information about it?

It was originally recorded by the great Richard Harris, and was written by the great Jimmy Webb. Great stuff.

What Sturdy said...

 I remember reading an interview somewhere where Jarvis said he'd been trying to record that song for ages, but the vocals proved to be too difficult. I forget what it was that he said he did, but it seems one day, for one take, he made it happen. 

 The Alpha version was originally released as a B-side, if I'm not mistaken. But it re-surfaced again last year on an Alpha retrospective compilation called "Properly Chilled".
