The King Of Rome by The Unthanks

“My final jam for 2 reasons 1) It never fails to bring a tear to my eye and 2) Back in the days when I did a radio show I finished my last ever show with this song ( listen here-https://www.mixcloud.com/GoingUnderground/going-underground-22nd-april-2013-part-2/ ) so it kind of feels a fitting way to say goodbye to TIMJ. I'm now over on Let's Loop and God's Jukebox. Same user name. See ya there”

The Unthanks + The Brighouse and Rastrick Brass Band = Amazing.   1

Brass bands, man's inability to fly and a tear-jerking story about homing pigeons. What's not to like?   1

You can't beat sisters singing harmony. This one moved me to tears the first time I heard this

The Unthanks with the Brighouse and Rastrick Brass Band. People listening to this have a tendency to get something in their eye . It is, quite simply, glorious.

Perhaps my favourite ever song about a pigeon.   1
