Ella Thomas This is an amazing version of The Ruts Babylon's Burning. The orchestral arrangement is superb I like the mix of electric guitar, electronic drums and full brass and string section. Louise's singing is fantastic those high notes - stratospheric coloratura it really works with the gravitas of orchestra Epic stuff. A joy.

No one ever told me life could be so cruel Now I'm looking back I feel such a fool What made you think you could act so low? But that's the past now I've got to go When I was younger I always made you feel strong I gave you so much now I know I was wrong You won't know what you had till I'm gone I should have seen it happening all along You really hurt me when you laughed that way I knew then the cold had taken you away I'd use a knife if I could cut you out but you will stay in here till my dying day Sitting all alone I watch the stars I'm an empty road you're a disappearing car If only only I was as weak as you But I'm not now so I guess we're through
