Yes, the song is exquisite. I had not heard of it or even of Honeybus
altogether. I ended up spending the evening on the internet listening
to their music. It is a rare pleasure when one encounters an artist
for the first time and finds so much depth in their catalog. Perhaps
not so rare is the fact that their more commercial releases were (to
my taste, anyway) far from their best, while other tracks that
remained unreleased for decades turn out to be timelessly fresh and
have a striking artistic maturity. "Be Thou By My Side" is a wonderful
example. I think that "Big Ship" is another:
