Lyrics

Well I followed him to the station, with a suitcase in my hand
Followed him to the station, put him on the train
It's hard to tell, hard to tell, when all your love's in vain
All my love's in vain

Well the train left the station, had two lights on behind
Train left the station, two lights on behind
The red light was my baby, the blue light was my mind
All my love's in vain

Well I followed him to the station, with a suitcase in my hand
Followed him to the station, put him on the train
It's hard to tell, hard to tell, when all your love's in vain

Review:

Stealth Munchkin are two guys, a girl and a 4 track from England who make great music together. No, it's not the best recorded stuff you've ever heard, but I'd give a thousand years in a professional recording studio for one instant of Rebecca Malings voice - she's that good, even on simple blues numbers like this.

Review:

lo-fi blues. no frills. no explosions and an altogether too common theme. I guess maybe
it's just me these days but I identify with this song. I'm still standing at the station, holding
this damn bag, and the train left two days. Sure this song could've been prettied up
but I liked the "old" feel of it. Seems more genuine as a blues tune.

Review:

Being a fan of the blues, and living in England for awhile, I understand somewhat what Stealth Munchkin is trying to do. This track almost seems to have a sound like it was ripped from an old 78 rmp record. Lo-fi and basic, yet the simplicity gives it it's quality. If you like old blues, done in a no frills execution, then I suggest having a listen to this track!
