song of the moldau
well here we go my friends; your last christmas gift from me this year is the Song of the Moldau, written by Bertolt Brecht and Hanns Eisler and based on a old czech folk song. we recorded this all in one big room together, me and my pals. this is my favourite reminder of the inevitability of shift and change and hope. merry christmas to you all.

Love this song! I have 3 or 4 versions of it… one is from the Riot Life demo, and another is a live rendition of it recorded in Bremen in 2007.
Thanks for the Christmas gifts, Veda…!
Hope you and your family have a great time!
