Annie-Dog has released their new single ‘Please Forgive Me, David Gray’ via Dance To The Radio.
The track marks the third preview of their upcoming EP ’15’, which arrives next month through the Leeds-based label, also home to Ellur, Far Caspian, and Terra Twin.
“Like every Irish person my age, I was brought up on David Gray’s White Ladder album,” Annie-Dog explain. “My parents rinsed it constantly, and Please Forgive Me was always a favourite.
“I made ‘Please Forgive Me, David Gray’ on GarageBand, and, really, I just made it for me. I didn’t put too much thought into it. And I definitely didn’t think I’d ever share it. I suppose I wanted to insert myself into the song, because I love it. I wanted to be a part of the song’s world.
“I hadn’t ever properly covered a song before making ‘Please Forgive Me, David Gray’, and I haven’t since. It’s not usually my bag. I like writing my own songs. It’s what drives me creatively. But remaking somebody else’s tune turned out to be a lot of fun. I’ve been playing ‘Please Forgive Me, David Gray’ at my live shows as of late, and I’ve been asked so many times to put it online. So here it is. Annie-Dog meets David Gray.”
