The speed of the sound of loneliness

This is a song I first heard at L’Abri in Switzerland way back in 2001, where a fellow would sing it as we all lounged the evenings away in the chalet, and recorded it on an album there and then (L’Abri has a history of music, and all the recording gear). Occasionally over the years I’ve gone looking on youtube for something a little more modern than Nanci Griffiths' version, and closer to how my L’Abri friend sang it (Nanci Griffiths was legendary in her time, but some things need updating). So, I’ve now found one. I haven’t the faintest idea who Amos Lee is, but I like it.
