Tender Mercies - Glen Hansard and Eddie Vedder.

When Eddie toured years ago, he had Glen Hansard as his support. I got tickets at the last minute. I got stuck in traffic and couldn't find a park in St Kilda and walked into Glen Hansard ripping it out full ball on his last song. I was wanting so much to see him play, and I only got the last song. I'd seen him play the Recital Centre and he was just phenomenal. If you're ever able to see him, it's worth it .... Eddie was great, but I was actually looking forward to Glen Hansard more. They then recorded this album (which I think is a film soundtrack), that features this song.
