Wiggins is so superbly unassuming, he looks like he's about to say 'Pop the gold medal in the post, I'm nipping out for some biscuits'

It's still Polly,

Ludophonic covering "The Mystery Of Love" off Marianne Faithfull's Before The Poison album (I hope you all know Polly wrote, produced and played guitar on the original)!

^ This guy is REALLY talented. I remember being really impressed with his cover of Catherine. Listen to this carefully:

I don't normally get too excited about other artists covering Polly, but you're right, this guy is very good!

absolutely astounding! He has a whole slew of polly covers on that site. Most seem to be pretty rough takes but you gotta love the grittiness of them. I especially like this version of Last Living Rose! Hope he doesn't mind me linking it!

Well, this is one way to cover 'Send His Love To Me'. Extremely unusual to see a band doing a cover of Polly anyway in my country.

My band covering Dress. It's the third song in at 6:28 approximately. The song after that is an original, using an autoharp. :)
