A warmly romantic song lifted from the warmly received A Tale Of Two Cities album, Picture Of You finds Mr Hudson and the Library in wistful mood.

Given a subtle electronic makeover for its single release, the song combines loving yearning with lyrical vignettes, typical of the band. "Should time bring me fame or a touch of bling, imagine that - getting paid to sing!" he ponders in the second verse. It turns out that what really powers this author, however, is the picture of his loved one he carries everywhere.

Sweet - and simply done, with a nice line in piano counterpoint from Torville Jones to send it on its way. A tender song that will hopefully push more people in the direction of the debut album.
