It was only done solo, and only 4 times, I believe. If you listen carefuly, though, you can hear it being played as the outro to Cigarette Lit. I wish Kantar would have put my tab up before he stopped doing user submitted tabs, it's so tireing to keep posting my tab!

I heard it at a Dave and Tim show, Tim broke a string and went off stage so Dave played it solo. He told us we could name it but he says 'Hold me down' several times before the chorus so I figured that was the name of it. I don't believe the song has ever been recorded or released officially. It's a beautiful song though.

I think it's one of Dave's best songs, imo. It's chorus did turn up as an outro to Cigarette Lit.
