The most fragile, touching moment from the 'Guerilla' album sees Gruff bearing his soul with little more than a husky vibrato and acoustic guitar for company.

'Fire In My Heart' is a deceptively simple two and a half minutes - vastly superior to Blur's overblown 'Tender' - which it echoes to some extent (thankfully no gospel choir here).

In fact the only complaint we have is that~ it's too short.

Fans of~ 'Northern Lites' may find it a little too laid back for their liking, but hey, open up to your sensitive, furry side and you'll be singing it on the bus before you know it.
