Too Many Hands is one those slow, shapeshifting folk songs, where the lead melody comes out on top every single time, never mind who sings it. Songwriter Drew Danburry recorded five different versions with his band Icarus Phoenix and the one with he shares vocals with Josaleigh Pollett might be the best one.
The video uses footage from the classic movie The Last Time I Saw Paris and the lyrics fit the on-screen interaction between Elizabeth Taylor and Van Johnson like a glove. Do listen to the other four versions as well. You can't have too much of a good thing.
