"I like that hint of the West Coast of Ireland in his diction. It's beautiful."
Fiachna Ó Braonain, RTE Radio 1, Ireland

'House With Yellow Windows' is the 3rd single from Martin Praetorius' forthcoming album 'It's OK, I'm still laughing!' and is scheduled for release on October 1st 2021.
 
The 'House With Yellow Windows' is a house in Galway and the location of many a fine house-concert in the city. It's the kind of house that opens its doors to the musicians all day, there's food and drink, banter and music.
In the evening, the big living room fills up to the last seat with the most attentive and curious audiences for a night of bliss.

lyrics

House With Yellow Windows
 © Praetorius/Svendsen/Jesperson

 
We took the old road to the city
As we left the dual carriageway behind
With every house and sign we passed
This feeling in my heart was realigned
 
I've always been dreaming
Now I can clearly see
The house with yellow windows
Is waiting for me
 
The times we spent together
The friends we made, with laughter and with song
It seems like an eternity
Though it hasn't been that long
 
Now I am returning
To the city by the sea
Where the house with yellow windows
Is waiting for me
 
I've always been dreaming
Now I can clearly see
The house with yellow windows
Is waiting for me
