Something I've always loved about Randy is how he can make a bouncy, cheerful sounding song, like Great Nations, that becomes so heartbreaking when you actually listen to the lyrics. Sail Away and Burn On do a similar thing, but they're slow and beautiful rather than bouncy and cheerful.
Harken: You fought with Captain Reynolds in the war? Zoe: Fought with a lot of people in the war. Harken: And your husband? Zoe: Fight with him sometimes, too.

Buffista Music III: The Search for Bach
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Anyone here listening to Feist? She is in heavy rotation on KCRW and that means her music is probably on a lot of ads and soundtracks I don't know about, as there's a lot of spillover from KCRW playlists. I just got her new CD and am liking it--like Amy Winehouse on 'ludes. She's an interesting songwriter and is also playing around with sound a lot.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
eMusic has one song by her - on the Folk Off compilation. [link] I'll have to grab that when I get home.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!
There's a new Feist album out. Which I see now Robin just said. It's pretty swank. Her earlier album(s) are also worth looking in to.

I have to say, I wasn't a big fan of her last album, but I'm liking her new single. My friends saw her perform last year and were blown away.

Hey, David: Michaelangelo Matos compares The Clientele to the Auteurs in this review. Figured you'd like that.

They played a small club here a couple of weeks ago and I'm kicking myself for missing them. Word from people I trust who went was that they were very good.

I'm leaning towards fucking excellent, based on Cryptograms.
