Friday song of the day

[Snowbunny]

I only have Rejoicing In The Hands but man is it solid all the way through. Love it! You definitely need to get someone to send a copy to you! I have the Vetiver album with Devendra on it too and it is very cool as well.

How about that Vetiver/Vetiver? I gave it a listen last time I was at Zulu, but it didn't make it to the till even though it was a staff pick. And you know, I couldn't even find a slot for Arcade Fire - Funeral at the time. I've just heard the song Neighbourhood (Power Out) so far on The Year In Slosh: 2004. My impression? (Expressed in the key of Dustychalk), meh.

It's not as good as Rejoicing but it still has some very nice stuff on it. Looks like tentoze and myself are the only ones here who have talked about it. I said "Not quite as eclectic as Devendra Banhart's own stuff (he's one of the main performers, playing second guitar on most songs and singing backup and cowriting a couple songs with main guy Andy Cabic) but still very nice. Got a vibe a little along the lines of Slowdive, but more folkie. Guitar, banjo, cello, violin with the occasional drums, piano and even harp. Pretty fine job by all involved, even if it's not the most distinctive thing you've ever heard." Still, wouldn't be one of my top picks of the year but I'm glad I got it. Kind of a grower for me, but could use some more of that Banhart charm. I've a feeling that on his own, the Cabic guy is probably as boring as me

Marry Me - Drive-By Truckers

From the album Decoration Day

Not only is this a kick arse tune but it reminds me of when I proposed to my wife.

Bahahaha......NOT!

I just like the tune.

My song of the day is The Great Depression by The Jam.

I've been to 19 Joe Jackson concerts over the last 27 years, massive fan.
