I should be studying right now. I was listening to some music, which of course made me think of songs that I want to put on my blog. One band that I really love is Fleet Foxes. I know most, if not all, of my friends from Hill Street have heard me rave about this band a few summers ago and so I apologize to them for continuing my promotional efforts of Fleet Foxes.
You'll notice most of the songs have a folksy feel to them except the last song "Textbook Love". This song is cut from different cloth. In fact I think this track actually reminds me of some of U2's early stuff in that Textbook Love is a story about boy meets girl, is energetic, and is earnest, if not unpolished. I think all of these things just add to the appeal of the song for me. I love the others songs on the playlist too. I would write more about them but I think they speak for themselves better than I can describe them at this point in the evening. Enjoy!
I hadn't heard Textbook Love - do they have new music out now? It's really different from what I've listened to from them before! (But I like it.)
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you like it :) They are working on a new album but this track actually predates their more folky stuff. On another note - I hope you had a good birthday! We need to catch up again soon :)
ReplyDeleteJase, I like this very much.
