Worried Shoes

[Audio clip: view full post to listen]
I took my lucky break and I broke it in two
Put on my worried shoes
My worried shoes
And my shoes took me so many miles and they never wore out
My worried shoes
My worried shoes

New Old Sounding Song
Monday, May 24th, 2010
My friend, Dennis, clued me in to this band over the weekend. I guess they’re from California, and they sound like older Southern Easy-Rock (see also, Midlake – The Trials of Van Occupanther). I’ve wanted to find a reason not to like them, because they definitely aren’t new music. They have a fair amount of [...]

I could use a nap, but I’ll work instead. I’ll listen to this album to make it seem like I’m in a very restful repose.
New Album Excitement
Saturday, April 17th, 2010
On repeat, over and over. The little guitar riff-wavey-thingy throughout is so simple and so perfect.

Holy cow, who is this girl? I stumbled upon her on Tumblr today and it stopped me in my tracks. Of course, I was sitting in my chair so there wasn’t a lot of stopping to do.

I am seeing this man in concert in an old chapel at the end of this month. If he plays this live, I’ll either cry or die.
