I’m Cheerleading Myself
The ramblings of an eccentric and strange wanderer in the music world.
My writing is far from scholarly. I write songs not soliloquies so it's mediocre at best. But I do so little of it now by the time there's new material it just seems profound.

Marvin Gaye – Sparrow
Heavily into this lately. From ”Here, My Dear” Released 1978

The National – 90 Mile Water Wall
“How could your hair have the nerve to dance around like that? Blowing. And how could the air have the nerve to blow your hair around like that?”

The National – Cardinal Song
If this doesn’t describe a few years of my life nothing can.

The Fool On The Hill
What can be said? This is a classic I started liking again because of the Avalanches.

Aqualung – Tongue Tied
Wicker Park ultimately led me to this band where I found this song. Weirdly enough discovering it at the beginning of one of my past relationships. It fit well then.

Keane – Allemande
Lovely song that seemed to have been tossed to the side at the time. Tragically beautiful.
