A toast -- to -- the lot of you...
just gotta review this thing. It’s already made me smile and broken my heart too many times to not give it its due. And yeah, I’m still playing it. Thank eMusic again for the freebie that opened the door here. And to think I almost deleted it. Out came this crabbed voice that sounded like Dave Bazan trying to sound like Jonathan Richman. Which is also to say, my first and understandable reaction was, “Is this guy even trying to sing?” But I let it live a bit longer. Then about a minute in, the awkwardness began giving way to atmosphere, suddenly rapturing you up into the chorus as you realize “He sure as heck is singing. And why the heck am I tearing up, anyway???” And thus was my intro to “Iris,” the song that opened the gates to all things Scattered Pages.... For the rest of the story.... http://burninglight.motime.com/post/703367
