First I would like to say that I have loved this album since I first got it back in 2005. It reminds me of the many summer nights spent with special people driving up and back Absecon Island with nothing but the sweet taste of innocence fleeting from our lips. I realized while driving the other night my affinity for Swedish music. Lykke Li, PB&J, Husky Rescue, Jose Gonzalez, Belle and Sebastian, (and I believe) Camera Obscura among others and others and others. But these have been on my list for frequent listening as of late. While musically (at least) have managed to cling to the past -- Otis Redding make me want to locate a time machine and pick out my 'fro -- I have started to cling to other things... like my love of what is basically a 9 to 5 schedule, the sound of my heels clicking against the tile floor while I walk up to my office in the morning--coffee in hand, wearing pencil skirts, and research assignments though I've always sort of enjoyed those. I wake and retire to my bed both in early hours. I like things this way. My life is becoming ever so simple. I don't seek to change it any time soon.
