I chose this song just so that I could tell this story about when I saw The Essex Green live, but that story involves another song by them (Sixties, a song that I love infinitely more than this one). I don't feel like posting that song today, so you get this one, and no story.

You should feel lucky, because this song is smooth, smooth like butter. Buttery goodness. It's good for driving, turned up loudly, and it's good for earphones, listening to fingers slide across strings, and the way their voices rise together. All in all this is a pretty genius song.

Before they released this album (in 2006) they streamed it online for free. I listened, and at the half-way point I ordered the album from them (though I could have easily downloaded it) and wrote a little review on one of my former journals saying this is going to be the bestest album ever. They actually found me on MySpace (from my site they had to have followed at least three links to get to it so they definitely searched me out) and left a comment thanking me for the kind words I said about them on my journal. It was pretty sweet of them.

Too bad my story about Sixties is about how they pissed me off big time at their concert but that's for another time.
