Ma Dernière Affaire d'Amour Musicale


I cannot lie. I am not in the happiest of spirits because I desperately want to see Iron and Wine in NYC at Terminal 5 Monday, November 17th. Obviously, I can't go by myself, plus I underestimated the fare cost from Philly to NY by about $50. Yeah, not cool. If anyone is interested in going with moi, comment me or email me asap. To distract me from this recent sadness, I have enlisted a certain gentleman to make me feel better. Mr. Kweller was willing to help me.

I heart Ben Kweller. Chico introduced me to this musical wonder oozing with sunshine melodies. Mr. Kweller is dazzling, leading you to places that make you stop, and "Oh." Not a shocking "OH!", nor a sigh of an "oh". It is the kind of expression in which you find yourself presently surprised and satisfied at the marvel.

"Sundress" is a happy little ditty in which you will feel lonely the first time at hearing it because you'll want to learn the words to sing with him. Here is the live version (a little shakey, but still good):


"Commerce, Texas" reminds me of Stephen Kellogg and Old 97's(who are both AWESOME, by the way. Future post stars). This is a very cool song. Me like it.


He and I just began our love affair recently. I shall keep readers up to date of our latest endeavors. <333
