This won't take long, which is a good thing

THIS IS BRUTAL
Six days, minimum ten hours each day (and I got the distinct feeling I should have stayed longer tonight, but a guy's gotta eat, and damnit, I am tired. And SORE.)

So, in the wake of Rocketstar's declaration of musical love, one of my own

I stumbled across Fleet Foxes in one of those "what is your absolute favourite song" threads that pop up on Reddit every now and again. I sift through these things with faint hope, because my taste in music (as my longtime readers know) is rather...unconventional.
The song that was linked: White Winter Hymnal. Twenty bars in I just melted; by the end of the day I'd bought one of their albums and downloaded two more (with their blessing). They have been in heavy, heavy rotation on my iPod. Supremely relaxing. Such lush harmony. Their best, for my money (can't embed, sorry):
The Cascades ( (instrumental)


Share and enjoy...

Not my cup of tea but great harmony's. Isn't music just the best, what would we do without it.

Did you know that premature babies--VERY premature babies, babies so premature they lack the instinct/ability to suck for nourishment--respond positively to music? It seems to be one of life's fundamentals.
