Favorite Tracks: Sex Love And Honey, Careful What You Wish For, The Snake And The Crown

I only recently listened to this cd. My friend kept pressuring me into listening to it, I went in having no idea what it would sound like or if it would be something I liked. Luckily, I was pleasantly surprised.

What I heard was a very unique sound of guitar, piano, and a diverse track list.

Each song stands out with character, some sound sad like "Careful What You Wish For" and some have fast lyrics resembling hip hop like "The Less I Know".

The cd always feels accessible, anybody could get into it. But each time you listen to it, you kinda pick out things you really like from the cd. First time I listened to it I hated The Snake And The Crown but it is now one of my favorites. Why? Because each song seems to have something special about them. The lyrics and the sound of the song mesh so well.

Take "Yellow Brick Road" for example. It seems like a laid back song due to the guitar, and wouldn't you know it, the lyrics are laid back and are talking about child hood pasts.
Course' I just got the cd. So I could find different meanings for things.

And that's a good thing. A great cd is one you want to listen to again, and again, and again.

Check it out.
