I woke up again with a song in my head, and this is it. I have a morning ritual that involves stretching, making myself breakfast, and reading news online. Some days, sitting in my listening room with a song can be more relaxing and energizing than stretching or a hearty breakfast.
I first saw Emily Haines play at Cafe du Nord last year. The show was great! They played their songs in time with a movie projected behind them. The movie was actually clips of a director's work, chosen to accompany each song. Each song began with its title projected on the screen, and made for an interesting blend of mellow music and old-timey silent film.
This album was my soundtrack for the whole of last year. While my recent playlists have been more up tempo and lighter in subject matter, some days nothing can get my spirits up than an awkward dirgy little number from this album.
