Cattle and the Creeping Things by The Hold Steady
The Horn Law applies here… but only after that pounding guitar and Craig Finn's voice kick everything off. I know at first his voice seems like the worst thing ever, but honestly, I love it. It's a fantastic story telling voice and Craig Finn tells great stories. The fact that he's got a kick ass back up band only helps. I don't know about anyone else, but I feeling like drinking when I hear this song. I also wish I had nights like Craig Finn more often. He meets so many interesting people and does so many interesting things!
Listen:
And an acoustic MP3 (it's pretty cool)
It is pretty cool.
ReplyDeleteI like the acoustic version cause I can understand/hear the lyrics, which is pretty important to me.
ReplyDeleteI have The Hold Steady - Hot Soft Light from a Paste Magazine Sampler, but I don't know it very well. YET.
BO do you know who McKenzie Phillips is?
