Ditto. The world needs this music right now. Meditate, perspective. Less static would be great, on so many levels.

I like this cool, slightly creepy tune. Always nice to hear Aimee Mann in the mix too.

How about Still Waters or Perfect Day to Chase Tornadoes, Alabama Chrome, Buzzards of Love, If Jesus Drove a Motor Home? All great Jim White tunes and all better than this one.

Why do I think you are a Big Lebowski fan? You speak with the right nomenclature. {#Bounce}

Asked Aimee out once, just before she got really famous. Didn't even know who she was. One of the great regrets of my life, that she said no. But at least I ASKED!

Would have regretted it a lot more if I hadn't asked her................ 
 
That reminds me of when I walked past Wally Lamb on the street and couldn't get a word out. I still regret it! I love him.

I so tried to like the collection of Crews' short stories I picked up after watching Searching for the Wrong Eyed Jesus, but I just couldn't. Shame.
