dave and the boys.
i'm listening to dave mathews.i'm rather fond of the musical stylings of dave and his band.
the sheer volume of talent in that group is astounding, especially all the elements beyond dave himself.
i think wow.
now the last couple of albums i haven't heard, i know that they had started going towards a more pop sound, a few songs on "these crowded streets" were very pop, but the majority weren't, and i loved that album.
i've also noticed that pop has moved a little towards dave's sound, gravelly voice, a little jazz/blues.
i don't listen to these other bands, because quite frankly they don't compare.
i've caught a video here, a song on the radio there, niether of which i seek out.
the current album i'm listening to is "crash"
which is probably my favorite, i love all the slow songs, and the fast songs.
it's the only album that makes me want to find the company of the fairer sex and spend the day in intimate distraction with them.
today would be a good day for it, it's cold and snowy.
it would be preferred.
"Where Are You Going
Where are you going,
with your long face pulling down?
Don’t hide away,
like an ocean
But you can’t see,
but you can smell
And the sound waves crash down
I am no superman
I have no answers for you
I am no hero, oh that’s for sure
But I do know one thing for sure
Is where you are,
is where I belong
I do know, where you go,
is where I want to be
Where are you going,
where do you go?
Are you looking for answers,
to questions under the stars?
If along the way you are growingweary,
you can rest with me until a brighter day
It’s okay,
where are you going,
where do you go?
I am no superman
I have no answers for you
I am no hero, oh that’s for sure
But I do know one thing for sure
Is where you are,
is where I belong
I do know, where you go,
is where I want to be
Where are you going,
where do you go?
Are you looking for answers,
where do you go?
Where are you going?
Where do you go?
Let’s go."

"Crash" is kind of a nasty song. I like The DMB
crash is a delightfully nasty song, there is no "kinda" about it. what makes it so "delightful" though is the fact that they never resort to crude tactics. word play, inuendo are the name of the game.
about half of the songs on the cd are full of that very thing: two step, #41, tripping billies. i heard dave say crash was a love song of a voyuer, whereas the song crush off his next cd was a love song for his girl.
I love Crash...and #41...but for whatever reason...I love Typical Situation.
Just passing through...
