Here's a new good song: "Another Trip Around The Sun" by Lowrie. This track has been on my playlist for several weeks but not featured on this blog because I felt like Lowrie was laying it on a little too thick -- such depressing lyrics, over such dreary music, with such melodramatic mini-climaxes. And, believe me, I love me some depressing music. But after repeated listens, the song has really grown on me, and now I find it effective and a special achievement. The songwriting is clever and has some lovely details, and the vocals also work well. Yes, it's sad, and it won't be everyone's cup of tea, but give it a listen!
