llcoolvadI get mad pretty quickly, but I usually get over it fairly quickly too. Often all it takes is a meal. Today it took a song on my car radio, "Is There a Ghost" by Band of Horses. It's got exactly three lines of lyrics, repeated over and over:
I could sleep
I could sleeeeeeeep,
I could sleep
I could sleeeeeeeep,
When I lived alone...
Is there a ghost in my house?
When I lived alone...
Is there a ghost in my house?
I could sleep...
Makes it easy to sing along! I wonder if someone bet him that he couldn't write a song with just 14 words. The video's really cute, too.
Their MySpace page has a couple more songs, and they've got a bunch of clips on YouTube. Turns out I already know and like "The Funeral" (it reminds me somehow of Jeff Buckley) and just this minute started liking "No One's Gonna Love You" (warning, live noodling). And hey, they're at Paradise in Boston on Wednesday!
That never happens to me! I always notice a band two days after they played in my back yard. I probably won't go, but it's nice to know at least I have the option.
