Touching the Ground

So this past week was extremely hectic, but throughout it one thing stayed constant: the song playing in my car.

Brandi Carlile released her third album a couple of weeks back and since then I've listened to it every day. The song Touching the Ground is currently my favorite.

"You could sing an army of angels to sleep, with songs that could cause the devil to weap". I feel exactly the same about Brandi's voice. This woman sings so well and with so much passion that if she sang on the phone she just might be the one to get the telemarketers to shut up.

"Now those eyes are fillin' with rain, bringing me misery givin' me pain". This is my second favorite lyric of the song. I absolutely love this song. Its mellow without being boring and it flows along so well that when its over I immediately have to go back to the beginning.

Clearly my infatuation with Brandi Carlile and her music is not going away anytime soon, but for my next post I think I'll talk a little about my newest music discovery; William Fitzsimmons. Until then I highly recommend going out and getting Brandi and the Boys' new record. It will be a window into what music can really be.
