I’ve never heard your music before, but it’s almost freakish how much i hear the mountain goats in your music. It’s like discovering a B-sides album where john darnielle picked up a ukulele.

Huggie: I hope many more people will hear his music in future.

Hobbit: Absolutely true. That’s why I just ignore most lyrics. There’s a definitely flavour of ‘I’m just going with the vibe, man’ about too many lyrics.

cbf: Not much of a fan of DJ Kool? I’m glad you’re enjoying it despite yourself.

i really don’t want to like this gentlemans music, i find his voice annoying and am not much of a fan of his influences, but his lyrics are well crafted and although he can’t really sing it really does bring a nice kind of honest quality to his music,
reluctantly i find myself very much enjoying it ^^,

“I re-work my lyrics dozens of times until I find exactly the right syllable patterns and adjectives and allusions and alliteration and all of those sorts of literary devices.”

Man, I could make *such* a list of “songwriters” who should pay attention to this.

(Not that I’m the definitive example of proper songwriting.)

But I get *so* tired of doggerel when just a little extra thought…
