Sounds Like Confusion


I was just sitting here, minding my own business...returning some emails, aimlessly surfing the web, when this song came on via the shuffle mode. I love Jenny Owens Youngs, and have probably proclaimed said love on this space several times before, but apparently it had been awhile since I had heard this gem off of her 2005 'Batten The Hatches' LP, because it stopped me cold.

God bless the great songwriters for being able to take the anguish and confusion that we have ALL felt at one time or another and put it into a catchy 4 minute pop song. I am in awe of this skill.

Transmitter Failure


I am admittedly late to the Jenny Owen Youngs party, but now that I am here, I think I'll stick around for a bit. Her new record is called 'Transmitter Failure' and it drops in stores on May 26th. I have listened to it excessively, and I LOVE it. She reminds me so much of Aimee Mann, in all the best sorta ways.

Here are two tracks, the first if off of the brand new record, the second is off of her 'Batten The Hatches' release from 2005.

* 'Clean Break' MP3

* 'Fuck Was I' MP3
