Moods
Chilly breath of death
Thoughts
First time I heard this I was driving upstate late on a Friday night in winter. The empty roads, cold dry winter landscape outside with closed shops providing the only break in landscape seemed a fitting scene for this soundtrack.
I like his style: ethereal, nocturnal and dusky natural singing voice doused in reverb. I found the straightforward pop songwriting a bit boring as an album however.
The ‘we ain't getting any younger’ refrain has stuck with me, something particularly effective about it.
I plan to revisit this and more of his catalog in the future.
