So when I was in my 3rd year of uni, my best friend came to Edinburgh to study at Napier Uni, and she moved in with us. More than once I’d walk past her room as this song came on, and there was something about the first few bars that did that thing that I can’t explain (for the sake of argument I’ll call it the squee!factor, but that’s not quite right). Every time I’d ask her, “who is that?” to which she’d reply, “The Music”, to which my response would be, “yeah, the music, who is it?”, to which she’d respond, “The Music”, to which I would reply, “yes. The music. Who is it??” &c. &c. to the point where it was a bit like a sketch except both of us were deadly serious and getting increasingly exasperated.
This only ended when I finally got the album. MONTHS later.
Actually, if you haven’t already, you should listen to the whole of this eponymous album. Because it’s AWESOME.
