Just got Hope For Men a few days ago. I don't like it as much as King of Jeans but it's got some cool songs AND, this particularly badass one.

Re: Your song/songs for the day?
I fucking love how that one kick kicks right in and starts smashing faces up. "I'VE GOT SOMETHING TO TELL YOU. I HOPE YOU DON'T TAKE IT WRONG. BUT YOU'VE GOT A SECRET ADMIRER, AND I THINK HE'S SINGING A SONG."
Also, overall, i really enjoy that singer's take on straddling that line between rockingthefuckout, and being awkward/creepy about it all.
I've Still Got You (Ice Cream), Fantasy World, Scrapbooking, etc. And tunes like Goodbye (Hair) from King Of Jeans, and I Broke My Own Heart from the first record(which i would totally poast a video of if there was one, because it is lyrically fantastic.)

Also, now i have to go listen to Pissed Jeans for the rest of the day.
She is very lovely. I have been liking this album more than I expected.

Now get the others.
I actually liked Marry Me more than Actor. At least at first. Don't know why. I should listen to all three in a row and make up my mind.
Oh, and she's playing here in May at the venue across from ze Snaxodrome.

Re: Your song/songs for the day?
I still find Actor to be my favorite. The brandy new one has been growing on me though. At this juncture, i may even like it a bit more than Marry Me. I think i just like the more recent ones mostly, because they have such a mean/broken edge to so many of the sounds.
I would definitely like to see her at some point. As she is basically going to be playing on your front porch, you will have to attend.

Umm, yes?
And thanks, by the way, for pointing me in her direction a couple years back. I've since spread the gospel to a whole bunch of people.

I first heard St. Vincent on the World Cafe on NPR because I am such a fucking cool guy.
