46. Counting Crows – August & Everything After 1/3/2011
Let’s kick back into our listening efforts of 2011 with one of those time capsule albums from my past. Released in 1993, this was one of those albums I spent lots of time listening to whilst playing video games or riding my bike singing every single word. Round here she has trouble acting normal and she’s nervous. Lots of good stuff on this album. I like some of the Counting Crows efforst post this debut disc, but nothing got me as good as this disc got me at the time. Mr Jones still hits hard 20ish years later for me, love this song. I’d love to strike up a conversation with Mr Jones or be a fly on the wall while he strikes up a conversation with a black haired flamenco dancer. All of the beautiful colors are very very meaninful. Grey is my favorite color. I felt so symbolic yesterday. Also convinced it can’t get any worse than a 430AM on a Tuesday, yet I’d love to fall asleep in a perfect blue building at least once. It’s raining in Baltimore 50 miles east. I need a phone call and a rain coat.
