I was given a lot of good advice on some new tunes but sorry, I ignored you all. Before the weekend I bought Final Fantasy’s new album, He Poos Clouds.
You may recall that I mentioned Final Fantasy once before. It is an almost one man band named after one of my favorite video games. Might not be as upbeat as I was asking for, sometimes it’s borderline tragic musical, but it is….lovely. No, wrong word. It is magical…but I guess I always think the violin is magical. Also, any time I find it a little too “heavy”, I only have to think of the album title and I smile. Poo. Heh. The third track, “This Lamb Sells Condos”, has been played many times in the past 3 days. I think I will play it many more times. Today it is raining and that song goes perfectly with the rain.

hey, good choice! I picked that album Kyoto some weeks back. It was weird finding a pretty small release like that on vinyl here. It’s a good album alright. My record player and records are now in Kyoto, I’m still in Takamatsu, so not much music loving going on at the moment

I don’t know the band at all, but the album came up in some conversation recently. “This Lamb Sells Condos” is a very Toronto reference - there’s some realtor called Brad Lamb who has that slogan up on benches and signs across the city. Just like that “Faith moves houses” slogan they have in Vancouver.
