Song of the Month May 2019: Harmony Hill

Vampire Weekend is killing it with their opening lines, of late. In this case:

We took a vow in summertime
Now we find ourselves in late December

There’s a great pre-chorus too:

Anger wants a voice
Voices wanna sing
Singers harmonize
‘Til they can’t hear anything
I thought that I was free
From all that questioning
But every time a problem ends
Another one begins

It’s a bit repetitive but that’s par for the course with music right now. (Kids today!)

The video is filled with bugs. Not recommended for anti-bug people.

Also, this version has extended solos that are not what I’ve been hearing on the radio.

SKS Postcard: Elmaro Vineyard

Two things have conspired to drop a lot of SKS postcards in my box of late.

  1. Sara & Shawn are moving, which means they are doing a lot of last-gasp trips in the Minnesota vicinity.
  2. Moving means cleaning things out, and Sara got rid of a lot of postcards by sending them to me.

I’m pretty lucky, eh?

This came from a winery with tasty wine and a great atmosphere. S&S had an impromptu overnight because their regular Sunday commitment has come to an end.
