Rach in real life

Over Christmas break, my dad asked me to find him a song so that he could dance with my mom (they are so in love…). He wanted Sea of Love, by the Honeydrippers. Because I had the iTunes account, I bought it for him. I couldn’t help but notice that Cat Power had covered it, and that it was quite popular. So, I checked it out and was automatically sucked in by Chan Marshall’s bare, enchanting vocals supported by nothing more than an autoharp. I know, sounds strange, but seriously. I don’t know how else to explain it other than it being romantically chilling. And I think that’s why I like it. It’s love. It’s beautiful, but it’s also painful, and sometimes it’s lonely.

It’s up on their myspace… go check it out
