Sparkstember Day 23: Two Hands, One Mouth (The Wedding Of Jacqueline Kennedy To Russell Mael)

Love this album... It's still pretty fresh to me since I only got round to it earlier this summer, so I'll just keep this one brief and say that:

1) This whole tour seems so magical and special and honestly everyone who got to see these shows has won at life by my standards

2) Love Ron's piano with this sort of echoing sound, it's so specific to Sparks. This whole thing is like the pure essence of their work. Ron's keyboard mastery, Russell's voice which you can hear so clearly, the emotional impact is at its highest maybe, all in all what else could you want. This is going to be my go-to wind-down / chillout / whatever else I should call it album I can already tell, it's actually already helped me with such thing before, so. The soothing power of Sparks is at its best here

3) We need more Sparks live albums.

Not rambling about my favs individually this time because it's songs we know and love from other places anyway. So, some of my biggest highlights are Metaphor, Sherlock Holmes (holy shitttttt), Good Morning, My Baby's Taking Me Home (<3 <3 <3), Singing In The Shower, Dick Around, The Rhythm Thief... and the titular track (its studio version is also just ✨️✨️✨️, peak!!)
