Even if I didn't love this lady hardcore, the fact that Lulu and the Cutthroats make such excellent music is reason enough to love them. Go listen. No, seriously, go.
This is the first song of theirs I've heard. I listened to it tonight, while standing on the back of a ferry while my nose went numb, and I couldn't stop the feels. Because, fuck. I really, really love music.
Tonight, my face went numb as I huddled into my coat, and connected with a song that made me feel empty - but in a good way, like all the angst and crazy emotion had been wrung out of me. As if I could remember the slow burn of guitars spun out against the horizon, hovering in the early heat, the way a relationship felt in the winter, windburned, weathered and harshened and raw with untraveled corners. My story worn, and my jeans tattered and ripped. And he, she, they were a name -- sometimes mine, sometimes not. A name between us. In the dark, they were just hands -- but they weren't, they were his.her.their hands, and that’s what made all the difference.
Music is at its best like a Kōan; there is no correct response to it, no predetermined outcome that is “winning”. You take out of it what you need to, you leave behind you the things that most need leaving, and emerge bruised, hoarse, enlightened.
