greatbearI'm not sure why I like this band. Singing in a bass-baritone voice that borders on some sort of parody, lyrical flow that smacks of non-sequitur, even the band name does not seem very serious. Maybe because they're Canadian. But I do. This is the opening track "Songbird" from the Crash Test Dummies new CD Oooh La La. It just works for me somehow.
Crash Test Dummies - Songbird
Something seems sort of gentle and calming about this tune. Maybe it's the lush production or the simple lyrics that seem to be diagonally opposing themselves. Or maybe it's Brad Roberts' unconventional voice. Give it a listen, see what you think.
N.B.: I have to go back and re-code my music posts, I had been using a third party embeddable music player which keeps getting lost. I'm hosting everything on my own server now, at least I can be in complete control and not have my entries broken unexpectedly.
