i think voyageur has better songs than the smotheringly shit production allows you to hear at first. I like empty threat ("in the city i once said "never" i'm learning to say "never, never, never ever"" is a line that stings)

I think of “pink champagne” a lot

"Going to Hell", "House Full of Empty Rooms", "Chameleon/Comedian" and "A Soft Place to Land" are all mighty fine.

This new album is great.

She’s the absolute best tbh

I will genuinely give this a listen soon but I just wanted to say once more that "scared at night" is the best song ever

wow the second half of this kicks the everloving shit out of the first, which for me was mostly pleasant throat-clearing

From the start Kathleen Edwards has been one of the few songwriters really able to stop me in my tracks, to all but literally incapacitate me, and this new album is no exception. I can barely make it through a song because I want to start them over from the beginning again.

aw Jim Bryson <3

ditto

And by the way, I guess that means Colin Cripps is back in the band?

Speaking of whom, was this one ever posted?

Or this?

There is a another Quitters video on FB of a different performance.

I can just barely do it. Can't put my finger on why, but I can't think of another songwriter who so consistently breaks my heart.

I can spot your kind a million miles away

Lol etc at the NPR description accompanying this video:

the pet grieving one-two punch "Ashes to Ashes" -> "Who Rescued Who" is some amazing sequencing (not to mention very helpful to me recently)

it was driving me crazy but I finally realized what "Glenfern" reminds me of: Frente's cover of of Bizarre Love Triangle

now I just need to determine what very popular 90s song the guitar part in "Options Open" reminds me of. Anybody?

This album is ok. Better than Voyager but nowhere near Failer or Asking for Flowers. Too many twee songs about pets, for one thing.

these songs come out of nowhere and kick my ass emotionally

Listening to Asking for Flowers again right now. Really hitting the spot.

It's a beautiful record.

"Alicia Ross"

stops me in my tracks every time

that third verse
