The Airportline: Observations

So it's Saturday again and time for another song. The 23rd of March 2005 I made a mix-cd to my sister with the somewhat mushy and melodramatic title ‘From One Heart To Another’. It consisted of 15 songs with motivations. The forthcoming 15 Saturdays I will present one of these songs per week with the motivations translated into English, so that you always have a song I thought was great in March of 2005 to listen to as you begin the weekend. This is song number 7 in the series, which took a break the two past Saturdays. My motivation for this José González song was:

An artist that both me and my sister has liked for a long time, this is one of his best songs, and a song where his development as a lyricist really shows. Here he takes a step from the vague lyrics of his breakthrough album Veneer as he puts the cards on the table. A song about a confrontation in relationship hasn't bitten this hard in a long time. (At that point I did not know that this is a Kylie Minogue cover)
