The Airportline: Observations

A few months ago I was encouraged to answer various questions concerning the 30 most listened to artists on my last.fm profile. During a feverish June evening I wrote more or less thoughtful answers to these questions which I amid to publish on Facebook at some point. That point never came, since I never do what I intend on doing. So, now I will make a new plan (which I most likely will fail to adhere to as well) and publish some of these short texts on airportline instead. With videos. Here is the fifth post in this new series.

What is your favorite song by 5 (Stars)?
Your Ex-Lover is Dead. One of my all time favorite songs. It revolves around two people that once had a relationship who meet again and realize that it meant nothing. It all comes together with beautiful strings, and when Amy Millan (who recently released her second solo album) enters with here soft voice and sings 'this scar is a flack on my porcelain skin, trying to reach deep but couldn't get in' its an example of how pop music with one male and one female singer create a tension that would not feel misplaced in an Ingmar Bergman movie.
