Since many of the posts have been heavily skewed towards funk, hip hop and soul, it'd probably be good to throw in something a little *spesh* or a little *diffrnt* for this week's edition of MUSIC MONDAYS.
SO YEP! Here's some good old roots music. Probably more on the folk & country side of things with a nice dash of.. well it's hard to describe. It's not pentecostal (think churchy or hymn-y) like Fleet Foxes and it's not celtic like Laura Marling but there's something slightly hypnotic and, dare I say; tribal, about Alela Diane's melody in this tune.
I really enjoy the lyrics in this tune - it's ambiguous who Alela Diane is singing about - is it an acquaintance? a sister? I like to think she's singing about herself in the third person, imagining what it'd be like to be a creature of pure desire.
It's a great album! y'all should check it out.
