About a Boy

Tuesday 9 February 2010

Forget the movie, we're here to talk about the music.

Er. Not as good as The Hour of the Bewilderbeast; better than Have You Fed the Fish?

I like when he brings in the swirling three-four time waltz-y stuff, but there's nothing on this album that I can name. Or hum.

Nick Hornby had a lot to say about one of the songs in his book 31 Songs (which I recommend), but he had personal reasons (apart from the obvious).

Actually, I take some of this back. I like River, Sea, Ocean. But he does this better on Bewilderbeast.
