Emo lumberjacks?
Isn't three guitars kind of overkill?
Long-haired, flannel-wearing falsettos?
Whiny Nirvana?
Seriously, is there like some beard requirement?
I sort of like the song "White Winter Hymnal" [video above] because it reminds me of Joan Baez or Peter, Paul, and Mary songs my Dad used to sing me as lullabies that were really just sad and/or scared the crap out of me (cf. "Puff the Magic Dragon," "Where Have All the Flowers Gone?," "Blowing in the Wind," "What Do Ye Do With a Drunken Sailor?", all of which make me want to start crying for some odd reason [well, except for maybe the last]). ...Actually, if it reminds me of all those other minor-keyed songs, maybe I don't like it that much after all.
I confess myself confused. Though perhaps that's my dad's fault.
*Also, the guy on Burn Notice seems like a poor man's Guy Pearce. Thoughts?

i like he doesn't know why. i was really into them, but they've been overplayed, sadly. i blame apple. even though i don't think they used them in anything. it's still apple's fault.
It's like if Peter, Paul and Mary had weird Nirvana babies whose kooky Aunt Joan Baez who forced them to sing Frère Jacques rounds over and over to get their breakfast of oat mush.
