Loving loving loving CK's Mood Swings. Seems to be the perfect music to blast while packing up my apartment (the TCB tune makes me laugh, and Ella makes me long to abandon all responsibilities and take off for the lake . . . Elvis makes me long for my slutty days . . . heh.) But really, I have a soft spot for cheesy salsa music, and that Throwing Muses tunes was an ANTHEM for me in my troubled teen years. I love the dyad idea, and it works particularly well when we don't actually believe the words they're singing (i.e. the "pissed" or "lonely" dyads). I don't listen to Gram Parsons much these days, but now that I hear him again in this song it reminds me how much Wilco conjures his sound. Who is that singing backup? Lovely.
