| Info | This song's sense of strained optimism, of hope in the face of overwhelming sadness, is almost impossibly gorgeous. Everything floats: Curtis Mayfield's coo, the bluesy guitar, the lighter-than-air strings. When I die and I'm walking toward a faraway glimmer of light, I want this to be the soundtrack. --Tom Breihan |
