Obsessive compulsive behavior
Okay, so I'm slightly obsessive compulsive. When I need to veg, I watch the same movies over and over. I won't list them because they're mostly guilty pleasures, but now that I think of it, they're probably listed in my profile. Yikes. Sad times. Anyway, the reason I'm mentioning this is because I'm currently OBSESSED with a Decemberist song called The Mariners Revenge. Now, the Decemberists are not a new band. My friends have been telling me how great they are for a while now. But sometimes it takes me a while to come around. Well. I've come around. At least to this song. When I listen to it, I listen to it three times in a row and it's around nine minutes long! That's quite a commitment. But it's just so well written. If I were web savvy, I'd post the MP3 right here. But I'm not, so you'll have to google it yourself!
To the three people who might read this, you might have already heard this song, but if you haven't...
Brad: you'll like the very English lyrics including words like magistrate and priory.
Amie: you'll like the history and storytelling.
Jeff: you'll like the sea shanty feel to the song (I don't know if this is true, but let's pretend it is!)
Cheers!

You've already heard the song! But the part that you like is the dramatic drum beats between verses :)
