Tom McRae/Just like blood¶
This is the first CD that I actually pulled out of the drawer. My own drawer. And officially it’s not my CD either. It belongs to someone else.
Nonetheless it’s a fantastic album. I’ve chosen it randomly for having some background music for a dinner a couple of weeks ago. Damn, it was hard focussing on the delicious food instead (not so hard to focus on my dinner partner, though…).
Tom McRae played himself easily into my playlist. I’m actually surprised. Other songs from other albums are quite pop-ish, I think - too much for my taste. But this one I like. Really like it.
The album starts slow, is speeding up then in the middle and coming to a calm end. Almost perfect for the background music during a dinner as I’ve tried - just almost, because it’s still too good, the music too catchy to ignore it and being able to press it into the back. I’m not sure if I’ve heard a couple of songs before and every time I listen to the album it’s getting harder to say. My brain starts to being fuddled and is struggling to separate between real memories and some I’d like to have - so I’m really not sure if some of the songs just have always been there or if they just fit right into my taste of music…
