Perhaps we should change the title of this thread to "Shearwater/Michael McDonald Discussion".

I'll reach out to a mod

This. "Animal Life" is one of those songs like the potato chip where you can't just eat one. I don't think I've ever listened to it without listening to it 3 or 4 more times in a row. And then the rest of the album is so solid, too.

Although if I ever get to listen to Rook on an overcast day in Norway, just sitting and looking out over the fiords, then maybe that will surpass it. Something about that album just screams "listen to me on an overcast day in Norway, overlooking a fijord."

I just listened to that - I fail to really see much similarity in their voices at all.

also, I can't properly describe how much I love this track:

The comparison to Talk Talk I get, but Michael McDonald is a pretty silly one.

But what did you think of the video/song? Pretty awesome eh?

This is the correct response to this song. The only response. Only, only.

Elfa and I are the ones who know. We are winners in music listening and life.
