chris isaak is one of my heroes and for some reason i never thought to cover him until now ~ it’s a heartbreak song so i thought it’d only make sense to release it around v-day 💔

i became obsessed with Todd's album Healing in 2022, and the three parts of the title song especially resonated thematically with where i was at in my life that year. i wanted to make my own cover version to embody that resonance and pay homage to the original production, which IMO was incredibly ahead of its time both in vision and scope. the album pretty much foreshadowed the progression of music technology into today's environment of singer/songwriter/producers working alone with DAWs and bedroom setups, being a one man studio album for everything except mastering i think and this was 40+ years ago. i'm not a singer so i shopped the instrumental around to some folks i knew for years until i met my friend Mollie in school last semester and found out that she's actually a sick singer. the song won't be up on streaming/bandcamp until mid-march but y'all can listen with the link early since y'all are chill

i made a playlist of some heavy hitters. sometimes you can just tell an artist covers a song and you know that it's because, in a different universe, they would have written it themselves. sometimes they take a bad/mediocre song and you realize that it pretty was good all along. sometimes someone will sing a song and you can hear the reverence in their voice and it makes you love the music with them. its incredible really. i like the idea of sharing in the act of creation like that. favs on the playlist are stevie wonder, lianne la havas and michael cera palin

The only way to make a Smiths song more emotional and raw is to have Jeff Buckley cover it

pro tip, dreams don’t always make sense - so when weird/bad stuff happens, you can shrug it off and be like wow what a weird dream bro 🤷
