I didn't get too much music for Christmas this year but I'm not complaining...what I did get is awesome...My favorite by far is
Dan Wilson's
Free Life and particularly the song "Breathless."
Dan
was is the lead singer of the great band
Semisonic and since they
broke up went into semi-retirement he has been keeping himself busy by writing half of the The Dixie Chicks
album of the year and putting our his first solo album. Produced by Rick Rubin, each track is great. I particularly love these lyrics from "Breathless":
"Your voice is echoing again / through catacombs inside my mind/
and I've been dreaming of revenge / to make you love me more than even you can try"
