You Must Be out of Your Mind

Gonna soundtrack the day with some silly, sappy (but lyrically clever!) #IndiePop

Probably been over a decade since I've run through The Magnetic Fields - 69 Love Songs.
Still a wonderful collection of tunes.

"As it turns out, what records you like is one of the most important things about you. If you grow up in a basement on an Amish farm and you have no access to radio, you are going to have a very constricted idea of music and the musical spectrum, and not coincidentally, a very restricted idea of what that would mean for [your] identity. I think that people form their identities largely through the arts, correctly, and music is an important part of that."

Surely there must be a collaboration out there between #TorquilCampbell and #StephinMerritt and I want to hear it.
