dear tom,
you are too cool for school, dude. anyone who answers this when asked if the car is generally a good place to write gets a gold star in my books.
“A good one. You’re enclosed, you’re alone, you’re quiet. Perfect. There’s a feeling of a vanishing point. And you’re moving, like a song moves as it’s going through the tape machine. It’s like combing your hair with the highway.” source: pitchfork
it’s like combing your hair with the highway. AWESOME! my dad used to tell me how amazing you were when i was a teenager but i didn’t believe him. all i heard was noise when i listened to your music. after all these years, i finally hear the poetry behind your words. i may not always digg your melodies, but your words are all the music i need to hear. you are the king of quirks, my man, and this new album is no exception. cheers!
