Neko Case's album won't be released until Tuesday. But I'm wearing out the grooves at the npr.org site where they're previewing it.
It's an exclusive first listen. The whole album is there but this is my pick fave. Lyrically, it is one of the most unusual love songs you may ever encounter.
This Tornado Loves You (excerpt)
…I have waited with a glacier's patience
Smashed every transformer with every trailer until nothing was standing
Sixty-five-miles wide
Still you are nowhere, still you are nowhere
Nowhere in sight
Come out to meet me, run out to meet me
Come into the light…
