debsIt's Supernatural night once again, so I will put up another one of my SPN songs.
I talked about The Mountain Goats last year and while I usually try not to repeat artists (Josh Ritter always excluded), this particular song embodies what I wanted for season six. It's from their latest album, The Life of the World to Come. A lot of people don't like concept albums. I am not one of those people. The theme of this album is on the surface very clear-- they've named all of their songs after verses from the bible--but the different interpretations of these short passages are each stark and illuminating in their own ways. The passage from which this song took it's name & inspiration reads as follows:
The sound/feel of this song is what I wished for our current season. So far these wishes have gone unfulfilled. I hold out hope.
"Psalm 40:2" by The Mountain Goats
