i finally got around to downloading the first joel plaskett album (in need of medical attention). it's really like... ideal. i don't know. it's so nice. it's all solo-y and low-fi and acoustic and pretty. his newer album (down at the khyber) is a lot more rawk-y and he has a band and whatnot. the band kicks ass live, by the way. they played a bunch of the songs off this album but i had only heard one of 'em. not this one:

doctor don't worry
ignore my depression
i am alone
but within her possession
she's taken my heart
and left the incision
though i'll never heal
i admire that kind of precision
she took me high as the mountains
left me blue as the sea
well she made a wreck out of me.

it's weird because half of that verse is out of an old Thrush Hermit song called "darling don't worry". but this song is much more pretty.
