Spoon - Everything Hits At Once

I love this song, always have. I love the organ, I love the guitar, I love the piano, I love the bass. Spoon are one of those bands that always come on at the right time when my itunes is on shuffle mode. They have really solid albums that are all underrated. Spoon should be bigger in Australia than they actually are. This track is off their 2003 album Girls Can Tell. The album has a bunch of other shining tracks too which I would put up there as some of my favourites (Take the Fifth, Believing is Art, 1020AM).

To be honest I hadn't seen the video clip until searching for it tonight whilst writing this entry. I like it a lot, but I am always biased to animation.

My favourite part of the band Spoon other than their great music and ability to write songs about the most inane things (eg. give me back my japanese cigarette case or fitted shirt) is their great band name. The name Spoon is a reflection about what their music is all about.

The chorus says it all

"Everything hits at once
What we need is just what we want
I go to sleep but think that you're next to me
I go to sleep and think you're next to me"
