"we are all a little weird and life's a little weird, and when we find someone whose
weirdness is compatible with ours, we join up with them, and fall in mutual
weirdness, and call it love."

Mumford & Sons

My brother and I keep up an ongoing battle. It has various names but inevitably boils down to a argument over who has found the most music for the other person's enjoyment. "I found Modest Mouse" I yell. "You know I gave you all of Bright Eyes" he retorts. It's never-ending, amusing, good old sibling rivalry.


No matter who is ahead at any given time (not that anyone is keeping score, as they say) we still share music, and often like similar things. One major difference: I listen to songs, Lincoln listens to artists. He is devoted to them as if one great song must make all their songs equally great. He is not of the era of the one hit wonder. He hates using my iPod because I have 450 artists and 473 songs, only slightly more than one song per artist.

Here is a recently shared artist: Mumford & Sons. Linc maintains their entire album is good, but I've only had opportunity to acquaint myself with two songs in between study sessions. Here is their song The Cave which is not only alternative, and catchy, but also has a pretty interesting music video along with the tunes. Enjoy!
