sugar tongue
music, pictures, recording April 19th, 2009The Indigo Girls were interviewed on NPR this morning. Naturally, they also took the opportunity to play a couple of songs, one of which was “Closer to Fine” and the other was this one. . .
. . .called “Sugar Tongue.” Loveitloveitloveitloveit.
It was just the two women and their guitars, and it was absolutely stellar. This version has the electric piano, too, which is okay and all, but I found this acoustic version much more compelling than the ‘rock’ version from the CD (with the drums and everything), but discussing why I feel that way is actually a huge story in itself, all about music production, and the way I think about instrumentation and creating parts and textures, and all that kind of stuff.
That would be much too long a discussion, especially for a simple little entry saying that I love this song and that I want to share it with you.
