Just listened to Andrew Bird's latest CD, Noble Beast. It sounded like Roy Orbison meets Enigma to me in ways I can't quite pin down (probably because I've never taken any music appreciation courses). The music is absolutely beautiful! Some of the lyrics are a little odd for my taste, but I really connected with "Effigy" which is both reminiscent of and the antithesis of a sixties protest song. Such depth. "When you learn to burn an effigy, it should be of a man who's lost his way." And then, "It could be you, it could be me."
