Over the last two weeks I've daily observed the tree out my kitchen window. Slowly it has said good bye to it's leaves. It's now a naked tree, looking well under-dressed in cool the Wellington breeze.
I really love Autumn. Tea. Toast. Scarves. Trees. Leaves. Puddles. These are all very good things. There is something to be said about how music can capture a moment in time, a feeling, or, a season. I've had a bit of a revival with Liam Finn over the last few weeks. You could say after first hearing him a couple of years ago, I've grown into his sound. He just hits the Autumn nail on the head for me. The moody piano, the tinkly electric moments, the whelming choir- so good. His whole album 'I'll be Lightning', is bliss.
You should probably go out and buy the album or come to my house and listen to it because youtube is not fronting up with a decent recording for many of the songs. However, this is a bit of gold:

Happy last few days of Autumn.
