the mile

I like everything about this.


I like how Stu Larsen kinda holds his mouth in a funny way when he sings,
how the dude playing violin is wearing TOMS.

I like how way the camera blurs and changes focus,
how the couple watching on are so stoked to have stumbled upon such joy
'wholy shit...where's the money jar? where's the money jar? it's for pleasure, it's for pleasure'

I bet this made their night.
I like it.


From the little I know, Stu Larsen seems to be a bit of a nomad/hobo kind of character.
Traveling round, making music, thinking thoughts.
As a hoarder and homebody, I find what he has to say thought provoking.

'I've only got one pair of shoes,
 to comfort these weary feet,
 cos a man who has too much,
 is like a song without a beat,
 left feeling incomplete'

This tune and this lyric has been stuck between my ears for a little over a month now, what does it make you think about?

If you are digging, you can download a couple of songs for free here.

Happiness to you all.
