Well well, the king is back! and what better way to get back from vacation and start off with him. A quick info if you have been away on a space trip, stuck with your old cds for the last 1-2 years, there's a new music genre labelled the "New Weird America", it's a retake on psychedelic folk music of the 60s and 70s. (You're lucky if you have been on an acid trip for the last 30 years, you'll think nothing has changed!) Anyways, Devendra is one of the most accessible (so long Beatles!) versatile and sincere songwriter I've ever listened to, his mind seems to be sparkling with ideas for little folk-pop songs, and his voice!! You've got to hear his gentle voice. Here's a silly pop song that has a very oldschool bluesy feeling, and funny lyrics like "If i lived in China, I'd have some Chinese children, but out of my toes my little black baby grows, and that's my fact!"
