David Grey, er, Gray
As if Mumbai needed any more reason to be depressed after the dastardly acts of terrorism, I had to listen to David Gray's songs yesterday. Can't stop listening even today. For all its folksy-cutesy, lyrical genius, David Gray has the most depressing songs on the planet. I'm not even going to listen to Alibi - I was in SUCH a funk the last time (last year) i listened to that song and watched the video. But even his other songs are wonderfully depressing - check out Babylon, The One i Love, Lately among others. David has such a great voice, though. And to be fair, it would be wasted on bubblegum happy pop.
