I’ve been in a very hectic, overloaded, somewhat chaotic state as of late (and by ‘as of late’ I mean months). I needed to slow down and just fall in-love with the world again and I needed some theme music to help me do this. Something I could play late at night whilst writing that wouldn’t be intrusive but move me along gently. And perhaps, if possible, swoon just a little.

Ingrid Michaelson’s The Way I Am worked perfectly this but I was in need of more than a 2 minute song to cancel out the craziness of two months. Searching her on iTunes lead me to her duet Sky with Joshua Radin. So I started previewing his music and adding each song to the cart – something I never do. But sure enough I had added his entire album.

The best way for me to describe is softly sweet. It’s not sickly, not syrupy. It’s not overloaded or underdone. It’s just perfectly charming, sweet music to remind me of simpler times, of prettier times and that swooning by music is indeed, possible.
