More Jets to Brazil...

To add to the last entry, you can stream every Jets to Brazil song for free on the official Jets to Brazil fan-site. Here is a link to free Jets to Brazil enjoyment. If you find yourself short of time, and need to pick and choose which songs to hear, my top 5 picks are the following (in no particular order):
1. Cat Heaven (take notice of the subtle but well implemented string arrangement)
2. In the Summer's When You Really Know
3. One Summer Last Fall (the first song of theirs I ever heard)
4. Psalm
5. Perfecting Loneliness (they sample the moon landing at the end; genius)

What I think I love most about Blake Schwarzenbach's style is his use of parallelism and rhyme in his writing. Very passionate and intelligent.
