Song obsessions are those songs that we listen to on repeat. I noticed that my obsessions are often a week long. I also thought that other people might have similar obsessions. I’ve collected a panel of a few like-minded individuals and gotten their “song obsessions of the week.” Quite often it’s easy to explain why the song is good; it’s much hard to explain why we’re obsessed. Maybe you’ll become obsessed with one of these.

Adrian (me):
Almeda Riddle – Bury Me Beneath the Willow (mp3) (buy)

Coming home from work today I just felt like hearing this beautiful song by one of the best voices of the American South, Almeda Riddle three or five times. It’s on of my all time favorite songs. It’s just so pretty and melancholy.

Natalie:
Tilly and the Wall – The Freest Man (mp3) (buy)

I pretty much forgot this song existed until a friend put it on at a party last weekend. And then I remembered that I loved it.
