Today's "Best Song Ever"

The Knife "Marble House"

The antiquated technology of a CD-Walkman or Discman seems to have more trouble with cellphone related interference than my iPod ever did. This almost caused me to throw my week old cell phone out the window of the Staten Island ferry as it was clouding up the sound of "Marble House" one of my favorite tracks from The Knife's Silent Shout.

If the best modern contemporaries for the Knife are Annie's intelectual cheese pop and Mu's mutant disco, "Marble House" sits decidedly closer in the Annie category. Which fits me just fine. I'm a sucker for a good melody.
