TW Walsh - "Struggle and Strife".
"Struggle and Strife" is exactly itself, each of its stanzas telling themselves. Rare these days that you hear a song that does this and is also excellent, beautiful. Here is a recording that feels like part of a life. A drawing that looks like a photograph. Bruce Springsteen had a dream of a song and he woke up and he wished he could remember them, those perfect verses; wished he could go into his studio room and press a button on a panel and put those flawless, melancholy lines onto hissing magnetic tape.
[thank you TW Walsh for sending me your outstanding record / buy]
It does not have the rosy intimacy of "Adorn", but it has hook hook hook, singalong and rumpapumpum, these pulleys of sighing and crave, up down down. This song will not make a paradise but it will secure one, chains gold garlanding the gates.
