st. vincent :: "the party"

i first listened to st. vincent on a train going from arcachon to bordeaux in the summer of '07. i remember playing "marry me" (off of marry me) over and over and over again. something about annie clark's voice combined with the lyrical content and the gentle glock and bells in the background felt very apropos as i rest my head against the glass window and stared at the grass and hills and little towns.

i've loved st. vincent ever since, but never has one of her songs resonated so profoundly with me until "the party."
