“Lost my valentine/You could never keep my meaning straight/And I won't wait in line/For you to give me any time of day.”
Simple, catchy and beautiful. California singer-songwriter Van William (neé Pierszalowski) took advantage of not just touring with the Swedish songbirds known as First Aid Kit, but bringing them aboard to help make his Big Song that much bigger. We may never hear from Mr. Pierszalowski again, but this 2017 track is destined to stand the test of time.
Revolution – Van William (ft. First Aid Kit)
The horns really add a lot to the track. And that reminds me of Okkervil River, one of my fave bands.
Everytning First Aid Kit touches turns in to gold. Saw Van Williams open for FAK in Berlin a few years back. Got the album sign.
