Single: Jose Gonzalez - Crosses
Jamie Kohns on April 28th, 2005
I wasn’t sure really what to think of this one when I first heard it a couple weeks ago, but somehow, it keeps getting arranged in my iPod just after the new Mountain Goats single Dilaudid (read below) that I’m really loving, and as tense and immediate as Dilaudid is, Crosses breathes calmly in its haunting beauty. Then, Gonzalez played live on Zane Lowe’s show Tuesday, and played Crosses live. I’ve just not been able to get it out of myhead since then, and that’s really quite okay, because it’s a great song. I eagerly await the US release of Gonzalez’s album.
