Song of the Week



Build A Rocket Boys!

You stuck a pin in the map I was in, and this is a note from the roadside. During a rainy Memorial Day weekend, some music best captures the companion feelings of looking back and going home. The D Man was inspired by Elbow's "Dear Friends," the last track on Build A Rocket Boys! It is a beautiful, traditional British pop song, expertly crafted, and a great closer to the opening magic of "Lippy Kids." The D Man is grateful for all those that have gone before him, and those stars that he currently navigates home by.
