I bought Ben Kweller’s first album because there was a bit of a vibe about him and most of it coming from Jack White of white Stripes if I recall. The CD was alright but not something that captured my CD player. Neither did the next album. But I bought it because my wife Liz really liked the first, while I couldn’t really be bothered with Mr. Kweller at all. But all the time he was creeping into my mind courtesy of Liz.
I’m watching an ad on TV for Ray Bans and I know the song but I can’t quite make out who it is, but loved the song. Ben Kweller. Eventually I started to like his music. Enough that when he came to play the corner I was willing to take Liz along. I wasn’t expecting much but it was great. I knew all the songs. Maybe I had been slowly brainwashed but it was just a fantastic concert full of great songs. This tune was the climax. The whole crowd joined in the chorus which went on forever.
I wait…I wait…for something good…. For something great!
Don't we all!
