It's spring break. I'm at my parents' house.

Daniel Merriweather and Adele, "Water and a Flame"
On: Whatever Daniel Merriweather's debut album will be called (??????)
Why I'm surprised I like this song: Because Perez Hilton recommended it...and while I love his commentary of fashion, movies, politics and Young Hollywood's sexuality, I usually hate his music picks because they're always generic Europop...but lo and behold, he picked a good one. I'm picky about my Britt soul singers, but Adele is one that have loved from the get-go because 1) she's fat 2) she's proud of being fat 3) she really can sing 4) she calls her music "heartbroken soul"... I'd pass her the millennial blue-eyed soul baton over Amy Winehouse (who would most likely grind it up and snort it) or Dufffy any day. Daniel Merriweather...not so much. He didn't blow me away with his Ronson collaboration remix of "Stop Me If You've Heard This One Before" (did Morrissey ever say if he liked that track?), so I haven't really been anticipating his debut album. I'll probably look into it now because of this track. I think it's become painfully obvious that I like break-up songs, and this one is well-written and hook-y.
Best lyric: I like the beginning..."Seven days has gone so fast/I really though the pain would pass/ It's been nearly an hour since I thought of you/ But you're not answering your phone/ I'd settle for a busy tone/ At by that I'd know that you're OK/ A girl like you aint busy anyway."
Just my two cents: I'm willing to bet some serious cash that, once they hear this track, Beyonce and Justin Timberlake will huddled together in a studio, tinker with the lyrics and try make this a hit single for themselves.
