I am alternating between singing hymns with my roommates and listening to Mountain Goats songs. "I hope you die, I hope we both die. . ." It's a weird combination. I've been on a Mountain Goats kick this week, listening to the four songs I have on my iPod over and over. I take back all the bad things I may have said about them. Nobody sings break-up like John Darnielle.
Here: listen to No Children from Tallahassee, the song that sparked my Mountain Goats revival.
